Abstract
A method and apparatus for managing service lists receives a service list and a security layer identifier at a device. The service list comprises at least two service identifiers. The method and apparatus determines whether the security layer is authorized for the device, and, for each service identified in the service list, when the security layer is authorized for the device the method and apparatus acquires each service in the service list that is not already installed in the device and enables each service in the service list that is not already enabled in the device.
Claims10
A method, comprising:
- receiving at a device a service list and a security layer identifier, wherein the service list comprises at least two service identifiers and wherein the security layer identifier is a global value for all services in the service list;
- determining whether the security layer identifier corresponds to a global service security authorization value stored in the device;
- and
- for each service identified in the service list, when the security layer identifier corresponds to the global service security authorization value stored in the device:
- acquiring, by the device, each service in the service list that is not already installed in the device and
- enabling, by the device, each service in the service list that is not already enabled in the device.
A device, comprising:
- A processing system comprising one or more microprocessors;
- and
- a receiver coupled to the processing system that receives a service list and a security layer identifier, wherein the service list comprises at least two service identifiers, wherein the security layer identifier is a global value for all services in the service list, and wherein the processing system
- determines whether the security layer identifier corresponds to a global service security authorization value stored in the device, and
- for each service identified in the service list, when the security layer identifier corresponds to the global service security authorization value stored in the device:
- acquires each service in the service list that is not already installed in the device and
- enables each service in the service list that is not already enabled in the device.
