Abstract
A method and arrangement in a User Terminal (UT) for updating an operational parameter in the UT, the method comprising: to register, for at least one software module in the UT, a corresponding validator and/or a corresponding consistency verifier to a proxy module in the UT, wherein the validator is adapted to validate parameter syntax and wherein the consistency verifier is adapted to verify parameter consistency; to receive, from a Service Provider (SP), an operational parameter to be updated in the UT; and to check syntax validity and consistency of the received operational parameter which is based on each validator and/or each consistency verifier registered to the proxy module.
Claims22
A method in a User Terminal (UT) for updating one or more operational parameters in the UT, the method comprising:
- upon reception of a discovery message from a proxy module in said UT, registering, by at least one software module in said UT, a corresponding syntax validator and a corresponding consistency verifier to the proxy module in said UT, wherein said at least one software module is provided by a Service Provider (SP) that is external to said UT, and wherein said corresponding syntax validator is adapted to validate parameter syntax and said consistency verifier is adapted to verify parameter consistency, and further wherein said corresponding syntax validator and said corresponding consistency verifier are provided by said at least one software module;
- receiving, from the Service Provider (SP), said one or more operational parameters to be updated in said UT;
- and
- checking syntax validity and consistency of said received one or more operational parameters based on each of said syntax validator and each of said consistency verifier registered to said proxy module.
A User Terminal (UT) adapted to update one or more operational parameters, the UT comprising:
- a memory comprising a communication module, a proxy module, and one or more software modules provided by a Service Provider (SP) that is external to said UT;
- and
- a processor communicatively coupled to the memory, the processor configured to execute:
- the communication module to receive said one or more new operational parameters from the Service Provider (SP);
- the proxy module to register, by at least one of the one or more software modules, a corresponding syntax validator and a corresponding consistency verifier, said corresponding syntax validator and said corresponding consistency verifier being provided by the at least one of the one or more software modules, said corresponding syntax validator is capable of validating operational parameter syntax and said corresponding consistency verifier is capable of verifying parameter consistency;
- and
- wherein the processor is further configured to execute the proxy module to check syntax validity and consistency of said one or more new operational parameters based on each of said corresponding syntax validator and each of said corresponding consistency verifier registered to the proxy module.
