There is disclosed a security apparatus, for use in a wireless network comprising base stations that communicate with mobile stations, for preventing unprovisioned mobile stations from accessing an Internet protocol (IP) data network via the wireless network. The security apparatus comprises a database that stores a first server IP address of a first provisioning server in the wireless network, and a first controller for receiving a first IP data packet transmitted by a first mobile station, wherein the first IP data packet comprises a first source IP address and a first destination IP address. The first controller determines if the first mobile station is provisioned and transmits the first IP data packet to the IP data network if the first mobile station is provisioned. If the first mobile station is unprovisioned, the first controller transmits the first IP data packet to the IP data network if the first destination IP address matches the first server IP address and prevents transmission of the first IP data packet to the IP data network if the first destination IP address does not match the first server IP address.

There is disclosed, for use in a wireless network comprising a group of base stations that communicate with a group of mobile stations, an apparatus for automatically gathering configuration data associated with the mobile stations. The apparatus comprises: 1) a database for storing a plurality of mobile station configuration records, wherein each of the mobile station configuration records stores configuration data gathered from a selected one of the mobile stations; and 2) an update controller for transmitting to a first mobile station a mobile station configuration request message and for receiving from the first mobile station first configuration data transmitted by the first mobile station in response to receipt of the mobile station configuration request message. The update controller stores the first configuration data in a first configuration record.

There is disclosed a provisioning system for use in a wireless network comprising a group of base stations that communicate with mobile stations. The provisioning system provisions unprovisioned mobile stations and prevents unprovisioned mobile stations from accessing an Internet protocol (IP) data network through the wireless network. The provisioning system comprises a provisioning controller that retrieve provisioning data from a provisioning server associated with the IP data network and causes a first base station to transmit the retrieved provisioning data to a first unprovisioned mobile station in a first traffic channel established between the first base station and the first unprovisioned mobile station. The provisioning system prevents any unprovisioned mobile station from accessing the wireless network except by means of a traffic channel, thereby preventing the unprovisioned mobile station from making an unauthorized access to the Internet via a data call to a base station.

A device within an automobile comprises or includes a wireless communications controller which, upon detection of impact, attempts to establish a wireless communications link to each of any counterpart wireless communications controllers which are within vehicles also subject to a recent impact, and therefore presumably involved in the collision. Vehicle identification information and information collected regarding the collision, such as vehicle speed, location, direction of travel, impact direction and magnitude, point of impact, etc. , are automatically exchanged between vehicles involved in the collision and may be later retrieved from either vehicle, preserving objective information for accident reconstruction by police and insurance companies.

There is disclosed an interworking function unit for transferring data between a wireless network and an Internet protocol (IP) data network coupled to the wireless network. The interworking function unit comprises a protocol conversion controller that receives incoming data packets from the wireless network, wherein the incoming data packets are generated by a first mobile station and are formatted according to a protocol associated with the wireless network. The interworking function unit converts the incoming data packets to IP data packets formatted according to an Internet protocol of the IP data network. The interworking function unit also comprises a first security controller for preventing unprovisioned mobile stations from accessing the IP data network through the wireless network. The first security controller receives the IP data packets and replaces each original IP packet header with a replacement IP packet header containing the IP address of a provisioning server.
