The present invention is a method for providing network access to a Mobile Terminal (MT) in a packet switched telecommunications network. An access- request is sent from a Gateway server to an Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) server for requesting network access for the MT. The access- request includes an Access Point Name (APN) for identifying a selected APN and a MT identity parameter for identifying the MT. The AAA determines whether or not the MT is authorized on the selected APN. If the MT is not allowed on the selected APN, the Gateway server selects a subsequent APN from a list of selectable APNs based on a generic APN. However, if the MT is allowed on the selected APN, the AAA server sends an access-accept message for indicating to the Gateway server that the MT is allowed on the APN combination.

L'invention concerne un procédé de fourniture d'accès réseau à un terminal mobile (MT) dans un réseau à commutation par paquets. Une demande d'accès part d'un serveur passerelle vers un serveur Authentication, Authorisation, et Imputation (Accounting) (AAA) pour l'accès réseau du MT, comprenant un nom de point d'accès (APN) qui permet d'identifier un APN spécifique et un paramètre d'identité MT qui permet d'identifier le MT. Le serveur AAA détermine si le MT est autorisé sur l'APN spécifique, et si la réponse est négative le serveur passerelle sélectionne un APN suivant dans une liste d'APN candidats sur la base d'un APN générique. Néanmoins, si le MT est autorisé sur l'APN spécifique, le serveur AAA transmet un message d'acceptation d'accès indiquant au serveur passerelle que le MT est autorisé sur la combinaison APN.
