FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: terminal can perform registration using a location server if the terminal determines that it can not be normally accessible for the location server. In order to perform registration, the terminal can identify itself for the location server, trigger mutual authentication of the terminal and location server and provide an internet protocol (IP) address of the terminal for the location server. The terminal can perform registration using the location server every time the IP address changes and/or periodically every time the timer runs out. The terminal can set the timer to a value received from the location server. The location server can use the IP address to send the terminal messages for network-initiated location services.
EFFECT: improved location procedure.
