You will go through the process. Here, the process of activating the environment of the packet data protocol started by the network is a packet data protocol (PDP) environment for the corresponding packet data protocol data unit (PDU) when the packet data protocol (PDP) data unit (PDU) enters the GGSN. When there is no Activation (Context Activation) information, the GGSN is a process for obtaining routing information of a subscriber International Mobile Station Identity (IMSI) for a packet data protocol data unit (PDU).

The process of activating the packet data protocol environment initiated by the network is a necessary function for the user to receive the data service required by the subscriber on a regular or irregular basis from the external service provider.

In addition, since the third generation asynchronous method provides packet reception, information of a subscriber who wants to receive a packet should be registered in GGSN in real time or in a batch operation.

However, at present, 3GPP IMT-2000 subscribers request the subscriber's desired inbound service for the inbound service, and the agent uses the gateway client terminal to provide information on the desired service (e.g., the subscriber's international mobile station identifier (IMSI). : International Mobile Station Identity), type of subscriber packet data protocol, subscriber IP address, access point name, service provider IP address, corresponding access point name ( Since a GPRS gateway supporting node address (GGSN Address), etc., which is in charge of the APN) service is received and stored in the gateway, there is a problem in that a process for receiving an incoming service cannot be processed in real time and in a batch operation.

The present invention has been proposed to solve the above problems, a mobile communication that can store the subscriber information in the GPRS gateway support node (GGSN) through real-time or batch operation without the need to manually receive subscriber data for the incoming service It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of automatically registering subscriber data in a system and a computer-readable recording medium recording a program for realizing the method.

That is, in the present invention, when a subscriber who wants to receive a data incoming service subscribes to the service through a distributor, information about a subscriber who has entered through the agency is set up in a subscriber data management gateway (Gateway) and is online or in a GPRS gateway support node (GGSN). An object of the present invention is to provide a method of automatically registering subscriber data for an incoming service of a mobile communication system that can be registered in a batch operation, and a computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for realizing the method.
