To simplify configuring WAP settings in a number of phones, all settings can be sent as an SMS
message to each phone. This makes it easy for an operator, a service provider or a company to
distribute settings for Internet/Intranet, and WAP, without having to configure each phone man-
ually. This also makes it easy to upgrade the services provided to the users, without the need for
users to perform any manual configuration.
• The OTA configuration message is distributed via SMS point-to-point
• The setup information is a binary encoded XML message, according to WBXML. To
receive information about OTA specifications, please contact your local Ericsson representa-
tive for consumer products. A configurator that utilizes OTA provisioning can be tested on
the Ericsson Mobile Internet
• The user is not alerted about new settings until the ongoing browsing session ends. Further-
more, settings are not changed during an ongoing browsing session
• The necessary user interaction is limited to receiving and accepting/rejecting the configura-
tion message, and selecting which WAP profile to allocate the settings to
• Security can be handled using a keyword identifier displayed on the screen as a shared secret
between the SMS sender and the receiver. It is important that the user has a way to verify
that the configuration message is authentic
To perform the WAP configuration of a single phone it is suggested to use the step-by-step WAP
configurator provided on the Ericsson Mobile Internet. The configurator utilizes OTA provi-
sioning, and it is available on http://mobileinternet.ericsson.com, no login required. The WAP
settings can also be customized by the operator.
A manual configuration is made using the menu system in the phone. This is described in the
User’s Guide.
