Abstract
The present invention is related to a method of configuring an interface between a serving GPRS support node and a base station system. Allocation (401) of a new network service entitiy identifier is requested. In response to said request, a new network service entity identifier is automatically allocated (402) according to a predefined rule ensuring that the new network service entity identifier is unique within the serving GPRS support node. Data structures in the serving GPRS support node and the base station system are automatically initiated (403) by registering the allocated new network service entity identifier in said data structures.
