Abstract

The telecommunications network has access switches and at least one nominal data base for mobile subscribers capable of accessing the network via several of the access switches. Each of the access switches has a table containing service data relating to fixed subscribers having terminals permanently connected thereto. The nominal data base contains, for each of the mobile subscribers, service data having the same nature as the service data relating to the fixed subscribers and mobility management data. The service data table of each access switch via which mobile subscribers can access the network receives, in addition to the service data relating to the fixed subscribers, service data relating to the mobile subscribers connected to the network via said access switch, which have been uploaded from the nominal data base during procedures to locate said mobile subscribers with the access switch.
