When receiving a request for the wireless communication service in the first network by a mobile switch center (MSC), at least one instruction is obtained to grant or deny the wireless communication service from a first control device in the second network, the first control device providing the instruction based on its communication to a management subsystem for the control of the wireless communication service. If the wireless communication service is granted, a second control device in the first network controlled by the first control device allows the MS to execute the wireless communication service with a receiver. If the wireless communication service is denied, the second control device in the first network controlled by the first control device prohibits the MS to execute the wireless communication service with the receiver, wherein the first and second control device communicate with each other using a predetermined protocol in…
