Abstract
A method for managing services for a network service provider includes the steps of receiving a Feature Request Message from a switching node associated with a mobile station within a non-circuit switched network at a registration node. The Feature Request Message includes a code for activating a feature within the registration node enabling connections to the non-circuit switched network. A service request is received for providing a network service to the mobile station at the registration node. The service request is routed to the switching node associated with the non-circuit switched network responsive to the feature within the registration node enabling connection to the non-circuit switched network being activated.
