Abstract
Enhanced handling of device configuration data in wireless communication devices is provided herein. In one example, a method is presented that includes receiving data transferred by a device management node for incorporation into a node of a configuration data tree that stores device configuration data for the wireless communication device. The method also includes identifying the data as unable to be incorporated into the configuration data tree, and transferring a rejection notice for delivery to the device management node. The method also includes receiving a node addition instruction and responsively creating a new data tree that is populated with at least one blank node and is linked to a root node shared with the configuration data tree. The method also includes receiving again the data transferred by the device management node and responsively incorporating the data into the blank node of the new data tree.
