Re: [Geopriv] HELD: user-configured data

Hi Henning,

Just so I am 100% sure on what you are querying/asking about.
A device is able to use HELD to update its location in a LIS and the LIS would then validate the location and store it against the IP address of the device?

Is there an assumption that from that time forward that the location is statically bound to that IP address?
So, if the initial device, device-X, pushed something that bound IP address ABC to location EFG that this remains in the LIS. Then if device-X disconnects from the network, device-Y connects and allocated IP address ABC that it will then be at location EFG? The net result being that the LIS is populated via crowd-sourcing?

If the location could be different each time address ABC is allocated then I am not really sure why the device wouldn’t just keep the location in the device and send a PIDF-LO at INVITE or REGISTER time.

I am not necessarily opposed to the idea because I think I  only half understand the use case.

Cheers
James

That seems unlikely to me.  Further, in the VRS case, the device is provided by the same entity as the LIS provider, so even if it was a non-browser interface, it could update the existing database.
