Creating a Metanetwork
4/8/2010
Mobile Operator Service Traffic (MOST) requires that a new metanetwork be created in connection manager so that mobile operator services traffic will bind to the appropriate base connection and APN.
The following example shows how to create a metanetwork. In this example, after the metanetwork "ISP: MobileService" is created, MMS traffic "**mms://*MobileOperator.mms.com/*" will be mapped to it. This metanetwork can be reached through the "internet3.thephone-company.com" APN. When an application wants to exchange data, the APN will connect.
Here’s an example WAP Provisioning doc with the APN connection highlighted.
