Abstract:
    In the method of the invention new devices are discoveried in a device management system in a mobile telecommunication network. The system comprises a device management server side application and a device management client side application and databases. The method is mainly characterized by the combined steps of detecting a new device active in the mobile network, detecting information of handset capabilities of said device, downloading of update information to said device on the basis of the terminal capabilities of said new device, and alerting said device to connect to the device management server in order to start a device management session. The device management system of the invention is mainly characterized by a component for detection of new devices active in the mobile network, a database implementing a device identity repository, a database implementing a repository of handset capabilities, a component for downloading update information to devices in the network, and a component for server initiated management alert.
