Multimode mobile station includes mobile configuration manager, device
interface, and network interface to dynamically provision network
configuration for mobile TE2-type mobile terminals and accomodates
multiple protocols over multiple carrier access methods over U.sub.m
interface and multiple access methods over R.sub.m interface. A method
for communicating between endpoints, where a mobile node obtains a unique
configuration from a network for a managed device. The mobile node
dynamically provisions the configuration for the connected managed
device, in response to device request or network notice. The node adapts
messages over R.sub.m interface for TE2 signals and over U.sub.m
interface for a wireless protocol.
