In some cases, the version (version) of a communication terminal is upgraded in order to improve its function. However, the communication procedure between the communication terminal and the communication network may not match due to the version upgrade. is there. Because of this,
When a plurality of communication terminals having different communication procedures coexist in a communication network, the communication network conventionally does not know what communication procedure each communication terminal has. In both cases (1) and (2), the communication network does not know how to process the communication, and therefore it may not be possible to make or receive calls to or from the communication terminal.
In particular, in a mobile communication terminal, in a destination communication network, if the communication network does not know the communication procedure of the mobile communication terminal, outgoing / incoming calls to the mobile communication terminal may be impossible.
