Claim:
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-useable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, cause a computing device to perform a method of dynamically updating a home agent with location-based information associated with a mobile device, thereby allowing a third party to determine a location of the mobile device, the method comprising: receiving a signaling message from the mobile device that includes a first identifier and the location-based information such that an approximate location of the mobile device can be determined by utilizing the location-based information; referencing a database that associates the first identifier with a second identifier; receiving a request to establish a new communications session with the mobile device, wherein the request is forwarded to the home agent; and communicating to the home agent the location-based information, thereby providing access of the location-based information to the third party, wherein the communicating includes, (1) communicating a transaction update to the home agent that includes the location-based information and the second identifier, wherein, based on the second identifier, the home agent populates a binding table with the location-based information, and (2) receiving a first acknowledgement from the home agent indicating that the table has been populated with the location-based information.
