8. The method according to claim 1, further comprising the step of checking whether the user had a valid registration before or not,
wherein in case the user had no valid registration before, in the generating step, the information that a registration is required is inserted into the warn information.
9. The method according to claim 1, further comprising the steps of
checking whether the user had a valid registration before or not and whether a de-registration of the user had been performed, and
wherein in case the user had a valid registration before and a de-registration of the user had been performed, in the generating step, the information that a re-registration is required is inserted into the warn information.
