摘要:
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for detecting a service data flow using a Gx rule are disclosed. According to one method, a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) node sends to a policy and charging enforcement function (PCEF) node, a Gx rule for triggering the PCEF node to generate a notification message upon initiation of a service data flow. The PCEF node receives and installs the Gx rule and uses the Gx rule to detect and report initiation of a service data flow.
摘要:
According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a method for communicating service data flow (SDF) event information. The method includes steps occurring at a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) node. The method also includes communicating, via an Rx interface, a request to a deep packet inspection (DPI) node to be notified when an SDF event occurs. The method further includes receiving notification from the DPI node that the SDF event has occurred.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for enhanced service detection and policy rule determination are disclosed. According to one method, a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) node requests, from a deep packet inspection (DPI) node notification of detection of traffic relating to a service. The DPI node identifies at least one traffic classifier usable to detect traffic corresponding to the service, uses the traffic classifier to detect traffic corresponding to the service, and notifies the PCRF of the detection and of the traffic classifier. The PCRF node receives the at least one traffic classifier, determines a policy rule based on the at least one traffic classifier, and communicates the policy rule to a policy enforcement node.
