摘要:
In a telephony communication system, mobile devices request access to packet-based networks using network access requests that identify access point names associated with the networks. The mobile devices and an operator network providing access to the networks support the use of virtual access point names within network access requests. These virtual access point names need not correspond to any existing networks. Rather, network access requests incorporating virtual access point names indicate actually requested access point names within other fields of the network access requests.

A method of load balancing network access requests comprises receiving a network access request from a serving node linked to a radio access network. The network access request identifies a mobile node receiving wireless service from the radio access network and identifies a data network to which the mobile node has requested access. The network access request requests a communication channel with the serving node for transporting data communications between the mobile node and the data network. The method further comprising determining one or more gateways providing access to the data network, selecting one of the gateways, and forwarding the network access request to the selected gateway.

In a telephony communication system, an operator network provides access to data networks through gateways. The gateways provide access in response to network access requests from equipment such as mobile devices. The mobile devices and gateways providing access to the networks support service-based network access requests. These service-based network access requests permit networks to manage user access based on particular services requested.

Providing accounting services for a communication device includes receiving at a support node a context request to create a communication context for the communication device. An accounting request is sent to an accounting server, where the accounting request initiates accounting for the communication device. The support node waits for an accounting response from the accounting server, where the accounting response indicates that the accounting server is operational. The communication context is created for the communication device only if the accounting response is received from the accounting server.

摘要:
A system and method are described for generating a unique name for a particular subordinate resource of a computer system having a plurality of subordinate resources associated with superior resources. A superior resource is identified that is associated with the particular subordinate resource, and the name of that superior resource is ascertained. A portion of the superior resource name is selected and combined with a unique counter value from a global counter, where the global counter provides a different counter value to each subordinate resource of the plurality of subordinate resources. In this manner, the generated subordinate resource name for the particular subordinate resource is unique across all subordinate resources of all superior resources, not only across subordinate resources of one of the superior resources.
