    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for configuring route selection policies. A user device may send, to a computing device, a route selection policy request to update route selection policy rules for applications and/or services of the user device. The computing device may determine the route selection policy rules for the applications and/or services based on various criteria. The computing device may send the determined route selection policy rules to the user device. If the user device does not accept the determined route selection policy rules, the user device may send, to the computing device, a negotiation request to obtain other route selection policy rules for the applications and/or services.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices and computer-readable media for dynamic resource authorization in a communication network. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a device in a vendor network dynamically transmits a request to a network device in the vendor network according to a resource usage state in an operator network. In addition, the vendor and an operator negotiate on charging, so that resource requests and allocation are more reasonable, and the resource usage rate is improved. Furthermore, according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the operator further negotiates with a user on charging, so that the user is able to request and utilize a resource in a better manner.
