摘要:
Systems and methods are provided for supporting multiple access point names for trusted wireless local area network (LAN.) In one method, the method includes receiving a packet at a mobile access gateway from a UE operating in a trusted wireless LAN, determining at the mobile access gateway an access point name (APN) associated with the received packet, and analyzing a binding update list (BUL) table to identify an IP address of the UE used by the determined APN. The method further includes modifying a source IP address of the received packet to the IP address of the UE used by the determined APN, and transmitting the packet to a home network associated with the APN.

An example method is provided and includes receiving a packet associated with a flow, determining a tunnel identifier for the flow, and determining a flow identifier for the flow. The method includes associating the flow identifier and the tunnel identifier to an Internet protocol (IP) address to generate a binding to be used for a network address and port translation (NAPT). In other embodiments, a routing decision is executed based on the binding between the identifiers and the IP address. The flow identifier can be a context identifier (CID), and the tunnel identifier can be a softwire tunnel ID. In yet other embodiments, the packet can be tagged as part of an encapsulation operation, which includes providing information about a network location at which the network address and port translation is to be executed.
摘要:
A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving a request associated with a flow over a wireless link, where the request specifies resource requirements for the flow. The method also includes mapping an Internet protocol (IP) flow description to a plurality of tunnel IP addresses, and mapping a framed IP address to an access point (AP) tunnel endpoint address in order to establish a quality of service (QoS) for tunneled traffic.

Techniques are provided for performing web authentication of mobile wireless devices that roam from a wireless wide area network to a wireless local area network. A redirect rule is invoked when a request is received from the mobile wireless device for world wide web access in order to obtain authentication for the mobile wireless device before permitting world wide web access. When a world wide web access request is received from the mobile wireless device, it is redirected to an authentication portal to allow a user of the mobile wireless device to enter user credentials to allow for world wide web access using the IP address.

In one embodiment, a method for providing access to wireless networks may include receiving, by a wireless network access provider from a user device, a request to access a wireless network. The method may include obtaining data representing a policy applicable to the access request, sending the access request, augmented with the policy, to an identity provider associated with the user and having no pre-existing relationship with the access provider, and receiving, from the identity provider, an access request response indicating whether or not the policy is met. The method may include communicating, to the wireless device, an indication that the access request has been accepted, if the policy is met, or an indication that the access request has been rejected, if the policy is not met. The access provider and identity provider may be members of an identity and access federation that communicate over a dynamically established secure connection.
摘要:
A method and apparatus are provided for managing radio access point (RAP) devices and enterprise controller devices in a wireless communication network. An enterprise controller device registers with a gateway device, and the enterprise controller device receives a registration request from multiple RAP devices that are serviced by the enterprise controller device. As the RAP devices register with the enterprise controller device, the enterprise controller device generates a list of the RAP devices registered with the enterprise controller. As the enterprise controller receives additional registration requests from additional RAP devices, the enterprise controller updates the list. The enterprise controller sends the list to the gateway device with which it registers so that the gateway device is aware of RAP devices serviced by the enterprise controller device. In this way, aggregated messages may be sent from the gateway device to the enterprise controller.

A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving a plurality of status signals, for a plurality of radio links, at a microwave device; detecting a bandwidth anomaly based on the status signals; and communicating a quality of service (QoS) control signal, which is based on the bandwidth anomaly, to a gateway coupled to at least one of the radio links.
