Abstract: A system may receive a request from the UE device to establish a session overser plane of a network; establish a session over the user plane in response to the request from the UE device; receive, at a first node, uplink IP data from the UE device over the session; redirect the received IP data at the first node to a second node for translating IP data to a T8 message; translate, at the second node, the redirected IP data to a first T8 message; and forward the first T8 message to an application server or an application function (AF) node.

Abstract: A user device may be provisioned with a list of paths for connecting to a network. A method may include determining that the user device has attached to a visited network and sending the visited network an indication of connectivity capabilities associated with the network. The method may include receiving an indication of one or more paths established from the visited network to the network based on capabilities of the visited network. The one or more paths may be included in the list of paths. The method may include transmitting data to or from the user device via a first path of the one or more paths.

Abstract: A network device may receive, a flow control request for a first device that is registered for an internet protocol (IP) pinhole service. The flow control request may include a device identifier associated with the first device and a private IP address. The network device may identify at least one of IP address information, port information, and pinhole rules. The network device may provide, to another network device, a flow control response that includes at least one of the IP address information, the port information, and the pinhole rules. The flow control response may cause the other network device to allow traffic flow through the firewall using at least one of the IP address information and the port information. The network device may provide a public IP address and a port identifier to a second device, allowing the second device to provide traffic to the first device.

Abstract: A device, located in a core network associated with a radio access network (RAN), may include a processor configured to expose services or capabilities to application servers outside the core network, wherein the device is located in a core network associated with a radio access network (RAN). The processor may be further configured to receive a subscriber identifier message from a gateway device that established a connection to a user equipment (UE) device via the RAN, wherein the subscriber identifier message includes information identifying the UE device; receive a request from an application server associated with the connection for the information identifying the UE device; and provide the requested information identifying the UE device to the application server, in response to receiving the request from the application server.

Abstract: A device may receive a request from a User Equipment (UE) device to enlist termination information for an application hosted on the UE device when either a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session or a Packet Data Network (PDN) session is established between the application and a network. In addition, the device may insert the termination information into a routing table on the device in response to receiving the request; receive data originating from the application on the UE device or from an application function (AF) node; translate the received data using the routing table; and forward the translated data to the application on the UE device or to the AF node.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network device may receive an identifier associated with an application server. The network device may associate the identifier with a service profile associated with a network slice based on a quality of service associated with the network slice. The network device may provide, to a device associated with the application server, information indicating that the identifier is associated with the service profile. The network device may receive address information associated with the application server. The network device may associate the address information with the service profile. The network device may provide service profile information to a security device included in a core network to cause the security device to forward traffic transmitted by the application server toward a destination via the network slice. The service profile information may include an identifier associated with the service profile, the identifier, and the address information.
