Abstract:
A device may determine a resource identifier for accessing a segment of streaming media content. The device may determine that a signature associated with the resource identifier is not stored in memory. The signature may be generated based on a character string of the resource identifier. The device may request validation of the resource identifier based on determining that the signature is not in memory. The device may receive the signature associated with the resource identifier based on requesting validation. The device may store the signature based on receiving the signature. The device may request the segment of streaming media content using the resource identifier and the signature, stored in memory, to receive toll-free access to the segment of streaming media content.
Abstract:
A device can be configured to receive a transmission control protocol (TCP) packet from a user device and determine, based on data included in a header portion of the TCP packet, that the TCP packet includes a toll-free token. The toll-free token included in the TCP packet can be identified, an entity associated with the toll-free token can be identified, and an action can be performed based on the entity.
Abstract:
A device determines a connection status of a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) communication interface and a wireless Local Area Network (LAN) communication interface, and stores the connection status in a queue. The device waits, subsequent to storing the connection status, for expiration of a time delay; and retrieves, subsequent to the expiration of the time delay, the connection status or another connection status from the queue. The device sends, based on the retrieved connection status or the other connection status, a service validation request to a server associated with the PLMN, and receives from the server, in response to the service validation request, a validation response that authorizes service delivery to the device via a PLMN.
Abstract:
A native content handler in a user device, such as a smart phone, determines whether requested content may by delivered using special handling, such as prioritized or sponsored access. A listener of the content handler determines whether special handling may possibly be applicable to the content, and the listener modifies a universal resource locator (URL) associated with the content to mark the URL. An agent portion of the content handler exchanges data with a validation device to determine whether the user device is actually eligible to receive the content with the special handling. If the user device is eligible, the agent uses data provided by the validation device to obtain the content using the special handling.
Abstract:
A system may receive a content identifier corresponding to content to be accessed via a toll free data service (toll-free data service). The system may determine, based on the content identifier, whether a content provider device, associated with the content, is configured with a serving component associated with serving the content via the toll-free data service. The system may provide an indication of whether the content provider device is configured with the serving component. The content may be accessible via the toll-free data service when the content provider device is configured with the serving component.

The device may determine that a signature associated with the resource identifier is not stored in memory. The signature may be generated based on a character string of the resource identifier. The device may request validation of the resource identifier based on determining that the signature is not in memory. The device may receive the signature associated with the resource identifier based on requesting validation. The device may store the signature based on receiving the signature. The device may request the segment of streaming media content using the resource identifier and the signature, stored in memory, to receive toll-free access to the segment of streaming media content.
Abstract:
A device may receive campaign information for deploying a toll-free data service campaign. The campaign information may identify a total amount of data to be allocated for a toll-free data service associated with the toll-free data service campaign. The device may determine enforcement devices associated with the toll-free data service campaign, and may allocate a portion of data, of the total amount of data, to an enforcement device. The device may receive, from the enforcement device, data usage information that indicates an amount of the portion of data consumed during a first time period, by mobile devices associated with the enforcement device, in association with the toll-free data service campaign. The device may determine, based on the data usage information, an additional amount of data to be allocated to the enforcement device, and may allocate the additional amount of data to the enforcement device.
Abstract:
A network device receives a collection of technical steps for implementing a type of service campaign. The technical steps include application programming interface (API) level calls to a service provider network. The network device associates the technical steps with particular customer software, receives validation criteria for each of the technical steps, generates a diagnostic map of the technical steps for the particular customer software, and conducts, based on the diagnostic map, a test of the API level calls for the particular customer software to obtain test results. The network device receives a customer deployment record of changes occurring during software deployments for the service campaign for the particular customer software and receives a provider record of service provider changes to network level software that impact the service campaign for the particular customer software. The network device correlates the test results with the customer deployment record and the provider record.
