    摘要: A communication apparatus includes a processor and a memory. The processor executes computer-readable instructions stored in the memory. The instructions instruct the communication apparatus to establish a first network including the communication apparatus and a first device. The instructions instruct the communication apparatus to establish a second network including the communication apparatus and a second device. The instructions instruct the communication apparatus to determine a target IP address. Determining the target IP address includes identifying a particular IP address, which is an IP address of the communication apparatus used in the second type network. Determining the target IP address includes generating the target IP address to be within a particular range using the particular IP address. The particular range is a range of IP addresses that are not available in the second type network. The instructions instruct the communication apparatus to assign the target IP address to the first device.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide method and apparatus for exposing user equipment address information. A method performed by a method comprises receiving a first subscribe request for subscribing existing user equipment (UE) address information and/or UE address change information related to a network from an application function. The method further comprises obtaining the existing UE address information and/or UE address change information related to the network based on the first subscribe request. The method further comprises sending the existing UE address information and/or UE address change information related to the network to the application function.

    摘要: Systems, methods and devices for location-based services are disclosed in the present invention. A multiplicity of network devices, a database, and a server platform in network-based communication. The database stores a space-network model binding IP addresses and physical locations. The server platform is operable to generate at least one geofence in the space-network model and specify entitlements for the location-based services within the at least one geofence. The at least one geofence and specific entitlement are stored to the database. The multiplicity of network devices are configured to learn the space-network model and the at least one geofence and perform tasks based on the entitlements specified for the location-based services within the at least one geofence.

    摘要: A packet processing method, including a network node of an access network receiving a first packet sent by a user terminal, where the first packet is used to request an Internet Protocol (IP) address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server and the network node obtains a second packet, where the second packet includes the first packet, information about a port, and a Media Access Control (MAC) address of the user terminal, the port is a port through which the network node receives the first packet, and the second packet is a packet except a DHCP packet. Additionally, the network node sends the second packet to a controller.
