A method for use by an apparatus of a communication network comprises detecting (S22) that a user or user equipment attaching to the communication network belongs to a usage group, based on group identity information that is allocated to the user or user equipment and identifies the usage group, detecting (S24), based on the group identity information, whether or not a first rules function out of several rules functions has been allocated to another user or user equipment of the usage group, and in case it is detected that the first rules function has been allocated to another user or user equipment of the usage group, selecting (S26), for the user or user equipment, the first rules function.

There are provided measures for policy control interworking, such as for example for policy control interworking between mobile networks and fixed broadband networks, said measures exemplarily comprising exchanging, between a first policy decision point and a second policy decision point, supported policy control properties of a first policy enforcement point under control of the first policy decision point and supported policy control properties of a second policy enforcement point under control of the second policy decision point. An activation of one or more of supported policy control properties is essentially based on a consideration of both supported policy control properties of the first and the second policy enforcement points.

Various communication systems may benefit from improvements in communication flow. For example, a network may benefit from packet flow optimization. A method can include receiving a flow at an entity of a communication system having a virtualized control plane. The method can also include dynamically deciding how to route the flow to an entity selected from a group of entities comprising at least one virtualized part of an entity. The method can further include routing the flow as decided.

It is disclosed a method (and related apparatus) comprising establishing a control session by transmitting and receiving control session-related messages, transmitting restart information indicating a restart of a network element, receiving at least one protocol-related message of a first control session including session-related detail information, transmitting a restoration request message based on the session-related detail information, receiving at least one session parameter necessary for restoring the at least one first session, and restoring the at least one first session based on the received session-related detail information and the at least one session parameter. It is further disclosed a method (and related apparatus) comprising receiving restart information indicating a restart of a network element, processing at least one protocol-related message of a first control session to include session-related detail information, and transmitting at least one session parameter necessary for restoring the at least one first session, and the at least one protocol related message.
摘要:
It is provided an apparatus, comprising generating means adapted to generate detection charging information related to an application; informing means adapted to inform a rules function device about a detection charging capability, wherein the detection charging capability indicates that the apparatus comprises the generating means; detecting means adapted to detect a start of the application; indicating means adapted to indicate the start of the application to the rules function device.
摘要:
The invention relates to an apparatus and method for transmitting a request to control a multimedia priority service for a user from user equipment to a subscription profile repository, comprising transmitting the request from the user equipment to an intermediate node, and transmitting the request from the intermediate node to a subscription profile repository.

It is disclosed a method including receiving first address information relating to a terminal and a network traffic relay entity, obtaining second address information relating to the network traffic relay entity and a network traffic destination entity, and sending the first address information and the second address information to a controlling entity; and a method including receiving the first and second address information, generating policy information based on the received first and second address information, and monitoring network traffic based on the generated policy information.
摘要:
The present invention relates to networks, in particular to communication networks. Moreover, the present invention relates to a method, to network devices, to a computer program product and to a computer-readable medium for establishing a binding for separate sessions. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention there is provided a method for establishing a binding between a plurality of separate sessions, the method comprises storing a first identity of a first level, storing a second identity of a second level, providing a correspondence between the first identity and the second identity, extracting the second identity from a first message, retrieving the stored first identity on the basis of the extracted second identity and establishing a binding between a first session of the first level and a second session of the second level on the basis of the retrieved first identity.
