摘要:
One determines (101, 102) that a given wireless mobile two-way communications platform is updating its network location (using, for example, an 802.16(e)-compatible protocol) at a time when there is no downlink traffic to provide to the platform and at a time when the platform should conduct at least one of an authenticator relocation process and an Internet Protocol address renewal process. In response to such determinations, one then automatically provides (103) to the platform, as part of updating the network location for the platform, an indication (such as, for example, a downlink traffic pending (DTP) flag) that the platform has pending downlink traffic notwithstanding that there is, in fact, no downlink traffic to provide to the wireless mobile two-way communications platform. Subsequent to this, one can then automatically cause (104) the platform to effect at least one of the authenticator relocation process and the Internet Protocol address renewal process.
摘要:
A set of different communication flows (270-272) can be established between a set of end-user devices (210) and remote devices (265) through an intermediary node (225). For each communication flow (270-272), a flow-specific bearer (250) can be generated between the intermediary node (225) and a corresponding one of the remote devices (265). Each bearer (250) can have quality of service attributes that correspond to flow-specific quality of service attributes of the flow (270-272) to which the flow-specific bearer (250) corresponds. Communication can occur between each of the proximate end-user devices (210) and the remote devices (265) in accordance with the flow-specific quality of service attributes. The intermediate node (225) can direct the exchanged data between unique local communication links and corresponding ones of the flow-specific bearers (250).

摘要:
A communication system sets a media session between a first media gateway and a second gateway through a media gateway controller. The first media gateway receives a control address of the second media gateway from the media gateway controller. The first media gateway allocates media processor resources from a pool of media processor resources at the first media gateway and communicates transport information associated with the allocated media processor resources to the second media gateway. The first media gateway also receives transport information associated with allocated media processor resources of the second media gateway. The media session is then set up between the first media gateway and the second media gateway, using the allocated media processor resources of the media gateway and the allocated media processor resources of the second media gateway.
