Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a network device that receives a failure message from a mobility management entity where the failure message indicates that a first connection request from an application server to an end user device failed based on the end user device being in an inactive mode, where the network device provides to the application server a target time for transmitting a second connection request to the end user device, and where the providing of the target time to the application server causes the application server to cease transmitting connection requests to the end user device until the target time. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract:
A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, receive a subscription from an application server where the subscription identifies a session event and/or sub-events occurring in a communication session for which the application server requests user location information, provide subscription information based on the subscription to core network nodes of the mobile communications network, receive user location information from the core network nodes responsive to a detection of a triggering event corresponding to the session event of the subscription, and provide the user location information to an IP multimedia subsystem network for delivery to the application server. Other embodiments are disclosed.
