Abstract: A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes analyzing characteristics of traffic associated with an application in a data communications network; defining each of a plurality of Access Point Names (“APNs”) for terminating traffic in the data communications network; comparing the application traffic characteristics with the APNs; and selecting one of the APNs based on results of the comparing, in which the selected one of the APNs is assigned to terminate the application traffic. In some embodiments, the application traffic characteristics include at least one of average data packet size, average uplink traffic volume, average downlink traffic volume, triggering traffic data generation, and session frequency. The method may further include periodically re-comparing the application traffic characteristics with the APNs and selecting a different one of the APNs based on results of the recomparing to terminate the application traffic.

Abstract translation: 在一个示例实施例中提供了一种方法，并且包括分析与数据通信网络中的应用相关联的业务的特性; 定义多个接入点名称（“APN”）中的每一个以终止数据通信网络中的业务; 将应用流量特征与APN进行比较; 以及基于所述比较的结果来选择所述APN中的一个，其中所选择的一个所述APN被分配以终止所述应用业务。 在一些实施例中，应用业务特性包括平均数据分组大小，平均上行链路业务量，平均下行链路业务量，触发业务数据生成和会话频率中的至少一个。 该方法还可以包括周期性地重新比较应用业务特性与APN，并且基于重新比较的结果来选择不同的APN以终止应用业务。
