Abstract:
A device may receive provisioning data identifying an application server and a user equipment. The device may provide a request for reachability data associated with the user equipment and may receive the reachability data. The device may cause a trigger for a packet and data identifying the application server to be provided to the user equipment. The device may receive, from the user equipment, the packet that includes a network address and a port identifier of a port of the user equipment. The device may provide, to a firewall associated with the application server, an identifier, the network address, and the port identifier. The device may cause, via the firewall, the reachability data, the network address, and the port identifier to be provided to the application server to enable the application server to provide data to the user equipment.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a network slice usage subscription service is provided. The network slice usage subscription service may allow a network device to obtain network slice usage information and event notifications. The event notification may indicate when an end device is using a network slice and when the end device is no longer the network slice. The network device may include an application function (AF) device. The network device may use the event notification to perform an operation relating to the network slice and/or the end device.
Abstract:
A system described herein may provide a technique for automatically mitigating excessive pings transmitted by a User Equipment (“UE”) through a wireless telecommunications network by instructing the UE to take remedial action and/or by modifying the UE's access to the network. A given UE transmitting excessive pings may be automatically identified based on dynamic thresholds which may vary based on factors such as network congestion, and the instructions may include instructions to shut down, restart, or send fewer pings. The access may be modified by modifying subscription information for the UE at a subscriber information repository.
Abstract:
A device may receive a first indication that a user device connected to a first network device associated with a first network, the first indication including a hardware identifier associated with the user device; identify a policy set associated with the hardware identifier; and output the policy set to the first network device. The outputting may cause the first network device to filter traffic, transmitted via the first network device and destined for the user device, in accordance with the policy set. The device may receive a second indication that the user device has connected to a second network device associated with a second network; and output the policy set to the second network device. The outputting may cause the second network device to filter traffic, transmitted via the second network device and destined for the user device, in accordance with the policy set.

Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a network slice usage service is provided. The network slice usage service may allow a network device to obtain a network slice usage value of a network slice. The network device may be implemented as a network data analytics function (NWDAF). The network slice usage value may be provided by an access and mobility management function (AMF). The network device may calculate a network slice load value based on the network slice usage value. The network device may also provide the network slice load value to other network devices of a core network, such as a network slice selection function (NSSF) and/or a policy control function (PCF).

Abstract:
In some implementations, a network device may receive an identifier associated with an application server. The network device may associate the identifier with a service profile associated with a network slice based on a quality of service associated with the network slice. The network device may provide, to a device associated with the application server, information indicating that the identifier is associated with the service profile. The network device may receive address information associated with the application server. The network device may associate the address information with the service profile. The network device may provide service profile information to a security device included in a core network to cause the security device to forward traffic transmitted by the application server toward a destination via the network slice. The service profile information may include an identifier associated with the service profile, the identifier, and the address information.
Abstract:
A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to a network performance and management service. The network performance and management service may include generating prospective network performance information pertaining to a network element and/or a geographic service area based on current network analytics information, network topology information, and crowd and test data. The prospective network performance information may include prospective performance metric values, probability, and confidence values. The network performance and management service perform a network modification when expected network performance information requirements may not be met.
