| 20110022702 | MECHANISM FOR DETECTING AND REPORTING TRAFFIC/SERVICE TO A PCRF - A method implemented by a policy server operating on a network to which is connected a device that performs a data packet inspection function, the method involving: sending a first message over the network from the policy server to the device, the first message instructing the device to detect an occurrence of a particular network traffic or service taking place over a connection on the network and to send a notification to the policy server upon detecting the occurrence of that particular network traffic or service; at the policy server receiving a notification from the device that the device has detected the occurrence of that particular network traffic or service; and in response to receiving the notification, sending a second message over the network from the policy server to a network component, the second message containing information associated with the notification. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20100316064 | PCMM APPLICATION MANAGER - A method of assigning network resources between network endpoints includes providing a session initiation request to an application manager. The application manager is logically and physically decoupled from an application server associated with the network endpoints. This request initiates communication between the network endpoints through the set of network resources. The communication employs an application residing on an application server. The method also includes providing a PCMM message from the application manager to a policy server as a result of the session initiation request. The PCMM message includes at least some information, for example QoS information, embedded in the session initiation request. The method further includes selecting, via the policy server, a set of network resources for creating a path connecting the network endpoints. The policy server selects the set of network assets based on the PCMM message, for example to set QoS for the communication between the two endpoints. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20100306369 | VIDEO POLICY SERVER - A system for distributing digital content includes two or more digital content sources. Each source has a separate session manager that is distinct from other session managers associated with other digital content sources. The system further includes at least one set of network resources that receive digital content from the two or more digital content sources, modulate the digital content onto a carrier signal suitable for transmission over an access network, and transmit the carrier signal over the access network. The system also includes a receiving device for terminating the carrier signal. The receiving device generates a digital content stream corresponding to the digital content from the two or more digital content sources. The system further includes a policy server for allocating bandwidth of the network resources to the digital content sources, and for monitoring a utilization state of the network resources. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20100121960 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING MOBILITY MANAGEMENT IN NETWORK - A method implemented by a gateway device which handles sessions over a network to which the gateway device is connected and which also enforces conditions of service provided to those network sessions, the method involving: receiving from a policy server a policy rules package, wherein the policy rules package specifies a set of rules that are to be applied to certain sessions handled by the gateway device and a set of criteria for identifying among a plurality of subscribers a group of all subscribers to which the rules are to be applied by the gateway device; based on set of criteria in the policy rules package identifying all subscribers with currently active sessions to whom the policy rules are to be applied; and applying the set of rules to the sessions of the identified subscribers. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20100103820 | FAIR USE MANAGEMENT METHOD AND SYSTEM - A method of managing a plurality of subscribers using a communication network involving: obtaining network usage data for a plurality of service flows associated with the plurality of subscribers using the network; from the network usage data, determining which of the plurality of subscribers has been using an excess amount of bandwidth; determining that at least some part of the network is currently in a congested state; and in response to determining that at least some part of the network is currently in the congested state, sending a policy decision to a gateway device that controls bandwidth resources currently being provided to the identified subscriber, said policy decision instructing the gateway device to reduce network bandwidth that is currently being provided to support existing service flows for the identified subscriber. | 04-29-2010 |
