Abstract
A method, apparatus, and machine readable non-transitory storage medium for a SDCI pull and push mode optimization are provided, which comprise synchronizing a caching timer and an allowed delay between a Policy and Charging Enforcement Function (PCEF) and a Packet Flow Description Function (PFDF); comparing the caching timer and the allowed delay; and pushing an updated Packet Flow Description (PFD) from the PFDF to the PCEF based on a result of the comparing.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- synchronizing a caching timer and an allowed delay between a policy and charging enforcement function (PCEF) or a traffic detection function (TDF) and a packet flow description function (PFDF);
- comparing the caching timer and the allowed delay;
- and
- pushing an updated packet flow description (PFD) from the PFDF to the PCEF or to the TDF, respectively, based on a result of the comparing.
1 more element
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to perform a process comprising:
- synchronizing a caching timer and an allowed delay between a policy and charging enforcement function (PCEF) or a traffic detection function (TDF), and a packet flow description function (PFDF);
- comparing the caching timer and the allowed delay;
- and
- pushing an updated packet flow description (PFD) from the PFDF to the PCEF or to the TDF, respectively, based on a result of the comparing.
