Abstract
Systems and methods for managing a network are disclosed. In certain systems and methods, access to a network such as a wireless network, can be granted or denied based upon a threshold number of devices accessing the network. Moreover, access to a first service available over the network can be granted or denied based upon a threshold number of devices accessing the first service. Various network resource can be allocated to the first service based at least upon the number of device access the first service.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, based upon a threshold quantity of devices accessing a network and in response to a request for access to the network, a grant of access to a network;
- receiving, based upon a threshold quantity of devices accessing a first service of a plurality of services provided via the network and in response to a request for access to the first service, a grant of access to the first service, wherein a network resource is allocated to the first service based on a quantity of the plurality of services accessed via the network and a type of traffic associated with one or more of the quantity of the plurality of services.
A device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the device to:
- receive, based upon a threshold quantity of devices accessing a network and in response to a request for access to the network, a grant of access to a network;
- receive, based upon a threshold quantity of devices accessing a first service of a plurality of services provided via the network and in response to a request for access to the first service, a grant of access to the first service, wherein a network resource is allocated to the first service based on a quantity of the plurality of services accessed via the network and a type of traffic associated with one or more of the quantity of the plurality of services.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause:
- receiving, based upon a threshold quantity of devices accessing a network and in response to a request for access to the network, a grant of access to a network;
- receiving, based upon a threshold quantity of devices accessing a first service of a plurality of services provided via the network and in response to a request for access to the first service, a grant of access to the first service, wherein a network resource is allocated to the first service based on a quantity of the plurality of services accessed via the network and a type of traffic associated with one or more of the quantity of the plurality of services.
