Abstract
A method for resolution of inter-network domain names between telecommunications networks includes storing, at a security edge protection proxy (SEPP) of a home network, a mapping between a domain name and a network address of a producer network function of the home network. The method includes receiving, at the SEPP of the home network, a request message from a consumer network function of a visitor network. The method includes resolving, at the SEPP of the home network, a request message domain name of the request message using the mapping between the domain name and the network address of the producer network function of the home network.
Claims16
A method for resolution of inter-network domain names between telecommunications networks, the method comprising:
- storing, at a security edge protection proxy (SEPP) of a home network, a mapping between a domain name and a network address of a producer network function of the home network;
- receiving, at the SEPP of the home network, a request message from a consumer network function of a visitor network;
- and
- resolving, at the SEPP of the home network, a request message domain name of the request message using the mapping between the domain name and the network address of the producer network function of the home network;
- wherein storing the mapping between the domain name and the network address of the producer network function comprises storing the mapping while acting as a proxy between the home network and the visitor network;
- and
- wherein acting as a proxy between the home network and the visitor network comprises receiving a discovery request from the consumer network function, forwarding the discovery request to a network function repository function (NRF), receiving a response message from the NRF, and forwarding the response message to the consumer network function.
A system for resolution of inter-network domain names between telecommunications networks, the system comprising:
- at least one processor and a memory;
- and
- a security edge protection proxy (SEPP) of a home network, the SEPP implemented by the at least one processor and configured for:
- storing a mapping between a domain name and a network address of a producer network function of the home network;
- receiving a request message from a consumer network function of a visitor network;
- and
- resolving a request message domain name of the request message using the mapping between the domain name and the network address of the producer network function of the home network;
- wherein storing the mapping between the domain name and the network address of the producer network function comprises storing the mapping while acting as a proxy between the home network and the visitor network;
- and
- wherein acting as a proxy between the home network and the visitor network comprises receiving a discovery request from the consumer network function, forwarding the discovery request to a network function repository function (NRF), receiving a response message from the NRF, and forwarding the response message to the consumer network function.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions that when executed by a processor of a computer control the computer to perform steps comprising:
- storing, at a security edge protection proxy (SEPP) of a home network, a mapping between a domain name and a network address of a producer network function of the home network;
- receiving, at the SEPP of the home network, a request message from a consumer network function of a visitor network;
- and
- resolving, at the SEPP of the home network, a request message domain name of the request message using the mapping between the domain name and the network address of the producer network function of the home network;
- wherein storing the mapping between the domain name and the network address of the producer network function comprises storing the mapping while acting as a proxy between the home network and the visitor network;
- and
- wherein acting as a proxy between the home network and the visitor network comprises receiving a discovery request from the consumer network function, forwarding the discovery request to a network function repository function (NRF), receiving a response message from the NRF, and forwarding the response message to the consumer network function.
