Combination of network segmentation and user segmentation for multi-dwelling unit (MDU) and group recording

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a computer-readable storage media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
• receive a user request for streaming a content item from a user equipment (UE) of a user associated with a multi-dwelling unit (MDU);
• identify an MDU network segment to which the UE is connected;
• identify an integrated user-network segment profile associated with the user, the integrated user-network segment profile indicating a channel list designated to the MDU network segment and the user segment;
• identify a user segment to which the user belongs, based on the integrated user-network segment profile;
• determine that the requested content item is accessible by the user, based on the MDU network segment and the user segment and that the requested content is associated with a channel included in the channel list;
• and
• provide access to the requested content item to the UE over the MDU network segment;
• and
• applying the channel list using a channel filtering mechanism to block channels that are not included in the channel list.

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium encoded with instructions, the instructions are executable to cause one or more processors of a system to:

• receive a user request for streaming a content item from a user equipment (UE) of a user associated with a multi-dwelling unit (MDU);
• identify an MDU network segment to which the UE is connected;
• identify an integrated user-network segment profile associated with the user, the integrated user-network segment profile indicating a channel list designated to the MDU network segment and the user segment;
• identify a user segment to which the user belongs, based on the integrated user-network segment profile;
• determine that the requested content item is accessible by the user, based on the MDU network segment and the user segment and that the requested content is associated with a channel included in the channel list;
• and
• provide access to the requested content item to the UE over the MDU network segment;
• and
• applying the channel list using a channel filtering mechanism to block channels that are not included in the channel list.
