A method, performed by a device of a wireless access network, the method comprising:
- determining, by the device, that Voice over Long Term Evolution (VoLTE) capability is enabled for a network segment of the wireless access network;
- designating, by the device, the network segment for VoLTE enforcement;
- adding, by the device, an indication of VoLTE enforcement to a message information block;
- and
- transmitting, by the device, the message information block on the network segment.
A device of a wireless access network, the device comprising:
- a logic configured to:
- determine that Voice over Long Term Evolution (VoLTE) capability is enabled for a network segment of the wireless access network;
- designate the network segment for VoLTE enforcement;
- add an indication of VoLTE enforcement to a message information block;
- and
- transmit the message information block on the network segment.
A method, performed by a wireless communication device, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the wireless communication device, a message information block from a wireless access network;
- identifying, by the wireless communication device, and based on the received message information block, an indication that the wireless access network includes Voice over Long Term Evolution (VoLTE) enforcement;
- and
- activating, by the wireless communication device, VoLTE calling on the wireless communication device, in response to identifying the indication that the wireless access network includes VoLTE enforcement.
