Abstract
A mobile gateway may provide access to one or more networks based on a variety of configurable parameters, constraints, etc. A Mobile Gateway Management System (“MGMS”) may maintain different sets of rules, parameters, etc. associated with multiple different mobile gateways, such that a network may be able to determine whether to provide access to a particular mobile gateway based on location parameters, temporal parameters, account parameters, or other parameters. When access is granted to the network based on the parameters, the mobile gateway may serve as an interface between one or more User Equipment (“UEs”) and the network.
Claims20
A device, comprising:
- one or more processors configured to:
- receive a request, associated with a particular mobile gateway, to access a particular network;
- identify a particular set of mobile gateway parameters associated with the particular mobile gateway;
- determine whether to provide access in response to the request based on the identified particular set of mobile gateway parameters associated with the particular mobile gateway;
- and
- selectively grant or deny access in response to the request based on the determining, wherein the selectively granting or denying access includes one of:
- denying the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, or
- granting the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, wherein the mobile gateway provides connectivity between one or more User Equipment (“UEs”) and the particular network when the request to access the particular network is granted.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium, storing a plurality of processor-executable instructions to:
- receive a request, associated with a particular mobile gateway, to access a particular network;
- identify a particular set of mobile gateway parameters associated with the particular mobile gateway;
- determine whether to provide access in response to the request based on the identified particular set of mobile gateway parameters associated with the particular mobile gateway;
- and
- selectively grant or deny access in response to the request based on the determining, wherein the selectively granting or denying access includes one of:
- denying the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, or
- granting the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, wherein the mobile gateway provides connectivity between one or more User Equipment (“UEs”) and the particular network when the request to access the particular network is granted.
A method, comprising:
- receiving a request, associated with a particular mobile gateway, to access a particular network;
- identifying a particular set of mobile gateway parameters associated with the particular mobile gateway;
- determining whether to provide access in response to the request based on the identified particular set of mobile gateway parameters associated with the particular mobile gateway;
- and
- selectively granting or denying access in response to the request based on the determining, wherein the selectively granting or denying access includes one of:
- denying the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, or
- granting the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, wherein the mobile gateway provides connectivity between one or more User Equipment (“UEs”) and the particular network when the request to access the particular network is granted.
