Abstract
A method, system and apparatus are disclosed. A network node is configured to determine a request for guidance on a rule determination associated a wireless device roaming, the determined request including at least one service parameter and a network identifier, the at least one service parameter being applicable to at least one user of a network associated with the network identifier. The network node is configured to cause transmission of the request for guidance on the rule determination.
Claims40
A network node comprising processing circuitry configured to:
- determine a request for guidance on a rule determination associated a wireless device roaming, the determined request including at least one service parameter and a network identifier, the at least one service parameter being applicable to at least one user of a network associated with the network identifier;
- and
- cause transmission of the request for guidance on the rule determination.

A network node comprising processing circuitry configured to:
- determine a user equipment route selection policy (URSP) for a wireless device based on whether the wireless device is an inbound roamer or an outbound roamer;
- when the wireless device is an inbound roamer:
- read service data using a first key, the first key being a wireless device public land mobile network (PLMN) identifier;
- transmit first service parameters corresponding to the service data to a home policy control function (H-PCF);
- when the wireless device is an outbound roamer:
- read second service parameters using a second key, the second key being at least one of:
- a wireless device ID, a group ID of the wireless device, and any wireless device from a home UDR;
- and
- verify whether the second service parameters are applicable when the wireless device is roaming in a visited PLMN ID (VPLMNID).
