Tier-based admission control for user equipment

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a device, a network resource request,
• the network resource request corresponding to a request, by a user device, to access a network resource associated with a network;
• determining, by the device, a service type associated with the network resource request;
• determining, by the device, a network congestion level associated with the network;
• providing, by the device, a user device identifier that identifies the user device;
• receiving, by the device and based on providing the user device identifier, information identifying a quality of service parameter assigned to the network resource,
• the quality of service parameter being determined based on a mapping between a plurality of subscriber classes and a corresponding plurality of quality of service parameters that include the quality of service parameter,
• a subscriber class, of the plurality of subscriber classes, indicating a priority level associated with a user of the user device,
• the subscriber class being mapped to at least two quality of service parameters of the plurality of quality of service parameters;
• determining, by the device, that the network resource request is to be denied based on the quality of service parameter and the network congestion level;
• and
• providing, by the device, the user device with access to the network resource based on determining that the network resource request is to be denied and based on the service type, associated with the network resource request, being a particular service type.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive information associated with a network resource request,
• the network resource request being a request, by a user device, for access to a network resource associated with a network;
• determine a subscriber class associated with the user device based on receiving the information associated with the network resource request,
• the subscriber class indicating a priority level of a subscriber associated with the user device;
• determine a service type associated with the network resource request based on receiving the information associated with the network resource request;
• determine an allocation and retention priority (ARP) level based on the service type and based on a mapping between a plurality of subscriber classes and a corresponding plurality of ARP levels,
• the plurality of subscriber classes including the subscriber class,
• the plurality of ARP levels including the ARP level, and
• the subscriber class being mapped to at least two ARP levels included in the plurality of ARP levels;
• determine that the network resource request is to be denied based on the ARP level and a network congestion level;
• and
• provide the user device with access to the network resource based on determining that the network resource request is to be denied and based on the service type, associated with the network resource request, being a particular service type.
