Abstract
A method for managing network access is provided. The method includes determining whether there is a network connection request from at least one application, checking at least one attribute information item of the application, determining an access point name (APN) corresponding to the application based on the at least one attribute information item, and transmitting and receiving data of the application to/from a network using the determined APN.
Claims8
A method for managing network access, the method comprising:
- determining whether there is a network connection request from at least one application;
- checking attribute information of the at least one application, wherein the attribute information comprises a user ID and a data usage;
- determining an access point name (APN) corresponding to the at least one application based on the data usage, the data usage is amount of data transmitted and received by the at least one application accumulated over time;
- and
- transmitting and receiving data of the at least one application to/from a network using the determined APN.
An electronic device for managing network access, the electronic device comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- determine that there is a network connection request from at least one application,
- check attribute information of the at least one application, the attribute information comprising a user ID and a data usage, and
- determine an access point name (APN) corresponding to the at least one application based on the data usage, the data usage is amount of data transmitted and received by the at least one application accumulated over time;
- and
- a transceiver configured to transmit and receive data of the at least one application to/from a network using the determined APN.
