Network service access control
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising, under control of a processor:
- receiving, from a first party associated with a first communication session, a first service message including information of a first session attribute and associated with first identification information of the first party of the first communication session, the first identification information comprising an identifier of an access network connected to a terminal associated with the first party;
retrieving, from an authorization registry, first authorization information corresponding to the first identification information, the first authorization information indicating the first party lacks permission to utilize the first session attribute when the terminal associated with the first party is connected to the access network;
in response to the first authorization information indicating the first session attribute is not permitted;
determining a second session attribute different from the first session attribute based at least in part on downgrade information associated with the first session attribute;
determining a first status message based at least in part on the first service message, the first status message comprising information of the second session attribute; and
transmitting the first status message via a communications interface to a second party of the communication session;
receiving, from a third party associated with a second communication session, a second service message including information of a third session attribute and associated with second identification information of the third party of the second communication session, the third session attribute comprising a media capability of a terminal associated with the third party;
retrieving, from the authorization registry, second authorization information corresponding to the second identification information;
in response to the second authorization information indicating the third party is not permitted to use the media capability;
determining a second status message comprising a service-failure message based at least in part on the second service message, the service-failure message comprising an indication that the third party is disallowed from utilizing the media capability; and
transmitting the second status message via the communications interface to the third party.

Abstract
In some implementations, a telecommunications network can include an anchoring network device. The anchoring network device can receive, from a first party of a communication session, a service message including information of a first session attribute and associated with identification information of a party of the communication session. The anchoring network device can retrieve, from an authorization registry, authorization information corresponding to the identification information. In response to the authorization information indicating the first session attribute is not permitted, the anchoring network device can determine a status message based at least in part on the service message and transmit the status message via a communications interface. The status message can include a service-failure message or a second service message including information of a second, different session attribute.

10. A computer-implemented method comprising, under control of a processor:
-
receiving, from a first party of a communication session, a service message including information of a first session attribute and associated with identification information of a party of the communication session, the identification information comprising an identifier of an access network connected to a terminal associated with the first party; retrieving, from an authorization registry, authorization information indicating the first party lacks permission to utilize the first session attribute when the terminal associated with the first party is connected to the access network; in response to the authorization information indicating the first session attribute is not permitted; determining a second session attribute different from the first session attribute based at least in part on downgrade information associated with the first session attribute; and determining a status message comprising information of the second session attribute based at least in part on the service message; and transmitting the status message to a second party of the communication session via a communications interface. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12)

13. A telecommunications network, comprising:
an anchoring network device communicatively connectable with a user equipment, wherein the anchoring network device is configured to; receive from the user equipment a first service message associated with a communication session, the first service message including information of a first session attribute, the first session attribute indicating a media capability of the user equipment; determine identification information of one or more parties of the communication session; retrieve authorization information corresponding to the identification information; in response to the authorization information indicating the user equipment is not permitted to use the media capability, determine a service-failure message based at least in part on the first service message, the service-failure message comprising an indication that the user equipment is disallowed from utilizing the media capability; and transmit the service-failure message to the user equipment via a communications interface. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
