SERVICE-BASED ROUTING FOR MOBILE CORE NETWORK
First Claim
1. A system that facilitates establishment of a data session associated with a communication device, comprising:
- a plurality of mobility gateways, wherein the at least one mobility gateway of the plurality of gateways is selected to facilitate communication of data between the communication device and at least one of a service or an application employed during the data session; and
a session establishment component that selects the at least one mobility gateway based at least in part on the at least one of the service or the application.

Abstract
System(s), method(s), and device(s) that enable establishment of data session based in part on services are presented. When establishing a data session for a communication device, the desired mobility gateway can be dynamically assigned via a specified policy mechanism or provisioned using a predefined service policy table, where particular services are linked with respective identifiers associated with respective mobility gateways. A communication device can reference the service policy table to locate a service that is to be used for the data session and can identify an identifier(s) linked to the service(s) and associated with a mobility gateway(s). The identifier(s) can be received and used to facilitate selecting one or more respective mobility gateways for the data session(s). The service policy table can be automatically pushed to the communication device or the communication device can initiate a download of the service policy table when the default data connection is established.
