DATA OFFLOADING WITH DISTRIBUTED IP MANAGEMENT AND ROUTING
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a wireless node, policies for data offloading;
identifying, by the wireless node, a user associated with a data flow to which a user device is attached;
determining, by the wireless node, whether data offloading is permitted for the user based on the policies; and
performing, by the wireless node, data offloading when it is determined that data offloading is permitted for the user, wherein data offloading includes routing the data flow away from at least one of a higher layer traffic aggregation device relative to the wireless node or a higher hierarchical controlling device relative to the wireless node.

Abstract
A method performed by a wireless node includes receiving policies for data offloading; identifying a user associated with a data flow to which a user device is attached; determining whether data offloading is permitted for the user based on the policies; and performing data offloading when it is determined that data offloading is permitted for the user, wherein data offloading includes routing the data flow away from at least one of a higher layer traffic aggregation device relative to the wireless node or a higher hierarchical controlling device relative to the wireless node.

10. A wireless node comprising:
-
one or more memories to store instructions; and one or more processors to execute the instructions in the one or more memories to; receive policies for data offloading; identify a user associated with a data flow to which a user device is attached; determine whether data offloading is permitted for the user based on the policies; and perform data offloading when it is determined that data offloading is permitted for the user, wherein data offloading includes routing the data flow so that the data flow does not traverse at least one of a higher layer traffic aggregation device relative to the wireless node or a higher hierarchical controlling device relative to the wireless node. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer-readable medium containing instructions executable by at least one processor, the computer-readable medium storing instructions for:
-
receiving policies for data offloading; identifying a user associated with a data flow to which a user device is attached; determining whether data offloading is permitted for the user based on the policies; and performing data offloading when it is determined that data offloading is permitted for the user, wherein data offloading includes routing the data flow so that the data flow does not traverse at least one of a higher layer traffic aggregation device relative to the wireless node or a higher hierarchical controlling device relative to the wireless node. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22)
