1. An end user device comprising:
- One or more modems configured to connect to one or more access networks including at least a first access network,One or more device agents configured to;
Store a first application program and a first access network service policy associated with the application program, the first access network service policy comprising;
Information about a first application credential associated with the first application program,First device agent instructions configured to govern at least an aspect of attempted or actual first access network communication activity associated with the first application program,Perform the following operations in any order;
implement the first device agent instructions to govern the at least an aspect of attempted or actual first access network communication activity associated with the first application program,utilize the information about the first application credential to perform a first application configuration check and if the first application configuration check does not pass, then take an action.

Abstract
Network service provisioning is described. Network service provisioning to a device includes a mechanism for ensuring that network services are available based upon one or more of appropriate traffic control, billing, and notification policies. Ensuring that the policies are properly enforced on a device is a focus of this paper. The enforcement policies can be on the device or in the network.

86. An end user device comprising:
-
One or more modems configured to connect to one or more access networks including at least a first access network, One or more device agents configured to; Store a first network access network service policy comprising; information to enable identification of access network activity associated with one or more first network resources available over the first access network, a mapping of the association between the access network activity associated with one or more first network resources available over the first access network and a flow tag identifier, the flow tag identifier comprising a traffic flow identifier that is added to one or more related data transfers over the access network that are associated with the one or more first network resources to enable a traffic processing element to identify the association of the traffic flow with the network access communication activity associated with the first application program, first device agent instructions configured to enable the device agents to; identify an association of the traffic flow with the network access communication activity associated with the one or more first network destinations, assign the flow tag to the traffic flow, communicate with the one or more first network resources over the first access network. implement the first device agent instructions. - View Dependent Claims (87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109)
