PROVIDING LIMITED NETWORK ACCESS TO USER DEVICES
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a network device, a connection request from a user device that is not subscribed to a network associated with the network device,the connection request identifying a particular service, of one or more services, to provide to the user device,identifying, by the network device, a packet data network (PDN) to establish based on the particular service;
identifying, by the network device, one or more parameters associated with the PDN,the one or more parameters identifying a data flow, associated with the particular service, that can be provided to the user device;
establishing, by the network device, the PDN based on the one or more PDN parameters,the PDN permitting only the data flow, associated with the particular service, to be transmitted to the user device; and
providing, by the network device, the data flow, associated with the particular service, to the user device via the PDN.

Abstract
A network device is configured to receive, from a user device that is not subscribed to a network associated with the network device, a connection request identifying a particular service, of one or more services, to provide to the user device. The system may further identify a packet data network (PDN) to establish based on the particular service; identify one or more parameters, associated with the PDN and identifying a data flow, associated with the particular service, that can be provided to the user device; and establish the PDN based on the one or more PDN parameters. The PDN may permit only the data flow, associated with the particular service, to be transmitted to the user device. The system may further provide the data flow, associated with the particular service, to the user device via the PDN.

9. A system comprising:
a network device to; receive a connection request from a user device that is not subscribed to a network associated with the network device, the connection request identifying a particular service, of one or more services, to provide to the user device; identify a packet data network (PDN) to establish based on the particular service; identify one or more parameters associated with the PDN, the one or more parameters identifying a data flow, associated with the particular service, that can be provided to the user device, establish the PDN based on the one or more PDN parameters; the PDN limiting data transmitted to the user device to the data flow associated with the particular service; and provide the data flow, associated with the particular service, to the user device via the PDN. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer-readable medium for storing instructions, the instructions comprising:
a plurality of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors associated with a network device, cause the one or more processors to; receive a connection request from a user device, the connection request identifying a particular service, of one or more services, to provide to the user device, the one or more services including allowing the user device to place an emergency telephone call, a non-emergency telephone call, or receive content from a server device when the user device is not subscribed to a network associated with the network device; identify a packet data network (PDN) to establish based on the particular service; identify one or more parameters associated with the PDN, the one or more parameters identifying a data flow, associated with the particular service, that can be provided to the user device, establish the PDN based on the one or more PDN parameters; the PDN permitting the data flow, associated with the particular service, to be transmitted to the user device while preventing another data flow, not associated with the particular service, from being transmitted to the user device; and provide the data flow, associated with the particular service, to the user device via the PDN. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
