1. A non-transitory machine readable medium storing a program for processing mobile-device data messages entering a network, the program comprising sets of instructions for:
- receiving a data message sent by a remote device;
identifying a set of remote device management (RDM) attributes associated with the received data message;
based on the RDM attribute set, identifying a service tag to associate with the data message; and
forwarding the first data message to a network element within the network along a first tunnel, and inserting a tag in a header of the first tunnel, said tag for allowing a set of network elements of the network to process the data message according to a set of policies of the network.

Abstract
Some embodiments provide novel methods for processing remote-device data messages in a network based on data-message attributes from a remote device management (RDM) system. For instance, the method of some embodiments identifies a set of RDM attributes associated with a data message, and then performs one or more service operations based on identified RDM attribute set.
