Verifiable service policy implementation for intermediate networking devices
First Claim
1. A first end-user device capable of operating as an intermediate networking device, the first end-user device comprising:
- one or more modems enabling the first end-user device to communicate with a network system over a first network and with one or more other end-user devices over a second network, the first network comprising a wireless access network;
at least one processor configured to execute one or more instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to;
provide a forwarding service to the one or more other end-user devices, the forwarding service for forwarding first traffic between the one or more other end-user devices and the network system,implement a first service policy, the first service policy for assisting in control of the first traffic,implement a second service policy, the second service policy for assisting in control of second traffic, the second traffic associated with access by the first end-user device to one or more services over the first network, wherein the second service policy differs from the first service policy, andmonitor or identify successful use or attempted use of the forwarding service; and
memory coupled to the at least one processor and configured to provide the at least one processor with the one or more instructions.

Abstract
A first end-user device comprising one or more modems enabling the first end-user device to communicate with a network system over a first network and with one or more other end-user devices over a second network, the first network comprising a wireless access network, and at least one processor configured to provide a forwarding service to the one or more other end-user devices, the forwarding service for forwarding first traffic between the one or more other end-user devices and the network system, implement a first service policy for assisting in control of the first traffic, implement a second service policy for assisting in control of second traffic associated with access by the first end-user device to a service over the first network, wherein the second service policy differs from the first service policy, and monitor or identify successful use or attempted use of the forwarding service.

14. A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for causing one or more processors of a first end-user device to:
-
provide a forwarding service to one or more other end-user devices communicatively coupled to the first end-user device over a first network, the forwarding service for forwarding first traffic between the one or more other end-user devices and a network system communicatively coupled to the first end-user device over a second network, the second network comprising a wireless access network; implement a first service policy, the first service policy for assisting in control of the first traffic; implement a second service policy, the second service policy for assisting in control of second traffic, the second traffic associated with access by the first end-user device to one or more services over the second network, wherein the second service policy differs from the first service policy; and monitor or identify successful use or attempted use of the forwarding service.

15. A method performed by a first end-user device capable of operating as an intermediate networking device, the method comprising:
-
providing a forwarding service to one or more other end-user devices communicatively coupled to the first end-user device over a first network, the forwarding service for forwarding first traffic between the one or more other end-user devices and a network system communicatively coupled to the first end-user device over a second network, the second network comprising a wireless access network; implementing a first service policy, the first service policy for assisting in control of the first traffic; implementing a second service policy, the second service policy for assisting in control of second traffic, the second traffic associated with access to the first end-user device to one or more services over the second network, wherein the second service policy differs from the first service policy; and monitoring or identifying successful use or attempted use of the forwarding service.
