The disclosed subject matter discloses a configuration component that can generate a core instance that can be performed at a remotely located access network. In an embodiment, a remotely implemented core instance can be updatable. Further, in response to a remotely implemented core instance failing to perform, a monitoring component can facilitate a failover operation.

Abstract: An access identifier and network slice access management component (ANMC) is disclosed. The ANMC can receive service access update information from an entity, for example a customer/enterprise, that be used to update service access of a user equipment (UE) to services of a network. Embodiments of the ANMC can facilitate updating an access identity parameter, updating an access priority parameter, updating a network slice access parameter, or combinations thereof. An ANMC can be embodied in a virtualized network function, as hardware, as software, or combinations thereof. An ANMC can be local to a network supporting the UE or can be located remotely from the network supporting the UE, such as in execution on a server of a cloud platform. The ANMC can support management of UE service access by an entity other than a carrier supporting the UE via a device external to a network of the carrier.

Abstract: A streaming orchestrator may monitor the quality of video being delivered to a home or other building. If the streaming orchestrator determines that additional performance is needed, it may create an additional User Plane Gateway in the virtual “white box” environment residing in the customer premises. The streaming orchestrator may instruct gNodeBs to continue to route traffic back to the central core functions or to route traffic to local user plane gateways which transmit video streams to the Internet via localized high-speed connections.

Abstract: Management of immersive reality devices via a reduced competition core network component is disclosed. The reduced competition core network component can preferentially be reserved for immersive reality device data and can therefore exclude some or all other types of data typically associated with conventional wireless network devices, e.g., phone, tablet/laptop computers, IoT devices, etc. This can result in immersive reality data communication that does not have to compete with more generic data types for network or computing resources. Additionally, the reduced competition core network component can be divided into at least one reduced competition user-plane network component and at least one reduced competition control-plane network component. Use of a reduced competition user-plane network component can avoid generating additional carrier network traffic. Further, a reduced competition user-plane network component can facilitate non-carrier entity authentication, security protocols, etc.
