  • Systems and methods for high availability and performance preservation for groups of network functions
    Patent number: 11811632
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for the proactive failover of groups of Virtualized Network Functions (“VNFs”) based on monitoring Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”) associated with the VNFs. KPIs associated with a particular VNF or a set of VNFs may be monitored, and a failover event indicating service degradation or imminent service degradation may be detected based on the KPIs associated with the particular VNF or set of VNFs. Additional VNFs, associated with the particular VNF or set of VNFs, may be further identified for failover from a first data center to a second data center. The additional VNFs may be identified for failover without necessarily monitoring KPIs associated with the additional VNFs, and/or based on factors in addition to KPIs associated with the additional VNFs. For example, the additional VNFs may be failed over based on the KPIs associated with the particular VNF or set of VNFs.

  • Optimized routing for law enforcement support
    Patent number: 11678195
    Abstract: An improved lawful intercept (LI) infrastructure is described. In response to a valid LI provisioning request, a subscriber management component statically allocates a user equipment (UE) subject to the LI provisioning request to an edge location comprising a high-speed gateway and a Mediation and Delivery Function (MDF), which coordinates the delivery of intercepted communications. The subscriber management component maintains this allocation for the life of the LI provisioning request and reverses the UE to a dynamic gateway allocation scheme when the LI provisioning request ends. As a result, only a subset of edge locations must be equipped with MDFs, and the handover is transparent to the UE.
