Abstract: Virtual private network (VPN) service provider infrastructure (SPI) receives a request to access a VPN from a client device. The VPN SPI selects an Internet Protocol (IP) address for access to the VPN by the client device from a pool of IP addresses. The VPN SPI provides access to the VPN for the client device via the IP address. The VPN SPI receives one or more handshake notifications from the client device. The VPN SPI determines that a threshold time period has passed since a latest-in-time handshake notification of the one or more handshake notifications. The VPN SPI disconnects the client device from the VPN in response to determining that the threshold time period has passed. The VPN SPI adds the IP address to the pool of IP addresses in response to disconnecting the client device from the VPN.

Abstract: A method for managing NSSAI availability information at an NSSF includes receiving and storing NSSAI availability information from NF service consumers. The method further includes maintaining time values usable to determine expiration times for NSSAI availability information database records, where the time values are updated when a corresponding record is updated. The method further includes auditing the records, and, in response to failing to receive a request to update the NSSAI availability information for one of the NSSAI information database records within an expiration time, marking the record as stale. When a trigger is detected for providing NSSAI availability information from one of the database records that is marked as stale, the NSSF refrains from providing the NSSAI availability information to the NF service consumer.
