Abstract: Multiple authenticated identities for a single wireless association may be provided. First, an Access Point (AP) may provide an association with a client device. The AP may then establish, on the association, a first authenticated session for the client device based on a first media access control (MAC) address and a first identity. Next, the AP may establish, on same the association, a second authenticated session for the client device based on a second MAC address and a second identity.

Abstract: A solution that provides for increased high-frequency, record exports giving real-time insight of traffic patterns, by splitting a conventional monolithic template into a static template and a dynamic template. Static flow records are sent only at the beginning of a flow, or when ‘almost static’ information elements change. Dynamic records are sent very frequently, and only when there is a dynamic information element change.

Abstract: In one embodiment an apparatus comprising networking circuitry, and processing circuitry, the processing circuitry adapted to receive, via the networking circuitry, at least one indication of at least one service chain that is associated with a user plane anchor selected for anchoring a user equipment, out of a plurality of service chains in a network, the apparatus being the user equipment or being a host behind the user equipment, and the at least one service chain being fewer in number than the plurality of service chains, and use the at least one indication to direct at least one packet to at least one service function in the at least one service chain.

Abstract: A method provided in one embodiment includes receiving, at a packet gateway, a first binding update message from a mobile access gateway. The first binding update message has a destination address associated with a local mobility anchor. The method further includes extracting at least one session identifier associated with the mobile access gateway from the first binding update message, constructing an option field including the at least one session identifier, and appending the option field to the first binding update message to form a second binding update message. The method further includes sending the second binding update message to the local mobility anchor.
