  • Resilient in-band mobile core user plane function selection using segment routing load balancing
    Patent number: 10506469
    Abstract: A user plane selection mechanism is provided that leverages an in-band load balancing scheme, e.g., Segment Routing Load Balancing (SRLB). Information in the form of segment identifiers (complemented by metadata) is passed to the components. As a result, the effective user plane function selection can be done in-band at the transport level.
    Type: Grant
