Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, determining a first physical location serviceable by a private access network and an indication of physical location of a user. The first physical location can be compared to the second physical location to obtain a first comparison result. Activation of the wireless access network can be controlled according to the comparison result between an active state in which the wireless access network is available for network service at the first physical location and an inactive state in which the wireless access network is unavailable for service at the first physical location. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Concepts and technologies disclosed herein are directed to zero trust network access (“ZTNA”) and virtual private network (“VPN”) client offloading. According to one aspect, a user device can establish a private network session to access a private network resource in a private network. The user device can receive a request to offload the private network session from the user device to a secure router. In response to the request, the user device can offload the private network session to the secure router.

Abstract: A network device may establish a first interface with a network data analytics function (NWDAF) of a service-based architecture (SBA), and may establish a second interface with Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) access devices and non-3GPP access devices. The network device may provide, to the NWDAF and via the first interface, definitions of analytics data to be generated by the NWDAF, and may provide, to the NWDAF and via the first interface, raw data of an operational state of the SBA to cause the NWDAF to calculate the analytics data based on the definitions and the raw data of an operational state. The network device may receive the analytics data from the NWDAF and via the first interface, and may perform one or more actions based on the analytics data.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network device may receive an indication of a switchover for a subscriber group that contains subsets of subscriber sessions. The network device may transition each subset of the subscriber sessions to a state associated with traffic forwarding. The network device may selectively transition each subset of the subscriber sessions from the state associated with the traffic forwarding to a state associated with traffic services.

Abstract: A disclosed apparatus may include and/or represent a first node and a second node communicatively coupled to the first node. In some examples, the second node is configured to send binding information to the first node and then resend the binding information to the first node due at least in part to not having received an acknowledgement of successful installation of the binding information from the first node. Various other devices, systems, and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: A device for supporting an object on a structure includes a mounting member having a front face and a side face, a first mounting hole and a second mounting hole passing through the front face, wherein the first mounting hole is a first distance from the second mounting hole, a first positioning structure and a second positioning structure on the side face, wherein the first positioning structure is a second distance from the second positioning structure, wherein the first distance is the same as the second distance, and a hook on the front face.

Abstract: Architectures and techniques are presented that provide an improved mechanism for a subscriber entity to report to a network provider a network issue that affects the performance of an application that uses a service provided by the network provider. The improved mechanism can enable fine granularity with respect to the network issue by identifying the issue on a per-session basis. In response to feedback data that is reported by the subscriber entity, the network provider can perform self-healing or other upgrade techniques to rapidly remedy the network issue.

Abstract: A first device associated with a physical optical line terminal (pOLT) and a disaggregated broadband network gateway user plane (DBNG-UP) may receive, from a second device associated with an optical network unit (ONU), a first packet associated with a request for network configuration information. The first device may determine, based on the first packet, a circuit identifier associated with a communication link between the first device and the second device, and a remote identifier associated with the second device. The first device may send to a third device associated with a disaggregated broadband network gateway control plane (DBNG-CP), the first packet and additional information that includes the circuit identifier and the remote identifier. The first device may receive from the third device a second packet associated with a response to the request for the network configuration information, and may send the second packet to the second device.

Abstract: A device for dispensing hook and loop material includes a housing configured to support a roll of hook and loop material, a carriage mounted on the housing to move between a first position and a second position, and a cutting mechanism mounted to the carriage for movement therewith. The cutting mechanism is configured to cut the hook and loop material at the first position and create a cut end. The cutting mechanism is configured to expose a length of hook and loop material and the cut end at the second position.

Abstract: In general, techniques are described for supporting bulk delivery of change of authorization data in authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) protocols, where delivery is performed as a change of authorization after a subscriber has successfully authenticated and initially authorized. In one example, the techniques are directed to a method including determining, by a RADIUS server for a service provider network, change of authorization data for services to which the subscriber of the service provider network has subscribed. The method further includes generating, by the RADIUS server, RADIUS messages that form a transaction between the RADIUS server and a network access server acting as a RADIUS client. The RADIUS messages provide all of the change of authorization data to the network access server prior to the network access server provisioning the services. The method further includes outputting, by the RADIUS server, the RADIUS messages to the network access server.
