Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining a request for a communication service from a user equipment, based on the obtaining of the request, assigning a first identifier to the user equipment as part of the communication service, obtaining first data from the user equipment as part of the communication service, analyzing at least the first data in accordance with at least one algorithm to determine that the user equipment is likely misconfigured in an amount that is greater than a threshold, resulting in a determination, based on the determination, mapping the first identifier to a second identifier associated with the user equipment, generating a message based on the mapping, and transmitting the message. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A radio access network intelligent controller (RIC) can comprise a physical resource block (PRB) scheduler that can facilitate the streaming of videos. When a user equipment (UE) requests a video, the PRB scheduler can take into account channel quality data associated with the connection between the UE and a distributed unit of a base station. The PRB scheduler can also receive video stream rate information from a video server. Based on the video stream rate information and the channel quality data, the PRB scheduler can make a decision regarding what types of videos to facilitate streaming to the UE.

Abstract: Misconfigured user equipment (UE) can cause additional traffic generation to server devices (e.g., 911 server device) and overload the server devices. Thus, detecting these UEs and blocking them before they hit the application servers in the mobility network can be facilitated via an identification and blocking approach. The system can comprise an identification correlator that can correlate S1 interface application protocol identification (S1-APID) associated with the UE to an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) of the UE. When the identification correlator collects data feeds from a network, the identification correlator can share this data with a call data record engine to determine if the UE is a misconfigured UE and prompt the network core to drop/block the misconfigured UE from a communication.

Abstract: This invention provides a more effective method for capacity planning and traffic engineering of packet networks that connect Virtual Private Network (VPN) sites. A distributed architecture efficiently computes traffic matrixes that show the number of bytes and/or packets exchanged among provider edge (PE) routers and/or service nodes. Each PE router in a service node is exports flow records to a Flow Record Processor (FRP) in the same location. The FRPs use these records in conjunction with configuration data extracted from the PE routers to compute partial traffic matrixes. The partial traffic matrixes are uploaded to a Matrix Generator to create a total traffic matrix. The total traffic matrix is essential input for capacity planning or traffic engineering tools.

Abstract: Systems in the current art provide capacity planning for packet networks. These systems require input data that characterizes traffic demands. The demands may be expressed as matrixes that record the number of bytes and packets exchanged between access routers or service nodes for each type-of-service. This invention defines a system and method to calculate these traffic matrixes. Access routers in a service node export flow records to a Record Collector. The flow records are processed to create ingress and egress records that are stored on the Record Collector. This data is uploaded to a Capacity Planning Server at which the traffic matrixes are generated. The egress access router(s) for a flow are determined by searching for matching ingress and egress records. Matching records have identical source and destination addresses. This algorithm requires no knowledge of the complex topology and routing protocols that are used within packet networks. Sampled or non-sampled flow records may be used.

Abstract: A method of configuring a network element such that a Virtual Private Network (VPN) site can connect to the network element is disclosed. An interface on a Provider Edge (PE) router is configured in restricted mode. A request is received from the interface to authenticate a user associated with a VPN requesting to connect to the interface. A determination is made as to whether the user is authorized to submit requests to the interface. If the user is authorized, an activation request is received from the interface to allow the VPN can connect to the interface. A determination is made as to whether the user is authorized to connect to the interface via the VPN. If the user is authorized, VPN site parameters are configured at the PE router and the PE router is configured in unrestricted mode.

Abstract: A method of providing high quality multimedia communications between end users uses an ATM-ADSL access system, which provides 6 megabits per second downstream and 640 kilobits per second upstream multimedia signal in conjunction with a multicasting feature. An end user can receive multiple video/audio streams downstream while the end user's video/audio is transmitted upstream to the multicast network and is multicast to the end points.
