Abstract: A device for operating a service network includes a processor and a memory in communication with the processor. The memory includes executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to control the device to perform functions of determining that a communication session is initiated between a first device connected to a first network and a second device connected to a second network, the service network connected between the first and second networks; identifying an attribute of the communication session; determining, based on the identified attribute, whether the communication is authenticated; and when it is determined that the communication is authenticated, sending, to the first or second network, a session notification indicating that the communication session is authenticated with the service network, which allows the first network to route a data stream for the communication session as a trusted data stream.

Abstract: Techniques for notification for a prioritized media path for a communication session are described. According to various embodiments, a communication session is authenticated with a communication service. The communication service interacts with an Internet Protocol (IP) network and a wireless access network to cause the communication session to be routed across a prioritized media path.

Abstract: Techniques for trust status of a communication session are described. According to various embodiments, different networks cooperate to facilitate routing of communication sessions between different devices. According to various embodiments, a network involved in routing a communication session ascertains whether an authentication status of a communication session is received, and categorizes a trust status of the communication session accordingly.

Abstract: Techniques for routing communication sessions are described. According to various embodiments, a set of routing paths are available for routing a communication session across a network. For instance, the routing paths represent Label Switched Paths (LSPs) across a Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) network. According to various embodiments, attributes of a communication session are leveraged to identify a routing path for routing the communication session. According to various embodiments, performance degradation in a communication session across a particular routing path is detected such that a replacement routing path is selected.

Abstract: Techniques for procedure for a problem for a communication session are described. According to various embodiments, a service policy specifies various rules and/or procedures for handling communication sessions. For instance, a service policy can specify service priority designations to be applied to communication sessions based on various attributes of the communication sessions. Techniques discussed herein provide for automated and dynamic management of service policies in a variety of communication scenarios, e.g., via per-session customization of service policies. In at least some embodiments, techniques may be employed to remedy problems that may occur during a communication session, such as via bandwidth reallocation, dynamic remapping of routing paths, and so forth.
