Abstract: Methods to overcome Logical Channel ID (LCID) limitations during bearer type switching when multiple ENDC bearers are supported. Initially, the method recites determining a configuration mode of a bearer to be added for the UE, which may be either MCG mode or SCG-split mode. Further, the method recites allocating an LCID to the bearer based on the configuration mode and one or more criteria. The method recites performing, upon detecting an addition of a secondary node in the communication network by checking whether LCIDs are available for allocating corresponding bearers requiring SCG-split mode in response to the addition of the secondary node. The method further recites assigning the LCIDs to the corresponding bearers requiring the SCG-split mode, when the LCIDs are available for the bearers and switching a set of bearers, among the bearers, into the SCG-split mode when the LCIDs are available only for the set of bearers.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques and mechanisms for enabling an end point to have concurrent access to multiple private groups within a network. For instance, the private groups may correspond to user defined network (UDN) groups. The techniques described herein include mapping identifiers (e.g., device identifiers, flowlabels, application identifiers, UDN group identifiers, etc.). The techniques enable a user device to access a first UDN group using a first application on the user device and a second UDN group using a second application on the user device, such that a user does not have to leave the first UDN group in order to participate in the second UDN group. Moreover, the assignment of a user device to one or more UDN groups is policy driven and the infrastructure ensures that only the relevant data traffic is forwarded to the group members within a particular UDN group.

The user provides feedback regarding the selected images, which is used to refine the still image selection.

Abstract: Techniques for using Network Address Translation (NAT), Mobile Internet Protocol (MIP), and/or other techniques in conjunction with Domain Name System (DNS) to anonymize server-side addresses in data communications. Rather than having DNS provide a client device with an IP address of an endpoint device, such as a server, the DNS instead returns a virtual IP (VIP) address that is mapped to the client device and the endpoint device. In this way, IP addresses of servers are obfuscated by a virtual network of VIP addresses. The client device may then communicate data packets to the server using the VIP address as the destination address, and a virtual network service that works in conjunction with DNS can convert the VIP address to the actual IP address of the server using NAT and forward the data packet onto the server.
