Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method for controlling operation of an optimization device in a network, the method comprising:
using at least one optimization technique serviced by the optimization device to facilitate data transfer across the network;
determining, by the optimization device, that an updated authorization is needed for continuing use of the at least one optimization technique at the optimization device based at least in part on an expiry time;
responding, by the optimization device, to the determination that the updated authorization is needed, wherein the responding comprises:
prior to the expiry time, transmitting an updated authorization request message to a portal from the optimization device; and

after not receiving an updated authorization response that provides an updated expiry time greater than the expiry time and a current time, continuing to operate the optimization device but without the at least one optimization technique applied to future data transfers across the network.
