Patent ID: 11316934

Abstract:
One aspect of the disclosure relates to a method for providing a service to a user equipment connected to a first operator network. The second operator network comprises a register containing subscription information of the user equipment. The method comprises a number of steps. One of these steps is receiving from the first operator network a service request of the user equipment, the service request being associated with the service. Another step is obtaining a service-deployment-specification for the second operator network comprising at least one network function associated with the service on the basis of the service request. Yet another step is converting the service-deployment-specification for the second operator network into a generic specification, the generic specification enabling execution of the at least one network function in the first operator network for providing the service to the user equipment. Yet another step is transmitting the generic specification to the first operator network. The invention further relates to systems and nodes in the first and second operator network, and to a computer program product for performing methods for providing the service.
