Patent ID: 11171873

Abstract:
A method and a managing node for managing exchange of information relating to Packet Flow Descriptors, PFDs, between an application server and a network exposure node are disclosed. The managing node receives a message comprising a PFD with a PFD identifier, an external application identifier associated with the PFD, a server identifier of the application server, a transaction identifier, and a network exposure identifier identifying an operator network. The managing node stores received information. The managing node selects, based on the network exposure identifier, a network exposure node. When a PFD selection identifier is included in the message, the managing node selects, based on the PFD selection identifier, a further PFD amongst the set of stored PFDs. The managing node also determines an action for the further PFD. The managing node further transmits, towards the network exposure node, the PFD and an indication of the action.
