Patent ID: 8620308

Claim:
A system, comprising: a non-transitory memory to store instructions; and a processor, coupled to the non-transitory memory, that facilitates execution of the instructions to perform operations, comprising: receiving, via an authorized device, configuration data associated with a first distributed roaming master device within a first radio access carrier network and a second distributed roaming master device within a second radio access carrier network, wherein the configuration data comprises parameter data indicative of an internet protocol security parameter, and wherein the first distributed roaming master device authenticates a roaming user equipment that is subscribed to the second radio access carrier network based on profile data associated with the roaming user equipment that is downloaded from the second distributed roaming master device over an internet protocol network, wherein the configuration data comprises timing data indicative of a time period for synchronization of the first distributed roaming master device with distributed roaming servers that resides within the first radio access carrier network, wherein the distributed roaming servers perform a subset of functions performed by the first distributed roaming master device and provide an internet protocol interface that is utilized for communication with a network device of a third radio access carrier network by utilization of internet protocol-based messaging, and wherein the synchronization is facilitated via a set of extensible markup language strings over secure sockets layer messages, and facilitating a transmission of the parameter data to the first distributed roaming master device via a set of secure sockets layer messages, wherein the second radio access carrier network comprises a gateway general packet radio service support node device and the parameter data is employed by the first distributed roaming master device to facilitate routing of a data packet received from the roaming user equipment to a destination device within the second radio access carrier network by bypassing the gateway general packet radio service support node device.
