POLICY BASED ROUTING RESPECTING NETWORK CONDITIONS

摘要

An object of the invention is providing methods, apparatuses, and system for steering operations corresponding to a trigger request. A steering device obtains one or more steering policy parameters transmitted by an application server, and then, based on one or more network conditions and a predetermined operation corresponding to the network condition included in the steering policy parameter, detects a current network situation; if the current network situation matches the network condition, executes the predetermined operation corresponding to the network condition to the trigger request transmitted by the application server based on the steering policy parameter. Compared with the prior art, the present invention realizes that an operation to a trigger request can be steered by a steering device, and has the advantages such as steering the response to the trigger request, enhancing the efficiency of application, enhancing network reliability and functionality, and higher rate of innovation, etc.
