SUBSCRIBER DEPENDENT REDIRECTION BETWEEN A MOBILE PACKET CORE PROXY AND A CELL SITE PROXY IN A NETWORK ENVIRONMENT

摘要

A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving, by a first proxy within an access network, a first request for content associated with a remote server. The first request includes a subscriber identifier associated with a subscriber. The method further includes sending the first request to a second proxy within a core network. The first request is intercepted by an intercept function within the core network in a first intercept operation. The intercept function is configured to forward the first request to the second proxy. The method further includes receiving a redirect from the second proxy. The redirect is configured to redirect the first request to the first proxy. The redirect is intercepted by the intercept function in a second intercept operation, and the intercept function is configured to forward the redirect to the first proxy.
