NEGOTIATING A SESSION PERSONALITY BASED AT LEAST IN PART ON A ROAMING AGREEMENT

摘要

A method for negotiating a session personality based at least in part on a roaming agreement is provided. The method can include a roaming access network receiving an identifier provided by an access terminal attendant to establishment of a session between the access terminal and the roaming access network. The method can further include the roaming access network using the identifier to determine a home network associated with the access terminal. The method can additionally include the roaming access network determining one or more radio access technology (RAT) versions covered by a roaming agreement between the home network and the roaming access network. The method can also include the roaming access network negotiating a session personality for use in the session based at least in part on the one or more RAT versions covered by the roaming agreement.
