PUSH BASED SERVICES IN A MOBILE DATA NETWORK WITH DATA BREAKOUT AT THE EDGE

摘要

Push based services are supported on a breakout system in a mobile data network. The breakout system may not breakout some push based services and simply pass through these services to user equipment. In a PDP context with a dynamic IP address, the communication with the user equipment may be broken out and then be placed in a preserved state. In this situation, a breakout system which is not an active entity in the signaling over the mobile data network can not establish communication with the user equipment to send down the push data. To establish a new communication connection with the user equipment with a PDP context in a preserved state, a paging request from the mobile network is initiated to trigger a service request from the user equipment. The breakout system can then use the newly established connection to push the data to the user equipment.
