Abstract:
A device may receive a request for an authorization code, associated with providing content to a second device, from the second device. The device may provide the authorization code to the second device. The device may receive, from a third device, a request for a unique device identifier corresponding to the authorization code. The request for the unique device identifier may include the authorization code. The unique identifier may be associated with a subscriber of a network. The subscriber may be associated with the second device. The device may provide the unique device identifier to the third device. The third device may be associated with providing the content to the second device. The content may be targeted to the subscriber based on the unique device identifier.
Abstract:
A device can receive, from a user device, a transmission control protocol (TCP) synchronize (SYN) packet associated with a request to establish a TCP connection with a server device. The device can prevent a first TCP connection from being established between the device and the user device based on the TCP SYN packet. The device can cause a second TCP connection to be established between the device and the server device based on the TCP SYN packet and after preventing the first TCP connection from being established. The device can cause a third TCP connection to be established between the device and the user device after causing the second TCP connection to be established. The device can transfer network traffic between the user device and the server device based on the second TCP connection and the third TCP connection.
Abstract:
An exemplary method includes a subsidized access management system detecting a request provided by an access device associated with a user to access network content by way of a secure connection within a network provided by a network service provider, the network content associated with a content provider and maintained by a content provider system, determining that a data usage charge for access by the user to the network content by way of the secure connection within the network is subsidized by the content provider in accordance with a subsidized access arrangement between the content provider and the network service provider, and providing the user with subsidized access to the network content by way of the secure connection within the network in accordance with a rule set associated with the subsidized access arrangement. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A system can receive an indication associated with establishing a transmission control protocol (TCP) connection. The system can determine, based on the indication, information that identifies a user device associated with the TCP connection. The system can determine, based on the information that identifies the user device, a predicted congestion level of a base station associated with the TCP connection. The system can select, based on the predicted congestion level, a congestion control algorithm to be implemented for the TCP connection. The system can cause the TCP connection to be established and implement the congestion control algorithm for the TCP connection.
Abstract:
A device can receive, from a user device, a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) CONNECT request associated with a toll-free data service. The user device can establish a first transmission control protocol (TCP) connection with a proxy server. The HTTP CONNECT request can request the proxy server to establish a second TCP connection with a content provider server. The device can determine, based on the HTTP CONNECT request, that an authorization condition is satisfied. The device can store information associated with a flow between the user device and the content provider server. The user device and the content provider server can establish a transport layer security (TLS) connection based on the first TCP connection and the second TCP connection. The device can provide the information associated with the flow to permit an account of an entity to be adjusted in association with the toll-free data service.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a connection service is provided based on a software development kit architecture for an end device that operates with an Android operating system. The connection service includes a library that, when called, sets-up a Hypertext Transfer Protocol connection between the end device and a proxy device using a function pointer and a portable operating system interface connect function. The connection service also generates and transmits a Hypertext Transfer Protocol CONNECT message, which includes a Proxy-Authorization header, to the proxy device, which triggers three-way handshaking between the proxy device and a target device, subsequent to an establishment of the connection with the proxy device.
Abstract:
A computing device may include a memory configured to store instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to identify a data connection from an application server device to a user equipment (UE) device, wherein the UE device is connected to the network via a wireless connection; determine a target sending rate for the data connection; determine a round trip time for packets associated with the data connection; and calculate a send buffer size for the data connection based on the determined target sending rate and the determined round trip time. The processor may be further configured to set a send buffer size for a socket associated with the data connection to the calculated send buffer size and control a send rate from the application server device to the UE device for the data connection using the set send buffer size for the socket.

Abstract:
A wireless network device can receive, at a traffic director in a kernel space, a data packet from a client device and determine whether the data packet is intended for an application cloud server operating in a cloud environment. The wireless network device can provide, based on determining that the data packet is intended for the application cloud server, the data packet to an application server instance executing on the wireless network device. The application server instance can be implemented in a virtualized software container in a user space, and can be configured to perform one or more operations associated with the application cloud server. The wireless network device can receive, at the traffic director and from the application server instance, a result of the application server instance performing the one or more operations on the data packet, and transmit the result to the application cloud server.
