Abstract: A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to an edge cloud management service. The edge cloud management service may automate the provisioning, maintenance, supervision across multi-vendor network devices in a private/enterprise environment. Further, the edge cloud management service may provide abstraction and normalization services across multi-vendor components and enable KPI monitoring, location data, edge discovery metrics, end-to-end latency computation across various cloud service provider technologies.

Abstract: A device may include a processor. The processor may be configured to: assign, within a first wireless network, an access point name (APN) to a first gateway for a shared network. The first wireless network includes the first gateway. A second wireless network includes a second gateway for the shared network, and the second gateway is assigned the APN within the second network.

Abstract: A method for performing service authorization for private networks based on an enhanced PLMN identifier. The method includes receiving an attach request from a user equipment device (UE) via a private network, where the attach request includes an international mobile subscriber identity value (IMSI). The method further includes determining, based on the IMSI, an organization identifier and a token associated with the private network, where the token is included in an enhanced PLMN for granting the UE access to resources in the private network. The method further includes sending the token to the UE and a network proxy within the private network.

Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for the dynamic selection of configurable resources in an environment that includes a hierarchical or otherwise differentiated arrangement of configurable resources. The environment may include, or may be implemented by, a Distributed Resource Network (“DRN”), which may include hardware or virtual resources that may be configured, including the instantiation of containers, virtual machines, Virtualized Network Functions (“VNFs”), or the like. The DRN may be hierarchical in that some resources of the DRN may provide services to, and/or may otherwise be accessible to, a greater quantity of elements of the DRN or some other network.

Abstract: An illustrative network management system obtains sensor data from one or more sensors at a network facility at which network equipment of a communication network is deployed. The sensor data includes image data representing imagery of the network facility. The system determines a utilization of a utility at the network facility based on the sensor data and performs, based on the utilization, a management operation for the communication network. Corresponding methods and systems are also described.

Abstract: A device may receive a request to establish a session for a wireless communication device over a wireless network; identify the wireless communication device as an unmanned aerial vehicle; modify operating parameters of a radio access network (RAN), with which the wireless communication device has a radio resource control (RRC) link, to optimize communication between the access network and the unmanned aerial vehicle. The wireless network includes the RAN.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for network slice selection during an initial connection. A wireless station receives, from a core network device, network slice data for each network slice available via the wireless station, wherein the network slice data includes a slice identifier and corresponding slice characteristics for each network slice. The wireless station receives, from a user equipment (UE) device, a registration request message that indicates a network slice characteristic required by an application being executed on UE device. The wireless station selects, based on the network slice data from the core network device and the network slice characteristic from the UE device, one of the slice identifiers for servicing the UE device.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide a private network management service for enterprise networks with wireless access. The systems and methods receive, within a provider network and from a user of a private network, parameters for multiple subscription profiles; associate the multiple subscription profiles with an identifier for the private network to create private network subscription profiles; store the private network subscription profiles; and provide at least a portion of the private network subscription profiles from a core network of the provider network to an authentication proxy in the private network. The authentication proxy performs authentication for end devices locally based on the private network subscription profiles.
