COMPUTING WORKLOAD TRANSPORT OVER CONTROL PLANE IN NEXT GENERATION CELLULAR NETWORKS

An apparatus and system to enable dynamic offloading and execution of compute tasks are described. In split CU-DU RAN architectures, the CU-CP is connected with multiple compute control functions (CF) and service functions (SF) that have different computing hardware/software capabilities. Different architectures depend on whether the SF is collocated with the CU-UP, the CU-UP and SF only serve compute messages, a compute message is supplied directly to the CU-UP or also traverses the CU-CP. In response to reception from a UE of a compute message containing data for computation being sent to the CU-CP through the DU, the CU-CP sends the data to the SF with identifiers and sends the result to the UE.

OFFLINE SIDELOADING FOR ENROLLMENT OF DEVICES IN A MOBILE DEVICE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Systems herein allow an administrator to efficiently enroll computing devices into a mobile device management system, even when those computing devices are offline and not connected to the system. A management server can include a console that allows the administrator to enroll an offline computing device by selecting an offline enrollment option on a registration record. This option can cause the management server to create a device record, indicating the computing device is enrolled. The management server can also create and save a provisioning file onto a storage device, such as a USB drive. Assets, such as graphics and applications, specified by the device record are also saved onto the storage device. The storage device can be physically connected to the computing device, at which point the provisioning file guides automatic installation of the assets and implementation of device settings and compliance rules specified by the device record.

The computer-implemented method for automated traffic flow control using domain name for one or more devices enabled for connectivity includes receiving device information for the one or more devices; receiving domain name information for at least one domain name that the one or more devices are allowed to access, denied to access or a combination thereof; associating the at least one domain name with one or more internet protocol (IP) addresses; monitoring the at least one domain for change in the one or more IP addresses for that domain; and updating the one or more IP addresses of the domain name if any change in the one or more IP addresses for that domain is found.

Band steering for a low power device

An access point is configured to communicate with a wireless client device over a plurality of wireless communication channels. The wireless client device has an active operation state and a standby operation state. The access point detects a property of each of a first wireless communication channel and a second wireless communication channel, and applies a policy to the detected properties to select one of the first wireless communication channel and the second wireless communication channel. While the wireless client device is in the active operation state, the access point steers the client device to communicate with the access point over the selected channel.
