Embodiment Construction

[0039] The invention is described herein with reference to certain non-limiting examples and what are presently considered to be conceivable embodiments of the invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the invention is by no means limited to these examples, but can be applied more broadly.

[0040] It is noted that the following description of the invention and its embodiments refers primarily to specifications used as non-limiting examples for certain exemplary network configurations and deployments. That is, the present invention and its embodiments are primarily described in relation to 3GPP specifications that serve as non-limiting examples for certain exemplary network configurations and deployments that serve as exemplary implementations for such descriptions non-limiting example of applicability of the example. Accordingly, the description of the exemplary embodiments given herein makes specific reference to terms that are directly related thereto. Such...

Abstract

There are provided measures for centralized IP address management for distributed gateways. Such measures exemplarily comprise management of IP addresses for hosts being linked with a plurality of distributed gateway entities via a first host-specific tunnel at a centralized controller entity, and control of the plurality of distributed gateway entities in terms of Internet protocol address management from the centralized controller entity via a second host-specific tunnel on the basis of the managed Internet protocol addresses for the hosts. Accordingly, control-plane and user-plane functions may be separated between the centralized controller entity and the plurality of distributed gateway entities.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to centralized IP address management for distributed gateways. More specifically, the present invention exemplarily relates to measures (including methods, apparatuses and computer program products) for implementing centralized IP address management for distributed gateways. Background technique [0002] In modern communication systems including both mobile and fixed networks, typically IP based, a significant future growth in data traffic is expected. Efforts are therefore being made to cope with such projected data traffic growth in both IP-based mobile and fixed communication systems. Such efforts include, for example, optimization-related changes in the current EPC network architecture. [0003] It is to be noted that although the following mainly refers to 3GPP mobile networks, such reference is made by way of example only, and thus similar considerations apply equally to other types of mobile and / or fixed networks....
