Problems solved by technology

[0008] It is therefore understandable that since third parties may have very different and specific needs, such an architecture would not necessarily adapt well and would in any case lack flexibility

Embodiment Construction

[0069] figure 1 In its context a communication system 1 according to the invention is shown which, in a particular embodiment, allows a communication device 2 to benefit from a network connection offered by a third party 3RD via an operator (OP) network NW. The network NW is here eg a 5G telecommunications network. However, this assumption itself is not limiting and other types of telecommunication networks may be considered, such as wired communication networks (optical fiber or ADSL).

[0070] A third party here means any party other than the network NW operator OP, with whom an agreement is made with the operator OP to grant to it a virtual slice of the network NW (denoted as SLI(3RD)) to which communication devices managed by the third party can receive into this virtual slice in order to communicate with other devices and benefit from network connectivity, in other words access to all resources of third parties connected to the same network slice, and possibly to other r...

Abstract

The management method enables the communication device to benefit from a network connectivity provided by a third party via the operator network, and comprises: - a step (E30) of receiving, from the communication device, a request for attachment to the operator network and an identifier of the third party; - a step (E40) of obtaining, by using the third-party identifier, a piece of contact information of an instantiated software control gateway for controlling access to a section of the network allocated by the operator to the third party, this piece of contact information comprising a reachability address of the software control gateway or an identifier of the section of the network allocated to the third party and for which an access is controlled by the software control gateway; and - astep (E50) of sending a message to the device, containing the piece of contact information and inviting the communication device to attach to the software control gateway using this contact information.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the general field of telecommunications. [0002] The invention relates more particularly to the control of access to a communication device when it benefits from a network connection offered via the operator's network but provided by a third party separate from the network operator. Background technique [0003] Accordingly, the invention applies in a specific but non-limiting manner to connected objects (regardless of the nature of these objects, such as digital tablets, connected light bulbs, connected vehicles, sensors, etc.) that embed network connections that are not supported by provided directly by network operators, but by third parties. [0004] With the advent of fifth-generation telecommunications networks (5G) and network functions virtualization (or NFV), the infrastructure used to host these network functions, from radio functions to routing functions, is intended to take the form of standard computer in...
