In some examples, a communication device receives a content-address associated with a network slice. The communication device selects the wireless network slice, and in response, transfers the content-address. The communication device uses the network slice in response to transferring the content address.

Various embodiments include a system that comprises radio circuitry, processing circuitry, and user circuitry of a wireless user device. The radio circuitry wirelessly transfers a registration request to a wireless communication network to register and receive wireless data service. The processing circuitry utilizes security credentials provisioned to the wireless user device to establish an encrypted tunnel with an external gateway over the wireless communication network. The security credentials are stored in a processing circuitry memory that is isolated from the user circuitry. The radio circuitry wirelessly transfers a session request to the wireless communication network for a data session with the external gateway. The user circuitry configured to generate user data for the data session. The processing circuitry routes user data for the data session through the encrypted tunnel to the external gateway.

There is provided a method of managing wireless data traffic for a wireless end-user device. The method includes associating the wireless end-user device with a wireless data service that defines a set of one or more permitted Internet access destinations, receiving, at a network intermediary configured to mediate Internet access for the wireless end-user device, a request from the wireless end-user device to access data associated with a first Internet access destination of the set of one or more permitted Internet access destinations, providing, via the network intermediary, the wireless end-user device with access to the first Internet access destination in response to the request, measuring data traffic exchanged between the wireless end-user device and the network intermediary in connection with the access to the first Internet access destination, and classifying the measured data traffic as being associated with the first one of the first Internet access destinations.

A wireless communication system delivers a wireless data service to a wireless communication device using content-addressing. The wireless communication system generates a content-address from a data set. The wireless communication system stores the content-address in association with the data set. The wireless communication system encrypts the content-address with a system key and transfers the encrypted content-address to the wireless communication device. The wireless communication device decrypts the encrypted content-address with a user key to obtain the content address. The wireless communication device re-encrypts the content-address with the user key. The wireless communication system receives the re-encrypted content-address from the wireless communication device and decrypts the re-encrypted content-address with the system key to obtain the content-address. The wireless communication system retrieves the data set from the memory circuitry with the decrypted content-address. The wireless communication system delivers the wireless data service to the wireless communication device based on the retrieved data set.

A wireless communication network serves wireless data services to wireless user devices. In the wireless communication network, communication circuitry receives a registration from a source Network Repository Function (NRF) for a registering Network Function (NF). The communication circuitry transfers the registration to processing circuitry. The processing circuitry determines when the source NRF has an excessive amount of the NF type. When the source NRF does not have the excessive amount of the NF type, the processing circuitry a registration approval to the communication circuitry. The communication circuitry transfers the registration approval to the source NRF. When the source NRF has an excessive amount of the NF type, the processing circuitry selects a target NRF based on the geolocation of the registering NF. The processing circuitry transfers a registration redirection that indicates the target NRF to the communication circuitry. The communication circuitry transfers the registration redirection to the source NRF.

In a wireless communication system, a source access node receives a security policy for a User Equipment (UE) from a wireless network core. The wireless network core and the UE establish security context over the source access node. The wireless network core and the UE exchange user data over the source access node based on the security context. The source access node handsover the wireless UE to a target access node and transfers the security policy for the wireless UE to the target access node. The target access node signals the wireless network core to establish new security context for the wireless UE responsive to the security policy. The wireless network core and the wireless UE establish new security context over the target access node. The wireless network core and the UE exchange additional user data over the target access node based on the new security context.

A Network Exposure Function (NEF) charges a user for a wireless data service. The NEF exposes a service charge for the wireless data service to the user. The NEF receives a user request for the wireless data service at the service charge. The NEF directs a wireless communication network to deliver the wireless data service to the user in response to the user request. The NEF receives network data from the wireless communication network that indicates a delivery of the wireless data service to the user. The NEF exposes service data to the user in response to the network data. The service data characterizes the delivery of the wireless data service and indicates the service charge.

A visited network receives communication context from a home distributed ledger node in a home network and stores the communication context in a visited distributed ledger node in the visited network. The home distributed ledger node and the visited distributed ledger node comprise a distributed ledger that is shared by the home network and the visited network. To serve a User Equipment (UE) that is visiting from the home network, the visited network retrieves the communication context for the home network from the visited distributed ledger node and exchanges network signaling with the home network based on the communication context. The visited network delivers a wireless data service to the UE that is visiting from the home network in response to the network signaling.

A wireless communication network performs a wireless handover of a user device, and in response to the handover, transfers signaling to reestablish security context with the user device. The wireless communication network exchanges security information with the user device to reestablish the security context in response to the signaling. The wireless communication network wirelessly exchanges user data with the user device based on the security context.
