11. A computer-implemented method for managing communications via a communications network, comprising:

obtaining, at a first gateway computing device, a request to establish communications via the communication network;

determining, by the first gateway computing device, information corresponding to a static provision of a second gateway computing device utilized to establish communications with the mobile device; and

obtaining, by the first gateway computing device, a subsequent communication request from the mobile device, the subsequent request corresponding to a request to initiate a communication context with the communication network via the second gateway computing device; and

determining, by the first gateway computing device, whether to select a third gateway computing device based on at least one of information associated with the mobile device,

wherein the third gateway device is an alternate of the second gateway device and wherein the mobile device does not establish a communication context with the second gateway computing device.

12. The computer-implemented method as recited in claim 11 , wherein obtaining a subsequent communication request includes obtaining a subsequent communication request including a specification of the second gateway computing device corresponding to the static provision of the second gateway computing device.

13. The computer-implemented method as recited in claim 11 , wherein obtaining a subsequent communication request includes obtaining a subsequent communication request including a specification of the second gateway computing device corresponding to a separate configuration associated with the mobile device.

14. The computer-implemented method as recited in claim 11 , wherein the information associated with the mobile device includes mobile device type information.

15. The computer-implemented method as recited in claim 11 , wherein the information associated with the mobile device includes mobile device roaming status.

16. The computer-implemented method as recited in claim 11 , wherein the information associated with the mobile device includes mobile device roaming plan.

17. The computer-implemented method as recited in claim 11 , wherein the information associated with the mobile device includes subscribed service.

19. The computer-implemented method as recited in claim 11 , wherein the information associated with the mobile device includes use description.

20. The computer-implemented method as recited in claim 11 , wherein determining whether to select a third gateway computing device includes identifying the third gateway computing device.

21. A system for managing communication in a communication network, comprising:

a mobility management anchor component, executed on one or more computing devices having a memory and a processor, for obtaining communication requests from one or more mobile devices;

one or more access gateways, executed on one or more computing devices having a memory and a processor, for facilitating communication between the one or more mobile devices that the communication network, wherein the mobility management anchor component statically provisions at least one access gateway to a mobile device based on an initial communication request; and

a policy service, executed on one or more computing devices having a memory and a processor, for determining whether to transmit subsequent communication requests by the mobile device to an alternate gateway device based on at least one of subscription information and network policy information, wherein the mobile device does not establish a communication context with a specified gateway computing device identified in the initial communication request.

22. The system as recited in claim 21 , wherein the subscription information includes mobile device type information.

23. The system as recited in claim 21 , wherein the subscription information includes mobile device roaming status.
