Abstract

In some implementations, a network device may receive a subscription request to subscribe to receive notifications associated with context data related to a registered session associated with a user equipment (UE). The registered session may be associated with a reauthorization timer that is associated with triggering the network device to provide a request for reauthorization of the registered session. The network device may provide, based on an expiration of the reauthorization timer, the request for reauthorization of the registered session.

Claims (35)

1 . A method, comprising:

receiving, by a device, a request to subscribe to receive notifications associated with context data related to a registered session; and

providing, by the device and based on an expiration of a timer, a request for reauthorization of the registered session.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a communication associated with indicating a status of the registered session.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

removing the context data from a context data resource associated with the device.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the registered session is associated with another device.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the timer is associated with the context data.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the timer is associated with causing the device to provide the request for reauthorization of the registered session.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a communication indicating that the registered session is inactive.

8 . A device, comprising:

one or more processors configured to:

provide a request to receive notifications associated with context data related to a registered session; and

receive, based on an expiration of a timer, a request for reauthorization of the registered session.

9 . The device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

determine a status associated with the registered session.

10 . The device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

provide a communication associated with a status of the registered session.

11 . The device of claim 8 , wherein the registered session is associated with a user equipment (UE).

12 . The device of claim 8 , wherein the timer is associated with the context data.

13 . The device of claim 8 , wherein the timer is associated with reauthorization of the registered session.

14 . The device of claim 8 , wherein the device is a network device.

15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:

one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:

receive a request to subscribe to receive notifications associated with context data related to a registered session; and

provide, based on an expiration of a timer, a request for reauthorization of the registered session.

16 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the device to:

receive a communication associated with a status of the registered session.

17 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the device to:

remove the context data from a context data resource associated with the device.

18 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the registered session is associated with another device.

19 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the timer is associated with the context data.

20 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the timer is associated with causing the device to provide the request for reauthorization of the registered session.
