Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for managing virtual private network (VPN) connectivity for data communications are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes storing, in a computer-readable medium of a computing device, packages of code and configuration data that associate the packages of code with respective virtual private networks (VPNs), the configuration data associating at least one of the packages of code with at least two of the VPNs, and, in response to a request to execute application code included in a first package of code, identifying, based on the configuration data, a first VPN associated with the first package of code and binding a communication interface of the first package of code to a connection with the first VPN.

Managing VPN connectivity for data communications

A method at a user equipment to facilitate activation and splitting of data billing between at least two parties, the method including starting, at the user equipment, a virtual subscriber identity module platform ('VSP') service on the user equipment; verifying VSP configuration information with a network server; upon verification, starting a data networking access point name ('APN') based on the configuration information on the user equipment; and setting a status indicator on the user equipment to indicate the VSP service is enabled.

Method and system for dynamic cellular networking activation for virtual SIM service

A method and apparatus for selecting a data connection IP (Internet Protocol) type during roaming. At a device a comprising a processor, a memory storing data indicative of radio access technologies and associated internet protocol (IP) types to use under different roaming conditions, and a communication interface, it is determined, using the communication interface, that roaming is occurring and a given radio access technology being used in the roaming is also determined. The data is processed to select an IP type associated with the given radio access technology. Thereafter, the IP type selected is used, during the roaming, in requests to a gateway to a network.

Method and apparatus for selecting an IP type during roaming

Described are systems and methods for managing data transfer from a communication device to a communication network over a wireless connection comprising determining that a requesting process on the communication device is authorized to establish a protected connection to the communication network; and, configuring a network interface on the communication device to allow data packets to be transmitted from the requesting process to the communication network over the protected connection, wherein the network interface is associated with the protected connection.

Managing data transfer across a network interface

A content management system and method are disclosed having one or more shared file systems located on one or more networks having a firewall. The content management system includes an explorer client, a mounting client, and a gateway. The gateway is in communication with both the explorer client and the mounting client. The explorer client forms a profile of a user device by determining the characteristics of the user device. The mounting client determines the capabilities of the one or more file systems and where content resides on each of the one or more file systems. The gateway then creates a virtual abstraction layer based on the profile of the user device and the capabilities of the one or more file systems.
