A networked system includes Infrastructure Provider (InP) system(s) that couple a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) system to physical Radio Access Network (RAN) resources. The InP system(s) are configured to provide a direct MVNO RAN resource management system for the MVNO system that virtualizes a portion of the physical RAN resources to provide virtualized RAN resources that are allocated to the MVNO system. When the direct MVNO RAN resource management system receives a virtualized RAN resource command from the MVNO system that is directed to the virtualized RAN resources, it automatically translates the virtualized RAN resource command to a physical RAN resource command that is configured to cause the performance of management operation(s) associated with the portion of the physical RAN resources, and then automatically transmits the physical RAN resource command to cause the performance of the management operation(s) associated with the portion of the physical RAN resources.

Direct MVNO RAN resource management system

Information handling systems and methods for deploying and managing mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) utilize a MVNO provisioning agent for communicating to a direct access manager resource requests associated with a Radio Access Network (RAN) in a network service provider (NSP). The direct access manager uses the resource requests to allocate resources in one or more RANs. The MVNO provisioning agent RAN receives endpoint information and a confirmation from the direct access manager regarding the allocated resources and passes the information to a MVNO deploying agent that deploys a customized MVNO Evolved Packet Core (EPC) in an EPC container. An MVNO association agent initiates a connection between RAN MVNO agents and the MVNO EPC to connect the deployed MNVO with the NSP, such that resource parameters may be communicated, e.g., in one or more control planes, from the MVNO EPC to the RAN MVNO agent(s) to control the allocated resources.
