Abstract
A network device receives signaling associated with a wireless device of a subscriber to a delay-tolerant wireless network service, and downloads a service profile of the subscriber from a Home Subscriber Server (HSS) associated with a wireless network. The network device retrieves, from the downloaded service profile, a signaling priority value associated with the subscriber or with the wireless device, and identifies whether the signaling priority value indicates a low priority value. The network device prioritizes the processing of signaling associated with a plurality of wireless devices based on whether the signaling priority value indicates the low priority value, wherein the plurality of wireless devices includes the wireless device.
