Abstract

Servers, computer-readable media, and methods are disclosed for halting forwarding of traffic of an application exceeding a per-application data usage limitation. For example, a processor deployed in a telecommunication network may detect traffic between a third-party device and an endpoint device, associate the traffic with an application of a plurality of applications running on the endpoint device, determine, based upon a volume of the traffic, that a per-application data usage limitation for the application is exceeded, and halt forwarding of the traffic when the per-application data usage limitation for the application is exceeded.
