Abstract
A traffic hub used in mobile communications for data offloading, diversion and security. The traffic hub includes an Evolved Packet Data Gateway (ePDG) module configured to transmit and receive data packets for a mobile device in Roaming Untrusted Wi-Fi network for secured access to an Evolved Packet Core (EPC) network, a Trusted WLAN Access Gateway (TWAG) module configured to transmit and receive the data packets for a mobile device in Roaming Trusted Wi-Fi network for secured access to the EPC network and a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) Tunneling Protocol (GTP) Proxy (GProxy) module, the GProxy module being the core module of the traffic hub configured to enforce policy rules on the data packets prior to exchanging the data packets with logically selected Peer Gateway General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) Serving Node (GGSN)/Packet Data Network (PDN) Gateway (PGW) and ePDG/TWAG nodes. The GProxy also operates as a GTP-aware firewall to protect Home GGSN/PGW nodes from malicious traffic.
