Abstract
A method for identifying alternate delivery endpoints for mobile originated data and monitoring reports in a communications network includes establishing, by a network exposure function (NEF) in a communications network, priority rules in a priority configuration database that define routing priority indicators corresponding to a plurality of applications functions (AFs) and receiving a service request or notification request message directed to one of the plurality of AFs from a consumer network function (NF) in the communications network. The NEF accesses a context database to validate context information associated with a destination AF belonging to the plurality of AFs. If the destination AF is unavailable or is not in proximity to the NEF, an event notification request message associated with the service request or notification request message is directed to a prioritized AF specified in the priority configuration database, wherein the prioritized AF is a peer of the destination AF.
