Abstract
Mobile network services are performed in a mobile data network in a way that is transparent to most of the existing equipment in the mobile data network. The mobile data network includes a radio access network and a core network. A breakout appliance in the radio access network breaks out data coming from a basestation, and performs one or more mobile network services at the edge of the mobile data network based on the broken out data. The breakout appliance includes multiple states that support manufacturing, testing, production, tamper detection and end of life, and the functions of the breakout appliance vary according to its state.
