Abstract

A flexible rule engine allows a network operator to dynamically create and modify business rules that govern a subscriber's access to a communications network. The flexible rule engine governs subscriber transitions between various session states by testing for subscriber conditions, network conditions, and then performing specified actions based on these conditions. A rule editor provides the network operator with the ability to compose, edit and delete one or more rules in real time, using an appropriate user interface.
