Abstract
A method in an electronic device provides a mechanism for maintaining application mobility in a communication network, such as a content distribution network. In one exemplary embodiment, a user device transitions from a source content server in a first access network of the communication network to a destination content server in a second access network of the communication network. The source content server hands off responsibility for serving the content to the destination content server. In some embodiments, a tunnel is created between the source content server and the destination content server.
