Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for supporting multiple access point names for trusted wireless local area network (LAN.) In one method, the method includes receiving a packet at a mobile access gateway from a UE operating in a trusted wireless LAN, determining at the mobile access gateway an access point name (APN) associated with the received packet, and analyzing a binding update list (BUL) table to identify an IP address of the UE used by the determined APN. The method further includes modifying a source IP address of the received packet to the IP address of the UE used by the determined APN, and transmitting the packet to a home network associated with the APN.
