Abstract

This disclosure describes an APN based group congestion control mechanism. The mechanism utilizes a Group Defining APN (GDA) for defining terminal groups. To add a terminal to a particular terminal group, the network operator need only add a GDA to a list of APNs already included in the terminal's subscription data.
