Abstract

Disclosure are techniques for allocating aggregation devices in a lawful intercept system. In an embodiment, a method includes maintaining a list of point of interception aggregation (PAG) functions in a network function repository function (NRF) of a cellular network upon instantiation of the PAG functions; receiving a lawful intercept (LI) request; querying the NRF to determine a respective PAG function; and associating a point of interception (POI) function with the respective PAG function.
