Abstract
A method and apparatus for managing network resource consumption. In various embodiments, excessive resource consumption within a network such as a Long Term Evolution (LTE) wireless network attributed to one or more user devices (UDs) is constrained by adjusting a Policy Control and Charging (PCC) rule associated with a network element serving the UD such that the corresponding network resource consumption level is reduced.
