Abstract
A device is configured to receive an alarm message from a particular device that received a radio resource control request from a client device. The alarm message may indicate that a threshold access limit to an operator network is satisfied by the client device or that a particular protocol is being used by the client device. The device may determine a policy associated with the client device. The policy may indicate a policy rule associated with a policy action to be taken if the policy rule is violated. The device may determine the policy rule is violated based on the alarm message received from the particular device. The device may instruct the particular device to perform the policy action, by accepting or rejecting the radio resource control request, based on the policy rule being violated.
