Abstract
A device forwards a set of packets between a first network device, associated with a first network, and a second network device, associated with a second network. The set of packets may be associated with permitting access, by a set of mobile devices connected to the first network, to the second network. The device may generate and store configuration information, identifying the set of mobile devices, based on the set of packets. The device may receive, from a third network device, a request associated with establishing a communication session between the third network device and a fourth network device associated with the second network, may determine, based on the configuration information, whether a particular mobile device, associated with the request, is permitted to establish the communication session, and may selectively create the communication session based on determining that the particular mobile device is permitted to establish the communication session.
