Hi Domi,
Thanks for your answer.
I have a commercial epc that is able to do it: I can "ignore the initial
APN", then set a default APN. This way, whatever the APN is configured
in the UE, I can decide what APN is used. I was wondering if nextepc can
do the same.
It's convenient in my case, because the end users must be able to change
their ISP without reconfiguring their UE (in some case, they even don't
have access to the UE configuration), and I dedicated one APN per ISP.
Regards,
Mathieu

Hi Matthieu,
I might be wrong here, but I don’t think there is a way allowed in the standards to
ignore the UE’s APN. That’s why you can end up even in commercial networks without mobile
data access - not knowing the correct APN will make it impossible for the network to route
your traffic. Most networks when you connect using an incorrect APN tend to send a text
message containing the correct one to fix the issue in the UE.
Naturally I’d assume there is a way to hack into nextEPC to ignore the UEs APN but I’d
consider this a hack, not a real solution. I think it is better to make sure UEs are
provisioned correctly.
Just my 2cents worth of opinion :)
Cheers,
Domi
