Systems and methods for handling a registration storm

摘要

Systems and methods for user device registration are disclosed. In certain embodiments, at least a first edge device in a group of edge devices enters a mass-restart mode. The first edge device receives a request for registration from a user device and determines whether the user device is currently registered through the first edge device. The first edge device generates a notification associated with the user device if the user device is not currently registered through the first edge device. A second edge device in the group of edge devices receives the notification and determines whether the user device is currently registered through the second edge device based on the notification. Registration information about the user device is deleted from the second edge device if the user device is currently registered through the second edge device.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method for user device registration, comprising:
entering a mass-restart mode by an edge device; sending a first message from the edge device to a user device that is registered through the edge device; waiting for a second message from the user device; deleting registration information about the user device from the edge device based on a status of the second message; and wherein said entering the mass-restart mode by the edge device further comprises: collecting a registration count at the edge device for at least a first time period; computing an average registration rate based on the registration count and the at least first time period; and entering the mass-restart mode by the edge device if the average registration rate exceeds a threshold.
