Method and apparatus pertaining to pushing content via a push proxy gateway

摘要

A network element accepts push registrations from each of a plurality of communication devices. These push registrations can include a pushed-content address and identification of a push proxy gateway type to use when pushing the content to the communication device. Upon receiving content from a push application to push to a given communication device along with the device's address, the network element can use that address to identify the push proxy gateway type to use when forwarding the content via a push proxy gateway to the intended recipient device.
