<p>Method and arrangement in a charging function(100) to support charging for services in a communications network (102). When receiving (1:2) a request for charging information from a session control node (402a) serving a communication device (D), the charging function determines(1:3) at least one characteristic of the device, e.g. by fetching it from a device characteristics repository (106) where such device characteristics are maintained for devices in the network. The charging function then sets(1:4)a charging level for a service requested or consumed by the device, based on the characteristic (s) of the device, and sends (1:5) a response with the set charging level to the session control node,to enable device characteristic dependent charging for the requested or consumed service.</p> |
