System and Method for Managing Forbidden Network Lists on a Wireless User Equipment (UE) Device

摘要

A method for managing forbidden network lists on a wireless user equipment (UE) device provides a first database structure containing a list of forbidden networks identified by corresponding network identifiers having a geographic region identifier and at least one of an access network identifier, a core network identifier, and a service network identifier. The list of forbidden networks contains a first network identifier corresponding to a first wide area cellular technology and a second network identifier corresponding to a second wide area cellular technology. The method and a device configured to use the method forbid a user of the wireless device from overriding a forbidden network from the list of forbidden networks even during manual selection.
