ACCESS TERMINAL FOR COMMUNICATING PACKETS USING A HOME ANCHORED BEARER PATH OR A VISITED ANCHORED BEARER PATH

摘要

Communicating packets along a bearer path includes receiving a home network address and a visited network address at an access terminal. The home network address corresponds to a home anchored bearer path anchored at a home network of the access terminal. The visited network address corresponds to a visited anchored bearer path anchored at a visited network. The access terminal determines whether to use the home anchored bearer path or the visited anchored bearer path, and communicates packets using the home network address or the visited network address in accordance with the determination.
