Access point name (APN) identies an IP packet data network (PDN), that a mobile data user wants to communicate with. In addition to identifying a PDN, an
APN may also be used to dene the type of service, (eg connection to wireless application protocol (WAP) server, multimedia messaging service (MMS)), that
is provided by the PDN. APN is used in 3GPP data access networks, eg general packet radio service (GPRS), evolved packet core (EPC).
