Policy-based management has been widely studied in recent years. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has recently introduced the policy-based networking as a means of managing IP networks according to the new constraints defined in the network, such as the guarantee of the quality of service (QoS). Network management based on policies, is modelled as a state machine, which moves from one state to another according to the enforced policy. The IETF policy-based networking is defined for application to network nodes. However, some recent work suggests extending the policy-based networking to the end-user terminals. In this paper, we present an analysis of such an extension and we propose some possible solutions to support new policy-aware terminals. In addition, we present AAA, QoS and mobility management that user such a policy-aware terminals.
