Abstract
Provided are a method of activating or deactivating terminal-based traffic steering by a terminal in a wireless communication system, and a device for supporting the same. The terminal performs terminal-based traffic steering, and transmits WLAN offloading information indicating a RAN/WLAN interworking state to a network, wherein the terminal-based traffic steering may be traffic steering on the basis of a RAN rule or ANDSF.
Claims13
A method for deactivating, by a user equipment (UE), UE-based traffic steering in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- performing the UE-based traffic steering;
- transmitting Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) offloading information indicating a Radio Access Network (RAN)/WLAN interworking state to a network;
- receiving a RAN/WLAN aggregation start command from the network;
- and
- deactivating the UE-based traffic steering when there is traffic steered to the WLAN,
- wherein the UE-based traffic steering is traffic steering based on a RAN rule or Access Network Discovery and Selection Functions (ANDSFs).
A user equipment (UE) for deactivating UE-based traffic steering in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
- a memory;
- a transceiver;
- and
- a processor connected to the memory and the transceiver,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- perform the UE-based traffic steering;
- control the transceiver to transmit Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) offloading information indicating a Radio Access Network (RAN)/WLAN interworking state to a network;
- control the transceiver to receive a RAN/WLAN aggregation start command from the network;
- and
- deactivate the UE-based traffic steering when there is traffic steered to the WLAN, and
- wherein the UE-based traffic steering is traffic steering based on a RAN rule or Access Network Discovery and Selection Functions (ANDSFs).
