Claims16
A method implemented at an application server, comprising:
- sending to a network device a create request related to a session between the application server and a user equipment (UE), including a Media Access Control (MAC) address of the UE and at least one Ethernet flow information of the UE, wherein the create request indicates setting a chargeable party at a session set-up;
- receiving a create response indicating whether the create request is granted or not granted from the network device;
- sending to the network device a chargeable party update request including the at least one Ethernet flow information of the UE;
- and
- receiving a chargeable party update response indicating whether the chargeable party update request is granted or not granted from the network device.
