Abstract
A service flow processing method includes obtaining, by a terminal, policy information of a service flow, where the policy information includes at least one of a flow steering policy, a flow steering mode, and link condition information for transmitting the service flow, and a packet data unit (PDU) session to which the service flow belongs supports a plurality of access technologies, and processing, by the terminal, the service flow based on the policy information.
Claims20
A method implemented by a user plane function (UPF) network element, wherein the method comprises:
- obtaining policy information of a service flow, wherein the policy information comprises a flow steering mode and link condition information of a link for transmitting the service flow, and wherein the link condition information comprises at least one of a link delay threshold value or a link packet loss rate threshold value;
- determining link status information of a current link that does not meet the link condition information;
- and
- processing, based on the flow steering mode, the service flow.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a memory configured to store instructions;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:
- obtain policy information of a service flow, wherein the policy information comprises a flow steering mode and link condition information of a link for transmitting the service flow, and wherein the link condition information comprises at least one of a link delay threshold value or a link packet loss rate threshold value;
- determine link status information of a current link that does not meet the link condition information;
- and
- process, based on the flow steering mode, the service flow.
A computer program product comprising instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium that, when executed by one or more processors, a processor, cause a communications apparatus to:
- obtain policy information of a service flow, wherein the policy information comprises a flow steering mode and link condition information of a link for transmitting the service flow, and wherein the link condition information comprises at least one of a link delay threshold value or a link packet loss rate threshold value;
- determine link status information of a current link that does not meet the link condition information;
- and
- process, based on the flow steering mode, the service flow.
