Abstract
Provided is a method and apparatus for enhancing the reliability in a wireless communication system. An operating method of a user plane function (UPF) in a wireless communication system includes: receiving network function (NF) set related information changed through an association procedure with respect to an NF; changing a profile of the NF, based on the received NF set related information; and performing an operation related to the NF, based on the changed profile.
Claims18
A method of a user plane function (UPF) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- transmitting, to a network function (NF), a packet forwarding control protocol (PFCP) association setup request;
- receiving, from the NF, a PFCP association setup response including session management function (SMF) set related information corresponding to the association setup request;
- and
- performing an operation related to a PFCP session with the NF based on the SMF set related information.
A user plane function (UPF) in a wireless communication system, the UPF comprising:
- a transceiver;
- memory;
- and
- a processor operably connected to the transceiver and the memory, the processor configured to:
- transmit, to a network function (NF), a packet forwarding control protocol (PFCP) association setup request;
- receive, from the NF, a PFCP association setup response including session management function (SMF) set related information corresponding to the association setup request;
- and
- perform an operation related to a PFCP session with the NF based on the SMF set related information.
