Abstract
A Mobile communication network having a wireless transceiver, configured to perform wireless transmission and reception to and from a UE, and a controller, coupled to the wireless transceiver. The controller is configured to: send a message to the UE via the wireless transceiver, wherein the message comprises information for indicating an order and a priority of reading Access Point Name (APN) parameters or Data Network Name (DNN) parameters from a plurality of input sources, and wherein each input source comprises an APN value or a DNN value. The message comprises an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Management Object (MO), and the information is provided by an IMS configuration parameter in the IMS MO.
Claims14
A Mobile communication network, comprising:
- a wireless transceiver, configured to perform wireless transmission and reception to and from a UE;
- and
- a controller, coupled to the wireless transceiver, and configured to:
- send a message to the UE via the wireless transceiver, wherein the message comprises information for indicating an order and a priority of reading Access Point Name (APN) parameters or Data Network Name (DNN) parameters from a plurality of input sources, and wherein each input source comprises an APN value or a DNN value;
- and
- wherein the message comprises an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Management Object (MO), and the information is provided by an IMS configuration parameter in the IMS MO,
- wherein the APN value or the DNN value is provided by a Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) in the UE, by the mobile communication network, or by user via UE settings menu or any other method based on a value of the IMS configuration parameter in the IMS MO.
A method, comprising:
- sending a message from a mobile communication network to a User Equipment (UE), wherein the message comprises information for indicating an order and a priority of reading Access Point Name (APN) parameters or Data Network Name (DNN) parameters from a plurality of input sources, and wherein each input source comprises an APN value or a DNN value;
- and
- receiving a request establishment of a Packet Data Network (PDN) connection or a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session by using the APN value or the DNN value based on the information from the UE,
- wherein the message comprises an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Management Object (MO), and the information is provided by an IMS configuration parameter in the IMS MO,
- wherein the APN value or the DNN value is provided by a Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) in the UE, by the mobile communication network, or by user via UE settings menu or any other method based on a value of the IMS configuration parameter in the IMS MO.
