## Abstract

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more specifically, a method and an apparatus for remote-accessing are disclosed. A method for transmitting remote access indication information, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: generating from a first network node remote access packet data network (PDN) connection indication information with respect to PDN connection of a user equipment (UE); and transmitting the remote access PDN connection indication information from the first network node to the UE, wherein the remote access PDN connection indication information can express whether the PDN connection of the UE is the remote access PDN connection.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for transmitting remote access indication information, comprising:
generating remote access PDN connection indication information regarding Packet Data Network (PDN) connection of a user equipment (UE) in a first network node; and
transmitting the remote access PDN connection indication information from the first network node to the UE,
wherein the remote access SIPTO PDN connection indication information indicates whether the UE PDN connection is a remote access PDN connection.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the remote access PDN connection indication information further includes information on at least one of a type of remote access PDN connection or a type of a handover of the UE.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the remote access PDN connection indication information is defined as charging-related information for identifying the remote access PDN connection.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, further comprising:
transmitting the remote access PDN connection indication information from the first network node to a PDN gateway node through a serving gateway node.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The method according to claim 4, wherein:
through the PDN gateway node, a charging system applied to the remote access PDN connection is determined on the basis of the remote access PDN connection indication information.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the remote access PDN connection indication information transmitted to the UE is defined as specific information indicating a connectivity type selected for the PDN connection of the UE.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein:
whether a data session of the PDN connection of the UE is maintained during a handover of the UE is determined on the basis of the remote access PDN connection indication information.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein:
information on whether the remote access for the UE is permitted is provided to the first network node by a database.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The method according to claim 8, wherein:
wherein the information on whether the remote access is permitted is defined based on at least one of a network in which a subscriber is located, the UE is located, or a target network of the remote access.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The method according to claim 8, wherein:
wherein whether the remote access is permitted is defined according to whether LIPA (Local Internet Protocol Access) is permitted.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

The method according to claim 8, wherein:
the database is a network node for storing and managing at least one of subscriber information of the UE, Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) information, or group information for Managed Remote Access (MRA); and
the information on whether the remote access is permitted is contained in at least one of the subscriber information, the CSG information, or the MRA group information.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the first network node is a Mobility Management Entity (MME).

### Claim 13

A method for receiving remote access indication information, comprising:
receiving remote access Packet Data Network (PDN) connection indication information indicating whether a PDN connection of a user equipment (UE) is a remote access PDN connection from a first network node,
wherein the remote access PDN connection indication information is generated in the first network node.

### Claim 14

An apparatus for transmitting remote access indication information, comprising:
a transceiver module configured to transmit or receive a signal to or from an external part;
a processor configured to control the transceiver module,
wherein the processor is configured to generate remote access indication information regarding Packet Data Network (PDN) connection of a user equipment (UE), and is configured to transmit the remote access PDN connection indication information to the UE through the transceiver module,
wherein the remote access PDN connection indication information indicates whether the UE PDN connection is a remote access PDN connection.

### Claim 15

An apparatus for receiving remote access indication information, comprising:
a transceiver module configured to transmit or receive a signal to or from an external part;
a processor configured to control the transceiver module,
wherein the processor is configured to receive remote access Packet Data Network (PDN) connection indication information indicating whether a PDN connection of a user equipment (UE) is a remote access PDN connection from a first network node through the transceiver module,
wherein the remote access PDN connection indication information is generated in the first network node.
