Abstract
Wireless communication methods are described for a user plane integrity protection failure detection and handling, determination and management of integrity protection enabled data rate that exceeds or is close to exceeding a user equipment's capability or threshold, and management of integrity protection or encryption mechanisms in a dual-connectivity system that includes a master network node and a secondary network node.
Claims19
A wireless communication method, comprising:
- receiving, by a first network node from a second network node, a user plane security policy for a packet data unit (PDU) session;
- determining, by the first network node for the PDU session one or more decisions of:
- (1) an integrity protection activation or deactivation, and
- (2) an encryption activation or deactivation,
- wherein the determining is performed based on the user plane security policy;
- and
- transmitting, by the first network node to the second network node, a notification that includes the one or more decisions for the PDU session.
2-34. (canceled)
An apparatus for wireless communication configured to perform operations, comprising:
- receiving, by a first network node from a second network node, a user plane security policy for a packet data unit (PDU);
- determining, by the first network node for the PDU session, one or more decisions of:
- (1) an integrity protection activation or deactivation, and
- (2) an encryption activation or deactivation,
- wherein the determining is performed based on the user plane security policy;
- and
- transmitting, by the first network node to the second network node, a notification that includes the one or more decisions for the PDU session.
A computer-readable medium including executable instructions that when executed by at least one processor, perform operation comprising:
- receiving, by a first network node from a second network node, a user plane security policy for a packet data unit (PDU);
- determining, by the first network node for the PDU session, one or more decisions of:
- (1) an integrity protection activation or deactivation, and
- (2) an encryption activation or deactivation,
- wherein the determining is performed based on the user plane security policy;
- and
- transmitting, by the first network node to the second network node, a notification that includes the one or more decisions for the PDU session.
