Abstract
This application provides a terminal device management method and apparatus. The method includes: When determining that wake-up time of a terminal device is about to arrive (or arrives), a network device obtains a context of the terminal device; and when determining that sleep time of the terminal device is about to arrive (or arrives), the network device stores the context of the terminal device. In this way, when the terminal device subsequently initiates establishment of a PDU session, the UE does not need to report the context of the terminal device again, thereby reducing signaling overheads, helping avoid a signaling storm, and increasing a success rate of entering a wake-up state by the terminal device.
Claims20
A terminal device management method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a network device, wake-up time of a terminal device, and obtaining a context of the terminal device based on the wake-up time;
- and
- establishing, by the network device, a session of the terminal device based on the context of the terminal device.
A terminal device management apparatus, comprising:
- a processing unit, configured to:
- obtain wake-up time of a terminal device, and obtain a context of the terminal device based on the wake-up time;
- and establish a session of the terminal device based on the context of the terminal device.
A terminal device management apparatus, comprising:
- a processing unit, configured to:
- obtain sleep time of a terminal device, and store a context of the terminal device based on the sleep time;
- and release a session of the terminal device.
