Abstract
A method performed by a first intermediate node in an ongoing communication session between a first network node and a second network node in a communication network is provided. The method comprises: receiving an indication that handover of a first network node from a first radio access network to a second radio access network has occurred during the ongoing communication session; generating a message comprising a header, wherein the header identifies the second radio access network; and transmitting the message to a second intermediate node in the ongoing communication session.

A method performed by a first intermediate node in an ongoing communication session between a first network node and a second network node in a communication network, the method comprising:
- receiving an indication that handover of a first network node from a first radio access network to a second radio access network has occurred during the ongoing communication session;
- generating a message comprising a header, wherein the header identifies the second radio access network;
- and
- transmitting the message to a second intermediate node in the ongoing communication session.

A first intermediate node in an ongoing communication session between a first network node and a second network node in a communication network, the first intermediate node comprising:
- processing circuitry;
- and
- a memory containing program code which, when executed by the processing circuitry, causes the first intermediate node to:
- receive an indication that handover of a first network node from a first radio access network to a second radio access network has occurred during the ongoing communication session;
- generate a message comprising a header, wherein the header identifies the second radio access network;
- and
- transmit the message to a second intermediate node in the ongoing communication session.
