Abstract
Embodiments herein provide, for example, a method performed by a first network node (16), such as the NRF or UDR, for handling communication of a user equipment, UE, (10) in a communication network. The first network node registers a supported slice specific policy delivery of a third network node (18), such as a PCF; and provides to a second network node (17), such as an AMF, an indication of the supported slice specific policy delivery of the third network node (18).
Claims34
A method performed by a first network node (16) for handling communication of a user equipment, UE, (10) in a communication network, the method comprising:
- registering (301) a supported slice specific policy delivery of a third network node (18);
- and
- providing (302) to a second network node (17) an indication of the supported slice specific policy delivery of the third network node (18).
A method performed by a second network node (17) for handling communication of a user equipment, UE, (10) in a communication network, the method comprising:
- obtaining (402) from a first network node an indication of a supported slice specific policy delivery of a third network node.
A method performed by a third network node for handling communication of a user equipment, UE, (10) in a communication network, the method comprising:
- obtaining (501), from a second network node, an additional indication to inform a third network node that a UE policy is established for a purpose of untrusted non-3GPP access selection.
A method performed by a user equipment, UE, (10) for handling communication of the UE (10) in a communication network, the method comprising:
- transmitting (601) one or more access indications, which one or more access indications indicate that policy for trusted or untrusted non-3GPP Access Network is needed or requested and provides a request indication of requested Serving Network Slice Selection Assistance Information, S-NSSAI.
A first network node (16) for handling communication of a user equipment, UE, (10) in a communication network, wherein the first network node (16) is configured to:
- register a supported slice specific policy delivery of a third network node (18);
- and
- provide to a second network node (17) an indication of the supported slice specific policy delivery of the third network node (18).
A second network node (17) for handling communication of a user equipment, UE, (10) in a communication network, wherein the second network node is configured to:
- obtain from a first network node an indication of a supported slice specific policy delivery of a third network node.
A third network node for handling communication of a user equipment, UE, (10) in a communication network, wherein the third network node is configured to:
- obtain, from a second network node, an additional indication to inform the third network node that a UE policy is established for a purpose of untrusted non-3GPP access selection.
A user equipment, UE, (10) for handling communication of the UE (10) in a communication network, wherein the UE is configured to:
- transmit one or more access indications, which one or more access indications indicate that policy for trusted or untrusted non-3GPP Access Network is needed or requested and to provide indication of requested Serving Network Slice Selection Assistance Information, S-NSSAI.
