Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for physical layer configuration continuity during radio resource control (RRC) restoration. One method includes receiving, by a network node, a request for radio resource control (RRC) re-establishment or resume from a user equipment. The request comprises an indication of parameter continuity that was a part of the user equipment's configuration. The method may further include, when it is determined to accept the request for radio resource control (RRC) re-establishment or resume, generating a radio resource control (RRC) message for facilitating continued configuration of lower layer parameters for the user equipment.
