Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides an access method in a wireless communications network. Authentication and authorization functions of a 3GPP AAA server for a non-3GPP access network can be integrated into a mobility management network element. Therefore, after UE accesses the non-3GPP access network, a non-3GPP access gateway may select the mobility management network element that supports the authentication and authorization functions for the non-3GPP access network as a target mobility management network element, and request the target mobility management network element to perform authentication and authorization for the UE. After authentication and authorization are performed for the UE, the non-3GPP access gateway may select a P-GW for the UE, and set up a PDN connection between the non-3GPP access gateway and the selected P-GW for the UE.

Abstract:
A communication method and apparatus, and relate to the communication field. A network side may control establishment of a connection, between a terminal device and a UPF network element, allowed to be shared by a plurality of traffic flows, thereby reducing a connection establishment process. The method includes: an SMF network element receives, from a terminal device, a first message used to request to establish or update a PDU session; and the SMF network element sends a second message to the terminal device, where the second message is used to indicate that the PDU session is successfully established or updated, the second message includes a multi-flow connection parameter, and the multi-flow connection parameter is used to indicate that a plurality of traffic flows in the PDU session are transmitted by using a same connection.
Abstract:
Embodiments of this application disclose a network access method. The method may include: receiving, by a data management network element, a request message from an access and mobility management function network element, where the request message includes identification information of user equipment and identification information of a residential gateway connected to the user equipment; determining, by the data management network element, subscription data of the residential gateway based on the identification information of the residential gateway; determining, by the data management network element, a subscription type of the user equipment based on the subscription data of the residential gateway and the identification information of the user equipment; and sending, by the data management network element, indication information of the subscription type to the access and mobility management function network element, where the subscription type indicates a subscriber or a non-subscriber of the residential gateway.
Abstract:
Embodiments of this application provide a communication method, a device, and a system, to resolve an out-of-order problem caused by per-packet traffic splitting. The method includes: determining, by a sending device, a sequence identifier of a to-be-transmitted data packet and an identifier of a first link for transmitting the data packet; and sending, by the sending device, the data packet to a receiving device, where a header of the data packet includes the identifier of the first link and the sequence identifier, the identifier of the first link is used to identify the first link, and the sequence identifier is used to identify a sending order of the data packet over the first link or in a link group to which the first link belongs.
Abstract:
This application discloses a QoS control method, device, and system, to implement QoS control when a 5G core network or another future network is accessed through a network such as, for example, a fixed network. The method, performed by an access gateway function entity, includes: obtaining a correspondence between a QoS file and a virtual local area network (VLAN) priority, where the correspondence between the QoS file and the VLAN priority includes a correspondence between a first QoS file and a first VLAN priority; sending a first message to a terminal, where the first message includes the correspondence between the QoS file and the VLAN priority; receiving an uplink data packet from the terminal, where a QoS file corresponding to the uplink data packet is the first QoS file, and the uplink data packet carries the first VLAN priority; and performing QoS control on the uplink data packet based on the first VLAN priority.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to data distribution methods. One example method includes receiving an access policy, where the access policy includes flow description information, quality information of at least two links, and a data distribution policy on the at least two links, receiving a service data flow, and in response to determining that the access policy includes flow description information of the service data flow, determining link quality information of a link used for transmitting the service data flow, and distributing the service data on the link according to the data distribution policy, where the data distribution policy is a data distribution policy that is determined based on the access policy and that is corresponding to the link quality information and the flow description information of the service data flow.
Abstract:
Connection processing methods in a multi-access scenario and apparatus are described. One example method performed by a mobility management functional entity includes receiving a first transmission message sent by an access network device. The first transmission message includes a registration request message, and the registration request message includes first multi-access indication information and identification information. It is determined, based on the first multi-access indication information and the identification information, that the user equipment has registered with a first communications network and has initiated registration with a second communications network. A procedure of registering the user equipment with the second communications network is performed. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, multi-access registration of the user equipment in the first communications network and the second communications network can be implemented.
