    摘要: A policy control method includes receiving, by a policy control network element, an update request message carrying information about a first mobility management network element from the first mobility management network element, updating, by the policy control network element according to the update request message, information about a second mobility management network element in information of a policy association corresponding to a terminal that is stored in the policy control network element to information about the first mobility management network element. The policy control network updates the information about the second mobility management network element in the information of the policy association to the information about the first mobility management network element instead of deleting the policy association and re-establishing a policy association with the first mobility management network element.

    摘要: A method, apparatus, and system for disaster recovery of an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), where the method includes: triggering a redundant Call Session Control Function (CSCF); obtaining, by the redundant CSCF, user backup data of registered IMS Private User Identities (IMPIs) that are associated with IMPUs and user service configuration data of IMS Public User Identities (IMPUs) in an IMS subscription from a network storage entity of a user; and recovering, by the redundant CSCF, a corresponding service according to the obtained user backup data of the registered IMPIs and user service configuration data of the IMPUs in the IMS subscription. Hence, the one-IMPU multi-IMPI, one-IMPI multi-IMPU, or multi-IMPI multi-IMPU service can be recovered, and this enables the user to have better service continuity experiences.

    摘要: A method for determining a network quality of service (QoS) flow, a network element, and a system include receiving, by a session management function network element, a policy and charging control (PCC) rule from a policy control function network element, where the PCC rule includes QoS parameters, the QoS parameters include standardized QoS parameter indication information and a non-standardized QoS parameter, and the non-standardized QoS parameter includes at least one attribute comprised in a standardized QoS parameter corresponding to the standardized QoS parameter indication information and a corresponding value of the at least one attribute, and determining, by the session management function network element based on the standardized QoS parameter indication information and the non-standardized QoS parameter, a QoS flow corresponding to the PCC rule.

    摘要: A method, an apparatus, and a system for processing registration backup data are disclosed. A Serving Call Session Control Function (S-CSCF) receives a request from a User Equipment (UE) and judges whether the request carries multi-registration information so as to decide whether to add multi-registration indication information into a Server Assignment Request (SAR) message sent to a Home Subscriber Server (HSS). The HSS performs operations according to whether the SAR message carries the multi-registration indication information, therefore avoiding unnecessary signaling interactions, reducing the signaling load, avoiding unnecessary data processing between the HSS and the S-CSCF, and saving system resources.

    摘要: In a location change reporting method, a session management function entity receives from a mobility management entity information including location change information of UE in a first presence reporting area (PRA), an identity of the first PRA, and an identity of a PRA set that includes the first PRA. The session management function entity identifies, based on the identity of the PRA set and locally stored PRA subscription information, a subscription entity that subscribes to location change events of the UE in the PRA set, and sends the identity of the first PRA and the location change information of the UE in the first PRA to the subscription entity.
