Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING TRANSPORT CONTEXT AND ON-PATH META DATA TO SUPPORT 5G ENABLED NETWORKS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/192630
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A plurality of multi-transport network context-identifiers (MTNC-IDs) may be determined. Each MTNC-ID corresponds to a forwarding path spanning between two data plane network functions, and is associated with a set of resource provisioning requirements for one or more transport networks on the forwarding path to provision transport resources for forwarding traffic on the forwarding path. A MTNC-ID may be sent to one or more transport networks on a corresponding forwarding path, where each transport network programs routers for routing data packets according to the MTNC-ID. The MTNC-ID may also be sent to a data plane network function of the corresponding forwarding path through a session management function (SMF), for associating the MTNC-ID with data packets to be transmitted on the corresponding forwarding path.
