Abstract
The embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a control plane node () for handling a UE () which roams into a visited network (). At least the network in which the control plane node () is comprised is a MSC network. The control plane node () transmits a create chain request message to a service chain controller (). The create chain request message is a request to create a chain of UPF nodes () that user plane packets to or from the UE () should traverse. The control plane node () receives a create chain response message from the service chain controller (). The create chain response message indicates that the requested chain has been created.
