Abstract

In accordance with the occurrence of a mobility event whereby user equipment moves from accessing a source network to accessing a target network in a communication system environment, the user equipment sends a control plane message to the target network comprising an integrity verification parameter associated with the source network and an integrity verification parameter associated with the target network. By providing integrity verification parameters for both the source network and the target network in an initial message sent by the user equipment to the mobility management element of the target network, the mobility management element of the target network can verify the user equipment on its own or seek the assistance of the source network.
