Abstract
The present invention discloses a method and an apparatus for allocating an Internet Protocol (IP) parameter. Deployment of a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server may be determined according to a received DHCP server indication, so as to allocate an IP parameter of user equipment (UE). The DHCP server indication may indicate whether a data packet network gateway (P-GW) serves as the DHCP server, so that specific deployment of the DHCP server may be determined, and the P-GW and a trusted WLAN access gateway (TWAG) are compatible with the UE, ensuring that the UE can receive an IP parameter allocated by the P-GW, and improving accuracy of allocating the IP parameter.
