Abstract

A method performed by a serving Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) serving a wireless communication device. The method includes receiving, from a target AMF, a request for information regarding the wireless communication device. The method also includes submitting, in reply to the request for information, a current user equipment (UE) context of the wireless communication device and an identifier of an ongoing non 3rd Generation Partnership Project (non-3GPP) access Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session for the wireless communication device. The method further includes notifying a Non-3GPP Interworking Function (N3IWF) to remove the current UE context, wherein the N3IWF is configured to enable the wireless communication device to attach to the core network over non-3GPP access.
