Abstract
When an EBI needs to be assigned to an EPS bearer to which a QoS flow is mapped in an EPS, whether user plane security enforcement information of a PDU session matches user plane encryption protection information of the EPS is determined, that is, whether a user plane capability of the EPS can meet a user plane security requirement of the PDU session is determined. The EBI is assigned to the EPS bearer only when the requirement is met. Otherwise, the EBI is not assigned to the EPS bearer or the EBI is released if the EBI has been assigned. In this way, when UE moves from a 5GS to the EPS, the EPS bearer is prevented from using an EBI that does not meet the user plane security requirement for data transmission.
