Abstract

The present invention provides systems and methods and apparatuses for user plane handling. An aspect of the disclosure provides a method of user plane handling. Such a method includes sending, by a first user plane entity, to a second user plane entity, a trigger message for changing the user plane handling for a protocol data unit (PDU) session. Another aspect of the disclosure provides a method of using a shared tunnel. Such a method includes receiving from a reception tunnel by a first user plane entity a tunnel packet including a tunnel header and a data packet. Such a method further includes routing, by the first user plane entity to a second tunnel using information in the tunnel header without processing the data packet.
