Abstract

There is provided a method for handling a service request. The method is performed by a service communication proxy (SCP) node. The SCP node is configured to operate as an SCP between a first network function (NF) node of a service consumer and a second NF node of a service producer in the network. The method is performed in response to receiving, from the second NF node, a first response to a first request transmitted towards the second NF node via the SCP node. The first request is for the second NF node to provide a first service requested by the first NF node. Transmission of a second response is initiated towards the first NF node. The second response includes binding information irrespective of whether the binding information is present in the first response.
