Abstract

Solutions are disclosed that provide failure handling for missing session parameters in wireless network messaging. When a service-based interface (SBI) message received by a control plane node, such as a session management function (SMF), is missing a session parameter (e.g., allocation and retention priority (ARP) or bandwidth value), rather than responding with a rejection, failure handling fills in the missing parameter using pre-configured tables. The type of received message, along with another parameter in the message, such as a QoS identifier, is used in a mapping table to identify a default value to supply as the missing parameter. This approach may be used in other network messages in which certain parameter values are commonly used together in particular types of messages, such as the given example of QoS identifier, ARP value, and bandwidth value.
