Abstract:
The present disclosure provides the UE with ePDG information that includes a list of networks that provide ePDG in the area where the WLAN access point is located. In an aspect, the list of networks may include a list of PLMN IDs. By receiving the ePDG information containing the list of networks that provide ePDG in the area where the WLAN access point is located, the UE may be prevented from selecting an incorrect ePDG. In aspects of the disclosure, a method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. In one aspect, the apparatus associates with an access point of a wireless communication network. In another aspect, the apparatus receives, from the access point, ePDG information comprising a list of networks that provide ePDGs in an area of the access point. In a further aspect, the apparatus selects an ePDG based on the ePDG information.
