Abstract:
Connection configuration for Fourth Generation (4G) and Fifth Generation (5G) converged deployment may be provided. A User Equipment (UE) Usage Type (UUT) mapping may be stored, wherein the UUT mapping includes an Attribute Value Pair (AVP) for one or more UUTs. A connection to a 5G network from a 4G network may be received from a UE, wherein the connection comprises subscription information that includes a UUT the UE is subscribed to. In response to receiving the UUT, a subscriber profile for the UE in a converged packet core may be determined using the UUT mapping, and the configuration of the connection for the UE may be established based on the determined subscriber profile.
