    Abstract: It is provided a method, comprising creating a flow request for a probing data flow through a wireline network and a wireless network, wherein the wireless network is encapsulated towards the wireline network by a translator; inquiring from a controller of the wireline network a schedule for the probing data flow; deriving, based on the schedule, a quality indicator of a first data session to carry an expected data flow in the wireless network; deciding if a second data session in the wireless network has to be added, removed, or modified in order to carry an expected data flow, based on the derived quality indicator; informing the translator that the second data session in the wireless network has to be added, removed, or modified if the second data session in the wireless network has to be added, removed, or modified in order to carry the expected data flow.

    Abstract: It is provided a method comprising monitoring if a reservation request is received from a controller, wherein the reservation request requests to reserve resources for a data session having a first quality of service; translating the reservation request into a request for providing a data session of a wireless network having a requested quality of service corresponding to the first quality of service if the reservation request is received; forwarding the request for providing the data session to the wireless network; translating an indication of a provided quality of service of the data session comprised in a response to the request for providing the data session received from the wireless network into an indication of a reserved quality of service corresponding to the provided quality of service; responding to the reservation request by a reservation response; wherein the reservation response comprises the indication of the reserved quality of service.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for a 3GPP bridge for time sensitive networks. In some example embodiment, there may be provided an apparatus causes to at least: receive at least one management object, the at least one management object comprising routing information between an ingress port at a 3GPP bridge and an egress port at the 3 GPP bridge; determine, for the ingress port and the egress port combination, at least one quality of service constraint to provide a delay guarantee towards a destination media access control address, the determination based on the received at least one management object and one or more bridge delays indicating a delay between the ingress port and the egress port; and cause a change, based on the determined at least one quality of service constraint, to a protocol data unit session carrying a time sensitive network flow.

    Abstract: There are provided measures for realization of service level agreements in network slice scenarios joining multiple network capabilities. Such measures exemplarily comprise, as a slice management entity, receiving a network resource combination request including information on demand network capabilities and demand network features over a slice geographical area, transmitting, to an area base units repository, a request for at least one area base unit fulfilling at least one predetermined criterion in relation to said network resource combination request, receiving, from said area base units repository, area base units fulfilling said at least one predetermined criterion out of stored area base units, generating at least one area base units join (wherein each of said at least one area base units join includes a combination of at least one area base unit of said area base units, for each of said at least one area base units join, combined network capabilities of said combination of said at least one area base unit are the same over a join geographical area corresponding to said area base units join and combined network features of said combination of said at least one area base unit are uniform over said join geographical area corresponding to said area base units join, and for each of said at least one area base units join, said combined network capabilities and network features of said combination of said at least one area base unit meet said demand network capabilities and demand network features over said join geographical area corresponding to said area base units join), selecting at least one selected area base units join of said at least one area base units join such that a combination of join geographical areas of said at least one selected area base units join covers said slice geographical area, and combining said at least one selected area base units join as a network resource combination.
