Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for implementing a physical service communication proxy domain A method may include interconnecting a first network element with one or more service communication proxy domains, each associated with one or several internet protocol addresses or fully qualified domain names used for the interconnection. The method may also include registering the first network element with a network repository function by sending a service operation to the network repository function. Further, the service operation may include profile information of the first network element. In addition, the profile information may include one or more service communication proxy domains, each associated with one or several internet protocol addresses or fully qualified domain names.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for the assignment of a common edge application server (EAS) for ad-hoc groups of user equipment (UE). A method may include generating or updating binding information comprising a correlation between a group identifier of an ad-hoc group of user equipment (UE) and an edge application server (EAS) identifier assigned to the ad-hoc group, and storing, updating, and/or deleting the binding information, or causing the binding information to be stored, in a database.

Abstract: There is provided an apparatus, said apparatus comprising, at a multicast/broadcast session management function of a core network, means for receiving information related to a shared centralised unit user plane, CU UP for a multicast/broadcast session, from a radio access network, RAN, node or an access management function of the core network, means for determining, based on the information, whether to configure a user plane function of the core network to deliver data or to terminate delivery of data for the multicast/broadcast session towards the shared CU UP and means for, if so, configuring the user plane function to deliver data or to terminate delivery of data for the multicast/broadcast session towards the shared CU UP

Abstract: A user plane network entity of a 5G core network performs: obtaining GPRS Tunneling Protocol User Plane (GTP-U) tunneling information of a new or updated protocol data unit (PDU) session from a control plane network entity of the 5G core network; and adjusting according to the obtained GTP-U tunneling information a GTP-U firewall for selectively allowing to pass through only GTP-U traffic concerning GTP-U tunnels defined by the GTP-U tunneling information. The control plane network entity performs: obtaining from control plane signaling the GTP-U tunneling information and communicating same to the GTP-U firewall. A system containing the user plane network entity and the control plane network entity is also disclosed.
