    Abstract: There are provided measures for enabling/realizing broadcast session establishment, particularly improved broadcast session establishment within a multicast/broadcast service. Such measures exemplarily comprise that an access management element or function in a mobile communication system issues, in response to a request of broadcast session establishment from a session management element or function, one or more requests of broadcast session establishment operation to one or more radio access elements or functions, issuing a response of broadcast session establishment to the session management element or function, and provides an indication of completion of broadcast session establishment operation at the radio access elements or functions to the session management element or function upon obtaining a response of broadcast session establishment operation from all of the radio access elements or functions.

    Abstract: This specification describes apparatus comprising means for sending, from a first network function service consumer instance to an authorisation server, a request for an access token for use in accessing a service provided by a network function service producer, wherein the request includes an identifier of a set of network function service consumer instances of which the first network function service consumer instance is a member; receiving, at the first network function service consumer instance from the authorisation server, an access token for use in accessing the service provided by the network function service producer, wherein the access token includes the identifier of the set of network function service consumer instances of which the first network function service consumer instance is a member; and sending, from the first network function service consumer instance to the network function service producer, a request to access the service provided by the network function service producer, wherein the request to access the service includes the access token.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for packet forwarding control protocol (PFCP) message bundling. In an example embodiment, an apparatus comprises at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code. In some embodiments, apparatus can be configured to: determine that more than one control protocol messages should be sent between a control plane entity and a user plane entity or said user plane entity and said control plane entity; determine the control plane entity and the user plane entity support sending and receiving a single datagram carrying more than one control protocol messages; extend a header of each control protocol message to indicate that the datagram is carrying more than one control protocol messages; combine one or more message types and respective message elements of the more than one control protocol messages into the single datagram; and cause sending said single datagram.

    Abstract: A network access node receives an indication of an interval between expected receptions of echo requests that pass through a tunnel that uses an interface between a network element in a core network of the cellular network to the network access node of the cellular network. The network access node determines a threshold time period based on the interval, detects there has been no echo request for a time period greater than the threshold time period, and determines that a failure has occurred of the tunnel that uses the interface. The network access node triggers set up of a new tunnel using the interface due to the failure of the tunnel. Multiple techniques are disclosed for determining that this failure has occurred and recovering from the failure, including setting up a new MBS session or using a new transport address for a current MBS session.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method comprising to: receiving (700), from a network function service consumer, a request for an access token that authorizes access to a service provided by a network exposure function, wherein the service provides data obtained from an untrusted application function connected to the network exposure function, wherein the request comprises an identifier associated with the network exposure function, an identifier associated with the network function service consumer and an identifier associated with the untrusted application function; determining (702) to provide an access token to the network function service consumer based on the identifier associated with the network exposure function, the identifier associated with the network function service consumer, the identifier associated with the untrusted application function and attributes associated with the untrusted application function included in a profile of the network exposure function stored at the network repository function; and providing (704), to the network function service consumer, the access token comprising the identifier associated with the untrusted application function comprised in the request.
