Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved network communication setup. A method, in certain embodiments, may include determining at a network entity a new protocol data unit session anchor of a protocol data unit session with a user equipment. The method may also include transmitting from the network entity to the new protocol data unit session anchor a request to establish the new protocol data unit session anchor. In addition, the method may include transmitting an indication from the network entity to a radio access network. The indication may notify the radio access network to switch paths to the new protocol data unit session anchor. Further, the method includes sending from the network entity a gratuitous address resolution protocol request to the determined new packet data unit session anchor. The gratuitous address resolution protocol request may comprise an address of the user equipment in the protocol data unit session.

Abstract: User equipment appends a header to a non-access stratum (NAS) message to form an encapsulated NAS message. The header is formed according to a wireline access network protocol. The user equipment transmits the encapsulated NAS message over a wireline connection between the user equipment and an interworking function of a core network. The interworking function receives the encapsulated NAS message over the wired connection and forwards the NAS message to a core network entity selected based on addressing information included in the header. A point-to-point control plane session can be established between the user equipment and the interworking function in response to a session request transmitted by the user equipment. The point-to-point control plane session can be used to convey encapsulated NAS messages, which can be used to request establishment of an NAS session for a user plane connection to the core network.
