    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: Information regarding disjoint transport paths of a transport network is acquired (S501). Based on the acquired information, a user plane node of a plurality of user plane nodes of a core network is selected (S503), from which at least one of the disjoint transport paths is reachable, wherein the user plane node is selected as an endpoint of at least one tunnel out of at least two tunnels to be established for a packet data unit, PDU, session to carry traffic between the user plane node and an access node of an access network, wherein the at least two tunnels are to be set up by mapping the at least two tunnels to the disjoint transport paths.

    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.
