    摘要: A computing device may receive a first packet addressed to a destination node. The device may check a packet counter to determine if the counter exceeds a threshold, the counter recording a number of packets addressed to the destination node that have been received during a first time period. The device may in response to the packet counter exceeding the threshold: send, by the computing device, a query to an intermediate node; generate, by the device, a query flag in response to sending the query. The query flag can indicate that a query has been sent to the intermediate node. A reply from the intermediate node can be received by the device. The reply can identify a set of processes that the intermediate node is configured to perform on the first packet. The set of processes can be applied by the device to the first packet.

    摘要: A system, devices and procedures for providing QoS monitoring in a 5G network are described. The QoS monitoring is per QoS flow per UE or GTP-U path QoS monitoring. A SMF sends a request to a UPF and NG-RAN to report UL/DL packet delay and RTT between the UPF and a UE or an N3 and N9 interface, along with thresholds for reporting the measurements. The UPF sends a report containing the measurements when the threshold is met. The delays include average, minimum and maximum packet delays. The request also indicates a state of QoS monitoring, S-NSSAI and 5QI to monitor, whether event-based/periodic/session release-based QoS monitoring reporting per QoS flow per UE is supported, minimum waiting time between consecutive reports for event-triggered QoS monitoring reporting, and a period to report the measured packet delay.
