Background

Currently, a core network performs configuration management on a slice session connection for data transmission between a network and a terminal through a User Equipment (UE) routing Policy (URSP) rule. Once the configuration rules are in effect, the slice connection service maintains service capabilities and service status for the duration of the subscription. And the network side can modify the configuration rule, update the modified configuration rule or cancel the slice session connection at any time according to the requirement, and issues the updated configuration rule to the terminal, and instructs the terminal to configure the slice session connection according to the updated configuration rule.

The terminal receives the URSP slice configuration rule sent by the network side, configures slice connection according to the rule, and provides service according to the rule until the network side sends a new URSP slice configuration rule, and reconfigures or deletes the original slice connection.

In the prior art, although the current service provides diversified service needs, if a certain service only needs to be used once or within a specific time range, the configuration mode of the current URSP rule cannot meet the service needs.

It should be noted that the service time of the slice session connection is one of an absolute time or a relative time, and correspondingly, the specified service valid time is also one of an absolute time or a relative time. Alternatively, the absolute time may refer to a fixed time, such as: a fraction of a time, relative time may refer to a period of time, such as a period of time during which a sliced session connection is established.

The following describes the use or termination of the slice session connection by the terminal according to conditional rules, in particular according to several examples as follows.

In case the first information in the configuration rule comprises only a single conditional rule, for example: and if the maximum service times exceed the preset maximum service times, the terminal terminates the slicing connection service.

When the first information in the configuration rule includes a plurality of condition rules, the first information also includes combined condition information, AND the combined condition information is a single logic rule, the network side device combines each condition rule according to the single logic rule to form a corresponding composite condition rule, AND sends the composite condition rule to the terminal, the terminal establishes the slice session connection according to the composite condition rule, for example, the plurality of condition rules are 'maximum service times' AND 'maximum service flow', the single logic rule is 'AND', the composite condition rule is 'maximum service times' AND 'maximum service flow', the terminal records AND counts the service times AND the usage flow of the slice session connection, AND if the set 'maximum service times' AND 'maximum service flow' are reached, the slice connection service is terminated.

It should be noted that, in the configuration rule issued by the existing network, only the terminal is instructed to configure the session according to the new configuration rule, but how to process the current session under the original configuration rule is not instructed, at this time, if the current session is in a connection state of data transmission, if the network issues the updated configuration rule at this time and instructs to perform session update or session creation, this may result in that, if the terminal immediately updates or creates a new session according to the new configuration rule, the existing session connection may be interrupted, and the current session and the service transmission carried thereby may be affected; if the terminal does not immediately update or create the current session in time according to the updated configuration rule, the new configuration rule may not be valid in time, and the new session and subsequent service transmission are affected.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first information in the configuration rule further adds a processing mode for the original slice session connection, and instructs the terminal to process the original slice session connection according to the processing mode.

In the process of configuring the slice session connection by the terminal, if the original slice session connection is no longer used by other services, the terminal can release the original slice session connection after the new slice session connection is successfully established and the service migration is completed.

In the process of carrying out the configuration of the slicing session connection by the terminal, if the original slicing session connection is not used by other services, after the successful establishment of the slicing session connection, within the preset time range of the first timer, if the service transmission exists on the original slicing session connection, the first timer is reset, timing is restarted, and the terminal considers that the original slicing session connection is in a connection state and keeps using the original slicing session connection for carrying out the service transmission.

In the process of configuring the slicing session connection by the terminal, if the original slicing session connection is no longer used by other services, after the slicing session connection is successfully established, within the preset time range of the first timer, if no service transmission exists on the original slicing session connection, the terminal may regard the original slicing session connection as being in an idle state, and release the original slicing session connection.
