Abstract

Des modes de réalisation de la présente invention concernent un procédé de sélection d'un mode de continuité de service et de session (SSC), un élément de réseau de communication et un support de stockage. Le procédé de sélection d'un mode SSC est appliqué dans une fonction de gestion de session (SMF), et comprend les étapes consistant à : obtenir un mode SSC disponible pour une demande d'établissement de session selon une relation de mappage entre un identifiant de tranche d'une tranche de réseau et un mode SSC; et sélectionner un mode SSC pour une utilisation à partir du mode SSC disponible.
