In addition, in addition to allowing the terminal to receive inactive multicast services, the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device to the terminal can also set other functions as needed, including but not limited to updating the terminal's stored multicast service configuration.

Correspondingly, after receiving the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device, the terminal may perform different actions. For example, it may receive an inactive multicast service based on the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device. For example, it may receive an inactive multicast service based on the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device. The multicast service configuration updates the stored multicast service configuration.

Therefore, it is necessary for the terminal to clarify the function of the multicast service configuration (for example, corresponding identification information can be indicated) indicated by the network device, for example, for the terminal to receive inactive multicast services, for the terminal to store the group group information. Update the broadcast service configuration, etc., so that the terminal can perform appropriate operations in the future.

According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the network device can indicate the configuration indication information of the inactive multicast service, and the terminal can determine the function of the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device according to the configuration indication information of the inactive multicast service. Then perform the operations corresponding to this function so that inactive multicast services can be successfully received in the future.

For example, based on the configuration indication information, the terminal determines the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device, which is used for the terminal to receive the inactive multicast service. Then, the inactive multicast service can be received according to the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device;

For example, based on the configuration indication information, the terminal determines the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device, which is used by the terminal to update the stored multicast service configuration. Then the stored multicast service configuration can be updated according to the multicast service configuration indicated by the network device. Broadcast service configuration is updated.
