A Service Continuity Network Function (SCNF) may be used to provide service continuity support in IoT networks such as 3 GPP and oneM2M, whereby higher layer session and service information is associated with transport layer session information. By means of the SCNF, a higher layer service may be resumed when a new session or connection is created, without support for transport layer session continuity. The service continuity capabilities of the SCNF may be exposed to the service layer of the network by way of a resource data structure.

Facilitating mobility as a service in advanced networks (e.g., 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. Operations of a method can comprise evaluating, by a system comprising a processor, a group of characteristics of a device. The method also can comprise enabling, by the system, a mobility management function as a mobility microservice. Further, the method can comprise activating, by the system, microservices of a group of microservices, comprising the mobility microservice, based on the group of characteristics of the device.

One disclosure of the present specification provides a method performed by a terminal that performs registration in a non-3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) access. According to the method, the terminal may receive a rejection message including a value of a back-off timer. In addition, the terminal may determine a value of a non-3GPP de-registration timer on the basis of the value of the back-off timer. In this case, the value of the non-3GPP de-registration timer may be determined to be greater than the value of the back-off timer.

A user equipment (UE) includes a processor configured to execute computer-executable instructions to: determine whether a required network slice/service of the UE is supported by a network node; perform at least one of a plurality of mobility management procedures, when the required network slice/service of the UE is not supported by the network node; where the plurality of mobility management procedures includes: selecting another master node (MN), or intra-MN handover or inter-MN handover to another MN; selecting or reselecting a secondary node (SN), intra-SN handover to another SN, modifying an existing SN, or adding a new SN; changing the UE's anchor node to a target new radio (NR) next generation node B (gNB) or a target evolved long term evolution (eLTE) evolved node B (eNB).
