A master RAN node (1) associated with a master RAT (1) communicates with a secondary RAN node (2) associated with a secondary RAT and provides a radio terminal (3) with dual connectivity that uses the master RAT and the secondary RAT. In response to receiving, from the radio terminal (3) or a core network (4), terminal capability information indicating that the radio terminal (3) supports the split bearer, the master RAN node (1) uses a PDCP entity, which provides unified PDCP functionalities, for a master cell group split bearer for the radio terminal (3).

A system is disclosed for managing a communication network subscription identifier associated with a device. The system comprises a Core Network node configured to provide a subscription identifier for the device to a Device Management node with management responsibility for the device. The system further comprises a Verification node configured to receive from the Device Management node the subscription identifier and a characteristic of the device, and to bind the subscription identifier to the characteristic such that the subscription identifier is uniquely associated with the characteristic. The system further comprises a Network Access node configured to obtain the subscription identifier from the device. The Verification node, Network Access node and Core Network node are configured to cooperate to verify that the device from which the Network Access node obtained the subscription identifier is in possession of the characteristic that is bound to the subscription identifier.
