Zusammenfassung:A method of operating a network node to provide dual connectivity in a new radio telecommunications system. The method allocates two tunnel endpoint identifiers (TEIDs). The method sends the allocated TEIDs to at least one other network node for transporting a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session that can be split. The method receives two TEIDs for a master node and a secondary node (SN). A related method of operating a master node provides dual connectivity. The method sends a SN addition request message to a SN. The method sends a SN add/modify completion indication to the SN that informs the SN that the operations to add/modify are complete.
