Zusammenfassung:	Methods and systems are presented for providing a 4G-5G Open RAN User Plane Path. In one embodiment a method includes keeping, by a Distributed Unit (DU)/Centralized Unit (CU)-User Plane (UP), a list of local switch enabled subscribers; receiving an uplink data packet for a local switch enabled subscriber from a source device; comparing , by the DU/CU-UP, if a destination Internet Protocol (IP) address matches with any of IP addresses in the local switch enabled subscriber destination device IP addresses; and when the destination IP address matches, then switching by the DU/CU-UP the traffic and sending the data packet as a downlink traffic towards the destination device.
