Zusammenfassung:Using Data Network Access Identifier (DNAI) to identify a Session Management Function (SMF) supporting connection to a local Data Network (DN) is provided. In cases where a currently serving SMF does not support connection to a local DN, solutions proposed herein insert an Intermediate SMF (I-SMF) which supports connection to the local DN. An Access and Mobility Function (AMF) can identify the I-SMF to be inserted using DNAI.
