A method of determining a transition of a terminal (110) between its idle state and its connected state is described. The connected state of the terminal (110) is associated with the terminal (110) being connected to a node (108) of a radio access network (104) of a communication network (100). The method comprises at least one of at least partly setting up, prior to a connection setup procedure for setting up a connection between the terminal (110) and the node (108) of the radio access network (104), a security configuration to be used between the terminal (110) and the node (108) of the radio access network (104) for communication, and at least partly setting up, prior to the connection setup procedure, a bearer configuration to be used between the terminal (110) and the node (108) of the radio access network (104) for communication. Thus, an efficient usage of network resources and/or energy resources of a terminal in association with a transition of a terminal between its idle state and its connected state may be enabled. |
