POLICY CACHING METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR USE IN A COMMUNICATION DEVICE

摘要

A policy caching method (400) for use in a communication device is provided. The communication device determines which instance of protocol data unit (PDU) network policy from a plurality of policies is to be applied to related-received PDUs based on contents of one of the related-received PDUs (406). Subsequently, policy identification information identifying the instance PDU policy is cached (408) for future application to other of the related-received PDUs (410). Also, a communication device which implements this policy caching method is provided.
