Abstract

There is provided configuration of a communications link. The configuration involves wirelessly receiving control signalling from a user equipment by a network node functional unit. The control signalling relates to an uplink communications resource between the user equipment and the network node functional unit. The configuration further involves notifying, in response to receiving the control signalling and prior to receiving any user data associated with the control signalling from the user equipment on the uplink communications resource, a backhaul client functional unit to configure a communications link to a backhaul hub.
