Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication circuitry, a processor, and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to obtain application information comprising information of at least one application configured to perform data communication using a first packet data network (PDN), establish a first PDN connection to the first PDN and a second PDN connection to a second PDN using the communication circuitry, determine whether a first application, which requests data transmission through the second PDN connection, is an application included in the application information, when the first application is included in the application information, transmit data associated with the first application to the first PDN, and, when the first application is not included in the specified application information, and transmit the data associated with the first application to the second PDN.
