Abstract

In a domain name system (DNS) server allocation method, a session management function (SMF) receives a session establishment request message sent by UE, where the request message includes a name of a data network to be accessed by the UE. The SMF obtains an IP address of a first DNS server based on the name of the data network and a geographical location of the UE. The SMF then sends to the UE a session establishment response message that includes the IP address of the first DNS server.
