Abstract

An apparatus and method comprising implementing a near-real-time radio access network intelligent controller, and detecting an event triggering a need for transfer of control of at least one access node from said near-real-time radio access network intelligent controller to a target near-real-time radio access network intelligent controller. An address of the target near-real-time radio access network intelligent controller is determined, and an interface between the near-real-time radio access network intelligent controller and the target near-real-time radio access network intelligent controller is established. The transfer of the control of the at least one access node from said near-real-time radio access network intelligent controller to the target near-real-time radio access network intelligent controller is carried out.
