Abstract

A method for generating and processing bundled notification request messages includes, at a producer NF, receiving subscription request messages from consumer NFs via one or more SCPs. The method further includes obtaining and storing, from the subscription request messages validated by the producer NF, identities of SCPs within a last N hops of SCPs from the producer NF, N being an integer of at least one. The method further includes detecting an event requiring notifications to a plurality of the consumer NFs. The method further includes identifying, from the SCPs within the last N hops of SCPs from the producer NF, a group of SCPs for which the notifications can be bundled. The method further includes generating a bundled notification request message for the group of SCPs for which the notifications can be bundled. The method further includes transmitting the bundled notification request message to a first-hop SCP in the group of SCPs.
