Abstract
A network function configured for operation in a mobile telecommunications network is provided. The network function is configured to obtain from a User Equipment (UE), a Protocol Data Unit, PDU, session request for establishment of a redundant PDU session and to determine said redundant PDU session to be established based on at least one network condition. The network function is configured to provide the UE the outcome of the determination if said redundant PDU session is to be established. Hereby a network function that can consider Network conditions to determine (initiate/reject) the redundant user plane feature for the URLLC services can be provided. By allowing the network to determine establishment of redundant user plane resource exhaustion can be avoided in that the UE is no longer controlling the establishment of a redundant user plane.
