Abstract
A disaggregated broadband network gateway (DBNG) control plane system may receive an association setup request message from a DBNG user plane device, wherein the association setup request message is received via a state control interface between the DBNG control plane system and the DBNG user plane device. The DBNG control plane system may determine, based on the association setup request message, one or more capabilities of the DBNG user plane device and may thereby cause one or more additional state control interfaces to be established between the DBNG control plane system and the DBNG user plane device. The DBNG control plane system and the DBNG control plane system may communicate messages associated with a first message type via the state control interface and may communicate messages associated with a second message type via at least one of the one or more additional state control interfaces.
