Abstract

A node (20) of a communications network proposes an inactivity timer parameter for a radio access network bearer. The inactivity timer parameter indicates for how much time the bearer may be inactive for a session or a connection while the bearer is still allocated resources of the radio access network. The node proposes the inactivity timer parameter in dependence upon a service characteristic or a subscription characteristic for the session or the connection.
