Abstract
There is provided a method for a user entity adapted for interacting with a mobility management node (MMN). The user entity (UE) initiates a request for service. The UE determines that the UE belongs to a low priority class and the UE, in response to determining that the UE belongs to the low priority class, transmits to the MMN an Extended Service Request (ESR) comprising a low priority class indication. The UE responds to a network initiated request for service which step of responding to the network initiated request for service comprises transmitting to the MMN a message that does not comprise a low priority class indication regardless of the fact that the UE belongs to the low priority class, thereby disregarding whether the user entity belongs to the low priority class, wherein the message is one of a Serving Request (SR) and an ESR.
