Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus in telecommunications, and particularly to reducing signaling in a core network involved in changes of states of a wireless terminal (4). According to the disclosure a reduced context is allocated based on parameters received by a base station (2). The reduced context is used by the base station for reconfiguring a RRC connection between the wireless terminal (4) and the base station (2) by means of the reduced context, such that the signaling is hidden from a Serving GateWay, SGW (10).
