Step 701:PGW-U sends downlink data packet to SGW-U;
Step 702:SGW-U caches the downlink data packet, regular if there are the processing of the downlink data packet on SGW-U, But there is no downlink S1-U eNB TEID, then SGW-C is requested to trigger DDN process;If without the downlink data packet on SGW-U Processing rule, then SGW-U parses the packet header GTP-U of the downlink data packet, then sends SGW-C for the GTP-U header packet information, And execute step 703;
Step 703:SGW-C matches the carrying of preservation or more according to the GTP-U header packet information of the downlink data packet received Text executes option A if finding the bearer context to match: triggering DDN process, and executes the service request of network-triggered Process;Otherwise, SGW-C, which is determined, abandons the downlink data packet, and executes option B: generating the configuration of corresponding SGW user plane functions Signaling is sent to SGW-U, so that SGW-U completes the configuration of user face data routing/forward rule, configuration SGW-U, which is abandoned, to be received All data packets received by the carrying of the downlink data packet.
