Device and method for supporting authentication management in wireless communication system
A method of operating a terminal in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes transmitting a first registration request message to a network node, based on information of a first network slice, receiving an authentication command message regarding the first network slice from the network node, transmitting an authentication complete message regarding the first network slice to the network node, receiving an authentication result message regarding the first network slice from the network node, configuring a timer to have a specific timer value, if the authentication result message indicates a failure in authentication for the first network slice, and transmitting a second registration request message to the network node, based on information of a second network slice after the timer expires.
1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting, to a network node, a first registration request message associated with a first network slice;
receiving, from the network node, an authentication command message regarding the first network slice;
transmitting, to the network node, an authentication complete message regarding the first network slice;
receiving, from the network node, an authentication result message regarding the first network slice;
in case that the authentication result message regarding the first network slice includes Mobility Management (MM) cause information, configuring a timer including a specific timer value, wherein the MM cause information includes information regarding an authentication failure occurrence of the first network slice or information regarding a failure cause; and
transmitting, to the network node, a second registration request message associated with a second network slice after the timer expires,
wherein the second network slice is different from the first network slice.
2. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the authentication result message regarding the first network slice further includes
information on an authenticatable recommended network slice, and
wherein the second network slice is the recommended network slice.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the information on the authenticatable recommended network slice includes Single-Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (SNSSAI) of the second network slice.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuring of the timer including the specific time value comprises backing off the timer by a configured value.
5. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein, before the first registration request message is transmitted, the terminal is in a 5G Mobility Management (5GMM)-DEREGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION state or a 5GMM-REGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION-UPDATE state, and
wherein, after the first registration request message is transmitted, the terminal transitions from the 5GMM-DEREGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION state or the 5GMM-REGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION-UPDATE state to an 5GMM-REGISTERED-INITIATED state.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein, when the authentication result message regarding the first network slice indicates an authentication failure for the first network slice, the terminal transitions from the 5GMM-REGISTERED-INITIATED state to the 5GMM-DEREGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION state or the 5GMM-REGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION-UPDATE state.
7. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller coupled to the transceiver, and
configured to:
transmit, to a network node, a first registration request message associated with a first network slice,
receive, from the network node, an authentication command message regarding the first network slice,
transmit, to the network node, an authentication complete message regarding the first network slice,
receive, from the network node, an authentication result message regarding the first network slice,
in case that the authentication result message regarding the first network slice includes Mobility Management (MM) cause information, configure a timer including a specific timer value, wherein the MM cause information includes information regarding an authentication failure occurrence of the first network slice or information regarding a failure cause, and
transmit, to the network node, a second registration request message associated with a second network slice after the timer expires,
wherein the second network slice is different from the first network slice.
8. The terminal of claim 7 ,
wherein the authentication result message regarding the first network slice further includes
information on an authenticatable recommended network slice, and
wherein the second network slice is the recommended network slice.
9. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the information on the authenticatable recommended network slice includes Single-Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (SNSSAI) of the second network slice.
10. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein, in order to configure the timer including the specific timer value, the controller is configured to back off the timer by a configured value.
11. The terminal of claim 7 ,
wherein, before the first registration request message is transmitted, the terminal is in a 5G Mobility Management (5GMM)-DEREGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION state or a 5GMM-REGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION-UPDATE state, and
wherein, after the first registration request message is transmitted, the terminal transitions from the 5GMM-DEREGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION state or the 5GMM-REGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION-UPDATE state to an 5GMM-REGISTERED-INITIATED state.
12. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein, when the authentication result message regarding the first network slice indicates an authentication failure for the first network slice, the terminal transitions from the 5GMM-REGISTERED-INITIATED state to the 5GMM-DEREGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION state or the 5GMM-REGISTERED.ATTEMPTING-REGISTRATION-UPDATE state.
