3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the address request information includes at least one of a request of internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assignment or a request of IP version 6 (IPv6) address assignment.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the address request information includes at least one of information related to a number of requested addresses for all traffic, information related to a number of requested addresses for F1-C traffic, information related to a number of requested addresses for F1-U traffic, or information related to a number of requested addresses for non-F1 traffic.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the second information includes at least one of an internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assigned to the IAB node, an IP version 6 (IPv6) address assigned to the IAB node, information indicating usage of the IPv4 address or the IPv6 address, or an address of an IAB-donor-distributed unit (DU).
6 . A method performed by a second integrated access and backhaul (IAB) donor in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a first IAB donor, a request message including first information related to a first address assigned to an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node and address request information indicating a request of address assignment; and
transmitting, to the first IAB donor, a response message in response to the request message,
wherein second information related to a second address configured to the IAB node is included in the response message based on the address request information.
7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the first address assigned to the IAB node includes at least one of an internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assigned to the IAB node or an IP version 6 (IPv6) address assigned to the IAB node.
8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the address request information includes at least one of a request of internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assignment or a request of IP version 6 (IPv6) address assignment.
9 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the address request information includes at least one of information related to a number of requested addresses for all traffic, information related to a number of requested addresses for F1-C traffic, information related to a number of requested addresses for F1-U traffic, or information related to a number of requested addresses for non-F1 traffic.
10 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the second information includes at least one of an internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assigned to the IAB node, an IP version 6 (IPv6) address assigned to the IAB node, information indicating usage of the IPv4 address or the IPv6 address, or an address of an IAB-donor-distributed unit (DU).
11 . A first integrated access and backhaul (IAB) donor in a wireless communication system, the first IAB donor comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled to the transceiver, and configured to:
transmit, to a second IAB donor, a request message including first information related to a first address assigned to an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node and address request information indicating a request of address assignment, and
receive, from the second IAB donor, a response message in response to the request message,
wherein second information related to a second address configured to the IAB node is included in the response message based on the address request information.
12 . The first IAB donor of claim 11 , wherein the first address assigned to the IAB node includes at least one of an internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assigned to the IAB node or an IP version 6 (IPv6) address assigned to the IAB node.
13 . The first IAB donor of claim 11 , wherein the address request information includes at least one of a request of internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assignment or a request of IP version 6 (IPv6) address assignment.
14 . The first IAB donor of claim 11 , wherein the address request information includes at least one of information related to a number of requested addresses for all traffic, information related to a number of requested addresses for F1-C traffic, information related to a number of requested addresses for F1-U traffic, or information related to a number of requested addresses for non-F1 traffic.
15 . The first IAB donor of claim 11 , wherein the second information includes at least one of an internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assigned to the IAB node, an IP version 6 (IPv6) address assigned to the IAB node, information indicating usage of the IPv4 address or the IPv6 address, or an address of an IAB-donor-distributed unit (DU).
16 . A second integrated access and backhaul (IAB) donor in a wireless communication system, the second IAB donor comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled to the transceiver, and configured to:
receive, from a first IAB donor, a request message including first information related to a first address assigned to an integrated access and backhaul IAB) node and address request information indicating a request of address assignment, and
transmit, to the first IAB donor, a response message in response to the request message,
wherein second information related to a second address configured to the IAB node is included in the response message based on the address request information.
17 . The second IAB donor of claim 16 , wherein the first address assigned to the IAB node includes at least one of an internet protocol (IP) version 4 (IPv4) address assigned to the IAB node or an IP version 6 (IPv6) address assigned to the IAB node.
