1. A method comprising:
- establishing a first radio connection between a first cell and a user equipment (UE); and
determining a network identity of a second cell based on a first set of at least one network identity associated with the first cell, wherein the second cell is associated with a second set of at least one network identity, the determined network identity useable for establishing a second radio connection between the second cell and the UE.

Abstract
A first radio connection is established between a first cell and a user equipment (UE). A network identity of a second cell is determined based on a first set of at least one network identity associated with the first cell, where the second cell is associated with a second set of at least one network identity. The determined network identity is useable for establishing a second radio connection between the second cell and the UE.

21. A user equipment (UE) comprising:
-
a wireless communication component to receive, from a wireless access network node of a first cell, a list of network identifiers, the network identifiers being composed according to a first set of network identifiers for the first cell, and a second set of network identifiers for a second cell, the first cell and the second cell to provide concurrent wireless connections with the UE; and at least one processor configured to; select, from the list of network identifiers, a network identifier to use for generating a key for protecting data communication of the UE.

22. A method comprising:
-
generating, by a source wireless access network node for a user equipment (UE), a plurality of security configurations, wherein each security configuration is associated with a different node in a set of candidate target wireless access network nodes; sending, by the source wireless access network node, each security configuration to the respective candidate target wireless network node; and sending, by the source wireless access network node, security information of the plurality of security configurations to the UE. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
