1. A user equipment (UE) comprising a processor configured to:
- receive a message; and
responsive to the message indicating a first Internet Protocol (IP) version type, deactivate at least one of a packet data protocol (PDP) context and an evolved packet system (EPS) bearer that are associated with a second IP version type, wherein the at least one of the PDP context and the EPS bearer had been previously activated by the UE.

Abstract
A user equipment (UE) is provided. The UE comprises at least one component that is configured to detect an event of one of the UE changing routing area and the UE changing radio access technology from a long-term evolution (LTE) network to a global system for mobile communications enhanced data rates for GSM evolution radio access network (GERAN) or to a universal mobile telecommunication system terrestrial radio access network (UTRAN) and, responsive to detecting the event, to deactivate one of a packet data protocol (PDP) context and an evolved packet system (EPS) bearer.
