If with a Release Access Bearers Request, or Suspend Notification, or Resume an SGW receives a semantically erroneus/unexpected Originating Node, then the following applies:
– If SGW has an active connection to an MME, but the Originating Node IE contains value "SGSN", then the SGW shall not release the user plane and shall send a response to the SGSN with some appropriate cause value.
– If SGW has an active connection to an S4-SGSN, but the Originating Node IE contains value "MME", then the SGW shall not release the user plane and shall send a response to the MME with some appropriate cause value.
