In addition, the 5G ProSe UE-to-Network Relay shall includes in discovery messages the RSCs without Control Plane Security Indicator as specified in clause 5.1.4.1.
A 5G ProSe-enabled UE shall use Control Plane based security procedures if a RSC with Control Plane Security Indicator set is used by the Remote UE to establish the connection. Otherwise, if a RSC without Control Plane Security Indicator is used by the Remote UE to establish the connection, the 5G ProSe-enabled UEs shall use User Plane based security procedures as specified in clause 5.1.4.3.3.
The AMF serving the 5G ProSe UE-to-Network Relay selects AUSF as specified in clause 6.3.4 of TS 23.501 using the identification information the 5G ProSe Remote UE provided as specified in clause 6.3.3.3.2 of TS 33.503.
If the 5G ProSe Remote UE is configured by HPLMN to use control plane security procedure, the 5G ProSe Remote UE's HPLMN AUSF shall support control plane based security procedure.
If a network intends to use control plane security procedure, then all the AMFs within the network slices that the 5G ProSe UE-to-Network Relay uses shall support the control plane based security procedures.
