1. A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, which are configured, individually or in any combination, to:
store a record including a first set of attributes associated with an uplink encapsulating security payload (ESP) packet sent by an upper layer of the UE, wherein the first set of attributes includes an uplink security parameters index (SPI) included in a header of the uplink ESP packet and a flag comprising a value to indicate that the uplink SPI is not mapped to a downlink SPI;
receive a downlink ESP packet associated with a second set of attributes and a downlink SPI, wherein the second set of attributes includes the downlink SPI included in a header of the downlink ESP packet; and
map the uplink SPI with the downlink SPI associated with the downlink ESP packet based at least in part on the record satisfying one or more conditions.
