1. A method for managing sidelink and non-sidelink information in a user device operating using multi-radio dual connectivity (MR-DC) with a radio access network (RAN) including a master node (MN) and a secondary node (SN), the method comprising:
obtaining, by the user device, a first set of information for sidelink communication with another user device;
obtaining, by the user device, a second set of information for non-sidelink communication;
transmitting, by the user device to the MN, a first container message including a first radio resource control message that includes the first set of information; and
transmitting, by the user device to the MN or the SN, a second container message, different from the first container message, that includes a second radio resource control message including the second set of information.
