1. A method for controlling an execution of a non-3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) interworking function (N3IWF), the method comprising:
splitting a signalling of the N3IWF into a control plane signalling and a user plane signalling, wherein the control plane signalling is handled by a N3IWF control plane (N3IWF-C) and the user plane signalling is handled by a N3IWF user plane (N3IWF-U);
adding an E10 interface between the N3IWF-C and the N3IWF-U; and
monitoring the E10 interface, wherein the E10 interface comprises an E10 application protocol (E10AP).
