1. A method performed by an edge enabler server (EES) in a mobile communication network, the method comprising:
receiving, from an edge application server (EAS), an event subscribe request message for user plane path change of a user equipment (UE);
checking an existence of a subscription with 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) core network for a user plane path change event notification of the UE;
performing the subscription with the 3GPP core network for a user plane path event notification of the UE, in case that the subscription with 3GPP core network does not exist; and
transmitting, to the EAS, a subscribe response message,
wherein the event subscribe request message includes at least one of a subscription type or an indication of EAS acknowledgement, and
wherein the subscription type indicates at least one of an early notification or late notification.
 
6. A method performed by an edge application server (EAS) in a mobile communication network, the method comprising:
transmitting, to an edge enabler server (EES), an event subscribe request message for user plane path change of a user equipment (UE); and
receiving, from the EES in response to the event subscribe request message, a subscribe response message,
wherein the event subscribe request message includes at least one of a subscription type or an indication of EAS acknowledgement, and
wherein the subscription type indicates at least one of an early notification or a late notification.
