1. A method performed by a V2X user equipment (UE) for service discovery from a V2X application server (AS), the method comprising:
sending, to a first address associated with the V2X AS, a first discovery request for further address information associated with the V2X AS; and
receiving, from the first address via unicast signaling, a first discovery response including the requested further address information, which facilitates UE discovery of V2X services available via unicast communication between the V2X UE and a radio access network (RAN).
