1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
receiving, at a first radio access network (RAN) from an access and mobility management function (AMF) network entity, a measurement configuration to start a trace of a user-equipment (UE), wherein the first RAN comprises a first base station;
determining, by the first RAN, a transition of the UE to an inactive state; and
sending, by the first RAN, one or more messages in response to the determination that the UE is in the inactive state, wherein the one or more messages comprise:
a paging message to a second RAN indicating to trigger the transition of the UE to a connected state from the inactive state, wherein the second RAN comprises a second base station,
a message comprising the measurement configuration to start the trace of the UE to the second RAN, and
an indication to the AMF network entity that the trace of the UE is deactivated.
