1. A method, in a wireless device operating in a wireless network, for handling transitions from Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected state to an RRC inactive state, the method comprising:
receiving, from the wireless network, a message indicating that the wireless device is to enter the RRC inactive state; and,
responsive to the message, using, for inactive state operation, at least one previously stored inactive state parameter corresponding to a parameter omitted from the message, wherein the at least one previously stored inactive state parameter comprises a Radio Network Area (RNA) update configuration parameter.
