1. A wireless access gateway function (W-AGF) comprising:
at least one processor; and a memory coupled to the at least one processor, the memory storing instructions therein, the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, causing the W-AGF to perform operations, the operations comprising:
obtaining from a policy control function (PCF) of a core network, first information comprising mapping of a traffic multiplexer used in connecting a fixed network-residential gateway (FN-RG) to a wireline access interface of the W-AGF to a list of wireless data session selectors;
receiving traffic from the FN-RG via the traffic multiplexer and the wireline access interface of the W-AGF;
mapping the traffic receive form the FN-RG via the traffic multiplexer and the wireline access interface to a wireless data session selector included in the list of wireless data session selectors based on the first information, wherein respective wireless data session selectors included in the list of wireless data session selectors comprise at least one of: Data Network Name (DNN) or a slice identifier of a network slice for a wireless data session;
transmitting, to a core network, a request for the wireless data session based on the wireless data session selector; and
transmitting the traffic via the wireless data session to the core network.
