Question: What action does the UE take if an uplink (UL) user data packet is not associated with a QFI after evaluating all QoS rules for a PDU session of IPv4, IPv6, IPv4v6 or Ethernet PDU session type?
Option 1: The UE sends the UL user data packet to the lower layers for transmission without a QFI.
Option 2: The UE associates the UL user data packet with the QFI of the default QoS rule associated with the PDU session.
Option 3: The UE discards the UL user data packet.
Option 4: The UE sends an error message to the upper layers indicating that no QoS rule matches the UL user data packet.
Explanation: According to the 3GPP specification, if all QoS rules are evaluated and the UL user data packet is not associated with a QFI for a PDU session of IPv4, IPv6, IPv4v6 or Ethernet PDU session type, the UE shall discard the UL user data packet. This ensures that packets without a matching QoS rule do not congest the network unnecessarily.
