Abstract: A policy management device transmits an update of a mobile operator policy that requests to switch an access system for each flow that UE is going to perform communication. In addition, the policy management device requests to enable a network interface that is to be used for performing communication by making a connection to the switched access system. The UE compares the received update of the mobile operator policy with a UE policy that is held in advance and determines which is to be preferentially used. In a case where the UE determines to preferentially use the mobile operator policy, the UE switches the access system to offload communication.
