Patent attributes
A communication method, a communications device, and a communications system to avoid, when an access and mobility management function (AMF) entity fails, a case in which a re-registration process of a terminal that is being served is triggered because a context of the terminal is lost. The method includes: obtaining, by a communications device, a first group identifier of a terminal group to which a first terminal served by a first mobility management entity belongs; and sending, by the communications device, a message related to the first terminal to a second mobility management entity based on the first group identifier when an exception occurs in the first mobility management entity, where the second mobility management entity is a mobility management entity in which a context of the first terminal exists.
