Method and device for generating access stratum key in communications system
In one embodiment, a system for generating an access stratum key comprises: a first network-side device that has access to a core network (CN) and is communicably coupled to a user equipment device (UE) through a first air interface, and a second network-side device that has access to the CN through the first network-side device and is communicably coupled to the UE through a second air interface. The first network-side device is configured to calculate an access stratum root key of the second network-side device according to an access stratum root key of the first network-side device and an input parameter; and send the access stratum root key of the second network-side device to the second network-side device. The second network-side device is configured to receive the access stratum root key of the second network-side device from the first network-side device; and generate an access stratum key according to the access stratum root key of the second network-side device.
