Claim 14:
15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:
one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a network device, cause the network device to:
select a first user plane function for establishing, with a user equipment, a protocol data unit session with a single flow;
receive an application function trigger associated with a first new flow for a first application of the user equipment;
select a second user plane function for the first new flow;
create a first traffic filter for the first new flow,
wherein the first traffic filter includes quality of service rules to be applied to first application traffic; and

cause an access and mobility management function to provide a protocol data unit session resource modify request, with the first traffic filter, to a radio access network associated with,
wherein the radio access network provides, based on the protocol data unit session resource modify request, the first traffic filter to the user equipment via a radio resource control configuration update to enable the user equipment to route the first application traffic, based on the first traffic filter, to the second user plane function and a first multi-access edge computing device associated with the second user plane function.
