Abstract: The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless communications, and specifically to methods, a system, and devices for configuring DRX and for monitoring a control channel. The invention is used to solve the problem in the art that in a bearer separation scenario, proper DRX cannot be immediately configured for a UE, causing the UE to conduct monitoring for a longer period of time and therefore consume additional power. The method of the embodiments of the present invention comprises: a first network-side device sending auxiliary information to a second network-side device so as to allow said second network-side device to configure DRX for the UE on the basis of said auxiliary information, wherein, after separation, part of a UE bearer is on the second network-side device. In the present invention, in a bearer separation scenario a second network-side device may configure DRX for a UE on the basis of auxiliary information. This accelerates configuration of proper DRX for a UE, which shortens the amount of time the UE conducts monitoring and reduces UE power consumption.
