1. A communication method, performed by an access network device, comprising:
determining a paging type for a terminal device;
generating a first message comprising information of the terminal device according to the paging type; and
sending the first message to the terminal device; wherein the generating the first message comprising the information of the terminal device according to the paging type comprises:
the information of the terminal device comprised in the first message being identification information that is able to uniquely identify the terminal device in a core network when the access network device determines that the paging type is core network paging; or
the information of the terminal device comprised in the first message being identification information that is able to uniquely identify the terminal device in an access network when the access network device determines that the paging type is access network paging, wherein the identification information that is able to uniquely identify the terminal device in the access network is a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for access network paging.
