New Diameter Features
This section
identifies new Diameter features available in release 14.0.
Time Reporting over
Gx
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN
Time
usage reporting over Gx is similar to Volume usage reporting over
Gx feature. PCRF provides the time usage threshold for entire session
or particular monitoring key in CCA or RAR. When the given threshold
breached usage report will be sent to PCRF in CCR. This time threshold
is independent of data traffic. Apart from the usage threshold breach
there are other scenarios where usage report will be send to PCRF.
The following monitoring
levels are supported:
- Session level
- Flow level (rule level)
Time usage at session/flow
level will be reported to PCRF under the following conditions:
- Usage Threshold
Reached
- Usage Monitoring Disabled
- IP CAN Session Termination
- PCC Rule Removal
- PCRF Requested Usage Report
- Event based reporting
For more information on
this feature, refer to the Gx Interface Support appendix
in the GGSN Administration Guide.
Modified Diameter
Features
This section
identifies Diameter features modified in release 14.0.
Change in Value
of Rule-Failure-Code AVP
Applicable Product(s):
eHRPD, GGSN, HA, P-GW, S-GW
Previous Behavior: When
a failure is received from MME for Bearer Create/Update
as part of rule installation, the Rule-Failure-Code AVP in the CCR-U
indicated the failure code as “GW/PCEF MALFUNCTION”.
New Behavior: In
this scenario, the failure code for this AVP is “RESOURCE_ALLOCATION_FAILURE”.
It is important that
the PCRF receives the correct failure code in the CCR-U because PCEF_MALFUNCTION
and RESOURCE_ALLOCATION_FAILURE are treated differently
by the PCRF.
Default Setting
for Failure Handling Configuration
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW
Previous Behavior: When
failure handling template was configured then by default retry and
terminate action was not taken, due to which Result Code Based FH
statistics were not getting incremented, for a 3xxx Result-Code
based FH, in the output of show ims-authorization policy-control
statistics command.
New Behavior: Now
the default action “retry and terminate” will
be taken and the Result Code Based FH are getting updated properly
in the statistics output.
Final IMEISV Value
Display on Gx Interface
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW
Previous Behavior:
3GPP-IMEISV AVP value did not support any alphabets; only numeric
values were supported. When “F” was included in
the AVP value, then it was considered incorrect.
New Behavior: In
this release, alphanumeric value can be sent for IMEISV. This is
as per the standard spec 3GPP TS 29.274. IMEISV value will support
sending "F" if it is within 15 digits. “f” (filler)
at 16th location will be ignored and not sent to PCRF.
Final IMEISV Value
Display on Gy Interface
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW
Previous Behavior:
3GPP-IMEISV AVP value did not support any alphabets; only numeric
values were supported. When “F” was included in
the AVP value, then it was considered incorrect.
New Behavior: In
this release, alphanumeric value can be sent for IMEISV. This is
as per the standard spec 3GPP TS 29.274. IMEISV value will support
sending "F" if it is within 15 digits. “f” (filler)
at 16th location will be ignored and not sent to OCS.
Handling of CCA-T
based on IMS Authorization Service
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN
In this release, the
CCA-T received after deletion of IMS authorization service will
not be processed.
Also, while waiting for
a CCA-I/U, if the service is deleted, the CCA message will
not processed.
Handling of Gx
PCC Rule Removal
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Previous Behavior: When
PCC rule was tried to be removed while waiting for access side update
bearer response, the charging rules were not removed.
New Behavior: Now
on receiving message from PCRF, the rule that is meant for removal
is marked and then after the access side procedure is complete the
rule is removed.
Handling of Rule
Installation
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Previous Behavior: When
PCRF has subscribed to Out of Credit trigger, on session connect,
when one rule validation fails and also when an Out of Credit was
received from OCS for another rule, P-GW was trying to report these
failures in different CCR-U to PCRF. However, the second CCR-U of
Out of credit was getting dropped internally.
New Behavior: Now,
on session connect, P-GW combines the rule failure and out of credit
in the same CCR-U and sends to PCRF.
Limitation with
Using Same Endpoint for Different IMSA Services
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Whenever a new ims-auth-serv
is configured using an endpoint that is used by another ims-auth-serv,
then the diabase callbacks are overwritten with values of the new
IMSA service. This is a limitation on the system to register only
one application per endpoint. So, multiple IMSA services registering
with same endpoint may not work properly. If such scenario occurs,
configure a different endpoint name for the IMSA service being used
and then remove and re-configure the IMSA service used.
Support for Permanent
Failure Result-Codes in FH Template
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW
Previous Behavior: When
5xxx Diameter result code is received in the CCA and there is some
failure handling CLI configured in the template, the call was getting
terminated without sending CCR-T message.
New Behavior: When
5xxx is received in the CCA and there is some failure handling CLI
configured in the template, then take the failure handling action
configured in the CLI.
If none of the CLI
configured in the template matches then the call is terminated without sending
CCR-T.

service-type { closedrp | ggsn | ha | ipsg | l2tplns | mipv6ha | pdsn | pgw } { e164 | imsi | nai }
[ no ] subscription-id
service-type { closedrp | ggsn | ha | ipsg | l2tplns | mipv6ha | pdsn | pgw }
end
Each
service can have a maximum of 3 subscription-id types (e164, imsi
& nai) that can be configured through this CLI.
The DCCA
side changes are made in such a way that, if this CLI command is
configured for any particular service, then the CLI takes precedence.
Else it falls back to default (hard-coded) values configured for
that service.
With this CLI command, it is possible to minimize
any further dictionary additions in dcca (unless absolutely essential).

Administration and Reference for this release.
GTPP Feature Changes
This section
identifies GTPP feature changes available in release 14.0.
New GTPP Features
This section
identifies new GTPP features available in release 14.0.
Support for PS Furnish
Charging Information in CDRs
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, P-GW
The
PS-Furnish-Charging-Information AVP is of type grouped and it has
the following sub attributes: 3GPP-Charging-ID, PS-Free-Format-Data
and PS-Append-Free-Format-Data. Note that the Furnish Charging Information
(FCI) support is based on the standard 3GPP TS 32.251.
The
main purpose of this feature is to add online charging session specific
information, received via the Ro reference point, onto the Rf reference
point in order to facilitate its inclusion in CDRs. This information
element may be received in a CCA message from OCS via the Ro reference
point. In situations where online and offline charging are active
in parallel, the information element is transparently copied into
an ACR to be sent on the Rf reference point.
IMPORTANT:
This generic FCI feature
is applicable to all GTPP dictionaries except custom43 and is CLI-controlled.
PGW-CDR and eG-CDR will
contain FCI only if it is enabled at command level, i.e. using the gtpp attribute furnish-charging-information command
in GTPP Server Group Configuration mode.
Whenever FCI changes,
a new FDD value is either appended to existing FFD or overwritten on
the existing FDD depending on AFFD flag. CDR is not generated upon
FCI change.
FCI is supported in main
CDR as well as in LOSDV. Whenever a trigger (volume, time, RAT,
etc.) happens current available FFD at command level is added to
the main body of the CDR. The same FFD at command level is added
to the main body of the next CDRs until it is not appended or overwritten
by next Credit-Control-Answer message at command level.
Modified GTPP Features
This section
identifies GTPP features modified in release 14.0.
MO SMS CDR Generation
Applicable Product(s):
SGSN
Previous Behavior: CDRs
are generated when MO SMSes are dropped due to routing failure.
New Behavior: CDRs
are not generated when MO SMSes are dropped due to routing failure.
Value of IMEISV
in GGSN CDRs
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN
This change applies
to all GTPP dictionaries used for GGSN.
Previous Behavior:
The CDR field “IMEISV” accepted only digits 0
through 9.
New Behavior: In
the current release, apart from the digits 0 through 9, this field also
accepts the alphabetic characters A through F. RADIUS will encode
only 15 digit IMEISV if IMEI is 15 digits.

radius accounting
Applicable Product(s):
IPSG
This command in the
IPSG RADIUS Server Configuration Mode allows you to specify the IP
address and shared secret of the RADIUS accounting client from which
RADIUS accounting requests are received. The RADIUS client can be
either the access gateway or the RADIUS accounting server depending
on which device is sending accounting requests.
The act-onoff keyword
specifies sending accounting On/Off messages to AAA Server.
Previously, this option was applicable only to the IPSG Proxy Mode.
With this release, this option is applicable to both IPSG Proxy
and Server Modes.

GTPP Accounting
Management Changes as of January 31, 2013
This section

in release 14.0.
IMPORTANT:
For more information
regarding GTPP dictionaries and CDRs mentioned in this section,
refer to the GTPP Interface
Administration and Reference for this release.
GTPP Feature Changes
This section
identifies GTPP feature changes available in release 14.0.
New GTPP Features
This section
identifies new GTPP features available in release 14.0
APN-AMBR Values in
PGW-CDR
Applicable Products:
P-GW
The APN Aggregate Maximum
Bit Rate (AMBR) is a subscription parameter stored per APN. It limits
the aggregate bit rate that can be expected to be provided across
all non-GBR bearers and across all PDN connections of the same APN.
Each of these non-GBR bearers potentially utilize the entire APN
AMBR, e.g. when the other non-GBR bearers do not carry any traffic.
The main purpose of
this feature is to populate the values of APN-AMBR attribute in
the PGW-CDR. For non-GBR bearers, APN-AMBR values are populated
in the sub-fields — maxRequestedBandwithUL and maxRequestedBandwithDL
of “QoS Information Negotiated” field which is
part of LOSDV in the PGW-CDR.
IMPORTANT:
This feature is currently
applicable to only custom24 GTPP dictionary and is CLI-controlled.
If the CLI command gtpp attribute apn-ambr is configured
in GTPP Server Group Configuration mode, then apn-ambr values are
included in the PGW-CDR.
Dual PDP Parameter
Support for Custom SGSN S-CDR Dictionaries
Applicable Products:
SGSN
All custom S-CDR dictionaries
support the CDR field “Served PDP/ PDN Address extension”.
This field holds the IPv4 address of the subscriber (if available)
when the PDP type is IPv4v6. The inclusion of this field in the
S-CDR dictionary is enabled on execution of the command gtpp attribute served-pdp-pdn-address-extension in
the GTPP Server Group Configuration Mode. This field is disabled by
default and is not supported by the following dictionaries:
- custom17
- custom18
- custom23
- custom41
- custom42
IMPORTANT:
This field was supported
previously only on custom24 dictionary.
PS Furnish Charging
Information
Applicable Products:
P-GW
The PS-Furnish-Charging-Information
AVP is of type grouped and it has the following sub attributes:
3GPP-Charging-ID, PS-Free-Format-Data and PS-Append-Free-Format-Data.
Note that the Furnish Charging Information (FCI) support is based
on the standard 3GPP 32.251.
The main purpose of
this feature is to add online charging session specific information, received
via the Ro reference point, onto the Rf reference point in order
to facilitate its inclusion in CDRs. This information element may
be received in a CCA message from OCS via the Ro reference point.
In situations where online and offline charging are active in parallel,
the information element is transparently copied into an ACR to be
sent on the Rf reference point.
IMPORTANT:
This feature is currently
applicable to only custom24 GTPP dictionary and is CLI-controlled.
This feature support
enables generation of CDR whenever FCI changes. The generation of CDR
based on FCI changes is controlled through the CLI command gtpp attribute furnish-charging-information in
GTPP Server Group Configuration mode. If the furnish-charging-information attribute
is configured then whenever FCI changes the CDR will be generated.
If this attribute is not configured then even if the FCI changes
there will be no generation of CDR.
Upon configuring the furnish-charging-information attribute,
the CDR field "pSFurnishChargingInformation" will be included in
the custom24 GTPP dictionary.
Modified GTPP Features
This section
identifies GTPP features modified in release 14.0 and contains two
types of modifications: enhancements and behavior changes. Feature
enhancements are modifications based on customer change requests.
Feature behavior changes are modifications based on software error
corrections (bug fixes) that result in a change in the behavior
of the feature.
Display of Warning
Message on CLI for GTPP Dictionary Configuration/Change
Applicable Products:
GGSN, PDG/TTG, P-GW, SGSN, S-GW
A warning message is
always displayed whenever an existing GTPP dictionary is being changed
or a new GTPP dictionary is configured irrespective of whether or
not the calls are active on the system.
This change will require
user's input on the CLI console for GTPP dictionary configuration /change.
Processing of LOSDV
Container Attributes in e-GCDR
Applicable Products:
GGSN
Previous Behavior:
When the CLI command gtpp
egcdr service-data-flow threshold interval was configured
to ‘n’ seconds, the difference between “timeOfFirstUsage” and “timeOfReport” of
LOSDV was always ‘n’ seconds for the LOSDVs closed
due to “service-data-flow” threshold. Here, changeTime
of LOSDV was reported incorrectly. It was always timeOfFirstUsage + ‘n’.
This does not hold true when the traffic for a particular content
ID was not continuous.
New Behavior: When
the command gtpp
egcdr service-data-flow threshold interval is configured
to ‘n’ seconds, the difference between “timeOfFirstUsage” and “timeOfReport” of
LOSDV can be any value between 1 and ‘n’ seconds
depending on the continuity of traffic. If the traffic is not continuous,
the difference is less than ‘n’ seconds. And if
the traffic is continuous the difference will be ‘n’ seconds.
When this CLI command is configured in the GTPP Server Group Configuration
mode, each LOSDV will be closed at configured regular interval after
the arrival of first packet.

Modified Diameter
Features
This section
identifies Diameter features modified in release 14.0. There are
two kinds of modified features: enhancements and behavior changes.
Enhancements are feature changes based on customer change requests.
Behavior changes are feature changes that modify an existing behavior
and may result from software error corrections (bug fixes).
Flag Change in Gx
Specific Diameter AVPs - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
P-GW
Previous Behavior:
In the Diameter dictionary dpca-custom9, the flags for the AVPs
Priority-Level, Pre-emption-Capability, Pre-emption-Vulnerability
were set to V bit only.
New Behavior: Now
these AVPs will show both V and M bit. This change is made to be
compliant with the standard spec 3GPP TS 29.212 V8.6.0.
Location Change
Reporting Through Gy - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW
Omitted Content: This
change occurred in the November 07, 2012 code drop but was omitted
from this document until now.
Previous Behavior:
-
If LOCATION_ANY
trigger is set and if there is a change in CELL ID, LAC, MCC, or
MNC, the CCR-U message was never sent for RATING_CONDITION_CHANGE.
-
If both LOCATION_ANY
and LOCATION_CELLID triggers are set and if there is a change
in the CELL ID, the CCR-U message is generated with CHANGEINLOCATION_ANY trigger
for dcca-custom13 dictionary, and for the other dictionaries CCR-U
is generated with CHANGEINLOCATION_CellId trigger.
Similarly when both
these triggers are set and if there is a change in LAC, MCC, or
MNC, for all dictionaries except dcca-custom13, the CCR-U message
is generated with the appropriate trigger, for example, CHANGEINLOCATION_LAC
for any change in LAC, CHANGEINLOCATION_MCC for any change
in MCC, etc.
New Behavior:
-
If LOCATION_ANY
trigger is set and if there is a change in CELL ID, LAC, MCC, or
MNC, CCR-U message is sent for RATING_CONDITION_CHANGE
with CHANGEINLOCATION_ANY trigger.
-
If both LOCATION_ANY
and LOCATION_CELLID triggers are set and if there is a change
in the CELL ID, the CCR-U message is generated with CHANGEINLOCATION_ANY and
CHANGEINLOCATION_CellId triggers.
Similarly, when both
these triggers are set and if there is a change in LAC, MCC, or
MNC, the CCR-U message is generated with CHANGEINLOCATION_ANY
and the appropriate trigger, for example, CHANGEINLOCATION_LAC,
CHANGEINLOCATION_MCC, etc.
QoS-Information-AVP
Not Sent in CCR-U During IRAT with S4-SGSN
Applicable Product(s):
SAEGW
Omitted Content: This
change occurred in the November 07, 2012 code drop but was omitted
from this document until now.
The requirement to
send APN-AMBR DL/UL as part of QoS-Information AVP in all
update requests has been implemented. This will be sent irrespective
of QoS-change event-trigger set by the PCRF.
Triggering of UBR
for APN-AMBR After CCA-U of QOS_CHANGE
Applicable Product(s):
P-GW, SAEGW
Omitted Content: This
change occurred in the November 07, 2012 code drop but was omitted
from this document until now.
Previous Behavior:
-
If in CCA-U neither
APN-AMBR UL/DL is present for QoS-change request for APN-AMBR
UL/DL change, IMSA returned a Failure to SM.
-
The same behavior was
also seen when default Bearer QoS was not authorized by PCRF, even
though Default-Bearer-QoS change happened in the CCR-U.
This caused EGTP_MODIFY_BEARER_FAILURE_INDICATION
in GTPv2 and changes in CCA-U were not getting applied.
New Behavior: In
the above scenarios, if CCA-U does not have the values for APN-AMBR
UL/DL in case 1 or Default-Bearer-QoS in case 2, IMSA will
return Success to SM and EGTP_MODIFY_BEARER_RESPONSE
msgtype will be seen in GTPv2.

Applicable Product(s):
ASN-GW, GGSN, HSGW, MME, PDG, PDIF, P-GW, SCM, SGSN, S-GW, TTG
Diameter infrastructure
needs to be enhanced to allow multiple endpoints (specifically that are
used under S6a, S13 and SLg) to share the same Origin Host/Origin
Realm.
Previous Behavior:
When two (or more) Diameter endpoints are configured with origin
hosts having same origin host name, a failure message “Failure:
FAILED due to duplicate entry” was displayed on the CLI
console.
New Behavior: This
restriction will no longer be present as it will now allow the user
to configure multiple endpoints with the same origin host name.
Update Bearer Request
for GBR Bearer Modification
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, P-GW
Previous Behavior:
An Update Bearer Request (UBR) was not sent for any change in the
uplink and downlink GBR values of a GBR dedicated bearer.
New Behavior: GBR
change will now trigger an UBR towards the access side.

causeForRecClosing
in P-GW Record - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
P-GW
Previous Behavior:
When Gy interface sent Abort Session Request (ASR), the PGW-CDR “causeForRecClosing” was
shown as Normal Release.
New Behavior: For
the same scenario, the CDR “causeForRecClosing” will
now be indicating as Abnormal Release only for Custom40 dictionary.
CCR-U Triggering
over Gy Interface for QoS Change - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, P-GW
Previous Behavior:
When an event trigger, for example, RAT change was generated from
the access side and for which PCRF returned new QoS value for a
bearer, there will be one CCR-U sent to OCS over Gy interface containing
change condition as QOS_CHANGE and another CCR-U containing
change condition as RAT_CHANGE.
New Behavior: In
the above mentioned event i.e. RAT_CHANGE from access side
and for the same event PCRF returning new QoS value, there will
be only one CCR-U sent to the OCS containing both the change conditions
i.e. RAT_CHANGE and QOS_CHANGE.
Change in Diameter
AVP Flags
Applicable Product(s):
PDSN, MME, SGSN
Previous Behavior:
The M bit was not set for the following AVPs:
-
-
-
-

New Behavior: The
flag value for the following AVPs in the CCR messages has been changed
from V to M:
-
RAT-Type - included
in standard PDSN Ty and Ty-plus dictionaries
-
Priority-Level - included
in Diameter HSS custom1 and standard dictionaries for MME and SGSN
products
-
Pre-emption-Capability
- included in Diameter HSS custom1 and standard dictionaries for
MME and SGSN products

MME and SGSN products
Monitoring-Key AVP
- Behavioral Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Previous Behavior:
PCEF considered the Monitoring-Key AVP as an unsigned integer internally
and hence stripped off the insignificant zeroes in the AVP while
encoding/decoding it over Gx.
New Behavior: The
insignificant zeroes are not stripped off while encoding/decoding
the Monitoring-Key AVP over Gx.
Support for Configuring
Pending Outstanding Requests at DPCA - Behavioral Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN
Previous Behavior:
Standalone GGSN used to support a single pending update request
per bearer (multiple pending update requests per IP CAN session).
New Behavior: In
this release, GGSN will support only one pending update request
per IP CAN session.

Diameter Accounting
Management Changes as of June 29, 2012
This section
provides information on Diameter accounting management changes available
in release 14.0.
Diameter Feature
Changes
This section
identifies Diameter feature changes available in release 14.0.
IMPORTANT:
For more information
regarding features in this section, refer to the AAA Interface Administration
and Reference for this release.
New Diameter Features
This section
identifies new Diameter features available in release 14.0.
Diameter Host Select
Template Configuration
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
This feature allows
the user to configure Diameter host template at global configuration level.
Diameter host template is a table of peer servers that can be shared
by different Diameter services. This template can be configured
using diameter-host-template command
in the Global Configuration Mode.
IMPORTANT:
Currently, only Gx service
can be associated with the template.
When this command is
configured, it allows the user to specify the name of a new or existing Diameter
host template and then enters the Diameter Host Select mode. You
can configure up to 256 templates on the system.
To use the template,
Diameter applications must be associated with the template. For example,
using diameter host-select-template command
in Policy Control Configuration Mode will bind the IMS Authorization
Service to the configured Diameter host select template. When an
association is made to the template, the system selects the Diameter
peer to be contacted based on rows configured in the table and the
algorithm configured for selecting rows in the table. The system
uses the returned host name(s) to contact the primary PCRF (and
secondary if configured) and establish the call.
Dynamic Diameter
Dictionary Configuration
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Apart from the standard
and customer-specific dictionaries supported currently in the Diameter
application, this feature allows the dynamic configuration of any
new Diameter dictionaries at run time. This feature can be configured
using diameter dynamic-dictionary command
in the Global Configuration Mode. For more information on this command,
refer to the Command Line
Interface Reference.
IMPORTANT:
You can configure and
load up to a maximum of 10 dynamic dictionaries in to the system.
To perform this configuration,
you should first create a text file in ABNF format and configure
all the required Diameter AVPs and command codes in the file. Then,
save the file in flash or some URL that will be accessible by the
system.
Now, configure a dynamic
dictionary with an unique name and map it to the URL of the file to
be loaded dynamically in to the system at the global configuration
level.
When the names of the
dynamic dictionaries and their URLs are configured, the corresponding
files at the respective URLs are parsed and populated in all SessMgr
and AAAmgr facilities as new dictionaries and kept available to
be used when these dictionary names are configured under any Diameter
application level or AAA group.
When a dynamic dictionary
name is configured under an application such as IMS Authorization
Service or in a AAA group, the corresponding dictionary (which is
already loaded in SessMgrs and AAAMgrs) entry will be used.
Failure Handling
Template Configuration
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
This feature allows the
user to configure Failure Handling template at Global Configuration level.
The failure handling template defines the action to be taken when
the Diameter application encounters a failure for example, a result-code
failure, tx-expiry or response-timeout. The application will take
the action given by the template. This template can be configured
using failure-handling-template command
in the Global Configuration Mode.
IMPORTANT:
A maximum of 64 templates
can be configured on the system.
If there are different
failure handling configurations present within the template for
the same message type, the action is applied as per the latest error
encountered.
To use the template, Diameter
applications must be associated with the template. For example,
using associate failure-handling-template command
in Credit Control Configuration Mode will bind the Diameter Credit
Control Application (DCCA) service to the configured failure handling
template. When an association is made to the template, in the event
of a failure, the system takes the action as defined in the failure handling
template. Both IMS Authorization (Gx) and DCCA (Gy) services can
be currently associated with the template.
Support of Diameter
AVP sent by PCRF to GGSN/P-GW
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, P-GW
Support of Diameter
AVP sent by PCRF to GGSN/P-GW via Gx passed to (e)G-CDR
and PGW-CDR. The AVP added is:
3GPP-Charging-Characteristics
This can be sent in
CCA- INITIAL / UPDATE / TERMINATE and RAR.
Modified Diameter
Features
This section
identifies Diameter features modified in release 14.0. There are
two kinds of modified features: enhancements and behavior changes.
Enhancements are feature changes based on customer change requests.
Behavior changes are feature changes that modify an existing behavior
and may result from software error corrections (bug fixes).
APN-specific APN-OI-Replacement
- Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
MME
Previous Behavior:
MME ignored the APN-OI-Replacement AVP value in the APN data provided
by the HSS.
New Behavior: The
MME now uses the APN-OI-Replacement AVP value provided by the HSS
to construct the FQDN for DNS resolution.
CCR-U with Volume
Report – Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW
Previous Behavior:
When volume usage report was sent while usage monitoring was still
active, the system continued with existing thresholds configured.
New Behavior: When
volume report is sent while usage monitoring is still active, the
volume threshold is set to infinite until response is received from PCRF.
Diameter Cause Code
Enhancement - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN
Previous Behavior:
The Diameter disconnect cause “DO_NOT_WANT_TO_TALK_TO_YOU “in
the disconnect peer request was treated as an admin disable. When
the system gets into this state the connection was not retried and
the connection was enabled by the administrator using the diameter enable endpoint command
in the Exec mode.
New Behavior: If
a reconnect timer value is configured through the reconnect-timeout command
in the Diameter Endpoint Configuration mode, then remote disconnected
peers with disconnect cause “DO_NOT_WANT_TO_TALK_TO_YOU” will
be automatically reconnected when the timer expires.
Diameter SCTP Enhancements
- Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
MME
Previous Behavior:
When an SCTP association is established and secondary IP addresses
are dynamically added or removed, the SCTP connection was terminated.
New Behavior: Whenever
a secondary IP address is dynamically added or removed from an SCTP
association, the affected host notifies its peer of the change in configuration
using the Address Configuration Change Chunk (ASCONF) chunk without terminating
the SCTP connection.
IMEI and IMSI TBCD
Format in Gy interface - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN
Previous Behavior:
Diameter Gy interface was sending the IMEI and IMSI in STRING format
instead of “Standard Format” called TBCD (Telephony
Binary Coded Decimal String).
New Behavior: Per
the standard spec 3GPP TS 23.003, IMEI and IMSI will now be sent
in TBCD format through the Gy interface.
IPv6 Support for
WLAN-CDRs from PDG/TTG - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
PDG, TTG
Previous Behavior:
The WLAN-CDRs generated by PDG/TTG supported only IPv4
version encoding for the WLAN-CDR fields “PDG Address” and “Served
WLAN PDP Address”.
New Behavior: PDG/TTG
now supports IPv6 for both service and subscriber IP addresses.
So, the WLAN-CDR generated for IPv6 based calls (pdg-service or
subscriber) generates WLAN-CDRs with IPv6 format for subscriber/PDG
service in it.
Removed 3GPP Rel.
6 Gx Interface Support
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Omitted Content: This
change occurred in the June 29, 2012 code drop but was omitted from
this document until now.
Note that, in this
release, the 3GPP Rel. 6 interface functionality is not supported.
Sending CCR-T on
Call Termination - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Omitted Content: This
change occurred in the June 29, 2012 code drop but was omitted from
this document until now.
Previous Behavior:
CCR-T message was not sent immediately in a scenario where subscriber
session is terminated when there is a pending message.
New Behavior: CCR-T
will be sent immediately even if there are some pending CCR-Us and
the call will be terminated without waiting for the response of
CCR-U.
Sending CCR-T on
Call Termination in Failure Handling Continue - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Previous Behavior:
IMS authorization session was deleted after applying the failure
action. Hence, there were no active sessions for IMS authorization
after applying the failure action.
New Behavior: IMS
authorization session is now preserved to send the CCR-T request
message to PCRF on call termination. After applying the failure
action continue,
IMS authorization session appears to be active in the show CLI command
output.
Session Termination
with Single CCR-T - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
GGSN, HA, HSGW, IPSG, PDSN, P-GW, S-GW
Previous Behavior:
In the earlier design, CCR-U and CCR-T were sent for the termination
of sub-session and last sub-session respectively. The BEARER_ID
of the terminated last sub-session was included in the CCR-T request
message.
New Behavior: In
the new design, a single CCR-T is sent for the termination of the
entire session and no CCR-U is sent for termination of individual
sub-sessions. The Bearer-Identifier and Bearer-Operation AVPs will
no longer be sent in the CCR-T.
SM-IMSA-ECSv2 Redesign
- Behavior Changes
Applicable Product(s):
P-GW, ACS
Previous Behavior 1:
When call is cleared, CCR-U was sent for each bearer with bearer-operation
as TERMINATION and CCR-T sent for last bearer (with Bearer-Identifier/Bearer-Operation
AVPs).
New Behavior 1:
While clearing the call, CCR-Us will not be sent to PCRF for secondary
bearers. Only single CCR-T will be sent without bearer-id.
Previous Behavior 2:
IMSA used to detect immediate failure before sending RAA, like unknown_bearer_id,
rule-failures.
New Behavior 2:
RAA will always be sent with success. Another CCR-U will be generated
to report failures and rule(s) status.
Previous Behavior 3:
A few statistics were printed at IMSA session (bearer level).
New Behavior 3:
Statistics are now printed at control session level (subscriber level).
Support for ESP
Protocol in Flow Description - Behavior Change
Applicable Product(s):
P-GW, ACS
Previous Behavior:
When flow descriptions of protocol 50 (ESP - Encap Security Payload)
were installed in dynamic rules, PCEF used to reject rule installation.
New Behavior: Rules
with flow description of protocol 50 is supported in PCEF and such
rules are successfully installed.
