P-GW Feature Changes as of June 29, 2012

This section provides information on P-GW feature changes in release 14.0.

IMPORTANT:

For more information regarding features in this section, refer to the Packet Data Network Gateway Administration Guide for this release.

New P-GW Features

This section identifies new P-GW features available in release 14.0.

CDR Push Supported

A new CLI command has been added to enable sending local CDR files to a remote host. When enabled, the CDR files under the GTPP group will be sent to the configured remote system.

Refer to the gtpp storage-server local file command in the Modified P-GW Configuration Commands section in this chapter for additional information.

Closed Subscriber Groups Support

Corrected Content: This section includes corrections to previously published content. The name of this new feature in the previously published content was Closed Subscriber Group.

The P-GW does not currently support Closed Subscriber Groups (CSG) Information Elements (IEs) and Call Detail Record (PGW-CDR that includes a CSG record). Refer to Closed Subscriber Group in the MME Administration Guide for more information about this feature.

Collision Handling for MBR, UBR, CBR Procedures

The collision scenario while performing Modify-Bearer-Request, Update-Bearer-Request, and Create-Bearer-Request procedures occur as follows. A UE which has exhausted its quota is trying to attach. P-GW will send the PCRF a CCR-I. PCRF sends back CCR-A. P-GW sends back Create-Session-Response. PCRF will obtain the quota from the Balance Manager and find that it is exhausted. PCRF will immediately initiate an RAR with new quota to inform P-GW about the exhausted condition. P-GW initiates Update-Bearer-Request. At S-GW, the S1-U has not moved to connected state yet. S-GW forwards Update-Bearer-Request to MME. MMEs in the network have been modified to support this scenario by suspending Update-Bearer-Request processing for a while and sending Modify-Bearer-Req to S-GW. This causes the collision at the S-GW.

With this feature, the S-GW rejects Update-Bearer-Request from the P-GW if S1-U is not connected. When the P-GW receives a negative Update-Bearer-Response, it starts a timer. After timer expiry, it informs the PCRF about the transient failure. PCRF sends RAR with the quota again. This time Update-Bearer-Request will succeed.

Refer to the egtp command in the New P-GW Configuration Commands section in this chapter for additional information.

DHCPv6 Support

Corrected Content: This section includes corrections to previously published content. Additional feature details have been added.

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for IPv6 enables the DHCP servers to pass the configuration parameters, such as IPv6 network addresses to IPv6 nodes. It offers the capability of allocating the reusable network addresses and additional configuration functionality automatically.

The DHCPv6 support does not just feature the address allocation, but also fulfills the requirements of Network Layer IP parameters. Apart from these canonical usage modes, DHCPv6's Prefix-Delegation (DHCP-PD) has also been standardized by 3GPP (Rel 10) for “network-behind-ue” scenarios. P-GW manages IPv6 prefix life-cycle just like it manages IPv4 addresses, thus it is responsible for allocation, renew, and release of these prefixes during the lifetime of a call. IPv6 prefixes may be obtained from either local-pool, AAA (RADIUS/DIAMETER), or external DHCPv6 servers. Stateless DHCPv6 procedures are used to supply higher layer IP parameters to the end host.

DHCPv6 support for P-GW covers the following requirements:

- RFC 3633, prefix delegation and Stateless services (primarily via the INFORMATION-REQUEST) mechanism
- RFC 2132, DHCP Options and BOOTP Vendor Extensions
- RFC 4039, Rapid Commit Support

This feature encompasses a number of CLI command changes. Refer to the New, Modified, and Deprecated P-GW Configuration Commands sections in this chapter for additional information.

Dual-stack IP Addresses

This feature adds support for dual stack user layer and the dual address bearer flag on the Gn interface on the GGSN/P-GW. During inter-RAT mobility between 4G and 3G/2G, an EPS bearer with PDN type IPv4v6 is mapped one-to-one to PDP type IPv4v6.

Dynamic GTP Echo Timer

The dynamic echo timer has been added in this release to enable the eGTP and GTP-U services to better manage GTP paths during network congestion. As opposed to the default echo timer which uses fixed intervals and retransmission timers, the dynamic echo timer uses a calculated round trip timer (RTT) that is generated once a full request/response procedure has completed. A multiplier can be added to the calculation for additional support during congestion periods.

This feature encompasses a number of CLI command changes. Refer to the New, Modified, and Deprecated P-GW Configuration Commands sections in this chapter for additional information.

Fair Usage Policy per Subscriber

This feature provides mechanisms to define and enforce Fair Usage Policy (FUP) per subscriber. It is also known as Service-Group QoS.

This feature introduces:

- Support for PCRF specified volume usage monitoring key for qos-group-of-ruledefs, and PCRF specified flow-gating for qos-group-of-ruledefs.
- It provides a way to define a Service-Group construct that may include unrelated services defined on the ASR5x00.
- It provides a mechanism to dynamically install, and remove, pre-defined Service-Groups for a subscriber over Gx.
- It provides a way to dynamically set and change QoS parameters of a Service-Group for a subscriber over Gx using CCA and RAR messages.
- QoS parameters of a Service-Group are: Flow-Status, Flow-Rate and Volume threshold.
- It allows the application of flow-rate (maximum bit rate and burst size) to a packet flow progressively at Service and Service-Group levels by DSCP marking the packets.
- Flow status gating can block, allow or redirect packets.
- It provides the ability to monitor the volume usage of a Group-of-Services. Multiple Group-of-Services can share a volume quota.
- It allows sharing configured volume threshold of a Service-Group across all services in that group. This sharing is dynamic, which means no predefined quota will be allocated per service in a Service-Group.
- Finally, it allows notification to a PCRF in a CCR-U message when volume threshold for a Group-of-Services is crossed.

For more information regarding the Service-Group QOS Support feature, refer to the New ECS Features section in the ECS Changes in Release 14.0 chapter.

IPv4 Transport Supported on S2a Interface (PMIPv6)

P-GW supports PMIPv6 over an IPv4 transport.

MSISDN Support in Gx (PMIP-PGW)

PMIP P-GW now supports receiving MSISDN in the PBU over S2a interface and making MSISDN available over Gx/Gy/Billing/LI; MSISDN is available on the same interface as when it is received over GTP interface.

Refer to the mobility-option-type-value command in the Modified P-GW Configuration Commands section in this chapter for additional information.

PCO-Based P-CSCF Address Discovery

One of the methods available to a UE to obtain the P-CSCF address(es) is by P-CSCF discovery request and provisioning of P-CSCF address(es) in the Protocol Configuration Options (PCO) IE in the session management procedures. This method is based on configuration of the potential P-CSCF addresses in the GGSN or P-GW.

This feature introduces a 128-entry table in the P-GW with one primary and one secondary P-CSCF address in each entry. For the PCO-based P-CSCF discovery method, an entry from this table will be returned to the UE. Entries are served in round robin fashion. If the same address pair is repeatedly configured in multiple entries in the table, it accomplishes the same effect as assigning a weight to that address pair. P-CSCFs will be served traffic in proportion to the number of entries in which their address appears.

Modified P-GW Features

This section identifies P-GW 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 Enhancement

Support for 2048 APNs and Virtual APNs per chassis.

Previous Behavior: Up to 1024 APNs can be configured in the P-GW.

New Behavior: Up to 2048 APNs can be configured in the P-GW.

CC Value “0F00” Sent from PCRF Mapped Incorrectly to Gy, Gz – Behavior Change

Previous Behavior: When PCRF sent CC value “0F00” in the CCA-I, it was mapped incorrectly to Gy/Gz.

New Behavior: P-GW now accepts CC value containing A-F hex values from PCRF. CC value received from PCRF is transparently mapped to PGW-CDRs and other interfaces.

CCR-U with Volume Report – Behavior Change

Previous Behavior: When volume 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 threshold is set to infinite until response is received from PCRF.

Gx Monitoring Key – Behavior Change

Previous Behavior: Insignificant zeroes in the monitoring key are stripped off while encoding/decoding it over Gx.

New Behavior: Insignificant zeroes are not stripped off while encoding/decoding the monitoring key AVP over Gx.

Gx Session Sync Up Using Revalidation-Timeout AVP

PCEF(P-GW) shall sync up Gx session with PCRF using Revalidation-Timeout AVP.

PCRF shall arm/subscribe Event-Trigger (REVALIDATION_TIMEOUT, 22) to PCEF (P-GW) and provide Revalidation-Time AVP.

P-GW shall request policy update by sending Credit-Control-Request Update when revalidation time expires.

IMSA Flow Description – Behavior Change

Previous Behavior: When flow descriptions of protocol 50 were installed in dynamic rules, PCEF rejected rule installation.

New Behavior: Rules with flow descriptions of protocol 50 now supported in PCEF and such rules are successfully installed.

IMSA SGx Module Implementation – Behavior Changes

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-id/bearer-op AVPs).

New Behavior 1: While clearing the call, CCR-Us won't 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 now printed at control session level (subscriber level).

IP Pool Optimization

This feature allows utilizing a smaller IP pool internally, but advertising a larger IP pool on external routes.

Previous Behavior: IP pool code generates the pool route, based on the IP pool range.

New Behavior: A new pool-route option has been added to the ip pool command to support this feature. When IP pool route is configured, the default fragments are not generated/installed, rather pool route based fragment would be created and installed in the kernel as a route.

Refer to the ip pool command in the Modified P-GW Configuration Commands section in this chapter for additional information.

L2TP Tunneling Enhancement

The following scenarios have been confirmed:

- Overlapping IP addresses inside an L2TP tunnel are supported; operators allowed to not define local IP pools in case of L2TP tunneling in conjunction with a specific APN.
- Multiple L2TP tunneling destinations and tunnel load balancing supported.

S6b – Behavior Change

Previous Behavior: Auth-App-Id was sent as 16777999 under CER/AAA messages for S6b-standard, as well as S6b-Custom dictionary.

New Behavior: Auth-App-Id will be sent as 16777272 for s6b-standard dictionary.

Usage Report Sent During RAT-Change

When an Inter-RAT handover happens, P-GW shall send CCR (UPDATE_REQUEST) to PCRF with Event-Trigger AVP setting to USAGE_REPORT and RAT_CHANGE together with Usage-Monitoring-Information.

CLI command event-update has been expanded to customize sending of Usage-Monitoring-Information based on specific event triggers.
