Usage Guidelines

Use this command to associate a specific DSCP marking template with this IuPS service and associated Iu interface. The DSCP template provides a mechanism for differentiated services code point (DSCP) marking of control packets and signaling messages at the SGSN's M3UA level on the Iu interface. This DSCP marking enables the SGSN to perform classifying and managing of network traffic and to determine quality of service (QoS) for the interface to the IP network.

Syntax

Syntax Description

empty-cr procedure reject
[ default | no ] empty-cr procedure reject

default | no

Using either default or no with the command disables the rejection function and returns the system to the default behavior, which is to ignore receipt of the empty CRs.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to enable/disable the procedure for handling empty (not containing dataparameters) Connection Request (CR) messages.

This feature can be used in the following scenario: During 4G to 3G handovers, some Connection Requests from mobile subscribers might be ignored by the SGSN, even though their UE would display that the WCDMA was available. The RNC would send an SCCP Connection Request (CR) over the Iu interface to the SGSN. Normally, this message contains a RANAP message and GMM, but according to 3GPP and ITU Q.713 standards, it is permissible to send an SCCP CR without any data parameters. In such a situation, normally the SGSN would ignore these SCCP CR messages, because without these data parameters the SGSN would be unable to derive the DeMux key which is the basis for determining the Session Manager instance to be used for a subscriber. Using this feature allows the SGSN to send a Reject to the mobile subscriber when an "empty" SCCP CR is sent from their UE.

default

Resets the values to defaults. Forced authentication is enabled for all the types of event procedures with the default values for determining frequency for authentication.

no

Disables the specified authentication configuration.

inter-sgsn-rau

Default: enabled

Enables/disables authentication for inter-SGSN RAU.

The SGSN does not remember previous inter-SGSN-RAU failures for a P-TMSI/RAI because the SGSN clears all contexts on the occurrence of an inter-SGSN-RAU security failure. So the next inter-SGSN-RAU can only be authenticated forcefully if it comes before the previous context is cleared. This type of forced authentication is enabled by default because this type of failure is fairly common.

local-messages count frequency

Default: 5

Enables/ disables authentication for local messages (such as local RAUs, Service Requests, Detach Requests, etc) . Consecutive security failures is fairly rare for local messages so the default count frequency is fairly high, 5. Setting the count frequency enables the feature and sets the number of consecurity local message security failures that must occur prior t o authentication being forced.

frequency: Enter an integer from 1 to 10.

non-local-messages count count

Default: 1

Enables/ disables authentication for non-local messages (such as inter-RAT RAUs and all types of attaches) . Consecutive security failures for non-local messages is fairly common so the default count frequency is 1. Setting the count frequency enables the feature and sets the number of consecurity non-local message security failures that must occur prior t o authentication being forced.

frequency: Enter an integer from 1 to 10.

Usage Guidelines

GMM authentication is optional for UMTS. When GMM authentication is skipped, the SGSN and the MS continue to re-use the latest keys exchanged during the most recent GMM authentication procedure. This can result in the SGSN and the MS going out of sync with the CK and IK currently in use. If a mismatch occurs when the MS continues to use the correct parameters (e.g., cksn or P-TMSI signature) in the next Iu and if the SGSN skips authentication on the Iu, then, usually, the security mode will timeout or be rejected because the MS will not be able to decipher or perform an integrity check on the network messages. This scenario results in a lot of useless signaling in the network. This command allows the operator to enable a forced GMM authentication that will either resolve this type of problem or avoid it. As well, the operator can configure a frequency of authentication that best meets their needs.

This commands configures parameters for the GTP user (GTP-U) dataplane.

number : Must be an integer from 0 through 15.

retransmission-timeout seconds

Default: 5

Configures the retransmission timeout for GTPU packets in seconds.

seconds : Must be an integer from 1 through 20.

sync-echo-with-peer

This keyword is applicable to the SGSN only.

This keyword enables the SGSN to synchronize path management procedures with the peer after a GTP service restart recovery.

After GTP service recovery, the SGSN restarts the timers for GTP echo transmission, hence a drift in echo request transmission time (from the pre-recovery time) can occur causing the SGSN to be out of sync with the peer. By using this keyword, when the SGSN receives the first Echo Request (GTPC or GTPU) from the peer after the GTP service restart, in addition to replying with an ECHO Response, the SGSN transmits an ECHO Request to the peer and the SGSN restarts the timers associated with the path management procedures. This causes the path management procedure at SGSN to synchronize with the peer node.

Default: Enabled

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to configure GTP-U parameters for the Iu-PS interface.

This keyword resets the configuration to the default cause ID number.

ranap-cause cause_number

This number identifies the reason the SGSN has detected, from Iu Release messages, for the loss of radio coverage (LORC). This value is included in the IE messages the SGSN sends to either the GGSN or the GGSN and the peer SGSN to indicate LORC state. The range of reasons is a part of the set defined by 3GPP 25413.

cause_number : Must be an integer from 1 to 512.

Default: 46 (MS/UE radio connection lost)

Usage Guidelines

By defining a cause code, the SGSN knows to detect the LORC state of the mobile from Iu Release messages it receives for the subscriber. This configuration also instructs the SGSN to include the defined cause code for the LORC state in the IE portion of various messages sent to the GGSN and optionally the peer SGSN.

This command is one of the two commands required to enable the SGSN to work with the GGSN and, optionally the peer SGSN, to implement the Overcharging Protection feature (see the SGSN Overview in the SGSN Administration Guide for feature details.

3GPP TS 25.231 section 4.2.5 describes the functionality of the SGSN to handle CS-PS (circuit-switching/packet-switching) coordination for attached networks not having a Gs-interface. In compliance with the standard, the SGSN rejects an Attach in a MOCN configuration with cause 'CS-PS coordination required', after learning the IMSI, to facilitate the RNC choosing the same operator for both CS and PS domains.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to configure the PLMN associated with the SGSN. There can only be one PLMN associated with an SGSN unless one of the following features is enabled and configured: network sharing or multiple PLMN.

For network sharing, use of the network-sharing keywords make it possible to identify more than one PLMN. Including the PLMN identified initially. None have precedence. They are all treated equally but they must each be unique. In a MOCN configuration, the PLMN list will not be used as there would only be one local PLMN.
