A.2a PN Access control: Parental control

22.2593GPPService requirements for Personal Network Management (PNM)Stage 1TS

Alice has subscribed to PNM private network service. She has two UEs with her in the PN – UE 1a and UE 1b. She decides to give UE 1b to her son Bob. Bob is still a young kid and Alice worries about him getting calls from strangers. So she registers her UE (UE 1a) as default UE for access control. She then creates an access list that contains a list of registered callers (Guest UEs). Any calls from the registered callers (e.g. UE 3) or Guests are allowed to go through to the private UE (Bob’s UE) directly. In case of unregistered callers (e.g. UE 2), the PN AS rejects the call directly or the PN Server queries Alice (UE 1a) whether the call can be continued. Alice can respond by allowing or disallowing (cancelling) the call. In addition, she may register the unregistered caller dynamically (on the fly) during session initiation procedures itself.
