7.1 Parameters for Sx session management
These parameters are used to control the functionality of the UP function related to an individual PDN connection, IP-CAN session, TDF session or TDF in unsolicited reporting mode as well as to inform about events occurring at the UP function. As the functionality of the respective UP functions differs, most parameters are specific to one or two of the reference points Sxa (between SGW-C and SGW-U), Sxb (PGW-C and PGW-U) and Sxc (TDF-C and TDF-U).
The Sx session management procedures however will use the relevant parameters in the same way for all Sx reference points: the Sx session establishment procedure as well as the Sx session modification procedure provide the control parameters to the UP function, the Sx session termination procedure removes all control parameters related to an Sx session and the Sx session level reporting procedure informs the CP function about events related to the Sx session that are detected by the UP function.
The parameters over Sx provided from CP function to UP function are grouped into session related parameters and four different rules, one "detection" rule and three different "enforcement" rules:
– Packet Detection Rule (PDR), with information describing what packets should receive a certain treatment (e.g. forwarding and other types of enforcement).
– Forwarding Action Rule (FAR), contains information on whether forwarding, dropping or buffering is to be applied to a packet.
– Usage Reporting Rule (URR), contains information that defines a certain measurement and how it shall be reported.
– QoS Enforcement Rule (QER), contains information related to QoS enforcement of traffic.
The UP function provides parameters over Sx to the CP function sending a Usage Report.
7.2 Session context
The session context comprises the session related parameters and all PDRs, URRs, QERs and FARs with the same Session ID.
The following table describes the session related parameters provided over Sx.

7.7 Usage Report generated by UP function
The UP function sends the usage report to inform the CP function about the measurement of an active URR or about the detection of application traffic of an active Packet Detection Rule. For each URR, the usage report may be generated repeatedly, i.e. as long as any one of the valid event triggers applies. A final usage report is sent for a URR when it is no longer active, i.e. either the URR is removed or all the references to this URR in any of the Packet Detection Rules belonging to the Sx session.

7.8 Functional description
7.8.1 General
This clause describes how the CP function provides information over Sx to realize forwarding, reporting etc on different aggregation levels.
7.8.2 PDN connection and TDF session level context
The PDN connection or TDF session level context is realized over Sx by generating a Usage Reporting Rule and a QoS Enforcement Rule.
To apply PDN Connection or TDF session level reporting and MBR enforcement, the CP function provides over Sx:
– A URR that describes the reporting requirement for the PDN Connection or TDF session.
– A QER that describes the QoS enforcement actions that apply, i.e. a QER with APN-AMBR value (in case of PGW) or a QER with TDF session MBR (in case of TDF).
For session level reporting, the CP function includes references to the URR (i.e. URR Rule ID) in each Packet Detection Rule activated for the PDN Connection or TDF session. In case of PDN Connection or TDF session level usage monitoring where some SDF(s) are excluded, the CP function only includes a reference to the URR in those Packet Detection Rules that shall be included in the report.
For APN-AMBR policing, the CP function includes references (Rule ID) to the QER containing the APN-AMBR value in each Packet Detection Rule for non GBR traffic activated for the PDN Connection. The CP function shall apply the same QER for all Packet Detection Rules for non GBR traffic associated with any of the active PDN Connections of the same APN.
For TDF session MBR policing, the CP function includes references (Rule ID) to the QER containing the TDF session MBR value in each Packet Detection Rule activated for the TDF session.
7.8.3 Bearer related context
The bearer context is realized over Sx by generating one or two Forwarding Action Rules, a Usage Reporting Rule and a QoS Enforcement Rule that correspond to the bearer. In particular, the CP function may provide to the UP function for each active bearer:
– A Usage Reporting Rule that describes the reporting requirement for the bearer, including reporting events, measurement type etc for the bearer reports.
– A QoS Enforcement Rule that describe the QoS enforcement actions that apply to the bearer, including the bearer MBR.
– Forwarding Action Rules describe the forwarding behaviour for the bearer. One Forwarding Action Rule is required for the downlink direction (in case of PGW or SGW) and one for the uplink direction (in case of SGW).
NOTE: The CP function maintains the association between the EPS Bearer ID and the rules on Sx corresponding to bearer level enforcement and reports. There is no need to provide a Bearer ID to the UP function.
The CP function associates, based on the bearer binding decisions, every Packet Detection Rule that is activated for a bearer with the URR, QER and FARs applicable for the this bearer by including references (Rule IDs) in the PDR:
– For bearer level reporting, the CP function includes a reference (Rule ID) to the URR for the bearer.
– For bearer level policing, the CP function includes a reference (Rule ID) to the QER for the bearer.
– For forwarding of packets over a bearer (GTP-U encapsulation), the CP function includes a reference (Rule ID) to the FAR the bearer. This is done per direction (UL and DL).
7.8.4 Measurement key related context
The CP function provides a Usage Reporting Rule for each usage report that needs to be provided by the UP function. The CP function maintains a mapping between the Charging Key and/or Monitoring Key applicable for a SDF and the Measurement Key of the URR provided over Sx. For example, the CP function may provide one URR for each Charging Key and one URR for each Monitoring Key or may decide to provide a single URR for a Charging Key and a Monitoring Key in case there is complete overlap in the measurement requirements. Other mappings are also possible as determined by the CP function and is not limited by the standard as long as the reporting requirements from the CP function towards the OFCS/OCS and PCRF are fulfilled.
To associate traffic covered by a Packet Detection Rule with one or more measurement keys on Sx, the CP function includes in the Packet Detection Rule a reference to each URR (Rule ID) that is applicable for the traffic covered by the PDR.
7.9 Parameters for Sx management
7.9.1 Parameters for PFD management
The PGW-C/TDF-C can manage PFD sets in the applicable PGW-U/TDF-U independent of the Sx session. The management (provision or remove) of multiple PFD sets belonging to different Application IDs can be done with the same PFD management request message.
