E.2 Gateway Relocation with MIPv4 FACoA on S2a
23.4023GPPArchitecture enhancements for non-3GPP accessesRelease 18TS
Figure E.2-1: Gateway Relocation when MIPv4 FACoA mode MM mechanism is used over S2a
When the Gateway Relocation procedure occurs in the Non-Roaming case (Figure 4.2.2-1), the vPCRF is not involved.
In the case of Roaming (Figure 4.2.3-1) and Local Breakout (Figure 4.2.3-4), the vPCRF is employed to forward messages from the hPCRF in the home PLMN, by way of the vPCRF in the VPLMN to the non-3GPP access.
1) A gateway relocation is triggered, to be initiated by the UE. This trigger is outside the scope of 3GPP standardization.
2) The UE sends a Registration Request (RRQ) RFC 5944 [12] message to the FA. Reverse Tunnelling shall be requested. This ensures that all traffic will go through the PDN GW. The RRQ message shall include the NAI-Extension RFC 2794 [34] and the Home Agent Address.
3) The Trusted non-3GPP access initiates the Gateway Control Session Establishment Procedure with the PCRF, as specified in TS 23.203 [19]. The Trusted non-3GPP access provides the information to the PCRF to correctly associate it with the IP CAN session to be established in Step 9 and also to convey subscription related parameters to the PCRF.
4) The FA processes the message according to RFC 5944 [12] and forwards a corresponding RRQ message to the PDN GW.
5) The PDN GW allocates an IP address for the UE and sends a Registration Reply (RRP) RFC 5944 [12] to the FA, including the IP address allocated for the UE.
6) The Trusted Non-3GPP Access Network initiates the Gateway Control Session Termination Procedure with the PCRF as specified in TS 23.203 [19]. The Trusted Non-3GPP Access Network no longer applies QoS policy to service data flows for this UE.
7) The FA processes the RRP according to RFC 5944 [12] and sends a corresponding RRP message to the UE.
8) IP connectivity from the UE to the PDN GW is now setup. A MIP tunnel is established between the FA in the Trusted Non-3GPP IP Access and the PDN GW.
Annex F (informative):
Deployment of Non-3GPP Trusted WLAN Access on S2a
WLAN networks may be deployed such that separate SSIDs are used for EPC-routed and non-seamless WLAN offload, e.g. <ssid_a> and <ssid_b>.
WLAN networks may also be deployed such that the same SSID in a WLAN Access Point provides different type of network access to different users attached to this Access Point. For example, a given SSID <ssid_x> may provide EPC-routed access for subscriber A and only allow non-seamless WLAN offload for subscriber B. In such a deployment it is up to the operator to provide network configuration that supports different user access preferences, subscriptions and UE configurations.
It is recommended that the UE can be configured to apply different behavior when connected to different SSIDs, e.g. allow or prevent the usage of certain applications on specific SSIDs. For example, for the SSIDs used for EPC access through S2a over Trusted WLAN, the UE can be configured to disable applications that require local connectivity (e.g. DLNA applications) and enable applications that require EPC connectivity to the default APN used for access through S2a over Trusted WLAN. Such kind of special behavior for SSIDs used for EPC access through S2a over Trusted WLAN can improve the user experience and prolong the UE battery life.
NOTE: A UE can be configured to apply different behavior when connected to different SSIDs by means which are outside the scope of this document. For example, the UE can be configured over-the-air, by means of a downloadable application, or manually.
