25.7.8 Process Insert_VCSG_Subs_Data_Stand_Alone_CSS

29.0023GPPMobile Application Part (MAP) specificationRelease 17TS

This process is used by the CSS to transfer CSG subscriber data from the CSS to the VLR or the SGSN in a stand alone mode, i.e. in a separate dialogue. This is done whenever a change of CSG subscriber data in the CSS is performed either by the operator or by the subscriber and this change has to be reported to the VLR or the SGSN.

Sheet 1: The CSS may wait for each MAP_INSERT_SUBSCRIBER_DATA request to be acknowledged before it sends the next request, or it may handle the requests and the confirmations in parallel.

Sheet 1, sheet 2: If the VLR or the SGSN has indicated that it does not support a service or feature which the CSS operator regards as essential for the subscriber, the macro Wait_for_Insert_VCSG_Subs_Data_Cnf takes the Replace_Service exit.

Sheet 1, sheet 2: If the CSS operator does not regard the unsupported service or feature as essential for the subscriber but the macro Wait_for_Insert_VCSG_Subs_Data_Cnf takes the Replace_Service exit, the CSS sends the data for a replacement service in a subsequent MAP_INSERT_SUBSCRIBER_DATA request.

Sheet 2: It is an operator option whether to repeat the download of CSG subscriber data if the VLR or theSGSN returns an error response. The number of repeat attempts and the interval between them is also an operator option, depending on the error response from the VLR or the SGSN.
