6.1.7.3 Application Errors
The common application errors defined in the Table 5.2.7.2-1 in 3GPP TS 29.500 [4] may also be used for the Namf_Communication service. The following application errors listed in Table 6.1.7.3-1 are specific for the Namf_Communication service.
Table 6.1.7.3-1: Application errors
Application Error |
HTTP status code |
Description |
NF_CONSUMER_REDIRECT_ONE_TXN |
307 Temporary Redirect |
The request has been asked to be redirected to a specified target. |
HANDOVER_FAILURE |
403 Forbidden |
Creation of UE context or relocation in the target AMF failed during Handover procedure causing a failure of handover. |
INTEGRITY_CHECK_FAIL |
403 Forbidden |
Integrity check of the complete registration message included in the UE context transfer request failed. |
EBI_EXHAUSTED |
403 Forbidden |
Allocation of EPS Bearer ID failed due to exhaustion of EBI as the maximum number of EBIs has already been allocated to the UE. |
EBI_REJECTED_LOCAL_POLICY |
403 Forbidden |
Allocation of EPS Bearer ID failed due to local policy at the AMF as specified in clause 4.11.1.4.1 of 3GPP TS 23.502 [3]. |
EBI_REJECTED_NO_N26 |
403 Forbidden |
The allocation of EPS Bearer ID was rejected when the AMF is in a serving PLMN that does not support 5GS-EPS interworking procedures with N26 interface. |
SUPI_OR_PEI_UNKNOWN |
403 Forbidden |
The SUPI or PEI included in the message is unknown. |
UE_IN_NON_ALLOWED_AREA |
403 Forbidden |
UE is currently in a non-allowed area hence the N1/N2 message transfer cannot be completed because the request is not associated with a regulatory prioritized service. |
UNSPECIFIED |
403 Forbidden |
The request is rejected due to unspecified reasons. |
SM_CONTEXT_RELOCATION_REQUIRED |
403 Forbidden |
The request is rejected because the SM Context should be relocated to another SMF, e.g. when AMF detects that an I-SMF or V-SMF insertion, change or removal is needed, as specified in clause 4.23 of 3GPP TS 23.502 [3]. |
UE_WITHOUT_N1_LPP_SUPPORT |
403 Forbidden |
UE does not support LPP in N1 mode hence the N1 LPP message cannot be sent to the UE. |
INVALID_SM_CONTEXT |
403 Forbidden |
The request is rejected because the SM Context is invalid for the PDU session, i.e. active SM Context for the PDU session (with same PDU Session ID) has been created on another SMF. (NOTE) |
CONTEXT_NOT_FOUND |
404 Not Found |
The requested UE Context does not exist on the AMF |
HIGHER_PRIORITY_REQUEST_ONGOING |
409 Conflict |
Paging triggered N1/N2 transfer cannot be initiated since already there is a paging due to a higher priority session ongoing. |
TEMPORARY_REJECT_REGISTRATION_ONGOING |
409 Conflict |
N1/N2 message transfer towards UE / AN cannot be initiated or the EBI assignment fails due to an ongoing registration procedure. |
TEMPORARY_REJECT_HANDOVER_ONGOING |
409 Conflict |
N1/N2 message transfer towards UE / AN cannot be initiated due to an ongoing Xn or N2 handover procedure, or the EBI assignment fails due to an ongoing N2 handover procedure or an ongoing Xn handover procedure. |
UE_IN_CM_IDLE_STATE |
409 Conflict |
N2 message transfer towards 5G-AN cannot be initiated due to the UE being in CM-IDLE state for the Access Network Type associated to the PDU session. |
MAX_ACTIVE_SESSIONS_EXCEEDED |
409 Conflict |
If the RAT type is NB-IoT, and the UE already has 2 PDU Sessions with active user plane resources. |
REJECTION_DUE_TO_PAGING_RESTRICTION |
409 Conflict |
If Paging Restrictions information restricts the N1N2MessageTransfer request from causing paging as defined in 3GPP TS 23.501 [2] clause 5.38.5. |
UE_NOT_REACHABLE |
504 Gateway Timeout |
The UE is not reachable for paging. |
UE_NOT_RESPONDING |
504 Gateway Timeout |
The UE is not responding for paging. |
NOTE: More than one SM Contexts may be present in the network for the same PDU Session ID, e.g. when the UE established a new PDU session with the same PDU Session ID and the AMF failed to release the old SM Context in the old SMF. In such a scenario, if the old SMF tries to send N1 and/or N2 Message to the RAN/UE, the AMF shall respond with this application error if the AMF identified that service operation is invoked by the SMF holding the old SM Context. |
