B.2 Network sharing management support table

32.1033GPPIntegration Reference Point (IRP) overview and usage guideRelease 17Telecommunication managementTS

There are several use cases and scenarios for network sharing. Table B.2-1 identifies the list of specifications and the status of support with regards to network sharing that satisfy the 3GPP Stage 1 requirements as defined in the present document.

Legend used in the table:

– Not Applicable (N/A):
The specification is not relevant to network sharing: example TS 32.581 [206], TS 32.582 [207].

– Not supported: Not supported and no proposal to modify in this release:
Needs modifications but might/will not be changed in this release.

– Not required in this release: The network sharing scenarios and requirements in the present document do not require support in this release.

– Supported in this release:
Specification modified to support network sharing scenarios.

– Supported with no modification:
The specification supports network sharing scenarios with no modifications. Examples are generic NRM.
Even though this NRM is needed for supporting configuration management for a shared node, there is no change needed to the specification.

TBD: Evaluation in progress.

NOTE: Table B.2-1 is a skeleton and will be populated as the network sharing work is progressing.

The intention of table B.2-1 is to cover all the 3GPP Technical Specifications (TS) with an evaluation remark on support for network sharing. If a TS does not appear in the table, it implies that the TS has not been evaluated for impact to support network sharing.
