G.6.2.2 Interception

33.1283GPPProtocol and procedures for Lawful Interception (LI)Release 18SecurityStage 3TS

G.6.2.2.1 IMS deployment

There are two deployment options for IMS for intercepting the service type of Messaging for SMS over IMS:

– Default.

– Alternate option.

It is expected that the CSP implements one of the two deployment options.

The conditions under which IRI-POI functions have to be provisioned are illustrated within the drawing and are further clarified in tables from G.6-3 to G.6-6.

G.6.2.2.2 LALS triggering

There are two deployment options for LALS triggering. It is expected that the CSP implements one of the two deployment options.

In LALS triggering option 1, the LTF present in the host NF that has the associated IRI-POI triggers the LI-LCS Client. In LALS triggering option 2, the LTF presents in the MDF2 triggers the LI-LCS Client.

G.6.2.2.3 Summary

Table G.6-2 provides the scope of NF domain that provides the IRI-POI/CC-POI/LTF functions for the service type of Messaging.

NOTE 1: Only for SMS over IMS not involving the emergency center.

NOTE 2: Only for SMS over IMS to emergency centers.

NOTE 3: The use of "n/a" in the above table implies that the LI function is not applicable to the NF for the indicated scenario.

NOTE 4: The LIPF is not aware of the above role played by the host NFs in providing the LI functions

NOTE 5: MDF2, MDF3 and LI-LCS Client which are also involved in providing the LI functions are not shown in the tables above.
