27.7 MS deleting forbidden PLMNs

3GPP51.010-1Mobile Station (MS) conformance specificationPart 1: Conformance specificationTS

27.7.1 Definition

In manual PLMN selection mode the MS allows location update attempts to all available PLMNs, including forbidden PLMNs (as indicated by the forbidden PLMN list on the SIM). As a result of a successful location update procedure onto a PLMN which is in the forbidden PLMN list, the forbidden PLMN list is automatically updated by the MS.

27.7.2 Conformance requirement

1. In manual PLMN selection mode the MS shall be able to perform a LOCATION UPDATE attempt to a PLMN which is in the forbidden PLMN list.

3GPP TS 02.11, subclause 3.2.2.2.

2. After receipt of LOCATION UPDATE ACCEPT the MS shall delete the forbidden PLMN from the forbidden PLMN list.

3GPP TS 02.11, subclause 3.2.2.4.

27.7.3 Test purpose

1) To verify that in automatic PLMN selection mode the MS does not attempt to access PLMNs stored in EFFPLMN on the SIM.

2) To verify that the MS is able to perform a LOCATION UPDATE on a forbidden PLMN in manual PLMN selection mode.

3) To verify that the MS after a successful LOCATION UPDATE deletes the PLMN in the EFFPLMN on the SIM.

27.7.4 Method of test

27.7.4.1 Initial conditions

The SS transmits on the BCCH, with the following network parameters:

Attach/detach: disabled.

LAI-MCC: 234

LAI-MNC 01 or 012 (see Note 0)

LAI-LAC: 0001

Access control: unrestricted.

The default SIM is used with the following exception:

EFFPLMN (Forbidden PLMNs)

Logically: PLMN1: empty

PLMN2: empty

PLMN3: MCC: 234

MNC: 01 or 012 (See Note 0)

PLMN4: empty

The SIM is installed into the ME and the MS is set to automatic PLMN selection mode.

27.7.4.2 Procedure

a) The MS is powered on.

b) PLMN with MCC/MNC of 234/01 or 234/012 (see Note 0) is manually selected.

c) After receipt of a CHANNEL REQUEST from the MS, the SS sends IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT to the MS.

d) After receipt of a LOCATION UPDATE REQUEST from the MS, the SS sends LOCATION UPDATE ACCEPT with:

LAI-MCC: 234

LAI-MNC 01 or 012 (see Note 0)

TMSI: "12345678".

to the MS.

e) After receipt of TMSI REALLOCATION COMPLETE from the MS, the SS sends CHANNEL RELEASE.

f) The MS is soft powered down.

27.7.5 Test requirement

1) After step a) the MS shall not attempt a LOCATION UPDATE.

2) After step c) the MS shall send LOCATION UPDATE REQUEST to the SS.

3) After step d) the MS shall respond with TMSI REALLOCATION COMPLETE.

4) After step f) the SIM shall contain the following values:

EFLOCI (Location Information)

Logically: LAI-MCC: 234

LAI-MNC: 01 or 012 (See Note 0)

TMSI: "12345678"
