S1AP Protocol Cause

The purpose of the Cause IE is to indicate the reason for a particular event for the S1AP protocol.

The meaning of the different cause values is described in the following table. In general, “not supported” cause values indicate that the related capability is missing. On the other hand, “not available” cause values indicate that the related capability is present, but insufficient resources were available to perform the requested action.

S1AP Elementary Procedure

Definition:

S1AP consists of Elementary Procedures (EPs). An Elementary Procedure is a unit of interaction between eNBs and the EPC. These Elementary Procedures are defined separately and are intended to be used to build up complete sequences in a flexible manner. If the independence between some EPs is restricted, it is described under the relevant EP description. Unless otherwise stated by the restrictions, the EPs may be invoked independently of each other as standalone procedures, which can be active in parallel. The usage of several S1AP EPs together or together with EPs from other interfaces is specified in stage 2 specifications (e.g., TS 23.401 [11] and TS 36.300 [14]).

Diameter Result Code

Diameter Result-Code AVP (AVP Code 268) menunjukkan apakah request tertentu berhasil atau terjadi kesalahan/error. Semua Diameter answer messages dalam Diameter spesifikasi aplikasi IETF-defined HARUS menyertakan satu Result-Code AVP.

Berikut pengelompokan Diameter Result Code:

• 1xxx (Informational)
• 2xxx (Success)
• 3xxx (Protocol Errors)
• 4xxx (Transient Failures)
• 5xxx (Permanent Failure)

IMEI ( International Mobile Station Equipment Identity )

International Mobile Station Equipment Identity atau IMEI adalah identitas unik mobile equipment / handphone (HP) yang berupa deretan angka. Biasanya tercetak di tempat baterai HP namun bisa juga dicek dengan mengetikkan *#06# dan tekan call.

  

GPRS Session Management Cause Codes

Cause code berikut ada saat prosess Session Management (SM) antara MS/UE dengan SGSN. SM terjadi saat prosedur PDP context activation dan PDP context deactivation.

 SM berada di layer paling atas control plane untuk Gb dan Iu, seperti gambar berikut:

Control Plane MS - SGSN in A/Gb mode

Control Plane MS - SGSN in Iu mode

GTP Cause Codes

Dalam GTP request, cause value menunjukkan alasan request tersebut. Cause value tersebut akan dimasukkan dalam GTP request message.

Dalam GTP response, cause value menunjukkan acceptence / rejection dari request yang terkait. Selain itu cause value dapat menunjukkan penyebab tertentu untuk request yang terkait. Cause value tersebut akan dimasukkan dalam GTP response message.
