ITU-T Q.3314 (05/2012) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field o

11、f telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing

12、telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by

13、the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate bot

14、h a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when

15、all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by

17、 ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation.

23、rface) 1 Scope This Recommendation defines the protocol for the M9 interface between the mobile location management physical entity as proxy (MLM-PE(P) and the MLM-PE as the central instance (MLM-PE(C) specified in ITU-T Y.2018. The M9 reference point provides the information flows to register and u

24、pdate mobility location information in both host-based and network-based mobility cases specified in ITU-T Y.2018. In the network-based mobility case, the MLM-PE(P) sends the location registration and/or update request to the MLM-PE(C). In the host-based mobility case, the user equipment (UE) sends

25、the location registration and/or update request to the MLM-PE(P), which will forward it to the MLM-PE(C). The M9 reference point also provides the information flows for retrieving the binding location information regarding UEs reachability. The MLM-PE(P) holds the binding information between mobile

26、user ID (or persistent address) and temporary address (or lower tunnel end point address). The MLM-PE(C) holds the binding information between mobile user ID (or persistent address), and address of the MLM-PE(P). The MLM-PE(P) may identify the corresponding MLM-PE(C) by extracting the home domain fr

27、om the mobile user ID. The MLM-PE(P) may initiate route optimization through this interface. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

The M9 reference point provides the information flows to register and update mobility location information via the M9 interface specified in ITU-T Y.2018 in both th

41、e host-based and network-based mobility cases. The M9 reference point also provides the information flows for retrieving the binding location information regarding the UEs reachability. Therefore, two operations may occur at the M9 interface as follows: mobility location binding registration and/or

Figure 5-1 M9 reference model 5.3 Physical entities and capabilities 5.3.1 Mobile location management physical entity (MLM-PE) The MLM

43、-PE has the following responsibilities: in the case of network-based mobility, initiating location registration on behalf of the UE; processing location registration messages sent from, or on behalf of the UE; optionally, maintaining the binding between the mobility service user ID and persistent IP

44、 address assigned to the UE; MLM-PEHDC-PENID-PENIR-PEMMCF (P)M10M12M11NACFRACFMMCF (C)MLM-PEHDC-PENID-PENIR-PEM10M9M8M1TLM-PEPD-PEUEM3M12M114 Rec. ITU-T Q.3314 (05/2012) management of the binding between the persistent IP address assigned to the UE and its temporary IP address, in the case of host-b

45、ased mobility, or the address of the lower tunnel end point, in the case of network-based mobility; optionally, holding two location bindings for the mobile UE by marking the binding for the serving network as active state and marking the binding for target network as standby state; supporting separ

46、ation of control and data plane by allowing the MLM-PE address and data forwarding end point address (i.e., tunnel end point address) to be different; indication of a new mobility location binding and distribution of binding information to the HDC-PE. The MLM-PE has two roles, as proxy (MLM-PE(P) an

47、d as the central instance (MLM-PE(C). The MLM-PE(P) and MLM-PE(C) roles may be co-located in specific deployments providing only host-based mobility. The MLM-PE(C) provides a central point of contact for correspondent nodes (e.g., the service control function (SCF). The MLM-PE(P) and MLM-PE(C) toget

48、her provide hierarchical location management. The MLM-PE(P) holds and updates the binding between mobile user ID, persistent address, and temporary/lower tunnel end point address. The MLM-PE(C) holds the binding between mobile user ID, persistent address, and address of the MLM-PE(P). The MLM-PE(P)

49、may identify the corresponding MLM-PE(C) by extracting the home domain from the mobile user ID. The MLM-PE(P) consists of the following functions: In the host-based case, it provides the first point of contact for location registration for mobile users. As such, it appears as a proxy for the MLM-PE(C) from the point of view of the UE, while appearing as a proxy for the UE from the point of view of the MLM-PE(C). The mobile UE obtains the address of the MLM-PE(P) in the attachment proce
