The contents of the present doc
17、ument are subject to continuing work within the TSG and may change following formal TSG approval. Should the TSG modify the contents of the present document, it will be re-released by the TSG with an identifying change of release date and an increase in version number as follows: Version x.y.z where
18、: x the first digit: 1 presented to TSG for information; 2 presented to TSG for approval; 3 or greater indicates TSG approved document under change control. y the second digit is incremented for all changes of substance, i.e. technical enhancements, corrections, updates, etc. z the third digit is in

ETSI ETSI TS 136 458 V13.0.0 (2016-01)53GPP TS 36.458 version 13.0.0 Release 131 Scope The present document specifies the standards for signalling transport to be used across the SLm interface. The SLm interface is a logic
20、al interface between the LMU and the E-SMLC in the E-UTRAN core network. The present document describes how the SLmAP signalling messages are transported over SLm. 2 References The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present docu
21、ment. References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) or non-specific. For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply. For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies. In the case of a reference to a 3GPP document (includ
22、ing a GSM document), a non-specific reference implicitly refers to the latest version of that document in the same Release as the present document. 1 3GPP TR 21.905: “Vocabulary for 3GPP Specifications“. 2 IETF RFC 2460 (1998-12): “Internet Protocol, Version 6 (IPv6) Specification“. 3 IETF RFC 791(1

24、ent, the terms and definitions given in TR 21.905 1 and the following apply. A term defined in the present document takes precedence over the definition of the same term, if any, in TR 21.905 1. SLm: interface between an LMU and an E-SMLC, providing an interconnection point between the LMU and the E
25、-SMLC. It is also considered as a reference point. SLmAP: Reference point for the application protocol between LMU and E-SMLC. 3.2 Abbreviations For the purposes of the present document, the following abbreviations apply.

27、unctions and protocol stack SLm signalling bearer provides the following functions: - Provision of reliable transfer of SLmAP message over SLm interface. - Provision of networking and routeing function - Provision of redundancy in the signalling network - Support for flow control and congestion cont
28、rol The protocol stack for SLm signalling bearer is shown in figure 4.1 and details on each protocol are described in the following clauses. Figure 4.1: SLm signalling bearer protocol stack The transport network layer is based on IP transport, comprising SCTP on top of IP. 5 Data link layer The supp
29、ort of any suitable data link layer protocol, e.g. PPP, Ethernet, etc. , shall not be prevented. 6 IP layer The LMU and E-SMLC shall support IPv6 (IETF RFC 2460 2) and/or IPv4 (IETF RFC 791 3). The IP layer of SLmAP only supports point-to-point transmission for delivering SLmAP messages. The LMU and
30、 E-SMLC shall support the Diffserv Code Point marking as described in IETF RFC 2474 4. 7 Transport layer SCTP (IETF RFC 4960 5) shall be supported as the transport layer of SLmAP signalling bearer. The Payload Protocol Identifier assigned by IANA to be used by SCTP for the application layer protocol
31、 SLmAP is TBD. SCTP refers to the Stream Control Transmission Protocol developed by the Sigtran working group of the IETF for the purpose of transporting various signalling protocols over IP network. ETSI ETSI TS 136 458 V13.0.0 (2016-01)73GPP TS 36.458 version 13.0.0 Release 13There shall be only o
32、ne SCTP association established between one E-SMLC and LMU pair. The LMU shall establish the SCTP association. The SCTP Destination Port number value assigned by IANA to be used for SLmAP is TBD. Within the SCTP association established between one E-SMLC and LMU pair: - a single pair of stream ident
33、ifiers shall be reserved for the sole use of SLmAP elementary procedures that utilize non UE-associated signalling. - At least one pair of stream identifiers shall be reserved for the sole use of SLmAP elementary procedures that utilize UE-associated signalling. However, a few pairs (i.e. more than
34、one) should be reserved. - A single UE-associated signalling shall use one SCTP stream and the stream should not be changed during the communication of the UE-associated signalling. Transport network redundancy may be achieved by SCTP multi-homing between two end-points, of which one or both is assi
35、gned with multiple IP addresses. SCTP end-points shall support a multi-homed remote SCTP end-point. For SCTP endpoint redundancy an INIT may be sent from E-SMLC, at any time for an already established SCTP association, which shall be handled as defined in IETF RFC 4960 5 in subclause 5.2. The SCTP c
36、ongestion control may, using an implementation specific mechanism, initiate higher layer protocols to reduce the signalling traffic at the source and prioritise certain messages.
