5.4.4b UE 5GSM Core Network Capability handling

Taught in 9. Registration, reachability and paging (The 5G system architecture, in depth), 10. Radio, Wi-Fi, cable — every way in (The 5G system architecture, in depth).

The UE 5GSM Core Network Capability is included in PDU Session Establishment/Modification Request.

The UE shall indicate in the UE 5GSM Core Network Capability whether the UE supports:

  • "Ethernet" PDU Session Type supported in EPC as PDN Type "Ethernet";
  • Reflective QoS;
  • Multi-homed IPv6 PDU Session (only if the Requested PDU Type was set to "IPv6" or "IPv4v6");
  • ATSSS capability (as referred to clause 5.32.2);
  • Transfer of Port Management Information containers;
  • Support for secondary DN authentication and authorization over EPC (as referred to clause 5.17.2.5);
  • (S)RTP Multiplexed Media Identification Information in IP Packet Filters.

The 5GSM Core Network Capability is transferred, if needed, from V-SMF to H-SMF during PDU Session Establishment/Modification procedure.

After the first inter-system change from EPS to 5GS for a PDU session established in EPS, the 5GSM Core Network Capability is also included in the PDU Session Modification if the Reflective QoS and/or Multi-homed IPv6 PDU Session is present.
