9.11.3.5 5GS network feature support

Taught in 4. Inside TS 24.501, the document at the centre (CT1 — the group that writes what your phone says, overview).

The purpose of the 5GS network feature support information element is to indicate whether certain features are supported by the network.

The 5GS network feature support information element is coded as shown in figure 9.11.3.5.1 and table 9.11.3.5.1.

The 5GS network feature support is a type 4 information element with a minimum length of 3 octets and a maximum length of 6 octets.

If:

  • the length of 5GS network feature support contents field is set to one, then the UE shall interpret this as a receipt of an information element with all bits of octet 4, octet 5 and octet 6 coded as zero.
  • the length of 5GS network feature support contents field is set to two, the UE shall interpret this as a receipt of an information element with all bits of octet 5 and octet 6 coded as zero.
  • the length of 5GS network feature support contents field is set to three, the UE shall interpret this as a receipt of an information element with all bits of octet 6 coded as zero.
