For clarity, the terms Offline Charging and Online 2 charging as applied to the IMS are defined here in clause 3. These definitions are the same as lis

10、ted in 2. 3 The IMS charging architecture details, requirements, definitions and principles are listed in 2 and therefore 4 are not repeated here. 5 In the present document the charging data triggers, message content and format are specified along with the 6 transport of these messages using the Dia

11、meter protocol. Details about charging message flows and the 7 definitions of the Diameter AVPs are also included in the present document.

30、 The IMS charging architecture, described in 2, specifies that for offline charging all communications between 32 the IMS network entities and the AAA are carried out on the Rf interface. On the other hand, for online 33 charging the Ro interface is used by the AS and MRFC towards the Event Charging

31、 Function and the ISC 34 interface is used between the S-CSCF and the Session Charging Function. The rules governing the selection of 35 the proper interfaces are described in the subclauses below. 36 4.1.1 Usage of Rf and Ro Interfaces 37 The AS and MRFC are able to distinguish whether to apply off

32、line or online charging, i.e. whether to send 38 charging information on the Rf interface to the AAA or on the Ro interface to the ECF (or to use both). The 39 decision of which interface to use is based on the information (AAA and/or ECF address) the AS/MRFC 40 receive in the SIP signaling and the

33、system configuration as provisioned by the operator. If the AS/MRFC only 41 receive the AAA address and do not receive an ECF address then they use only the Rf interface. If only the 42 ECF address was provided then they use only the Ro interface. In cases where both AAA and ECF addresses 43 are pro

34、vided it is possible to use both interfaces simultaneously. 44 However, operators may overrule the addresses received via the SIP signalling and use their own configured 45 rules instead. Operators may configure locally on the AS/MRFC an ECF and/or AAA address. The AAA 46 address may be locally conf

35、igured on all other IMS nodes. The choice of whether the IMS nodes use the 47 locally configured addresses or the addresses received by SIP signalling, and the decision on which interface(s) 48 to use, is left for operator configuration. 49 Copyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided

37、ived via SIP signaling or the locally configured AAA address. The S-3 CSCF supports online charging using the ISC interface, i.e. if the application server addressed over ISC is the 4 Session Charging Function of the OCS. 5 4.2 Diameter Protocol Basic Principles and Use 6 The present document define

38、s an IMS charging Diameter application, which utilizes the Diameter Base 7 Protocol 3. This application is used for both online and offline charging. The generic description of the 8 protocol is provided in the subclauses below while the portions of the protocol application associated with 9 offline

39、 and online charging are described in clauses 5 and 6, respectively. 10 4.2.1 Basic Principles 11 The IMS charging Diameter application is based on the following general principles: 12 The basic functionality of Diameter, as defined by the Diameter Base Protocol 3 is re-used in IMS. 13 For offline c

40、harging IMS network elements report accounting information to the Authentication, 14 Authorization, and Accounting Entity (AAA). The AAA uses this information to construct and format 15 AIRs. 16 For online charging, the AS and MRFC in the IMS network report credit control information to the 17 Event

41、 Charging Function (ECF). The ECF uses this information to support the event based charging 18 (content charging) function of the OCS. 19 4.2.2 Application Requirement for the Base Protocol 20 4.2.2.1 Offline Specific Base Protocol Requirements 21 In order to support the offline charging principles

42、described in the present document, the Diameter client and 22 server must implement at least the following Diameter options listed in 3: 23 To send/receive Abort-Session-Request. 24 To send/receive Abort-Session-Answer. 25 All other options of the Diameter Base Protocol are beyond the scope of the p

43、resent document. 26 A configurable timer is supported in the AAA to supervise the reception of the ACR Interim and/or ACR 27 Stop. An instance of the Timer is started at the beginning of the accounting session, reset on the receipt of 28 an ACR Interim and stopped at the reception of the ACR Stop. U

44、pon expiration of the timer, the AAA stops 29 the accounting session with the appropriate error indication. For Offline Charging, the client implements the 30 state machine described in 3. The server (AAA) implements the STATELESS ACCOUNTING state machine 31 as specified in 3, i.e. there is no order

45、 in which the server expects to receive the accounting information. 32 4.2.2.2 Online Specific Base Protocol Requirements 33 Specific support for online charging is not provided in this version of this specification. 34 4.2.2.3 Security Considerations 35 Diameter security is addressed in the base pr

46、otocol 3. Network security is specified in 4. 36 Copyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided by IHS under license with EIANot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-TIA-873-008 5 5 Offline Charging 1 5.1 Diameter Description on the Rf Interfaces

47、 2 5.1.1 Basic Principles 3 The offline charging functionality is based on the IMS network nodes reporting accounting information upon 4 reception of various SIP methods or ISUP messages, as most of the accounting relevant information is 5 contained in these messages. This reporting is achieved by s

48、ending Diameter Accounting-Requests (ACR) 6 Start, Interim, Stop and Event from the IMS nodes to the AAA. 7 The Diameter client uses ACR Start, Interim and Stop in procedures related to successful SIP sessions. It uses 8 ACR Events for unsuccessful SIP sessions and for session-unrelated procedures.

49、Further details are specified in 9 the tables below and in subclause 5.1.2. 10 It is operator configurable in the nodes for which SIP method or ISUP messages an Accounting-Request is sent, 11 with the exception that if accounting information is collected for sessions the ACR Start and ACR Stop 12 messages are mandatory according to the tables below.
