Step 13a.
When the bearer information is received the oMSC server requests the seizure of the network side bearer termination.
Step 13b.
After the network side bearer information is seized the oMSC server requests the seizure of the access side bearer termination.
During the seizure of the network side or the access side bearer termination the oMSC server will also request the oMGW to through-connect the bearer terminations so that the bearer will be backward through-connected.
Step 14.
The oMSC server determines whether LCLS is allowed in the core network based on the returned LCLS-Negotiation IE and if so the oMSC server includes the LCLS-Configuration IE in the ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message along with the GCR IE.
Step 15.
The oBSS returns the ASSIGNMENT COMPLETE message with the LCLS-BSS-Status IE indicating "call not possible to be locally switched".
Step 16.
When the access assignment is completed the oMSC server sends the Continuity (COT) message to the iMSC server.
Step 17.
The iMSC server transfers the COT message to the tMSC server.
Step 18.
The tMSC server requests the seizure of the access side bearer termination. If not requested during the seizure of network side bearer termination (in step 9) the tMSC server will also request the tMGW to through-connect the bearer terminations so that the bearer will be backward through-connected.
Step 19a.
If the tMSC server supports the optional
"intra-Network call detection" procedure it compares its own Network ID with the Network ID received within the Global Call Reference IE.
If the tMSC server supports the optional
"intra-BSS call detection" procedure it compares the BSS ID of the selected terminating BSS with the oBSS ID received within the Global Call Reference IE at this step. Since the oUE and the tUE belong to the same BSS the call continues the same way as for the basic LCLS establishment without this pre-check.
Step 19b.
The tMSC server performs the access bearer assignment and sends the ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message containing the GCR IE and the LCLS-Configuration IE if LCLS is permitted in the core network.
Step 20.
The oBSS/tBSS performs the GCR correlation. Since the GCR correlation has identified the call as an intra BSS call and LCLS is allowed in the BSS, the tBSS returns the ASSIGMENT COMPLETE message with the LCLS-BSS-Status IE indicating "Call not yet locally switched".
Step 20a.
Since the GCR correlation has identified the call as an intra BSS call and LCLS is allowed in the BSS, the oBSS signals the LCLS status change by sending the LCLS_NOTIFICATION message with the LCLS-BSS-Status IE set to "Call not yet locally switched".
Step 21.
The tUE reports alerting.
Step 22a, b.
The tMSC server returns the ACM message and requests the tMGW to provide a ring-back tone.
Step 23.
The iMSC server transfers the ACM message to the oMSC server.
Step 24.
The oMSC server reports alerting.
