The configuration management client sends a get VAL UE configuration request to the configuration management server for obtaining VAL UE configuration data.
The configuration management server sends get VAL UE configuration response to the configuration management client. This message carries the VAL UE configuration data.
The procedure for the VAL user or VAL server obtaining VAL user profiles in the primary VAL system of that VAL user is illustrated in Figure 11.3.4.2.1-1.
Pre-conditions:
The VAL user has performed user authentication in the identity management server.
The VAL UE or VAL server has secure access to the configuration management server.
The configuration management client or VAL server sends a get VAL user profile request message to the configuration management server, which includes the VAL user ID or VAL UE ID.
The configuration management server sends get VAL user profile response message to the configuration management client or VAL server. When a download is necessary, this message includes all VAL user profiles that are associated with the VAL user ID or VAL UE ID.
Figure 11.3.4.2.2-1 below illustrates mechanism for the configuration management client to retrieve the VAL user profile for the migrating VAL user from the partner VAL system.
Preconditions
The VAL user is permitted to migrate to the partner VAL system, and the relevant authorizations are configured in both the primary and partner VAL systems of that VAL user
The VAL user has performed VAL user authentication in the partner VAL system, and has received the necessary credentials to retrieve configuration information and to request service authorization.
The VAL UE has been provided with addressing information to allow the configuration management client in the VAL UE to access the configuration management server in the partner VAL system.
The configuration management client in the VAL UE of the migrating VAL user requests the VAL user profile for migration from the configuration management server in the partner VAL system.
The configuration management server in the partner VAL system requests the VAL user profile from the configuration management server in the primary VAL system of the VAL user.
The configuration management server in the primary VAL system of the VAL user retrieves the VAL user profile from the VAL user database in that primary VAL system. The identification of the partner VAL system to which the VAL user is attempting to migrate is used to determine which VAL user profile is retrieved for that VAL user for migration to that partner VAL system.
The configuration management server in the primary VAL system provides the VAL user profile to the configuration management server in the partner VAL system of the VAL user, optionally requesting validation of the modified VAL user profile.
The partner VAL system of the VAL user modifies the VAL user profile according to local configuration information and stores the modified VAL user profile in the VAL user database in the partner VAL system.
If the primary VAL system requested validation of the VAL user profile in step 4, the configuration management server in the partner VAL system of the migrating VAL user may send the modified VAL user profile to the configuration management server of the primary VAL system of the VAL user to allow the primary VAL system of the VAL user to validate the modified VAL user profile.
The configuration management server in the partner VAL system provides the VAL user profile to the configuration management client of the migrating VAL user,
The procedure for VAL user obtaining updated VAL user profile data that is initiated by the network is illustrated in Figure 11.3.4.3-1.
Pre-conditions:
The VAL user has performed user authentication in identity management server.
The VAL UE has secure access to the configuration management server.
The VAL UE has already obtained one or more VAL user profiles.
The configuration management server has access to the VAL user profile(s) associated with the VAL user ID of the VAL user or VAL UE ID.
The configuration management client sends get updated VAL user profile data request to the configuration management server, which includes the VAL user ID or VAL UE ID.
The configuration management server sends get updated VAL user profile data response to the configuration management client which includes the updated VAL user profile data requested in step 3.
The configuration management client is triggered (e.g. by user interaction operation) to update the VAL user profile data on the configuration management server.
The configuration management client sends update VAL user profile data request to the configuration management server, which includes the VAL user profile data to be updated.
The configuration management server sends update VAL user profile data response to the configuration management client to confirm the VAL user profile data update is complete.
Configuration management client or VAL server sends an updated user profile subscription request to the configuration management server to subscribe any updates to user profile of one or more VAL users or VAL UEs.
The configuration management server shall check if the configuration management client or VAL server is authorized to initiate the updated user profile subscription request.
The configuration management server sends the updated user profile notification including the changes to user profile of one or more VAL users or VAL UEs to the configuration management client or VAL server.
The consumer (e.g. group management server) sends a get VAL service request to the configuration management server for obtaining VAL service data. The request includes a list of VAL UE IDs or VAL user IDs and/or a VAL service ID list as service data retrieval filters.
The configuration server retrieves the VAL service data for the requested VAL UEs or users or VAL services and sends get VAL service response to the consumer (e.g. group management server) with the discovered list of VAL service data.
