8.5.13 PIN activation and deactivation p. 80

8.5.13.1 General p. 80

The procedures in this clause describes how a PEMC can activate and deactivate the PIN. PEMC being an authorized entity to manage the PIN can request to activate and deactivate the PIN. When the PIN is in deactivated state, services offered by the PIN are inaccessible and no PIN elements can join the PIN. Also PEGC closes all the communication channel it has created for the flow of application traffic from PIN elements via 5GS to the application server.

The PEMC deactivates the PIN when the expiration time obtained at PIN creation is reached and the PIN validity duration from the PIN profile is not expired (e.g., the PIN may be activated again in the future). The PEMC deletes the PIN, according to the procedure specified in subclause 8.5.3.2, when the expiration time of the PIN obtained at PIN creation is reached and there is no PIN validity duration in the PIN profile.

8.5.13.2.1 PIN activation p. 80

Figure 8.5.13.2.1-1 illustrates a procedure for activating the PIN by PEMC.

Pre-conditions:

PEMC(PINE-3), PEGC, PINE-1 and PINE-2 all are part of same PIN
The PIN being activated has already been created earlier and is in the deactivated state.
The PINE-3 is authorized as PEMC of the PIN.
PIN server, PEGC and PIN elements has active PIN status subscription with PEMC

Figure 8.5.13.2.1-1: Activation of PIN by PEMC

Step 1.

PEMC (PINE-3), PEGC, PINE-1, PINE-2, PINE-3 all are part of same PIN, which is created earlier and is now in deactivated state. PEMC decides to activate the PIN and updates the PIN state in the dynamic profile information of the PIN. Decision by PEMC to activate the PIN could be because of the PIN validity duration or based on the request from PIN owner/admin or any other implementation specific reasons.

Step 2.

PEMC notifies PIN server and all PIN elements including the PEGC that the PIN state is activated now by sending the PIN status notify.

Step 3.

PIN server and PEGC updates the dynamic PIN information to change the PIN state to active and PIN validity duration.

8.5.13.2.2 PIN de-activation p. 81

Figure 8.5.13.2.2-1 illustrates a procedure for de-activating the PIN by PEMC.

Pre-conditions:

PEGC, PINE-1, PINE-2 and PINE-3 are part of same PIN, which is created earlier and is now in activated state.
The PINE-3 is authorized as PEMC.
PEMC (PINE-3) decides to de-activate the PIN.
PIN server, PEGC and PINE has active PIN status subscription with PEMC

Figure 8.5.13.2.2-1: Deactivation of PIN by PEMC

Step 1.

PEMC (PINE-3) decides to deactivate the PIN and updates the PIN state in the dynamic profile information of the PIN to de-activate. Decision reason by PEMC to deactivate the PIN could be PIN validity duration is expiring or all the PIN elements have left the PIN or on receiving the request from PIN owner/admin or for any other reasons which could be implementation specific.

Step 2.

PEMC notifies PIN server and all PIN elements including the PEGC that the PIN state is deactivated now by sending the PIN status notify.

Step 3.

On receiving the PIN status notify, the PIN server and PEGC updates the PIN state to de-activate in the dynamic profile information. PEGC closes all the PIN communication with 5GS which it has created for the flow of application traffic of the PIN elements it is serving.
