Content for TS 24.302 Word version: 18.0.0
1 Scope p. 13
The present document specifies the discovery and network selection procedures for access to 3GPP Evolved Packet Core (EPC) via non-3GPP access networks and includes Authentication and Access Authorization using Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) procedures used for the interworking of the 3GPP EPC and the non-3GPP access networks.
The present document also specifies the Tunnel management procedures used for establishing an end-to-end tunnel from the UE to the ePDG to the point of obtaining IP connectivity and includes the selection of the IP mobility mode.
The non-3GPP access networks considered in this present document are cdma2000® HRPD and Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), and any access technologies covered in TS 23.402. The present document also specifies UE access to PLMN IP-based services via restrictive non-3GPP access networks covered in TS 33.402. These non-3GPP access networks can be trusted or untrusted access networks.
The present document is applicable to the UE and the network. In this technical specification the network is the 3GPP EPC.

3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations p. 16
3.1 Definitions p. 16
For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in TR 21.905 and the following apply. A term defined in the present document takes precedence over the definition of the same term, if any, in TR 21.905.
Access Network Discovery and Selection Function:
In this specification, Access Network Discovery and Selection Function (ANDSF) is a network element specified in TS 23.402. Unless otherwise specified, the term ANDSF is used to refer to both Home and Visited ANDSF.
ANDSF rules:
In this specification, ANDSF rules refers to the set of ANDSF policies defined in TS 24.312 for WLAN access selection and traffic routing between E-UTRAN or UTRAN and WLAN. ANDSF rules can contain RAN validity conditions for RAN-assisted WLAN interworking.
Emergency session:
In this specification, an emergency session refers to an emergency PDN connection established in E-UTRAN and handed over to a S2a based cdma2000® HRPD access network, or an emergency PDN connection established over trusted or untrusted WLAN access, or an emergency PDN connection established in 3GPP access and handed over to trusted or untrusted WLAN access.
Equivalent home service provider:
In this specification, equivalent home service provider is a service provider that is equivalent to HPLMN in regard to service provider selection over WLAN.
Equivalent visited service provider:
In this specification, equivalent visited service provider is a service provider that is equivalent to the V-PLMN in regard to service provider selection over WLAN.
Home ANDSF:
In this specification, the Home ANDSF (H-ANDSF) is an ANDSF element located in the home PLMN of a UE.
Offload Preference Indicator (OPI):
In this specification, Offload Preference Indicator (OPI) is a bitmap (i.e. a one-dimensional bit array) that can be used by UEs in an E-UTRA or UTRA cell to determine when to move certain traffic (e.g. certain IP flows) to WLAN access or to 3GPP access. The meaning of each bit in this bitmap is operator specific and is not defined in 3GPP specifications.
Offloadable PDN connection:
In this specification, an offloadable PDN connection is a PDN connection, established in (or previously handed over to) 3GPP access, such that:
- the WLAN offload indication information element (see TS 24.301 and TS 24.008) last received for the PDN connection has the "offloading the traffic of the PDN connection via a WLAN when in S1 mode is acceptable" value and the UE is in S1 mode; or
- the WLAN offload indication information element (see TS 24.301 and TS 24.008) last received for the PDN connection has the "offloading the traffic of the PDN connection via a WLAN when in UTRAN Iu mode is acceptable" value and the UE is in UTRAN Iu mode.
In this specification, the Preferred Service Providers List refers to a prioritized list of service provider realms other than equivalent home service providers preferred by the UE's 3GPP home operator for WLAN.
Set of Access network discovery information:
In this specification, a set of Access network discovery information is the access network discovery information from a single ANDSF.
Set of Inter-system mobility policy:
In this specification, a set of Inter-system mobility policy is the inter-system policy information received from a single ANDSF.
Visited ANDSF:
In this specification, the Visited ANDSF (V-ANDSF) is an ANDSF element located in the visited PLMN of a UE.
RAN Assistance Information:
In this specification, RAN Assistance Information refers to the set of thresholds and parameters that can be provided by E-UTRAN or UTRAN to the UE for assisting WLAN access selection and traffic routing. The RAN assistance information can include 3GPP access thresholds, WLAN access thresholds, an Offload Preference Indicator (OPI) value and WLAN identifiers as defined in TS 25.331 and TS 36.331.
RAN rules:
In this specification, RAN rules refers to the set of RAN assistance parameter and RAN steering command handling, access network selection and traffic steering procedures defined in TS 36.304, TS 25.304 and TS 36.331 for the steering of traffic between E-UTRAN or UTRAN and WLAN associated with RAN-controlled LTE-WLAN interworking or RAN-assisted WLAN interworking.
Restrictive non-3GPP access network type I:
a non-3GPP access network forwarding IP packets of TCP connections initiated by a served UE, with destination port 443, and with destination address outside of the non-3GPP access network, and discarding IP packets of some or all other TCP connections initiated by the served UE, with destination address outside of the non-3GPP access network.
Restrictive non-3GPP access network type II:
a non-3GPP access network discarding IP packets of TCP connections initiated by a served UE, with destination address outside of the non-3GPP access network, where the non-3GPP access network contains HTTP proxy supporting HTTP CONNECT method for URIs with port 443 and with host outside of the non-3GPP access network.
Restrictive non-3GPP access network:
restrictive non-3GPP access network type I or restrictive non-3GPP access network type II.
Firewall traversal tunnel (FTT):
a TCP connection with TLS connection enabling passing of messages between UE in restrictive non-3GPP access network and ePDG.
Firewall traversal tunnel keep-alive time (FTT KAT):
a maximum time between two subsequent messages sent by UE in the firewall traversal tunnel.
Unauthenticated IMSI:
In this specification, the term "unauthenticated IMSI" or the term "IMSI is unauthenticated" is only pertinent to the network. The knowledge that a UE's IMSI is unauthenticated or that the UE has an unauthenticated IMSI, is not available to the UE.
WLAN Selection Policy (WLANSP):
In this specification, the WLAN Selection Policy is a set of operator-defined rules that determine how the UE selects/reselects a WLAN access network.
WLAN selection information:
In this specification, WLAN selection information refers to the information received from ANDSF including WLAN Selection Policy (WLANSP), rule selection information, Home Network Preference information and Visited Network Preference information as specified in TS 24.312.
Visited PLMNs with preferred rules:
In this specification, visited PLMNs with preferred rules included in the rule selection information refers to a list of identifiers of visited PLMNs provided by HPLMN, so that the UE roaming in such visited PLMN prefers ISMP, ISRP or WLANSP rules provided by the visited PLMN over ISMP, ISRP or WLANSP rules provided the HPLMN. In ANDSF MO, the visited PLMNs with preferred rules correspond to the ANDSF/RuleSelectionInformation/VPLMNswithPreferredRules interior node.
