There are two types of activation, management based activation and signalling based activation.
Figure 4.2.1 represents the high-level view of the architecture of Trace Management Based Activation/Deactivation.
Figure 4.2.1 is only showing the interfaces in principle a high-level view. Details of Trace activation/deactivation are defined in TS 32.422.
Figure 4.2.2 represents the high-level view of the architecture of Signalling Based Activation/Deactivation (non-shared scenario). Figure 4.2.2 is only showing the interfaces in principle. Details of Trace activation/deactivation are defined in TS 32.422.
Figure 4.2.3 represents the high-level view of the architecture of Trace Reporting (non-shared scenario). Figure 4.2.3 is only showing the interfaces in principle.
Figure 4.2.4 represents the high-level view of the architecture of Trace Reporting within the context of the Services Based Management Architecture (see TS 28.533) illustrating the relationship between Network Element as "trace data reporting MnS" producer, Management Function as both producer and consumer of this MnS and data consumer (TCE) as consumer of this MnS.
