For the period 2002-2006, Study Group 1 is entrusted with the study of seven Questions in the field of telecommunication development strategies and policies. Study Group 2 is entrusted with the study of eleven Questions in the field of development and management of telecommunication services and networks. For this period, in order to respond as quickly as possible to the concerns of developing countries, instead of being approved during the WTDC, the output of each Question is published as and when it is ready.

  • F5 and the Growing Role of GTP for Traffic Shaping, Network Slicing, Iot, and Security
    OVERVIEW F5 and the Growing Role of GTP for Traffic Shaping, Network Slicing, IoT, and Security For years, F5 BIG-IP solutions have managed GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP) traffic. Now, in part due to EU regulations, GTP traffic growth is much higher than ever before. International trends show that mobile data is increasing, as is the demand for smart and secure GTP traffic handling. In this document, we will explain GTP, where it is typically used, and where BIG-IP solutions provide significant value. What is GTP? GTP is a group of IP-based communication protocols used to carry General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) within GSM, UMTS, and LTE networks. In 3GPP architectures, GTP and Proxy Mobile IPv6-based interfaces are specified on various interface points. GTP in GPRS (2.5G and 3G) Networks GTP is a set of three separate protocols: GTP Control (GTP-C), GTP User (GTP-U), and GTP Prime (GTP’). GTP-C is used within the GPRS core network for signaling between gateway GPRS support nodes (GGSN) and serving GPRS support nodes (SGSN), as demonstrated by the Gn interface on the diagram below. GTP-C allows the SGSN to activate and deactivate a user’s session, adjust quality- of-service parameters, or update sessions when subscribers arrive from another SGSN.

  • Security for the Core Network of Third Generation Mobile Systems
    Security for the core network of third generation mobile systems GUNTER HORN, DIRK KROSELBERG Siemens AG, Corporate Technology, D-81730 Muenchen, Germany STEFANPUTZ T-Mobil, P.O. Box 300463, D-53184 Bonn, Germany ROLAND SCHMITZ T-Nova Technology Centre, D-64307 Darmstadt, Germany Keywords: UMTS, MAP Security, Multimedia domain, SIP, IPSec, IKE, Key Management Abstract: This contribution gives a survey of the present standardisation activities by 3GPP (3'd Generation Partnership Project1) in the area of security for signalling in the core network of third generation mobile systems. We give an overview of the protocols that need to be secured, present the basic principles behind the overall security architecture and describe the key management and format of secured messages, as far as they have already been finalised. In particular, we address core network security aspects of the 3GPP multimedia domain. 1 3GPP was formed by regional standards organisations from Europe, Asia and North America to produce specifications for a third generation mobile system named UMTS which is designed to evolve from GSM core network. There is a competing effort known as 3GPP2 with partners from North America and Asia. The original version of this chapter was revised: The copyright line was incorrect. This has been corrected.

THREATS TO CORE NETWORK SECURITY FOR MOBILE RADIO NETWORKS The core network of mobile radio systems is the part of the network which is independent of the radio interface technology of the mobile terminal.
