Activate PDP Context Control

Activate PDP Context Control

Last updated: April 27, 2013

This section is only applicable to the lab application.

You may configure the test set to ignore, reject or accept an Activate PDP Context Request from the UE. You can choose what value is sent in the SM Cause information element of the Activate PDP Context Reject message using the Activate PDP Context Reject SM Cause setting. Use this function in parallel with Protocol Logging to verify that the UE behaves in a manner conforming to the standards for this situation and for each associated SM Cause value.You can also specify the cause value that is sent in the SM Cause52 information element in the PDP Context Activation Accept Message using the Activate PDP Context Accept SM Cause 52 setting.

Activate PDP Context Reject SM Cause

When Activate PDP Context Reject State is On , you may specify what value is sent in the SM Cause information element using the Activate PDP Context Reject SM Cause setting. From the front panel, you may choose from the valid causes specified in 3GPP TS 24.008 10.5.6.6.

If you select Custom Value from the front panel, a value of 0 is sent to the UE.

The CALL:SERVice:GPRS:REJect:CAUSe command allows you to send any value between 0 and 255 to the UE, even those not mapped to a cause in the standard. If you send a value other than those listed in the above table via the GPIB command, the front panel setting displays CUSTOM .

Activate PDP Context Accept SM Cause 52

The setting specifies what value is sent in the SM Cause52 information element in the PDP Context Activation Accept Message. This setting is applicable when UE requested PDP Type is IPv4+IPv6 and DUT IP Version is set to IPv4 + IPv6, or when UE requested an additional primary PDP context's PDP Type is IPv4+IPv6 and DUT IP 2 Version is set to IPv4 + IPv6.

You can specify one of the following SM causes in the test set:
