Network Architecture
Toward UE YateUCN acts as a P-CSCF. UE uses SIP protocol to communicate with YateUCN.
Toward HSS YateUCN acts a a S-CSCF using Diameter Cx/Dx interface.
Functionalities
User authentication and registration
User registration starts with UE sending a SIP REGISTER request to P-CSCF.
YateUCN will identify the HSS related data (local node to use, peer connection …) based on UE’s private identity, require authentication vectors from HSS (using MAR command) and challenge the UE.
When UE will answer and it’s response validated YateUCN will notify the HSS about user registration using SAR command.
User profile is requested from HSS on first registration only (if requested it is returned in the response to SAR). If a tel URI is returned by the HSS in user profile YateUCN will store it as MSISDN to be used later (e.g. route voice calls to it).
User registration subscription
UEs may subscribe to registration status by sending a SIP SUBSCRIBE request.
YateUCN will create to subscription and notify the UE when registration status changes.
User registration termination by UE
UE request unregister by sending a SIP REGISTER request with expire time set to 0.
YateUCN will remove user registration data, and notify HSS using Diameter SAR command.
User registration termination by HSS
HSS may request user registration termination using Diameter RTR command.
YateUCN will remove user registration data and notify UE on registration termination (if there is a subscription to registration status).
User profile update by HSS
HSS may request user profile update by using Diameter PPR command.
YateUCN will update stored data from user profile.
Voice calls
