4 Overview p. 20
4.1 Introduction p. 20
Within the 5GC, the AMF offers services to the SMF, other AMF, PCF, SMSF, LMF, GMLC, CBCF, PWS-IWF, NWDAF, DCCF, NEF, TSCTSF and MB-SMF via the Namf service based interface (see TS 23.501, TS 23.502, TS 23.041, TS 23.288 and TS 23.247).
Figure 4.1-1 provides the reference model (in service based interface representation and in reference point representation), with focus on the AMF and the scope of the present specification.
The functionalities supported by the AMF are listed in clause 6.2.1 of TS 23.501.
