The procedure for retrieve functional alias configurations from the functional alias management server is described in
Figure 10.1.7.1-1. This procedure can be used following service authorisation when the configuration management client has received the list of functional aliases and the functional alias management client needs to obtain the functional alias configurations, or following a notification from the functional alias management server that new functional alias configuration information or functional alias configuration update is available. This procedure can be also used by the MC service server under authorization to obtain the functional alias configurations (e.g. upon functional alias activation or call processing).
Pre-conditions:
-
The functional alias management server has received configuration data for functional aliases, and has stored this configuration data;
-
The MC service UE has registered for service and the functional alias management client needs to download functional alias configuration data applicable to the current user.
Step 1.
The functional alias management client or the MC service server requests the functional alias configuration data.
Step 2.
The functional alias management server provides the functional alias configuration data to the client or MC service server.
Step 3.
The functional alias management client or MC service server stores the functional alias configuration information.
The procedure for subscription for functional alias configuration data as described in
Figure 10.1.7.2-1 is used by the functional alias management client to indicate to the functional alias management server that it wishes to receive updates of functional alias configuration data for functional aliases for which it is authorized. This procedure can be also used by the MC service server under authorization to obtain the functional alias configurations and the updates (e.g. upon functional alias activation or call processing).
Pre-conditions:
-
The functional alias management server has some functional alias configurations stored.
Step 1.
The functional alias management client or MC service server subscribes to the functional alias configuration information stored at the functional alias management server using the subscribe functional alias configuration request.
Step 2.
The functional alias management server provides a subscribe functional alias configuration response to the functional alias management client or MC service server indicating success or failure of the request.
The procedure for notification of functional alias configuration data as described in
Figure 10.1.7.2-1 is used by the functional alias management server to inform the functional alias management client or MC service server that new functional alias configuration data is available.
Pre-conditions:
-
The functional alias management client has subscribed to the functional alias configuration information
-
The functional alias management server has received and stored new functional alias configuration information.
Step 1.
The functional alias management server provides the notification to the functional alias management client or MC service server, who previously subscribed for the functional alias configuration information.
Step 2.
The functional alias management client or MC service server provides a notify functional alias configuration response to the functional alias management server.
If the functional alias management server has notified the functional alias management client about new functional alias configuration information through this procedure, the functional alias management client may then follow the procedure described in
subclause 10.1.7.1 in order to retrieve that functional alias configuration information.
