Holger Hans Peter Freyther hfreyther at sysmocom.deHi, I got this log from the pcu while using my E71 (the only sub in this network). <0007> gprs_rlcmac_meas.cpp:103 UL RSSI of TLLI=0x88661bc6: -67 dBm <0002> bts.cpp:945 Got ACK, but UL TBF is gone TLLI=0xe512eba3 <0007> gprs_rlcmac_meas.cpp:158 DL packet loss of IMSI=274080000004765 / TLLI=0xe512eba3: 0% <0002> tbf.cpp:668 TBF TFI=0 TLLI=0x88661bc6 T3169 timeout during transsmission <0002> tbf.cpp:690 - Assignment was on PACCH <0002> tbf.cpp:694 - No uplink data received yet So there is an ACK for TLLI=0xe512eba3 but at the same time the tlli 0x88661bc6 is timing out. PCU->SGSN TLLI=0x88661bc6 Attach Request SGSN->PCU TLLI=0x88661bc6 Attach Accept (new P-TMSI) PCU->SGSN TLLI=0xe512eba3 Attach Complete (new TLLI) (6s later) Now the question is how the PCU should behave. I think the MS is allowed to change the TLLI (after a P-TMSI assignment) after the contention resolution is completed. From my reading there is no content resolution on the UL. My E71 appears to run into a timeout and then issue a RACH request to send the Attach Complete. I think I have seen other equipment failing to transmit the Attach Complete at all. I think for the SGSN -> PCU side we should generally look things up by IMSI (there is already a warning in the code), for the MS->PCU side. I think we should store the old and new TLLI (and then put new_tlli into tlli once the new one is being used). comments? holger -- - Holger Freyther <hfreyther at sysmocom.de> http://www.sysmocom.de/ ======================================================================= * sysmocom - systems for mobile communications GmbH * Schivelbeiner Str. 5 * 10439 Berlin, Germany * Sitz / Registered office: Berlin, HRB 134158 B * Geschaeftsfuehrer / Managing Directors: Holger Freyther, Harald Welte
