PDN GW address provided by the HSS in S6a-IDR

+1 vote
442 views

PDN connection is already established to a PDN-GW (PDN GW address was resolved by DNS resolution)
The HSS sends to the serving MME, S6a-IDR (Insert Subscriber Data) where the PGW-address (MIP6-Agent-info AVP) set to another IP-address is specified in the APN configuration.
Should the MME immediately tear down the existing PDN connection and re-establish a new connection with the PDN-GW present in the IDR message?

Based on the 3GPP 29.272, the IDR (Insert-Subscriber-data Request message) is generated by the HSS to the MME to update the subscriber profile in the MME and/or requesting subscriber info such as location-information, subscriber state...
However the SUBSCRIPTION-DATA AVP containing the of profile to be added or updated is defined as Mandatory.
What should contain this AVP if the IDR is sent only for requesting subscriber-info without updating the subscriber profile.
Should ot be present without any nested AVP under it?

In Diameter S6a specification (3GPP 29.272), it is indicated that the full procedure for Delete-Subscriber-Data from the HSS should be described in the 3GPP 23.401
However, I don't see any clear reference there.
Do you know where I can find it, especially for the deletion of one of the APN-configuration in the MME

It's just a general question, popped up when i was reading a document. For instance Suppose an APN configuration of an message say Update Location Request (ULR) is not present in HSS and MME has sent the message which has reached there in HSS. What will be the reaction of HSS?
