1 Scope
The present document defines a transport protocol for use in the IP multimedia (IM) Core Network (CN) subsystem
based on the Diameter base protocol as specified in IETF RFC 6733 [15].
The present document is applicable to:
- The Sh interface between an AS and the HSS.
- The Sh interface between an SCS and the HSS.
Whenever it is possible this document specifies the requirements for this protocol by reference to specifications
produced by the IETF within the scope of Diameter base protocol as specified in IETF RFC 6733 [15]. Where this is
not possible, extensions to the Diameter base protocol as specified in IETF RFC 6733 [15] are defined within this
document.
2 References

document.
- References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) or
non-specific.
- For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply.
- For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies. In the case of a reference to a 3GPP document (including
a GSM document), a non-specific reference implicitly refers to the latest version of that document in the same

4 General
he Diameter base protocol as specified in IETF RFC 6733 [15] shall apply except as modified by the defined support of
the methods and the defined support of the commands and AVPs, result and event codes specified in clause 6 of this
specification. Unless otherwise specified, the procedures (including error handling and unrecognised information
handling) are unmodified.
5 Use of the Diameter base protocol
The same clarifications of clause 5 of 3GPP TS 29.229 [6] shall apply to the Sh interface. An exception is that the
application identifier for this application is defined in chapter 6.
6 Diameter application for Sh interface
This clause specifies a Diameter application that allows a Diameter server and a Diameter client:
- to download and update transparent and non-transparent user data
- to request and send notifications on changes on user data
ETSI

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
3GPP TS 29.329 version 14.4.0 Release 14 8 ETSI TS 129 329 V14.4.0 (2019-10)
The Sh interface protocol is defined as an IETF vendor specific Diameter application, where the vendor is 3GPP. The
vendor identifier assigned by IANA to 3GPP ( http://www.iana.org/assignments/enterprise-numbers) is 10415.
The Diameter application identifier assigned to the Sh interface application is 16777217 (allocated by IANA).
6.1 Command-Code values
This clause defines Command-Code values for this Diameter application.
Every command is defined by means of the ABNF syntax (as defined in RFC 2234 [5]), according to the Command
Code Format (CCF) specification defined in IETF RFC 6733 [15]. Whenever the definition and use of an AVP is not
specified in this document, what is stated in 3GPP TS 29.229 [6] shall apply.
NOTE: As the Diameter commands described in this specification have been defined based on the former
specification of the Diameter base protocol, the Vendor-Specific-Application-Id AVP is still listed as a
required AVP (an AVP indicated as {AVP}) in the command code format specifications defined in this
specification to avoid backward compatibility issues, even if the use of this AVP has been deprecated in
the new specification of the Diameter base protocol (IETF RFC 6733 [15]).
The command codes for the Sh interface application are taken from the range allocated by IANA in IETF RFC 3589 [7]
as assigned in this specification. For these commands, the Application-ID field shall be set to 16777217 (application
identifier of the Sh interface application, allocated by IANA).
The following Command Codes are defined in this specification:
Table 6.1.1: Command-Code values
Command-Name Abbreviation Code Clause
User-Data-Request UDR 306 6.1.1
User-Data-Answer UDA 306 6.1.2

6.1.1 User-Data-Request (UDR) Command
The User-Data-Request (UDR) command, indicated by the Command-Code field set to 306 and the 'R' bit set in the
Command Flags field, is sent by a Diameter client to a Diameter server in order to request user data.

NOTE: More than one Data-Reference AVP may be present in the message only if both the AS and the HSS
support the Update-Eff-Enhance feature. How the AS knows whether the HSS supports the Update-Eff-
Enhance feature is implementation issue, e.g. the AS can get the information from a previous PUA
message.
