Introduction
The present document defines how an Internet Protocol connection may be established between a UICC and a terminal
connected through a UICC-Terminal Interface able to carry Internet Protocol packets, and how the UICC resources
defined in ETSI TS 102 221 [11] may be accessed over this connection. Most telecommunication infrastructures rely on
the Internet Protocol and therefore telecommunication terminals commonly implement the IP layers as standardized by
the IETF RFC 791 [1] and by the new version in IETF RFC 2460 [7]. Connecting the UICC and the terminal at this
level is expected to bring the following advantages:
• Leverage on existing standardization efforts: Applicative protocols relying on IP, e.g. running over TCP or
UDP, have already been standardized for a wide variety of applications and may be used by UICC
applications.
• Minimize UICC-specific developments on the terminals; reuse what is already available on terminals rather
than forcing specific developments.
• Facilitate connectivity of the UICC with standard network elements such as remote servers, etc.
The present document focuses on the establishment and configuration of a generic IP connection between the UICC and
terminal, without addressing specific applications that may use this connection capability.

1 Scope
The present document specifies the establishment and configuration of an Internet Protocol connection between a UICC
and a terminal interfaced through a protocol that supports the transport of Internet Protocol packets.
The way the Internet Protocol packets (or similar packets such as ARP) are transported over the UICC-Terminal
interface is part of the UICC-Terminal interface specification and not within the scope of the present document. The
present document focuses on the configuration and establishment of the Internet Protocol connection between the UICC
and the terminal.
The Internet Protocol connectivity defined in the present document may be used by applications such as the Smartcard
Web Server [i.7].

4 Terminal-UICC IP configuration
4.0 General
This clause is an introduction to the various configurations and uses of the IP UICC. A UICC supporting IP will be
deployed with at least a local address. This address relates to a private network established between the UICC and the
terminal, independently from other networks to which the terminal may be connected.
The UICC shall be able to act as a combination of the following basic configurations:
• A TCP/IP or UDP/IP client of a server located on the terminal.
• A TCP/IP or UDP/IP server for a client located on the terminal.
• A TCP/
