Introduction
The IP Multimedia core network Subsystem (IMS) consists of multiple functional entities and interfaces. The goal of
this work is to provide the conformance tests for Anonymous Communication Rejection (ACR) and Communication
Barring (CB) using IP Multimedia (IM) Core Network (CN) subsystem that are based on SIP messages. Test purposes
defined in the present document have been developed based on the requirements stated in the 3GPP IMS Release 12.

4.1 Configuration
4.1.0 Introduction
The scope of the present document is to test the signalling and procedural aspects of the stage 3 requirements as
described in ETSI TS 124 611 [1]. The stage 3 description describes the requirements for several network entities and
also the requirements regarding for terminal devices. Therefore, several interfaces (reference points) are addressed to
satisfy the test of the different entities.
Therefore, to test the appropriate entities the configurations below are applicable.
4.1.1 Testing of the AS
The AS entity is responsible for performing and managing the services. The ISC interface is the appropriate access
point for testing as indicated in figure 1.

Figure 1: Applicable interface to test AS functionalities
If the ISC interface is not accessible it is also possible to perform the test of the AS using any NNI (Mw, Mg, Mx)
interface (see figure 2). In case only the Gm interface is accessible this interface can be used instead for testing, but the
verification of all requirements may not be possible.

Figure 2: Applicable interfaces for tests using a (generic) NNI interface
4.1.2 Testing of the UE
There are special clauses in the protocol standard describing the procedures that apply at the originating and terminating
user equipment. Therefore, the test configuration in figure 3 has been chosen.

5 Test Purposes (TP)
5.1 Introduction
5.1.1 TP naming convention
TPs are numbered, starting at 001, within each group. Groups are organized according to the TSS. Additional references
are added to identify the actual test suite and whether it applies to the network or the user (see table 1).
Table 1: TP identifier naming convention scheme
Identifier: __
= supplementary service: e.g. "ACR-CB"
= type of IUT: U User – equipment
N Network
= group 2 digit field representing group reference according to TSS
= sequential number (001-999)

9 ETSI TS 186 017-2 V6.1.1 (2018-07)
5.1.2 Test strategy
As the base standard ETSI TS 124 611 [1] contains no explicit requirements for testing, the TPs were generated as a
result of an analysis of the base standard and the PICS specification ETSI TS 186 017-1 [2]. The criteria applied include
the following:
• whether or not a test case can be built from the TP is not considered.

Ensure that an outgoing communication is rejected when the evaluation of the called number matches in one of the
served user's outgoing communication barring rules (Black list).
Ensure that the SUT is sending a 603 (Decline) final response when the communication is rejected.
The service configuration takes place over the Ut interface using XCAP.
