Hi,
Plz any one can help me to understand the following:
In our 3G network (I guess it’s the same case for others) the Iu (CS & PS) connection between the RNC and the CN (SGSN, GGSN, MSC, MGW) is base the IP, my concern is from both sides (RNC & CN), we have a set of IP addresses for each service, how the RNC or CN (PS or CS) decides which IP address to use:
Exp IuPS UP
RNC side have 4 IP addresses (loopback /32) dedicated to IuPS UP
SGSN side uses 6 IP addresses (loopback /32) for IuPS UP
My question is, when the RNC want to send data to SGSN, how it will choose which one IP to use from the group of IPs, same thing for the SGSN
