SESSION MANAGEMENT IN
GPRS
GPRS attach
- User is registered in SGSN, after authentication
GPRS detach
- Disconnection of MS from GPRS network is called
GPRS detach
- It can be initiated by MS or by network(SGSN or
HLR)
Session Management
PDP type
PDP addressed assigned to MS
Address of GGSN that servers access point
to PDN
LOCATION MANAGEMENT
IN GPRS
Location Management
Mobile station can be in 1 of the 3 states
depending on traffic amount
Idle : MS is not using GPRS service
Ready : Performing GPRS Attach,
Mobility Management
Consists of two levels:
Micro mobility management :
