UGW Rules and PCRF
Rules apply to both PCC and non-PCC subscribers. In PCC scenarios, the rules consist of
local predefined rules and PCRF-delivered predefined rules.
UGW
Category-group
The service-property command is used to configure service properties. When you configure
the service-property command, a service can be bound to an APN. Among the services
configured by the UGW, the service IDs and priorities cannot be duplicate.
UGW
Category-property
Using the category-property command, you can configure a category property for matching
a bandwidth control policy. The bandwidth control function is performed according to the
bandwidth control policy corresponding to a specified category property, this is to associate
with filters in predefined rules for detecting and reporting application information.
Using the charge-property command, you can configure a charging property. A charging property specifies uplink
and downlink CBB IDs, which are used to charge uplink and downlink packets respectively.
This command is used to configure charging properties. Each charging property supports online charging, offline
charging, or hybrid charging.
Up to 10,001 charging properties can be configured on the entire UGW9811, including a global charging property.
Up to two uplink CBB IDs and up to two downlink CBB IDs for online or offline charging can be bound to a
charging property.
UGW
Action-property
Different actions can be taken for different services. The actions are configured with the action-list command. An action list
can be bound to an action property. If the packets that pass through the UGW match an action property, the uplink and
downlink packets are processed according to the configured action lists.

• It is located between the Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) and the
Policy and Charging Enforcement Function (PCEF).
• It is used for provisioning and removal of PCC rules from the PCRF to the
PCEF and the transmission of traffic plane events from the PCEF to the PCRF.
• It can be used for charging control, policy control or both by applying AVPs
relevant to the application.

PCC
PCC Rule
A PCC rule, which is called rule on the UPCC, is a set of parameters for
controlling service policies and charging policies. A PCC rule name must be
unique in an IP-CAN session. A PCC rule includes a rule name, quality of service
(QoS) parameters, charging parameters, charging identifier (RG/SID),
precedence, and service flow filter.

PCC Rule
Classification
A condition group consists of multiple conditions that have been configured with
object attributes. When you configure a rule, you need to
associate condition groups with the rule. When condition groups associated with
the rule are met, actions in the action group associated with the rule are
performed.
PCC
Condition Group
Purpose
An action group consists of multiple actions. The actions are logically divided
into different groups to facilitate management.
When an event defined by the trigger occurs, all the rules triggered by the event
are enforced according to their priorities. In this case, the UPCC sends
the actions contained in an action group under the dynamic rules to the PCEF.
Therefore, you must specify an action group when configuring a dynamic rule.

PCC
Object
An object and its attributes are used to define a condition or to assign values to a
condition or an action element. Therefore, you need to select an object when you
configure a condition group or an action group. If default object attributes cannot
meet the configuration requirements, you must add object attributes as required.
Unless otherwise specified, retain the default object attribute.
PCC
Trigger
A trigger defines the decision point of the UPCC. The UPCC determines the
subsequent action or the policy to be delivered based on the trigger.
When configuring policies, you can use the triggers defined in the dictionary.
The UPCC provides multiple default triggers. If default triggers cannot meet the
actual requirements, you can add new triggers
PCC
Action
(1) User equipment (Mobile Station) wishes to establish a data application (data access/internet), so it
requests to BTS/Node B.
(2) Node B forward its request to BSC/RNC.
(3) After all queries and procedure related to authentication, IMEI check & subscriber static
information(HLR), BSC/RNC forward subscriber request to SGSN. Some of the queries are performed by
SGSN.
(4) SGSN requests to GGSN for PDP context/data access.
(5) GGSN signals/query to PCRF (Policy & Charging Rule Function) about UE/MS data session
establishment over Gx interface.
(6) PCRF queries the Subscriber Profile Repository(SPR) for dynamic information of subscriber over Sp
interface.
(7) SPR sends all information about the subscriber policy/quota/rules to PCRF over Sp interface.
PCC
(8) PCRF installs policies for subscriber on GGSN (by PCEF) (per access point name[APN] and per bearer
quota grants).
(9) PCRF installs policies for application control on DPI and DPI begins tracking usage.
(10) Now data session is established and the subscriber starts consuming the data.
(11) Over Gy interface GGSN/PCEF talks to OCS (Online Charging System) for charging/credit.
(12) GGSN receives the information from OCS about balance/quota.
(13) GGSN signals policy server(PCRF) that device has exceeded data/quota grant or credit is low.
(14) Over Sy interface OCS also sends the credit limit report to PCRF.
