Abstract
This document registers a set of IANA Diameter Command Codes to be
used in new vendor-specific Diameter applications defined for the
Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Evolved Packet System
(EPS). These new Diameter applications are defined for Mobile
Management Entity (MME)- and Serving GPRS (General Packet Radio
Service) Support Node (SGSN)-related interfaces in in the
architecture for the Evolved 3GPP Packet Switched Domain, which is
also known as the Evolved Packet System (EPS).

1. Introduction
The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is defining the
Evolved 3GPP Packet Switched Domain - also known as the Evolved
Packet System (EPS). As part of this architecture, the interfaces
based on the Diameter protocol [RFC3588] require the definition of
two new Diameter applications.
As defined in [TS29.272], the 3GPP S6a/S6d application (vendor-
specific application id: 16777251) enables the transfer of
subscriber-related data between the Mobile Management Entity (MME)
and the Home Subscriber Server (HSS) on the S6a interface and between
the Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) and the Home Subscriber Server
(HSS) on the S6d interface.
Also defined in [TS29.272], the 3GPP S13/S13' application (vendor-
specific application id: 16777252) enables the Mobile Equipment
Identity check procedure between the Mobile Management Entity (MME)
and the Equipment Identity Register (EIR) on the S13 interface and
between the Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) and the Equipment
Identity Register (EIR) on the S13' interface.
Both Diameter applications are defined under the 3GPP vendor-id
"10415". This document defines the assigned values of the command
codes used in these applications.
2. Terminology
The base Diameter specification (Section 1.3 of [RFC3588]) defines
most of the terminology used in this document. Additionally, the
terms and acronyms defined in [TS29.272] are used in this document.

3. Command Codes
The 3GPP S6a/S6d application described in Section 5 of [TS29.272]
requires the allocation of command code values for the following
command pairs:
o 3GPP-Update-Location-Request/Answer (ULR/ULA)
o 3GPP-Cancel-Location-Request/Answer (CLR/CLA)
o 3GPP-Authentication-Information-Request/ Answer (AIR/AIA)
o 3GPP-Insert-Subscriber-Data-Request/Answer (IDR/IDA)
o 3GPP-Delete-Subscriber-Data-Request/Answer (DSR/DSA)
o 3GPP-Purge-UE-Request/Answer (PUR/PUA)
o 3GPP-Reset-Request/Answer (RSR/RSA)
