Release

The release-s1-s11-on-timer-expiry-upon-clr CLI configuration allows MME to wait for the resource release timeout to expire.

21.25.12

Feature Changes

Previous Behavior: During Evolved Packet System (EPS) to 5GS Mobility registration (TAU), when the MME receives the Cancel Location Request (CLR), S1 and S11 resources are released instantly.

New Behavior: During EPS to 5GS Mobility registration (TAU), when you configure the release-s1-s11-on-timer-expiry-upon-clr CLI, and when MME receives CLR with MME UPDATE PROCEDURE, then MME waits for the ho-resource-release-timeout to expire and releases S1 and S11 resources. If it is not configured, and when MME receives CLR with MME UPDATE PROCEDURE, then MME instantly releases S1 and S11 resources.


Note

The changes are applicable only to N26 and have no impact on S10.
