Foreword
rd
This Technical Specification has been produced by the 3 Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).
The contents of the present document are subject to continuing work within the TSG and may change following formal
TSG approval. Should the TSG modify the contents of the present document, it will be re-released by the TSG with an
identifying change of release date and an increase in version number as follows:
Version x.y.z
where:
x the first digit:
1 presented to TSG for information;
2 presented to TSG for approval;
3 or greater indicates TSG approved document under change control.
y the second digit is incremented for all changes of substance, i.e. technical enhancements, corrections,
updates, etc.
z the third digit is incremented when editorial only changes have been incorporated in the document.
Introduction
rd
The present document is part of a TS-family covering the 3 Generation Partnership Project; Technical Specification
Group Services and System Aspects; Telecommunication management; as identified below:
32.441 "Trace Management Integration Reference Point (IRP); Requirements".
32.442 "Trace Management Integration Reference Point (IRP); Information Service (IS)".
32.446 "Trace Management Integration Reference Point (IRP); Solution Set (SS) definitions".
The present document is part of a TS-family which describes the requirements and information model necessary for the
Telecommunication Management (TM) of 3G systems. The TM principles and TM architecture are specified in
3GPP TS 32.101 [2] and 3GPP TS 32.102 [3].
Trace provides very detailed information on call level for a specific subscriber or MS. This data is an additional
information source to Performance Measurements and allows deeper investigations in problems solving or in case of
optimization.

1 Scope
The present document specifies the overall requirements for the Trace Management Integration Reference Point
(TraceIRP) as it applies to Itf-N.
The Trace IRP supports the operations that are required for the Subscriber and Equipment trace, the Service Level Trace
, the Cell Traffic Trace, Minimization of Drive Tests (MDT) functionalities across UMTS networks or EPS networks
and Radio Link Failure (RLF) reporting functionalities across EPS networks GSM Trace is outside of the scope of this
specification.
All functions (trace, MDT etc.) specified in this specification supports Network Sharing, with the following condition:
1. It is accepted that the recorded information from the shared network can be sent to any of the operators sharing
the network, taking user consent into account. Operators must also agree on sharing the information, but how
that agreement is done is outside the scope of this specification. The mapping of TCE IP addresses and TCE
addresses must be coordinated among the operators that shares the network. How that coordination is done is
outside the scope of this specification.
2. For signalling based activation, the operators that share a network must coordinate the TCE IP addresses and
the TCE address mapping must be coordinated. How that coordination is done, is outside the scope of this
specification.
3. The 3GPP Managment reference model, 3GPP TS 32.101 [2] is followed.
Editor's note: The requirements for Service Level Tracing are FFS.

5 Trace Requirements
5.1 Trace Management and Itf-N
The Itf-N may connect the Network Management system to the EM, which can be located in either the DM (system
context A) or in the NE (system context B). This is done by means of Integration Reference Points (IRPs).
This clause describes the properties of an interface enabling a NM to monitor a 3G-telecommunication network
including - if necessary - the managing EMs. To provide to the NM the Trace Management capability for the network
implies that the NM and the EM have to agree on the following:
• The identification of the NEs and UE where the Trace Session Activation is requested.
• The identification of the files containing the trace records for retrieval by a Trace Collection Entity.
• The identification of the subscriber or equipment shall be provided in the trace record files in case of subscriber
and equipment trace. In case of Cell Traffic trace the cell identity shall be provided in the trace record file. In the
case of trace in E-UTRAN, as neither the subscriber identity nor the equipment identity are provided to eNodeB,
none of these identifiers are provided in the trace record files from the eNodeB. The connection to which
subscriber or equipment is traced is made by the node that triggers the trace recording session to a Trace
Collection Entity which collects the trace logs (indicated by the IP address in the Trace Session's configur
