9.2 Requirements supported by existing NGN capabilities

Based on the service requirements in clause 8, this clause specifies requirements supported by
existing NGN capabilities for the support of MOC applications.

9.2.1 Group management
The group management requirements specified in clause 8.12 are supported by the existing
capabilities of NGN [ITU-T Y.2201].

9.2.2 Location management
NGN provides the location management capability which determines and reports information
regarding the location of users and devices within the NGN. The location management requirements
specified in clause 8.11 are supported by the existing capabilities of NGNs [ITU-T Y.2201].

9.2.3 Security
An NGN provides security capabilities. The service requirements specified in clause 8.13 are
supported by the existing capabilities of NGNs [ITU-T Y.2201] [ITU-T Y.2701].
9.2.4 Group related communication modes

Based on the service requirements in clause 8.12, an NGN is required to support the following
communication modes for MOC groups (with MOC devices and gateways directly or indirectly
connected to NGNs):

– any cast
– multicast
– broadcast.

These requirements are supported by the existing capabilities of NGNs [ITU-T Y.2201].

10 Capability requirements of an MOC device domain
This clause identifies the capability requirements of an MOC device domain for the support of
MOC applications.

10.1 Application enablement

Based on the requirements in clause 8.4, the following requirements apply to the MOC gateway and
MOC device's capabilities:

1) MOC devices are recommended to support a set of abstracted operations.
2) MOC devices are recommended to support the implementation of service logic to provide
MOC capabilities.

3) MOC gateways can optionally support a set of abstracted operations on MOC devices.
4) MOC gateways can optionally support the implementation of service logic to provide MOC
capabilities.

10.2 Mobility
Based on the requirements in clause 8.1, the following requirements apply to the MOC gateway and
device's capabilities:
1) MOC gateways and MOC devices are required to support enhanced mobility management
capabilities in order to support different levels of mobility.
