Section: 6.26.2.2 5G LAN-virtual network (5G LAN-VN)
Content: A UE shall be able to select a 5G LAN-VN, that the UE is a member of, for private communication. A 5G system shall support 5G LAN-VNs with member UEs numbering between a few to tens of thousands. The 5G system shall be able to support large numbers of small 5G LAN-VNs. NOTE: Targeting residential deployments translate into millions of 5GLAN-VN per operator per country. These residential 5G LAN-VNs typically contain between 10-50 devices. The 5G LAN-VN shall support member UEs that are subscribed to different PLMNs, e.g. a 5G LAN-VN may span multiple countries and have member UEs that have a subscription to a PLMN in their home country. The 5G system shall support on-demand establishment of UE to UE, multicast, and broadcast private communication between members UEs of the same 5G LAN-VN. Multiple types of data communication shall be supported, at least IP and Ethernet. The 5G network shall ensure that only member UEs of the same 5G LAN-VN are able to establish or maintain private communications among each other using 5G LAN-type service. The 5G system shall allow member UEs of a 5G LAN-VN to join an authorized multicast session over that 5G LAN-VN. The 5G system shall be able to restrict private communications within a 5G LAN-VN based on UE’s location (i.e. when the UE moves out of the area it can no longer communicate on the 5G LAN-VN). The 5G network shall enable member UEs of a 5G LAN-VN to use multicast/broadcast over a 5G LAN-type service to communicate with required latency (e.g. 180 ms). The 5G system shall support a mechanism to provide consistent QoE to all the member UEs of the same 5G LAN-VN. The 5G system shall support routing based on a private addressing scheme within the 5G LAN-VN. The 5G system shall support a communication path between a non-3GPP device in the CPN and a UE in the 5G-LAN VN via the eRG of the CPN, for an eRG that is part of the 5G LAN-VN.
