name: IQF
full_form: Identity Query Function
context: The IQF is responsible for receiving and responding to LEA requests over LI_HIQR. Following receipt of a request over LI_HIQR, the IQF shall validate the request and ensure that the request is within the cache period of associations stored in the ICF. If the request is valid and within the ICF cache period, the IQF shall send an association search request to the ICF over LI_XQR. If the request is not within the ICF cache period or overwise invalid, the IQF shall reject the request and respond to the LEA over LI_HIQR. Following receipt of an association search request response from the ICF over LI_XQR, the IQF shall forward any matching identifier association(s) to the LEA over LI_HIQR. If the ICF indicates zero matches were found based on the information provided in the initial request over LI_HIQR, the IQF shall respond to the LEA over LI_HIQR indicating that no identifier associations were found based on the request from the LEA. If the ICF responds with multiple associations of
description: The Identity Query Function (IQF) is a network component responsible for handling identity queries and managing identifier associations within the Lawful Interception (LI) framework. It interacts with other functions, such as the Law Enforcement Agency (LEA) and the Identifier Correlation Function (ICF), to facilitate the exchange of information and ensure the integrity of the LI process.
explanation: The IQF is classified as a Network Function because it performs specific tasks within a telecommunications network, namely managing identity queries and interacting with other network functions like the LEA and ICF.
