name: PCF
full_form: Policy Control Function
context: SMF 11. AMF sends the Nsmf_PDUSession_CreateSMContext request to the selected SMF with the trace control and configuration parameters. 12. SMF stores the trace control and configuration parameters received from the AMF. 13. SMF starts the Trace Session according to the received configuration. 14. SMF selects an approprite PCF 15. SMF establishes Session Management Policy Association with PCF (see step 7 in clause 4.3.2.2.1 of 3GPP TS 23.502 [x5]) and provides the trace control and configuration parameters information to the PCF. 16. PCF stores the trace control and configuration parameters received from the SMF as part of Policy Association. 17. PCF starts the Trace Session according to the received configuration. 18. SMF selects an approprite UPF 19. SMF performs N4 Session Establishment with UPF (see step 10 in clause 4.3.2.2.1 of 3GPP TS 23.502 [41]) and provides the trace control and configuration parameters information to the UPF. 20. UPF stores the trace control and
description: The Policy Control Function (PCF) is a network function responsible for storing and enforcing policy decisions related to user equipment (UE) sessions, including trace control and configuration parameters. It interacts with other network functions such as the Session Management Function (SMF) and User Plane Function (UPF) to manage session policies.
explanation: PCF is classified as a Network Function based on its role in managing policy decisions for UE sessions within the network, as highlighted by the context of interacting with SMF and UPF.
