name: SCP
full_form: Service Communication Proxy
context: For indirect communication shown in Annex E, the SCP performs the following functionalities regarding Network Function and Network Function Service discovery and selection: - If the request includes a Routing Binding Indication, the SCP shall route the service request to the requested target as specified in Table 6.3.1.0-1. If the Routing Binding Indication does not exist, the SCP may get the NF Set ID from the NRF or local configuration (if available). - If the request recipient had previously provided a Binding Indication, then the request sender shall include a Routing Binding Indication with the same contents in subsequent related requests.
description: The Service Communication Proxy (SCP) is a network function that facilitates indirect communication between network functions and services. It plays a crucial role in service request routing, Network Function (NF) and NF Service discovery, and selection. The SCP's primary functionalities include routing service requests to the requested target based on Routing Binding Indications, obtaining NF Set IDs from the NRF or local configuration when necessary, and handling Binding Indications for subsequent related requests.
explanation: SCP is classified as a Network Function because it acts as an intermediary for communication between different network functions and services, enabling efficient discovery, selection, and routing of service requests within the 5G core architecture, as specified in Annex E.
