Equivalent PLMN List

Last updated: December 3, 2008

This section is only applicable to the lab application.

The test set allows you to set a list of equivalent PLMNs that will be sent in the LOCATION UPDATING ACCEPT, ATTACH ACCEPT or ROUTING AREA UPDATE ACCEPT message. Each of the items in the list contains a PLMN code (MCC plus MNC). The mobile station store the list at the end of each location update procedure. If no list is contained in the LOCATION UPDATING ACCEPT, ATTACH ACCEPT or ROUTING AREA UPDATE ACCEPT message, the stored list in the mobile station is deleted.

See 3GPP TS 24.008 for more information about Equivalent PLMN List information.
