SubscriberDataLookupFromHSS is responsible for reading data from the HSS and writing it into Sentinel session state fields.

The data it reads from the HSS must be accessed from TransparentUserData in the HSS.

Source Code

This feature’s source code is available in the Sentinel VoLTE SDK in the volte-hss-subscriber-data-lookup-2 module pack. It can be viewed by using the create-module command in the SDK with that module pack, for example:

> create-module new-hss2-module opencloud#volte-hss-subscriber-data-lookup-2#volte/2.7.0;2.7.0.0

This command will prompt you for information needed to create the new modules, once completed the original source for the feature can be found in the new modules.

The module-pack includes the following modules:

Module Name Description

volte-hss-subscriber-data-lookup-2-service-indication-profile

Contains the profile specification for the feature configuration profile table.

Configuration

This feature has an out-of-the-box configuration ensuring the MMTel features work. The configuration may be extended to

  • support additional MMTel features that use the MMTel services XML schema

  • support additional features that use a different XML schema

This configuration extensibility is supported through the profile table named ${PlatformOperatorName}_SubscriberDataLookupFromHss2ServiceIndicationProfileTable. If the platform operator name is RocketInc then the profile table name is RocketInc_SubscriberDataLookupFromHss2ServiceIndicationProfileTable.

The profile table contains one profile for each Service Indication that shall be queried in the HSS. Each profile defines:

  1. the Service-Indication

  2. the fully qualified class name of the Transparent Data Codec class - used to parse the returned XML into a Java Object

  3. a list of adaptor class names (fully qualified class names)

  4. an option to enable or disable the query

This table, by the default, has entries for MMTEL-Services and the IMS-ODB-Information. The MMTEL-Services query is enabled by default, while IMS-ODB-Information is disabled. The query can be enabled or disabled by setting the value of DisableQuery field to true or false. A value of true disables the query.

Statistics

SubscriberDataLookupFromHss statistics are tracked by the SubscriberDataLookupFromHss2 SBB and can be found under the following parameter set: SLEE-Usage → volte.sentinel.sip service ID → SubscriberDataLookupFromHss2 SBB ID.

Name Type Description 
Invoked

Counter

Incremented each time the feature runs.

 
Failed

Counter

Incremented if a fatal error occurs while the feature is running.

 
SubscriberDataRetrieved

Counter

Incremented when the feature receives subscriber data from the HSS or Sh-Cache.

 
SessionStatePopulated

Counter

Incremented after the feature successfully processes the data it received, and loads it into session state fields.

 
AdaptorClassError

Counter

Incremented when Adaptor class is not of type SimservsSessionAdaptor or the feature fails to retrieve adaptor class.

 
CodecClassError

Counter

Incremented when Codec class is not of type ServiceDataCodec or the feature fails to retrieve codec class.

 
Misconfigured

Counter

Incremented when absent configuration data prevents the feature from running.

 
SessionStateNotFound

Counter

Incremented when the session state field the feature requires for operation is missing.

 
ResponseLatency

Sampled

Records elapsed time between sending the request to the HSS and getting a response (in milliseconds).

Behaviour

This feature uses the Sh Cache RA to access the HSS.

Each time the feature is invoked, it determines the IMS public identity that it should use to query the HSS.

If the session input variable DefaultPublicID of the first RegistrationRecord in the RegistrationRecords list is present, this field is used as the IMS public identity in the HSS query. Otherwise, the the session input variable subscriber is used as the IMS public identity in the HSS query.

The feature requests the Sh Cache RA to fetch the transparent user data for the IMS Public Identifier and Service Indication. This data is stored in the corresponding session-state fields.

The feature can be configured to fetch multiple Service Indications, i.e. to retrieve different documents. The out-of-the-box configuration looks for the MMTel Services document.

For each profile in the feature’s configuration

  1. the feature requests the Sh Cache RA to fetch the transparent user data document

  2. Once a result is available, each adaptor in the list of adaptors is invoked in order to populate session state

MMTel Schema to Session-State Fields

The MMTel Services schema is configured into this feature in all out-of-the-box installations. This section describes the source of a variable (from within the returned document), and the destination session state field name and attribute for the out-of-the-box configuration.
