The Communications Diversion (CDIV) service enables a ‘diverting user’ to divert communications addressed to the ‘diverting user’ to another destination .

The service description of CDIV’s services CFU, CFB, CFNR, and CD is based on the PSTN/ISDN supplementary services; whereas CFNL is a CDIV service based on requirements for IP-based networks; and CFNRc is based on requirements for mobile networks.

The services are:

  • Communication Forwarding Unconditional (CFU)

  • Communication Forwarding on Busy user (CFB)

  • Communication Forwarding on no Reply (CFNR)

  • Communication Forwarding on Subscriber Not Reachable (CFNRc)

  • Communication Deflection (CD)

  • Communication Forwarding on Not Logged-in (CFNL).

Specification References

GSMA IR.92 Reference Information

This is taken from IR.92 v9.0:

2.3.8 Communication Diversion

The UE and IMS core network must support the SIP procedures in 3GPP TS 24.604 for Communication Diversion (CDIV). For CDIV service activation, deactivation, and interrogation (XCAP operations), the UE and IMS core network must support the XML rules for Call Forwarding Unconditional and the conditions, actions and elements listed in Table 2.2. The UE and IMS core network shall support the XML rules as described in 3GPP TS 24.604 section 4.9.1. The UE must support the History-Info header for identification of diverting parties at the terminating side and of diverted-to parties at the originating side. At the terminating side, a History-Info entry shall be used for the identification of the diverting party only if another History-Info entry exists that has assigned the next index in sequence AND includes a cause value. At the originating side only History-Info entries including a cause value shall be used for presentation of the diverted-to party. Note: Support of subscription options and other conditions and actions are out of scope of the document.

It then shows the following table (reformatted)

Note: The GSM version of Communication Forwarding on Not Reachable (CFNRc) implies diversion when the user is not registered in the CS core or cannot be reached. To mimic this behaviour, it is recommended that an UE activates both the CFNRc (CDIV using condition not-reachable) and the Communication Forwarding on Not Logged-in (CFNL) (CDIV using condition not-registered) to the same target.

Scope

In Scope

The following are in scope:

  • Communication Forwarding Unconditional (CFU)

  • Communication Forwarding on Busy user (CFB)

  • Support for User Determined User Busy (UDUB)

  • Communication Forwarding on No Reply (CFNR)

  • Communication Forwarding on Subscriber Not Reachable (CFNRc)

  • Communication Deflection (CD)

  • Communication Forwarding on Not Logged-in (CFNL)

  • Checking of the diversion limits

  • Communication Diversion Notification (CDIVN) — 181 responses

Out of Scope

The following are out of scope:

  • There is no support for “Ringing continues” in the no reply timeout case (option for CFNR).

  • There is no support for Network Determined User Busy (NDUB).

  • Deliver to last diverted user is not implemented as an approach when Max Diversions has been exceeded. This is because we consider it a bad practice.

Network Operator Data

Network (or Operator) data may come from two sources:

  • Provisioned data in the VoLTE platform stored in a profile table named MMTelCDIVConfigProfileTable.

  • Received from the HSS in the <operator-communication-diversion> section of the CDIV network data fetched from the HSS.

Properties received from the HSS in the <operator-communication-diversion> section of an MMTel-Services XML document take precedence over data in the MMTelCDIVConfigProfileTable.

Platform Network Operator Data

Network configuration is stored in a JSLEE profile table named MMTelCDIVConfigProfileTable.

Individual configurations are entries in this table. The data is scoped on Sentinel Selection Key.

AllowNotReachableDuringAlerting

boolean

false

A flag that when set to true, will allow the CDIV not-reachable condition to trigger when the call is in the alerting state (usually this condition only triggers in the pre-alerting state).

HSS Network Operator Data

There are three elements of <operator-communication-diversion> received from the HSS that the CDIV feature may apply.

Element Description
<total-number-of-diversions-for-each-communication>
                    3
</total-number-of-diversions-for-each-communication>

This property, if present, take precedence over the MaxDiversionCount property of the Platform Network Operator Data profile. See the Diversion Limit section

<communication-forwarding-on-no-reply-timer>
                   30
</communication-forwarding-on-no-reply-timer>

This property, if present, take precedence over the NoReplyTimeout property of the Platform Network Operator Data profile.

<cp:ruleset>
    <cp:rule id="busy">

            </forward-to>
        </cp:actions>
    </cp:rule>
</cp:ruleset>

The CDIV feature supports an extension to the standard that allows an operator ruleset to be defined. Operator rules are evaluated before other rules.

The other child elements of <operator-communication-diversion> are not read by the CDIV feature.

Note The schema for the Operator part of the Communication Diversion (CDIV) services has been extended to support an optional ruleset.

Behaviour

Condition Evaluation

Triggered conditions and non-triggered conditions are part of CDIV rule and condition evaluation.

  • Triggered conditions include:

    • Communication Forwarding on Busy user (CFB)

    • Communication Forwarding on No Reply (CFNR)

    • Communication Forwarding on Subscriber Not Reachable (CFNRc)

    • Communication Deflection (CD)

    • Communication Forwarding on Not Logged-in (CFNL)

    • Communication Forwarding Unconditional (CFU)

Note Triggered conditions are mutually exclusive, therefore if more than one is in a rule the rule will evaluate to false.
  • Non-triggered conditions include:

    • Media Type

    • Validity.

Note Non-triggered conditions can evaluate to true in any type of diversion.
Triggered conditions can only evaluate to true at particular points of session processing.
Triggered condition name Applicable point in session XML condition element value from HSS

Communication Forwarding on Busy user (CFB)

486-BUSY response

<cp:conditions><busy/></cp:conditions>

Communication Forwarding on No Reply (CFNR)

A 180 Ringing response followed by a 408 response, or a 180 Ringing response followed by No Reply timer expiry

<cp:conditions><no-answer/></cp:conditions>

Communication Forwarding on Subscriber Not Reachable (CFNRc)

500, 503, or 408 response prior to a 180 response, or a response with a status code included in the AdditionalNotReachableStatusCodes configuration parameter. Usually only triggers in pre-alerting call state, but can be configured to trigger during alerting (except on 408 responses) using the AllowNotReachableDuringAlerting configuration parameter.

<cp:conditions><not-reachable/></cp:conditions>

Communication Deflection (CD)

302 response

Not configurable through XCAP

Communication Forwarding on Not Logged-in (CFNL)

Receipt of INVITE request

<cp:conditions><not-registered/></cp:conditions>

Communication Forwarding Unconditional (CFU)

Receipt of INVITE request

<cp:conditions/>

Media

Media is evaluated as part of condition evaluation. Therefore CFB can cause a re-targeting to different destinations if there are several diversion rules with busy and media conditions.

Media-only conditions can be used to immediately re-target INVITE requests matching media conditions.

An example where all sessions that contain both audio and video are diverted is as follows:

<cp:conditions>
    <media>video</media>
    <media>audio</media>
</cp:conditions>

Each <media> element value is searched against all media descriptions in the INVITE request SDP. If all media conditions match, then the conditions block evaluates to true.

Validity

Validity provides the ability to filter a condition based on date comparisons. For example:

<cp:conditions>
    <busy/>
    <cp:validity>
        <cp:from>2015-01-01T00:00:00</cp:from>
        <cp:until>2015-01-31T23:59:59</cp:until>
    </cp:validity>
</cp:conditions>

This conditions block will evaluate to true if the condition is evaluated during January 2015.

Deflection and CDIV

There is no XCAP rule for receipt of 302, yet the CDIV specification clearly describes the re-targeting of the INVITE due to a 302 response.

We interpret this as hardcoded behaviour of the CDIV feature.

Request URI for a Re-targeted INVITE

The request URI is set to the SIP URI or tel URI where the communication is being diverted to.

This comes from the <target> sub-element of the <forward-to> element in a CDIV rule’s actions:

<cp:actions>
    <forward-to>
        <target>sip:6505550201@example.com</target>
    </forward-to>
</cp:actions>

It may or may not have a target parameter, and always has a cause parameter and MMTel service type parameter.

Target Parameter

The request URI has a target parameter if and only if the re-targeting is due to a response, such as in the following cases:

  • busy

  • no-answer

  • deflection

  • not-reachable.

The target parameter is set to the request URI for the received initial INVITE, including all parameters. Any parameters of the original request URI are in escaped format. This is to ensure that the SIP message has valid syntax.

Conversely, if communication forwarding is due to Unconditional, or Not Logged In, then there is no target parameter in the request URI.

Cause Parameter

There is always a cause parameter for every re-targeted INVITE.

The cause-param parameter of the request URI is simple cause= appended with a “cause value”.

Cause Cause Value Determination Rule
Communication Forwarding on Busy
486

UDUB — 486 Response received

503

500, 503, or 408 response prior to a 180-RINGING response, or a response with a status code included in the AdditionalNotReachableStatusCodes configuration parameter. Usually only triggers in pre-alerting call state, but can be configured to trigger during alerting (except on 408 responses) using the AllowNotReachableDuringAlerting configuration parameter.

MMTel Service Type Parameter

There is always a MMTel service type for every re-targeted INVITE.

The mmtel-service-type parameter of the request URI is simple mmtel-service-type=6 for CDIV.

181 Responses

A 181 notification is sent to the calling party in a CDIV scenario if the <notify-caller> element is set to true or if the element is missing from the condition. For example:

<cp:conditions/>
    <cp:actions>
        <forward-to>
            <target>sip:6505550201@example.com</target>
            <notify-caller>true</notify-caller>
        </forward-to>
    </cp:actions>
Warning A 181 notification will not be sent if the <notify-caller> element is set to false.

Reveal Served User Identity to Caller

There is an optional flag that triggers TIR on 181 responses to the calling party.

<cp:conditions/>
    <cp:actions>
        <forward-to>
            <target>sip:6505550201@example.com</target>
            <notify-caller>true</notify-caller>
            <reveal-served-user-identity-to-caller>true</reveal-served-user-identity-to-caller>
        </forward-to>
    </cp:actions>

Reveal Served User Identity to Diverted-To Party

There is an optional flag - reveal-identity-to-target - that determines whether the identity of the diverting party is revealed to the diverted-to party or not.

<cp:conditions/>
    <cp:actions>
        <forward-to>
            <target>sip:6505550201@example.com</target>
            <notify-caller>true</notify-caller>
            <reveal-served-user-identity-to-caller>true</reveal-served-user-identity-to-caller>
            <reveal-identity-to-target>false</reveal-identity-to-target>
        </forward-to>
    </cp:actions>
  • If reveal-identity-to-target is set to true, then the To header is the SIP identity of the diverting party.

  • If reveal-identity-to-target is set to false, then the To header is modified to the SIP identity of the diverted-to party.

  • If reveal-identity-to-target is omitted, the default is true

CDIV, OIR and Served User Identity

The OIR Feature also determines if the identity of the diverting party is revealed to the diverted-to party or not

  • If OIR is inactive for the diverting party, then the To header is the SIP identity of the diverting party.

  • If OIR is active for the diverting party, then the To header is modified to the SIP identity of the diverted-to party.

One Re-targeted INVITE

The MMTelCDIV feature will only ever re-target once. This is because MMTelCDIV is designed to execute on a public network. Private network derivations of this feature do not need to follow this rule.

As the feature re-targets once, it will insert one history-info element into one INVITE to represent a re-targeting.

The only case the feature inserts more than one element into history-info is in the case where no history-info or an empty history-info was received in the initial INVITE.

CDIV Suppression

There is a case where the CDIV feature needs to be suppressed even though it may be active. This is needed on an MT call, when the SCC-AS diverts a call to a CS network as the MSC will have its own CDIV services. This means that, when the call is diverted to CS, the MMTel-AS does not divert any calls, and cancels any remaining no-reply timers. If the SCC-AS utilizes parallel-routing (i.e. forwards call to both PS and CS domain), the MMTel-AS will respond in the same way.

CDIV suppression is achieved by analysing the provisional responses for the given call. These responses contain the OC-Terminating-Domain custom header, which indicates what network the call is diverted to. Because the no-reply timers are typically set upon provisional responses (i.e. 18X responses), it is here that CDIV suppression is engaged/disengaged.

The presence of CDIV suppression is configurable. Setting the SuppressForCSTerminatingDomain attribute of the MmtelCDIVConfigProfile profile to false will disable the aforementioned CDIV suppression. Its default value is true, which leaves CDIV suppression enabled.

CDIV Default Target URI

The CDIV feature can optionally use a default URI for re-targeting requests. The default URI is stored in the DefaultTargetURI field as a String. This default URI is applied when there is a re-targeting rule and no URI to forward to. The default re-targeting URI can be enabled using the DefaultTargetEnabled boolean variable.

CDIV No Reply Timer

When CDIV sees a 180 Ringing response, it will check to see if there are any rules relevant to Communication Forwarding on No Reply (CFNR). If there is at least one relevant rule, CDIV sets a CDIV No Reply Timer. The duration of the timer is:

  1. the <communication-forwarding-on-no-reply-timer> value in the <operator-communication-diversion> section of the MMTel-Services XML data, if present

  2. …​ or the Network Operator Data NoReplyTimeout field

Diversion Limit

The CDIV feature enforces a limit on the maximum number of times a call may be diverted, this limit is:

  1. the <total-number-of-diversions-for-each-communication> value in the <operator-communication-diversion> section of the MMTel-Services XML data, if present

  2. …​ or the MaxDiversionCount field in the feature’s network operator data.

Before a call is diverted, this limit is checked against the number of diversions that have already occurred to ensure the new diversion can go ahead.

When the diversion limit is exceeded there are a number of things that can happen based on these Network Operator Data fields: NoRetargetURI, MaxDiversionAction, and MaxDiversionFixedDestination.

First, the feature will check the value of the next target URI against the list of URI’s in the NoRetargetURI field. This field contains a comma separated list of known URI’s that will never themselves trigger additional re-targeting. If the next target URI is present in this list, the feature considers it "safe" to allow the diversion to take place and the diversion limit will not be immediately enforced.

In the event that the next target URI is not in the NoRetargetURI list, the feature will execute its max diversion behaviour. There are two possible outcomes, based on the value of the MaxDiversionAction field.

  1. If the field is set to REJECT, then the feature will reject the INVITE request with a 486 response in the event that the last re-target was triggered by CFB (Call Forward Busy), or a 480 response in all other cases.

  2. If the field is set to DELIVER_TO_FIXED_DESTINATION, then the feature will attempt to re-target the call to the URI given in the MaxDiversionFixedDestination field.

If the MaxDiversionAction field is set to DELIVER_TO_FIXED_DESTINATION, but the MaxDiversionFixedDestination field does not contain a valid URI, then the feature will reject the INVITE as if MaxDiversionAction field had been set to REJECT.

Choosing the CDIV Rule to Apply

The <communication-diversion> and <operator-communication-diversion> sections of the MMTel-Services XML document can contain diversion rules. A rule may be relevant for a diversion scenario (e.g CFB) and it may be applicable to a particular communication session (i.e its condition evaluates to true).

The CDIV feature:

  1. finds all rules that are appropriate for a diversion scenario (e.g CFU)

  2. evaluates the operator rules first

  3. If no operator rule was applied, then evaluate subscriber rules

Consider the following example, where there are two rules relevant for CFU.

<complete-communication-diversion>
  <communication-diversion active="true">
    <!-- ... -->
    <cp:ruleset>
      <cp:rule id="Audio">
        <cp:conditions>
          <media>audio</media>
        </cp:conditions>
        <cp:actions>
          <forward-to>
            <target>sip:bob@audio.somewhere.com</target>
            <notify-caller>false</notify-caller>
          </forward-to>
        </cp:actions>
      </cp:rule>
    </cp:ruleset>
  </communication-diversion>
  <operator-communication-diversion authorized="true">
    <!-- ... -->
    <cp:ruleset>
      <cp:rule id="Video">
        <cp:conditions>
          <media>video</media>
        </cp:conditions>
        <cp:actions>
          <forward-to>
            <target>sip:bob@video.somewhere.com</target>
            <notify-caller>false</notify-caller>
          </forward-to>
        </cp:actions>
      </cp:rule>
    </cp:ruleset>
  </operator-communication-diversion>
</complete-communication-diversion>

The subscriber rule will cause audio calls to be forwarded to sip:bob@audio.somewhere.com. The operator rule will cause video calls to be forwarded to sip:bob@video.somewhere.com.

case #1 Alice makes a Video call to bob.

  1. Search operator rules and evaluate rule 'Video', which matches, so forward the call.

---alice---[Video]--->bob----->(rule id="Video")---->bob@video.somewhere.com

case #2 Alice makes an Audio call to bob.

  1. Search operator rules and evaluate rule 'Video', which does not match

  2. Search subscriber rules and evaluate rule 'Audio`, which matches, so forward the call.
