• Home Subscriber Server


– User identification and addressing – this corresponds to the IMSI
(International Mobile Subscriber Identity) and MSISDN (Mobile
Subscriber ISDN Number) or mobile telephone number
– User profile information – this includes service subscription states and
user-subscribed Quality of Service information (such as maximum
allowed bit rate or allowed traffic class).
– Mutual network-terminal authentication.
– Radio path ciphering and integrity protection, to ensure data and
signalling transmitted between the network and the terminal is
neither eavesdropped nor altered.
