6.10 Study on Architecture for Next Generation System (FS_NexGen)
TD S2 160049 LS from SA WG5: LS on definition of Network Service. (SA WG5)
Abstract: In the discussion of NFV management, SA WG5 has the following position: 1. 3GPP compliant operators provide application level services supported by 3GPP systems. 2. Mobile Network Services are provided by 3GPP networks to end users. 3. The term 'Network Service' used in 3GPP is a different concept to the term 'Network Service' used in ETSI GS NFV 003 V1.2.1. SA WG5 has not found an adequate definition of 'Network Service' in 3GPP specifications. 3GPP SA WG5 would appreciate 3GPP SA WG1 to indicate whether there is an official definition of 'Network Service' in 3GPP specifications.
Convenors comment: Proposed to be noted as CC for SA WG2.
