GTPPRB: Cause code returned by Charging Gateway (see ETSI TS 12.15).




GTPPRB: GTPPRB notifies the GGSN about a successful operation.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB tells the GGSN to delete the operation which failed due to a nonexistent context.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB received a message with invalid format.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB tells that the old SGSN IMSI cannot be found./GCSPRB: GCSPRB has noted that the IMSI has changed during the MM/SM procedure. The ongoing procedure is rejected./GIPPRB: Location information was requested with an invalid IMSI.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB informs the old SGSN about a collision of attach or detach./GS1PRB: MS GPRS detached.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB informs the old SGSN that the MS is lost or it is not of GPRS quality.

GTPPRB, GUDPRB: GTPPRB's TID table or sequence number table (for RAUs) has run out of room./The GTP had resources for 500 simultaneous inter-unit RAUs before Change Notes SG2_0326, SG3_0152 and SG31_0199; after these, there are resources for 5000 simultaneous inter-unit RAUs./This cause is also set when TEID table or PDP table becomes full./GTPPRB: Cause code (199) returned by the GGSN (see 3GPP TS 29.060)./GMGPRB: PRFILE is active with PDP_REJ_IF_RAB_FAILS parameter. Therefore, every RAB failure causes PDP context rejection with this cause.

GTPPRB: MS97/98 is trying to create secondary context./GS1PRB: Service not supported by the mobile station.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB tells that the GGSN could not decode a mandatory IE.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB tells that the GGSN could not find a mandatory IE.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB tells that the GGSN could not decode an optional IE.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB sets this when there is no appropriate error cause. This cause can also come directly from the GGSN (see 3GPP TS 29.060)./GLRPRB: GSBASE reading error during location request.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB informs the old SGSN that the MS is not allowed to roam.

GTPPRB: GTPPRB informs the old SGSN about a PTMSI signature mismatch./GMGPRB: The PTMSI signature received from the MS does not match the current one; routing area needs to be updated otherwise the attach is rejected.

GGBPRB: Radio link quality is insufficient to continue communication.

GGBPRB: BSS has ordered the MS to perform a cell re-selection.

GRNPRB: erroneous IMSI is received from GMGPRB./GMGPRB: in an attach, detach, or RAU update, the type is unknown. The attach or RAU is rejected.

GIPPRB (Case 1): GIPPRB: an attach or inter-PAPU RAU is rejected during lower-layer GPRS mobility management procedures, because there is no capacity for new subscribers in the TLLI table. This is an internal error in the 2G SGSN that prevents an attach or inter PAPU RAU./GIPPRB (Case 2): The Iu-initiated PS Paging could not be performed in the Gb-interface because the GIPPRB TLLI table was full./GCSPRB: handling (reading or writing) of the GCSPRB file fails.
