scope:

The present document specifies the E-UTRAN network resource information that can be communicated between an IRPAgent and an IRPManager for telecommunication network management purposes, including management of converged networks.

This document specifies the semantics and behaviour of information object class attributes and relations visible across the reference point in a protocol and technology neutral way. It does not define their syntax and encoding.

The E-UTRAN NRM IRP comprises a set of specifications defining Requirements, a protocol neutral Information Service and one or more Solution Set(s).

The present document specifies the protocol neutral E-UTRAN NRM IRP: Information Service (IS). It reuses relevant parts of the Generic NRM IRP: IS in 3GPP TS 28.622 [6], either by direct reuse or sub-classing, and in addition to that defines E-UTRAN specific Information Object Classes.

In order to access the information defined by this NRM, an Interface IRP such as the "Basic CM IRP" is needed (3GPP TS 32.602 [7]). However, which Interface IRP is applicable is outside the scope of the present document.

The present document also specifies the ng-eNB network resource information that can be communicated among NG-RAN management system, including management of MR-DC operations which ng-eNB is involved in.
