<span class="h1">P-Access-Network-Info ABNF Update</span>
Abstract
This document updates <a href="./rfc7315">RFC 7315</a>, by modifying the extension-access-
info part of the P-Access-Network-Info header field Augmented Backus-
Naur Form (ABNF), and by adding the following 'access-info' header
field parameter values to the list of 'access-info' header field
parameter values in the ABNF: 'operator-specific-GI' and
'utran-sai-3gpp'. The values are defined in the ABNF but are not
included in the list.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>. Introduction</span>
[<a id="ref-RFC7315">RFC7315</a>] defines the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [<a href="./rfc3261" title=""SIP: Session Initiation Protocol"">RFC3261</a>]
P-Access-Network-Info header field.
The header field syntax contains an 'access-info' header field
parameter, with a set of pre-defined values. Most pre-defined values
follow the 'generic-param' rule [<a href="./rfc3261" title=""SIP: Session Initiation Protocol"">RFC3261</a>]. However, currently the
Augmented Backus-Naur Form (ABNF) [<a href="./rfc5234" title=""Augmented BNF for Syntax Specifications: ABNF"">RFC5234</a>] in [<a href="./rfc7315" title=""Private Header (P-Header) Extensions to the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for the 3GPP"">RFC7315</a>] requires new
values to follow the 'gen-value' rule [<a href="./rfc3261" title=""SIP: Session Initiation Protocol"">RFC3261</a>], which is more
restrictive than 'generic-param'. There is no justification for the
restriction, and new values have already been defined following the
'generic-param' rule.
The ABNF also defines the following 'access-info' header field
parameter values: 'operator-specific-GI' and 'utran-sai-3gpp'.
However, the values are not included in the list of 'access-info'
values.
This document updates <a href="./rfc7315#section-5.4">Section 5.4 of [RFC7315]</a>, by modifying the
extension-access-info part of the P-Access-Network-Info header field
ABNF.

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc7913">RFC 7913</a> PANI ABNF June 2016</span>
As the P-Access-Network-Info header field is mainly used in networks
defined by the 3rd-Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), where new
values following the 'generic-param' rule have been defined
[<a href="#ref-TS.3GPP.24.229">TS.3GPP.24.229</a>], the update is not considered to cause issues with
backward compatibility.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-2" href="#section-2">2</a>. Update to <a href="./rfc7315">RFC 7315</a></span>
This section updates the ABNF defined in <a href="./rfc7315#section-5.4">Section 5.4 of RFC 7315</a>, as
described below:
Old syntax:
access-info = cgi-3gpp / utran-cell-id-3gpp /
dsl-location / i-wlan-node-id /
ci-3gpp2 / eth-location /
ci-3gpp2-femto / fiber-location /
np / gstn-location /local-time-zone /
dvb-rcs2-node-id / extension-access-info
np = "network-provided"
extension-access-info = gen-value
New syntax:
access-info = cgi-3gpp / utran-cell-id-3gpp /
dsl-location / i-wlan-node-id /
ci-3gpp2 / eth-location /
ci-3gpp2-femto / fiber-location /
np / gstn-location /local-time-zone /
dvb-rcs2-node-id / operator-specific-GI /
utran-sai-3gpp / extension-access-info
np = "network-provided"
extension-access-info = generic-param
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-3" href="#section-3">3</a>. Security Considerations</span>
The security considerations for the P-Access-Network-Info header
field are defined in [<a href="./rfc7315" title=""Private Header (P-Header) Extensions to the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for the 3GPP"">RFC7315</a>]. The ABNF update defined in this
document does not impact the security considerations.
