The PCRF Nodal Test Case


The PCRF Nodal test case allows you to emulate the Access Gateway (AGW) and Application Function (AF) such that a PCRF can be tested in isolation. Landslide emulates the AGW to provide the Ty interface to the PCRF, and emulates the AF to provide the Tx interface to the PCRF.

NOTE: Although defined slightly different in their associated standards, both the 3GPP and 3GPP2 organizations have implemented a policy decision function and associated reference points. 3GPP2 defines the reference points as Tx and Ty, while 3GPP defines them as Rx and Gx. The Landslide PCRF Test application provides support for all four reference points in any combination.

With this test case, you define:
