Course Details
If you are involved in the monitoring and troubleshooting of 5G networks, you will appreciate that having a good understanding of the 5G protocols is critical. This course focuses specifically on the 5G NAS (Non-Access Stratum) protocol between the device and the 5GC. It details the two NAS sublayers, 5GMM (5GS Mobility Management) and 5GSM (5GS Session Management), before focusing on protocol header formats and key specifics. This course also discusses the role of NAS in security procedures, specifically the NAS security header.
