Clause 3 of this ETS contains a definition of the different functional entities needed to support the mobile service. In clause 4, the configuration of a PLMN is described as well as the organization of the functional entities; the configuration presented is the most general in order to cope with all the possible implementations which can be imagined in the different countries. To illustrate that purpose, some examples of possible configurations are presented.
