S6b Interface 
This reference point, between a P-GW and a 3GPP AAA server/proxy, is used for mobility-related authentication. It 
may also be used to retrieve and request parameters related to mobility and to retrieve static QoS profiles for UEs (for 
non-3GPP access) in the event that dynamic PCC is not supported. 
 
Supported protocols: 
 
  Transport Layer: TCP, SCTP 
  Network Layer: IPv4, IPv6 
  Data Link Layer: ARP 
  Physical Layer: Ethernet
