7.4.2.3.2 MCPTT server
The MCPTT server functional entity provides centralised support for MCPTT services. All the MCPTT clients supporting users belonging to a single group are required to use the same MCPTT server for that group. An MCPTT client supporting a user involved in multiple groups can have relationships with multiple MCPTT serve...
