I want to understand which are the major EPC nodes involve with VoLTE Charging.

Staring from UE till IMS network.
Basically I want to know end-to-end Flow for VoLTE Charging which involves various Diameter Interface.
Does Gy interface has any role to play,if Yes,why? If No, Why?
It will be very helpful with some arrow diagrams involving the diameter interfaces without any message details.

In LTE network, PGW generates the charging records and sends to the OCS or OFCS node of the billing domain.
Does PGW take care of VoLTE charging or any other node such as S-CSCF or P-CSCF take care ?

For each bearer in volte there are QCI and ARP parameters, for example default bearer qci 9 arp value, qci 5 arp value, qci 1 arp value, and the ARP has the PCI and PVI parameters too.

So in volte network if we need to have a VIP user how will be the mapping between QCI and ARP values?
And this ARP values need to be configured in the Hss for the user and also in the PCRF?
