Feature Description
The IP Pool Allocation per DNN feature supports mapping of a UE-requested DNN to a configured DNN for IP Pool selection. This feature is supported for the SMF and PGW-C in 5G and 4G.
The IP Pool Allocation per DNN feature supports the following functionalities:
-
Enables SMF to support a new configuration under the DNN profile to enable mapping of the UE-requested DNN to a DNN that is associated with an IP pool.
-
Sends the mapped DNN over Remote Procedure Call (gRPC) to the Resource Manager functionality under Node Manager service for IP allocation.
-
Supports the new configuration for IP Pool DNN over the virtual DNN with Redundancy Manager, if available.
-
Sends the UE-requested DNN when both the new configuration for IP pool and the virtual DNN are unavailable.
