Feature Description

SMF provides flexibility to the operator to either include or exclude optional Information Element (IE), such as locality, in the NRF messages. Operators can choose the IE through the CLI configuration commands.

SMF sends the skip optional-ies locality CLI command in the NRF message handling profile configuration to exclude sending the locality parameter in the NRF registration and NRF update messages.

The NRF message is a combination of the following messages.

  • nf-deregister

  • nf-list-retrieval

  • nf-profile-retrieval

  • nf-register

  • nf-status-notify

  • nf-status-subscribe

  • nf-status-unsubscribe

  • nf-update

For details on the configuration commands, see the Configuring Control for Optional IEs section.
