Feature Description

The Network Repository Function (NRF) deployment can be logically segmented as global, regional, and so on, for a reliable network management. You can accomplish this segmentation by specifying different NRF endpoint groups for the discovery of different network functions.

For example, the SMF interacts with Region 1 NRF endpoints for management and AMF discovery. For UDM, CHF, and PCF discovery, the SMF communicates with the global NRF endpoints.

The following figure illustrates the NRF deployment.
