Configuring Internal Virtual IP for Protocol Endpoint

The protocol endpoint is the configuration for the UDP-Proxy pod. The UDP-Proxy pod receives the IPC request to send the UDP message from the RADIUS-EP pod. The UDP-Proxy pod then converts the message to a proper UDP packet and sends it to the radius server. When radius server is sending UDP packet to the SMF, the UDP-Proxy pod receives and forwards the packet on the TCP connection to the RADIUS-EP pod.

config 
   instance instance-idgr_instance_id 
      endpoint protocol 
         replicasreplica_id 
         nodesnode_id 
         internal-vip{ SMF_UDP_PROXY_INTERNAL_VIP } 
         vip-ip{ client_ipv4_address } 
      exit 
   exit 

NOTES:

  • instance instance-idgr_instance_id : Specify GR Instance ID.

  • endpoint protocol : Enter the endpoint configuration mode.

  • replicasreplica_id : Specifies the replica server's ID.

  • nodesnode_id : Specify the node ID for the SMF peer node. The value must be a string.

  • internal-VIP{ SMF_UDP_PROXY_INTERNAL_VIP } : Specify the IP address of the UDP-Proxy for internal SMF communication, Radius-ep uses this IP address to reach the UDP proxy for outgoing AAA messages.

  • VIP-ip{ client_ipv4_address } : Specify the IP address of the dynamic authorization client. ipv4_address must be in standard IPv4 dotted decimal notation.

Example

The following is an example configuration.

config
   instance instance-id 1
      endpoint protocol
         replicas 1
         nodes 2
         internal-vip {SMF_UDP_PROXY_INTERNAL_VIP}
         vip-ip { client_ipv4_address}
      exit
   exit
