Create Load Profile

Use the following sample configuration to create the load profile. This profile defines the parameters that are required to calculate the load of SMF.

config 
   profile load load_profile_name 
      load-calc-frequency load_calculation_interval 
      load-fetch-frequency load_fetching_time 
      advertise [ interval lci_broadcast_interval | change-factor lci_change_factor ] 
      interface gtpc action advertise 
      end 

NOTES:

  • profile load load_profile_name : Specify the load profile name. load_profile_name must be an alphanumeric string.

    Use the load profile for system load calculation and LCI broadcast.

  • load-calc-frequency load_calculation_interval : Specify the system load calculation interval in seconds.

    load_calculation_interval must be an integer in the range of 5-3600. Default value is 10 seconds.

  • load-fetch-frequency load_fetching_time : Specify the time interval at which service pod fetches load from cache pod.

    load_fetching_time must be an integer in the range of 5-3600. Default value is 10 seconds.

  • advertise interval lci_broadcast_interval : Specify the periodic interval for sending LCI to the GTP-C peers.

    lci_broadcast_interval must be an integer in the range of 0-3600. Value 0 indicates that the LCI is sent in all the messages. Default value is 300 seconds.

  • advertise change-factor lci_change_factor : Specify the minimum change between current LCI and last indicated LCI, after which the advertising occurs.

    lci_change_factor must be an integer in the range of 1-20. Default value is 5.

  • interface gtpc action advertise : Specify to enable LCI publish or broadcast on GTP-C interface. By default, this option is disabled.
