Configuring Network Element Profile
Network element profile represents peer IP (UPF) profile and has the following configurations:
-
Peer address and Port configuration
-
Peer-supported DNNs or APNs. This configuration helps in UPF selection.
UPF selection considers priority and capacity parameters.
upf-group-profile indicates the UPF group to which it belongs.
To configure this feature, use the following configuration:
config
profile network-element upf upf_name
node-id node_id_value
n4-peer-address ipv6 ipv6_address
n4-peer-address ipv4 ipv4_address
n4-peer-port port_number
dual-stack-transport { true | false }
dnn-list dnn_list
capacity capacity_value
priority priority_value
upf-group-profile upf_group_name
end
NOTES:
-
network-element —Specify the peer network element.
-
upf upf_name—Specify the UPF peer name.
-
node-id node_id_value —Specify the Node ID of the UPF node.
-
n4-peer-address ipv4 ipv4_address —Specify the IPv4 address.
-
n4-peer-address ipv6 ipv6_address —Specify the IPv6 address.
-
n4-peer-port port_number —Specify the N4 peer port number. Must be an integer in the range of 0-65535.
-
dual-stack-transport { true | false } —Enable the dual stack feature that allows you to specify IPv6 or IPv4 address. Specify true to enable this feature.
-
dnn-list dnn_list —Specify the DNN list supported by UPF node.
-
capacity capacity_value —Specify the capacity relative to other UPFs. This is used for load balancing. Must be an integer in the range of 0-65535. Default value is 10.
-
priority priority_value —Specify the static priority relative to other UPFs. This is used for load balancing. Must be an integer in the range of 0-65535. Default value is 1.
-
upf-group-profile upf_group_name —Specify the UPF group profile name. Must be a string.
