  • Enables SMF to support the new configuration under the DNN profile to enable mapping of the UE-requested DNN to IP pool DNN.

  • Sends the mapped DNN over GRPC to the Resource Manager functionality under Node Manager service for IP allocation.

  • Supports the new configuration for IP Pool DNN over the virtual DNN with Redundancy Manager, if present

  • Sends the UE-requested DNN when both the new configuration for IP pool and the virtual DNN are not present.
