Feature Description


Note


This feature is Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) integrated.

The Monitor Subscriber and Protocol feature supports the debugging functionality.

Monitor Subscriber

The Monitor Subscriber feature captures all the transactional logs for a given subscriber over a specified period of time across all the Kubernetes pods. It also supports the simultaneous monitoring of multiple subscribers on a given cluster. This information allows to track all the events that had occurred for a given subscriber when the subscriber was coming up or going down.

To configure Monitor Subscriber, see Configuring Monitor Subscriber

Monitor Protocol

The Monitor Protocol feature replicates the packets from different protocol endpoints of cnBNG and sends it to the OAM pod. There two levels of packet replication that occur:

  • First replication dumps only the basic packet information

  • Second replication dumps the full packet with details like headers, keys of subscriber, and so on.

This feature captures all ingress and egress packets on the cnBNG protocol pods.

To configure Monitor Protocol, see Configuring Monitor Protocol

Configuring Monitor Subscriber and Protocol

This section describes how to configure subscriber and protocol monitoring.

Configuring the Monitor Subscriber and Protocol feature involves the following procedures:

  • Configuring Monitor Subscriber

  • Configuring Monitor Protocol

  • Copying Log Files

  • Viewing Log Files

Configuring Monitor Subscriber

Use the following commands to enable the monitoring of a subscriber.

monitor subscriber supi subcriber_id capture-duration duration_in_seconds  

NOTES:

  • supi subcriber_id : Enables monitoring of subscribers based on the subscriber identifier (supi). For example: 0000.4096.3e4a.

    The subscriber-id format supported is as follows:

    <mac-adress>@<upf>: This specifies a particular subscriber with the given MAC address from a specific User Plane function (UPF).

    Wildcard subscriber-id is also supported. For example:

    • *@<upf>: This specifies all subscribers from a specific UPF.

    • <mac>@*: This specfies all subscribers having the given MAC and from any UPF.

    • *: This specifies all subscribers from all UPFs.

  • capture-duration : Specifies the duration in seconds during which the monitor subscriber is enabled. The duration_in_seconds can range from 1 to 2147483647 seconds. The default is 300.

  • Other sub-options that are present in the CLI command are not supported

Configuring Monitor Protocol

Use the following commands to enable protocol monitoring for a subscriber.

monitor protocol interface pcap_interface capture-duration duration_in_seconds  

NOTES:

  • interface pcap_interface : Specifies the packet capture (PCAP) interface. The valid PCAP interfaces are: Packet Forwarding Control Protocol (PFCP), GPRS Tunnelling Protocol User Plane (GTP-U), and Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS).

  • capture-duration duration_in_seconds : Specifies the duration in seconds during which the monitor protocol is enabled. The duration_in_seconds can range from 1 to 2147483647 seconds. The default is 300.

  • cnBNG uses a custom GTPU packet format. Therefore, packet decode errors are displayed on the screen because the standard decode plugin does not support the cnBNG format. Capture the packet to PCAP and use the cnBNG specific LUA plugin during Wireshark decode.

  • Interface names must be entered manually and must match the name mentioned in the description, else the packet capture may fail.

  • Only one physical-interface (NIC) packet capture is supported. For PFCP and GTPU this limitation is not applicable as they always run-on a single interface (VIP). However for RADIUS, certain deployments may use different VIPs for Auth/Acct/COA, leading to different physical NICs. Due to the infrastructure limitation, packet-capture can run on only one of the physical-NICs.

Example

monitor protocol interface pfcp

Note


  • While receiving CoA or DM packets, the RADIUS pod does not have the subscriber-information, instead the information is available only with the BNG-SM pod. Therefore, the packet related session programming N4-SESS-UPDATE TX and RX is dumped on the screen first followed by the CoA or DM TX and RX dump.

  • Packet dumps are not captured for PFCP session report request and response.
