Feature Description

Priorities determine the order in which service requests are dequeued by a server. For example, the priority that client assigns to individual services can range from 0 to 15, where 0 represents the highest priority.

In cnSGW, the cnSGW service sends the Inter-process Communication (IPC) message to the protocol pod for Wireleass Priority Service (WPS) session using Priority IPC Stream.

cnSGW creates the message-priority profile, which can define priority either at global level or at each interface level (PFCP, GTP). You can select the Message Priority value based on:

  • ARP and QCI received in Bearer context in the Create Session Request (CSR), Create Bearer Response (CBR), and Create Session Response.

  • Update Message priority value based on ARP and QCI received in Bearer context in the Update Bearer Request (UBR).

cnSGW supports the following functionalities:

  • WPS sessions per Roaming partner.

  • Exclusion of WPS sessions from overload throttling. For more information, refer to the UCC 5G cnSGWc Configuration and Administration Guide > Sx Load/Overload Control Handling and GTPv2 Load/Overload Support chapters.

  • Session type conflict resolution at cnSGW.

  • WPS sessions handing at UPF over Sxa Interface for collocated subscriber.

  • WPS session monitoring

Operators can monitor the S-GW service statistics for WPS users and users can also monitor number of active WPS sessions.

For more information, refer to the UCC 5G cnSGWc Configuration and Administration Guide > eMPS/WPS Support chapter.
