Configuration to change the state of UPF from Pending-Active to Active
2021.02.0
First introduced.
2020.02.0
Feature Description
The 1:1 UPF Redundancy feature, for 5G deployment, supports the detection of a failed User Plane Function (UPF) and seamlessly
handles the functions of the failed UPF. Each of the Active UPF has a dedicated Standby UPF. The 1:1 UPF Redundancy architecture
is based on the UPF to UPF Interchassis Session Recovery (ICSR) connection.
How it Works
The 5G-UPF deployment leverages the ICSR framework infrastructure for checkpointing and switchover of the UPF node as shown
in the following figure. The Active UPF communicates to its dedicated Standby UPF through the Service Redundancy Protocol
(SRP) link that is provisioned between the UPFs.
The Session Management Function (SMF) node does not have the Standby UPF information that is available in the UPF group configuration.
Therefore, the SMF is not aware of the UPF redundancy configuration and the switchover event among the UPFs.
The Active UPF communicates to the SMF through the N4 interface address configured in the UPF. The Standby UPF takes over
the same Sx/N4 address when it transitions to Active during the switchover event. This implies that the Sx/N4 interface is
SRP-activated and is in line with the existing configuration method, therefore UPF switchover is transparent to the SMF.
To make redundancy fully compliant, it addresses the following dependencies on the SRP-based ICSR in the 5G environment.
Configuration Synchronization (or, Replica Configuration on Standby UPF)
Sx/N4 Association Checkpoint
Sx/N4 Link Monitoring
Besides the dependencies listed, the UPF implements data collection and checkpoint procedures specific to the UPF node. For
example, checkpointing for IP-pool chunks. The UPF integrates these procedures into the existing ICSR checkpointing framework.
Independent Configuration of Standby UPF
After UPF is up with base configuration (for example, services, contexts, interfaces, and so on), the rest of the configuration
(for example, ACS and policy-related configuration) is done through an Ops-center or Redundancy and Configuration Manager
(RCM) POD. This configuration is common for both SMF and UPF policies. For SRP redundancy to work, the Active and Standby
UPF has same configuration, except SRP-related configuration with which SRP connections are established between the Active
and Standby UPF. The RCM configures Active and Standby UPF independently.
BFD Monitor Between Active UP and Standby UP
The Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) monitors the SRP link between the Active UPF and Standby UPF for a fast failure-detection
and switchover. When the Standby UPF detects a BFD failure in this link, it takes over as the Active UPF.
The BFD link can be single-hop or multi-hop.
To configure the BFD monitor, between the Active UP and Standby UP, see Configuring BFD Monitoring Between Active UPF and Standby UPF.

Sample Configuration for Single-Hop BFD Monitoring
When SRP VPP monitor is configured, the UPF chassis is SRP Active and if the VPP subsystem fails, then SRP initiates switchover
to Standby UPF. Currently, VPP health monitoring is limited to heartbeat mechanism between NPUMgr task and VPP process.
To configure the VPP monitor, see Configuring VPP Monitor on Active UPF and Standby UPF.
Sx/N4 Association Checkpoint
Whenever an Active UPF initiates an Sx/N4 association to SMF, the Standby UPF checkpoints this data. This maintains the association
information even after the UPF switchover.
The Sx/N4 heartbeat messages are sent and the Active UPF responds back even after back-to-back UPF switchovers.
Sx/N4 Monitor
It is critical to monitor the Sx/N4 interface between the UPF and SMF. The SRP monitoring is enabled on Sx/N4 interface and
the existing Sx/N4 heartbeat mechanism is leveraged to detect the monitor failure. The Sx/N4 module on Active UPF, on detecting
the failure, informs the SRP VPNMgr to trigger UPF switchover event so that the Standby UPF takes over.
Note
Sx/N4 monitoring is available only in the UPF.
It is important to ensure that the SMF Sx/N4 heartbeat timeout is higher than the UPF Sx/N4 heartbeat timeout plus UPF ICSR
switchover time. This is to ensure that the SMF does not detect the Sx/N4 path failure during a UPF switchover because of
the UPF Sx/N4 monitor failure.
The Standby UPF itself has no independent connectivity to the SMF. The Active UPF Sx/N4 context is replicated to the Standby
UPF so that it is ready to takeover during SRP switchover. This implies that when the Active UPF has switched over to Standby
because of Sx/N4 monitor failure, the new Standby has no way of knowing if the UPF to SMF link is working. To prevent a switchback
of the new Standby to Active state again due to Sx/N4 monitor failure in new Active, use the disallow-switchover-on-peer-monitor-fail keyword in the monitor sx CLI command.
After a chassis becomes Standby due to Sx/N4 monitoring failure, the Sx/N4 failure status is not reset even if Sx/N4 up checkpoint
is received from the new Active UPF. This is to prevent the new Active to cause an unplanned switchback again due to Sx/N4
monitor failure when the previous cause of switchover itself was Sx/N4 monitor failure. This prevents back-to-back switchovers
when SMF is down. The Sx/N4 monitor failure status must be manually reset when the operator is convinced that the network
connectivity is normal. To reset, use the new srp reset-sx-fail CLI command (see Resetting Sx/N4 Monitor Failure) in the Standby chassis.
To configure the Sx/N4 monitor, see Configuring Sx/N4 Monitoring on the Active UPF and Standby UPF.
Sx/N4 Monitor—Pending-Active
The UPF chassis can turn into Pending-Active state for one of the following reasons:
When Sx/N4 heartbeat times out during SMF upgrade, the Sx/N4 connection is terminated.
So, Sx/N4 monitoring failure triggers ICSR switchover in UPF. This switchover causes the
old Standby UPF to transition to Pending-Active state. The UPF in Pending-Active state
neither receives any Sx/N4 heartbeats from SMF nor any subscriber traffic. As a result,
the UPF remains in Pending-Active state indefinitely and can't be utilized without a
manual intervention.
When appropriate procedure to upgrade UPF is not followed, one of the UPF may end up in
Pending-Active state. Also, if SMF goes down during the UPF upgrade or if the UPF
switchover takes more time than the SMF heartbeat timeout, then one of the UPF remains
in Pending-Active state indefinitely.
When Sx/N4 session times out between SMF and UPF due to network issues, and if a UPF ICSR switchover happens almost simultaneously
(Double fault scenario), the UPF in Pending-Active state doesn't transition to active state.
Whenever a UPF chassis turns Pending-Active, start a timer with a callback which forcefully transitions the UPF from Pending-Active
to active state. Before forcing the transition, check if the SRP link is up and if the SRP peer is in standby state. If not,
restart the timer. The duration of the timer is configurable using force-pactv-to-actv-timeout value_seconds CLI command (see Changing UPF state from Pending-Active to Active section for configuration details). When this CLI command is not configured, the UPF remains in Pending-Active state indefinitely.
BGP Monitor
Configure BGP peer monitor and peer group monitors for the next-hop routers from UPF (both Gi and Gn side). This is the existing
ICSR configuration. BGP may run with BFD assist to detect fast BGP peer failure.
To configure BGP monitoring and flag BPG monitoring failure, see Configuring BGP Status Monitoring Between Each UP and Next-Hop Router.
UPF Session Checkpoints
The Active chassis sends a collection of UPF data as checkpoints to the peer Standby chassis in the following scenarios:
New call setup
For every state change in the call
Periodically for accounting buckets
On receiving these checkpoints, the Standby chassis acts on the data and updates the necessary information either at the call,
node, or instance level.
VPN IP Pool Checkpoints
During Sx/N4 Association, the IP pool that is allocated to each of the UPF is sent by SMF to the respective UPF. The VPNMgr
receives this message in the UPF and checkpoints the same information to the Standby UPF when the SRP is configured.
The IP pool information is also sent during the SRP VPNMgr restart and during the SRP link down and up scenarios.
Validation of the presence of IP pool information in the Standby is vital before switchover. If the IP pool information is
not present, then route advertisement is not possible. Therefore, traffic does not reach the UPF.
External Audit and PFD Configuration Audit Interaction
External Audit management is done in Active UPF. The Session Manager gets a start and complete notification of the Configuration
Audit. The Session Manager does not start the External Audit if Configuration Audit is in progress. If the Configuration Audit
start-notification arrives when the External Audit is already underway, then the Session Manager raises a flag such that the
External Audit restarts when it completes. Restarting the External Audit is necessary because it does not achieve its purpose
if it occurs when Configuration Audit is already underway.
Zero Accounting Loss for User Plane Function
Zero accounting loss feature is implemented on the User Plane Function (UPF) so that accounting-data or billing loss is reduced
from 18 seconds, which is the default checkpoint time from Active UPF to Standby UPF, or for the configured accounting checkpoint
time.
This change in UPF is to support the Gz, Gy, VoGx, and RADIUS URRs. Only planned switchover is supported for zero accounting
loss or URR data counters loss. This feature doesn't impact the current ICSR framework or the way checkpointing is done and
recovered.
The Sx/N4 usage report is blocked during the “pending active state” until the chassis
becomes Active.
Early PDU Recovery for UPF Session Recovery
Early PDU Recovery feature overcomes the earlier limitation of Session Recovery feature
wherein it didn't prioritize the CRRs that were selected for recovery. All the CRRs were
fetched from the AAAMgr and then the calls were recovered sequentially. The time taken to
fetch all the CRRs was a major factor in the perceived delay during session recovery. When a
failure occurred, the delay was sometimes long if there were many sessions in a Session
Manager. Also, since the calls were recovered in no particular order, the idle sessions were
sometimes recovered before active sessions.
Note
The Early PDU Recovery feature can recover a maximum of 5-percent sessions.
Session Prioritization during Recovery
Without this functionality, the Session Recovery function didn't prioritize the sessions
selected for recovery and loops through all the calls in the call recovery list, and are
recovered sequentially when the session recovery is triggered.
As part of Session Prioritization during Recovery, a separate skip list is maintained only
for priority calls so that these records can be sent from AAAMgr immediately without going
through the loop, thus leading to quicker recovery of the priority calls and reducing the
data outage time.
There are two types of sessions at User Plane—Prioritized sessions and normal sessions. Session is considered to be prioritized
session based on message priority flag received from SMF and it's recovered first followed by normal calls. These prioritized
sessions also take priority in case of early PDU handling. The early PDU of normal calls initiates recovery only when all
prioritized sessions are recovered.
In case of critical flush (GR), checkpoints for prioritized sessions are sent first
followed by the normal calls. The data of all the calls (both normal and prioritized) are
allowed during switchover.
Note
The SMF is responsible to set the priority flags for all the calls. The UPF uses the priority call details that are received
from the SMF for the Session Prioritization feature.
Configuring 1:1 UPF Redundancy
The following sections provide information about the CLI
commands available in support of the feature.
Configuring BFD Monitoring Between Active UPF and Standby UPF
Use the following configuration to configure Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) monitoring on the Active UPF and Standby
UPF. Configure this command in the SRP Configuration Mode.
no: Disables BFD monitoring on the Active and Standby UPF.
context context_name : Specifies the context that is used. It refers to the context where the BFD peer is configured (SRP context).
context_name must be an existing context expressed as an alphanumeric string of 1 through 79 characters.
ipv4 _address | ipv6_address: Defines the IP address of the BFD neighbor to be monitored, entered using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal
notation.
It refers to the IP address of the configured BFD (ICSR) peer.
chassis-to-chassis | chassis-to-router:
chassis-to-chassis: BFD runs between primary and backup chassis on non-SRP links.
chassis-to-router: BFD runs between chassis and router.
Caution
Don't use the chassis-to-router keyword for BFD monitoring on the SRP link between the Active UPF and the Standby UPF.
This command is disabled by default.
Configuring BGP Status Monitoring Between Each UPF and Next-Hop Router
Use the following commands to configure Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) monitoring between each UPF and next-hop router. The
command is configured in the SRP Configuration Mode.
bgp context bgp-session-context-name: Specifies the context where BGP peer is configured. bgp-session-context-name specifies the context string.
nexthop-router-ipv4-address | nexthop-router-ipv6-address: Specifies the configured BGP peer IPv4 or IPv6 address to monitor.
vrf bgp-session-vrf-name: Specifies the BGP VPN Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instance. bgp-session-vrf-name specifies the VRF name.
group group-number : Specifies the BGP peer group where the BGP peer should be included. group-number specifies the group number.
On implementing this keyword, the behavior is as follows:
If any BGP peer in that group is up, the BGP peer group is up.
Omitting group configuration for a BGP monitor includes that monitor in group 0.
BGP group 0 monitors in a context from an implicit group. Each context forms a separate BGP group 0 implicit monitor group.
If any BGP peer group is down, BGP monitor is down.
This command is disabled by default.
Alternate Algorithm to Flag BGP monitoring failure
In this release, an alternate (new) algorithm is introduced to flag BGP monitoring failure.
Use the following commands to flag BGP monitor failure on a single BGP peer (User Plane Function) failure. This command is
configured in the SRP Configuration Mode.
configurecontext context_nameservice-redundancy-protocol[ no ] monitor bgp exclusive-failover end
NOTES:
no: Disables flagging of BGP monitor failure on a single BGP peer failure.
On implementing the new exclusive-failover keyword, the behavior is as follows:
BGP peer group is Up if any BGP peer in that group is Up.
Including a BGP peer in group 0 is same as making it non-group (omitting group).
BGP monitor is down if any BGP peer group or any non-group BGP peer is down.
This command is disabled by default.
Configuring Sx/N4 Monitoring on the Active UPF and Standby UPF
Use the following configuration to configure Sx/N4 monitoring on the Active UPF and Standby UPF. This command is configured
in the SRP Configuration Mode.
no: Disables Sx/N4 monitoring on the Active and Standby UPF.
context context_name : Specifies the context of the Sx/N4 service.
context_name must be an existing context expressed as an alphanumeric string of 1 through 79 characters.
bind-address { ipv4 _address | ipv6_address }: Defines the service IP address of the Sx/N4 service, entered using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal
notation.
Note
The IP address family of the bind-address and peer-address must be same.
peer-address { ipv4 _address | ipv6_address }: Defines the IP address of the Sx/N4 peer, entered using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal notation.
disallow-switchover-on-peer-monitor-fail:
Prevents the switchback of the UPF to Active state when the working status of the UPF to SMF link is unknown.
It's possible to implement this CLI command multiple times for monitoring multiple N4/Sx connections.
The Sx/N4 monitor state goes down when any of the monitored Sx/N4 connections are down.
This command is disabled by default.
A maximum of 18 peer nodes can be configured.
Configuring VPP Monitor on Active UPF and Standby UPF
Use the following configuration to configure Vector Packet Processing (VPP) monitor to trigger UPF switchover on the Active
UPF if VPP goes down. This command is configured in the SRP Configuration Mode.
configurecontext context_nameservice-redundancy-protocolmonitor system vpp delay-period secondsend
NOTES:
If previously configured, use the no monitor system vpp CLI command to disable VPP monitoring on the Active and Standby UPF.
vpp delay-period seconds : Specifies the delay period in seconds for a switchover, after a VPP failure. seconds must be in the range of 0 through 300.
If the delay period is a value greater than zero (0), then the switchover is initiated after the specified delay period when
VPP fails. The last VPP status notification within the delay period is the final trigger for switchover action. The default
value is 0 seconds, which initiates an immediate switchover.
The need for delay is to address the scenario wherein the VPP is temporarily down and the revival is in process. This implies
that a switchover may not be necessary.
This command is disabled by default.
Preventing User Plane Function Switchback
Use the following configuration to prevent the switchback of the new Standby UPF to Active state again due to Sx/N4 monitor
failure in the new Active.
configurecontext context_nameservice-redundancy-protocolmonitor sx disallow-switchover-on-peer-monitor-fail timeout seconds end
Use either of the following CLIs to allow switchback of the new Standby UPF to Active state.
no monitor sx disallow-switchover-on-peer-monitor-fail
disallow-switchover-on-peer-monitor-fail [ timeout seconds ]: Prevents the switchback of the UPF to Active state when the working status of the UPF to SMF link is unknown.
timeout seconds: Timeout after which the switchback is allowed even if the Sx/N4 failure status is not reset in the Standby peer. The valid
values range from 0 through 2073600 (24 days).
Note
Assigning 0 seconds as the timeout allows unplanned switchover.
If timeout keyword is not specified, the Active chassis waits indefinitely for the Sx/N4 failure status to be reset in the Standby peer.
The default configuration is to allow unplanned switchover due to Sx/N4 monitor failure in all conditions.
Note
Manual planned switchover is allowed irrespective of whether this CLI is configured or not.
Preventing Dual Active Error Scenarios
Use the following CLI configuration in CP to prevent dual Active error scenarios for UPF 1:1 redundancy.
sx-reassociation disabled: Disables UP Sx reassociation when the association already exists with the CP.
Resetting Sx/N4 Monitor Failure
Use the following configuration only on the Standby chassis to reset the Service Redundancy Protocol (SRP) Sx/N4 monitor failure
information. This command is configured in the Exec Mode.
srp reset-sx-fail
Changing UPF State from Pending-Active to Active
Use the following configuration to change the UPF chassis state from Pending-Active to Active.
value_seconds: Specifies the timeout value in seconds and must be in the range of 1-300.
Use the show config context context_name CLI command to verify the configuration.

L2 ICSR Support
Feature Description
UPF supports Layer 2-based (L2) ICSR in a two-server architecture to disambiguate packet forwarding between Active and Standby
UPFs. UPF uses Gratuitous Address Resolution Protocol (GARP) and Unsolicited Neighbor Advertisement messages to achieve L2
ICSR.
L2 ICSR between SRP peers is configurable in the SRP context. UPF also configures a loopback interface under the same subnet
as that of the physical interface. UPF supports SRP BFD monitoring to avoid the Active to Active scenario.
SRP Loopback Interface
SRP loopback interface is the loopback interface for Service IP (N3) or Next-hop IP for IP-Pools (N6). The IP addresses of
these loopback interfaces must be on the same subnet as the ethernet interfaces of the context. The SRP loopback interfaces
have the same IP address on both Active and Standby UPFs.
When UPF is Standby, SRP loopback interfaces will not send ARP reply or GARP packets. For IPv6, the UPF does not respond with
the Solicited or the Unsolicited Neighbor Advertisement message.
When UPF is Standby, SRP loopback interfaces are enabled with an IP address attached inside boxer so that the UPF services
bound to these interfaces remain in running state.
When UPF transitions from any other state to the Active state, the SRP loopback interfaces send out GARP packets. For IPv6,
the UPF sends Unsolicited Neighbor Advertisement messages.
The following figure illustrates the 3RU wiring diagram for non-bonded interfaces.
How it Works
UPF directly connects gNB on N3 router or Server on N6 router in the same subnet. UPF ICSR will not be visible to gNB/N3 and
Server/N6.
The L2 switch supports BFD. On all N3 and N6 subnets, the switch must have an IP address.
UPF requires Chassis-Chassis (C-R) BFD and Chassis-Router (C-R) BFD for the L2 ICSR solution to work. To avoid the Active-Active
state, BFD runs between C-C and C-R. C-C BFD must have a higher timeout value than C-R BFD.
For a two-leaf network design and non-bonded UPF interfaces, each UPF connects to a separate leaf. The IP addresses of the
L2 switch are part of the leaf.
The following figure illustrates the high-level diagram of L2 switch wiring for non-bonded interfaces.

NOTES:
For C-R BFDs going from "Not-All-Up" to "All-Up", a delay is introduced in SRP State processing to allow all C-C BFDs to reach
steady state.
To avoid the dual-active scenario, ensure that the states in row 3 of the above table do not occur in both UPFs. This must
not happen in a properly functioning and configured system.
Configuring L2 ICSR in SRP Context
To enable or disable L2 ICSR between SRP peers, use the following configuration:
configurecontextcontext_nameservice-redundancy-protocoll2-icsr [ disable | enable ] end
NOTES:
disable: Disable L2 ICSR between SRP peers. This is the default setting.
enable: Enable L2 ICSR between SRP peers.
Configuring C-C and C-R BFD from Primary and Backup Chassis
To configure the C-C and C-R BFD from a Primary and Backup Chassis use the following configuration. The C-C BFD configures
as multi-hop to give a different timeout value than the C-R BFD.
