Configuring NRF Support for SMF Subscription and Notification

This section describes how to configure the NRF Support for SMF Subscription and Notification feature.

Use the following commands to configure the NRF interface, vip-ip, vip-port, and loopback port to open the server endpoints for the NF status notification.


configure 
   endpoint sbi 
      replicas integer 
         vip-ip ip_address 
            interface nrf 
               vip-ip ip_address 
               vip-port port_number 
               loopbackPort port_number 
               end 

NOTES:

  • endpoint sbi : Specifies the service-based interface (sbi) as the endpoint.

  • replicas : Specifies the number of instances of the service-based interface.

  • vip-ip ip_address : Specifies the virtual IP address of the virtual host.

  • interface nrf : Specifies the interface as NRF.

  • vip-ip ip_address : Specifies the virtual IP address of the virtual host. The SMF uses this as the listening IP address for the status notification.

  • vip-port port_number : Specifies the port number of the virtual host. The SMF uses this as the listening port for the status notification.

  • loopbackPort port_number : Specifies the internal port number of the loopback host. The SMF uses this port for the NF status notification.
