Feature Description

UPF supports GTP-U ingress interfaces to initiate the user plane service.

The user plane service associates with the GTP-U service using the associate gtpu-service CLI command in User Plane Service configuration mode. To enable the upf-ingress command, you must configure the require upf command on the UPF. You need the UPF license to enable the require upf command.

UPF Ingress Interface Type Configuration

Configuring UPF Ingress Interface Type

Configuration Example

The following is an example configuration:

associate gtpu-service n3-ingress upf-ingress
associate gtpu-service n3-ingress upf-ingress interface-type n3
associate gtpu-service n9-ingress upf-ingress interface-type n9
associate gtpu-service s5-ingress upf-ingress interface-type s5
associate gtpu-service s8-ingress upf-ingress interface-type s8

Verifying the UPF Ingress Interface Type Configuration

To verify the configuration, use the following command:

show user-plane-service all

The show user-plane-service all command displays user-plane service information.

The following is a sample output of this command:

show user-plane-service all
Service name                        : user-plane-service 
  Service-Id                        : 7 
  Context                           : EPC2-UP 
  Status                            : NOT STARTED 
  UPF Ingress GTPU Service          : sx-gtpu-service 
  UPF Ingress N3 Interface Type GTPU Service: n3-ingress  
  UPF Ingress N9 Interface Type GTPU Service: n9-ingress  
  UPF Ingress S5U Interface Type GTPU Service: s5u-ingress  
  UPF Ingress S8U Interface Type GTPU Service: s8u-ingress  
  UPF Egress GTPU Service           : Not defined 
  SGW Ingress GTPU Service          : SGW-Ingress 
  SGW Egress GTPU Service           : SGW-Egress 
  Control Plane Tunnel GTPU Service : control_gtpu 
  Sx Service                        : sxu 
  Control Plane Group               : g1 
  Fast-Path service                 : Disabled

NOTES:

  • The UPF configures only one of the interface types, pgw-ingress or upf-ingress in a single user plane service.
