Feature Description

This release supports the upf-ingress interface, which the UPF requires for user plane service to start. The user plane service must be associated with GTP-U service. This can be achieved using the associate gtpu-service CLI command in User Plane Service configuration mode.


Note

To enable upf-ingress CLI, you need the require upf CLI on the UPF. However, to enable the require upf CLI, you need the UPF license.

Configuring UPF Ingress Interface Type Support

To associate the GTPU service with the User Plane Service, use the following configuration:


configure 
   context context_name 
      user-plane-service service_name 
         [ no ] associate gtpu-service gtpu_service_name upf-ingress 
         end 

NOTES:

  • associate gtpu-service gtpu_service_name : Associates the GTP-U service with the user plane service.

  • upf-ingress : Configures the interface type as UPF ingress.

Verifying the UPF Ingress Interface Type Feature Configuration

Run the show user-plane-service all command to view the output.


[local]qvpc-si# show user-plane-service all

NOTES:

  • Only one of the interface types pgw-ingress or upf-ingress can be configured in a single user plane service.
