Adding the UPF
This section describes the sequence of operations for adding the UPF.
-
When a UPF is added, NodeMgr sends the list of IPs to IPAM.
-
When new static IP pool or static IP address range is configured, this feature enables route association for UPFs based on load balancing model.
NoteThe same procedure is applicable when a new or existing DNN is added to a new or existing UPF respectively.
-
To redistribute existing static IP pools or ranges to the new UPF, use the following procedure:
-
Mark a pool/range offline
-
Clear the subscribers
-
Delete IP pool or range
-
Add the IP pool or range again.
This step allocates the chunks to the new UPF.
