Configuration in UPF and SMF in multiple cluster case #77

Closed balti09 closed 1 year ago

balti09 commented 1 year ago

Hello, How can UPF and SMF communicate if they were deployed in different clusters ?

raoufkh commented 1 year ago

The current implementation relies on macvlan The underlying network is completely independent of Kubernetes. If macvlan master interfaces are within the same network then SMF and UPF will be able to cummunicate with each other. Look at this tutorial

Is there any way to connect them using Kuberetes services like in the case of amf and gnb? Because I deploy the userplane in k8s cluster in azure and the control plane in GKE. PS: the connection between amf and gNB has been done successfully.

Hi,

I have a similar question.

Is there a way to make the entire 5G system work, including the UPF and Control Plane, when they are deployed in separate clusters that are not on the same network? I'm considering whether it's feasible to expose the network functions using public IPs through Kubernetes services.

Thanks!
