Failure to Create UPF Container

[ChoB100]

I cannot create a UPF container using kubectl.

I followed the free5gc official tutorial below.

This is my 5th try, but it's not working, what can I do to fix this?

I have the same problem. I tried "kubectl describe --namespace free5gc pod [pod name] and got:

Normal AddedInterface 1s multus Add eth0 [10.244.0.169/24] from cbr0 Normal AddedInterface 1s multus Add n3 [10.100.50.233/29] from free5gc/n3network-free5gc-v1-free5gc-upf

seems that I am having problems adding n3 and eht0 (perhaps n6) interfaces.

I haven't setup ueransim (RAN) part, I think that's where the n3 problem comes from. But not sure about the eth0. Should I change it to a network interface name that is on the actual server?

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Update: I think this might have something to do with network configuration. I have problem with eth1 configuration for N6 interface.

I've created video on Complete Installation and basic test of this 5GC from scratch. You may look into this video.

@devopsjourney23 what is your host machine based on and what hyperv are you using?

[devopsjourney23]

@krupalb , I've tried Host Machine as both Windows and Ubuntu. Also Oracle VirtualBox/VMware works fine. If you still have any issues, ping me, will try to look into this together.

[mickwubs97]

I solved this issue by using microk8s and setting the gateway IP of n6 network to the IP of the gateway of the host interface(not the IP of the actual interface). I tried a microk8s deployment on Ubuntu20.04 VM running on VirtualBox7.0 with a second interface on K8s node, the process is documented here.

Also you may use different VM for UPF, in my case i wanted to use it for commercial test and i created different VM for UPF and deployed all CP function on kubernetees
