Open5GS EPC & srsRAN 4G with ZeroMQ UE / RAN Sample Configuration - VPP-UPF(PGW-U) with DPDK

This describes a simple configuration for working Open5GS EPC and VPP-UPF with DPDK. In particular, see here for VPP-UPF with DPDK configuration.

If UPG-VPP built with this instruction does not work well, please try OAI-CN5G-UPF-VPP built with this instruction.

Overview of Open5GS CUPS-enabled EPC Simulation Mobile Network

This describes a simple configuration of C-Plane, VPP-UPF and Data Network Gateway for Open5GS EPC. Note that this configuration is implemented with Virtualbox VMs.

The following minimum configuration was set as a condition.

  • One SGW-U/UPF(PGW-U) and Data Network Gateway
  • One UE and one APN

The built simulation environment is as follows.

The EPC / VPP-UPF / UE / RAN used are as follows.

Each VMs are as follows.

VM1 Open5GS EPC C-Plane 192.168.0.111/24 Ubuntu 22.04 1 2GB 20GB
VM2 Open5GS EPC U-Plane(SGW-U) 192.168.0.112/24 Ubuntu 22.04 1 1GB 20GB
VM-UP UPG-VPP U-Plane(PGW-U) 192.168.0.151/24 Ubuntu 20.04 2 8GB 20GB
VM-DN Data Network Gateway 192.168.0.152/24 Ubuntu 22.04 1 1GB 10GB
VM3 srsRAN 4G ZMQ RAN (eNodeB) 192.168.0.121/24 Ubuntu 22.04 1 2GB 10GB
VM4 srsRAN 4G ZMQ UE 192.168.0.122/24 Ubuntu 22.04 1 2GB 10GB

The network interfaces of each VM are as follows. Note. Do not enable(up) any devices that will be under the control of DPDK. These devices will be enabled and set IP addresses in the init.conf file of VPP-UPF.

Subscriber Information (other information is the same) is as follows.

UE IMSI APN OP/OPc
UE 001010000000100 internet OPc

I registered these information with the Open5GS WebUI. In addition, 3GPP TS 35.208 "4.3 Test Sets" is published by 3GPP as test data for the 3GPP authentication and key generation functions (MILENAGE).

The PDN is as follows.

The following parameters can be used in the logic that selects SGW-U and UPF(PGW-U) as the connection destination by PFCP.

  • APN
  • TAC (Tracking Area Code)
  • e_CellID

For the sake of simplicity, I used only APN this time.

Ping google.com

Specify the UE's TUNnel interface and try ping.

Case for going through PDN 10.45.0.0/16

Run tcpdump on VM-DN and check that the packet goes through N6 (enp0s9).

  • ping google.com on VM4 (UE)
# ping google.com -I tun_srsue -n

In addition to ping, you may try to access the web by specifying the TUNnel interface with curl as follows.

  • curl google.com on VM4 (UE)
# curl --interface tun_srsue google.com

Also, when trying iperf3 client on VM4 (UE), first change the default GW interface to tun_srsue. Below is an example of my VirtualBox VM (VM4).

# ip link set dev enp0s3 down
# ip route add default dev tun_srsue

Next, bind the assigned IP address 10.45.0.2 and run iperf3 client. The following is an example of connecting to iperf3 server running on VM-DN 192.168.16.152.

# iperf3 -B 10.45.0.2 -c 192.168.16.152

You could now connect to the PDN and send any packets on the network using VPP-UPF with DPDK.

Now you could work Open5GS EPC with VPP-UPF. I would like to thank the excellent developers and all the contributors of Open5GS, OpenAir CN 5G for UPF, UPG-VPP, VPP, DPDK and srsRAN 4G.
