DUL Open5GS configuration¶

The DUL doesn't need any special Open5GS configuration. The eNodeB and cells must be present with the correct mcc/mnc/tac settings in the mme.yaml which has been configured via the managed objects.
Attach are example configuration files matching the enodeB/cell configuration on DUL 20 Configuration.

network configuration¶

The machine hosting the Open5GS must be direct connected to the side network (TN A/TN B) and have the following IPs configured:

• example /etc/network/interfaces.conf

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 169.254.1.3/16
        gateway 169.254.1.15

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
        address 10.23.0.1/24
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.2/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.3/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.4/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.5/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.6/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.7/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.8/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.9/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.10/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.11/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.12/24 dev eth1
        post-up ip a a 10.23.0.13/24 dev eth1

auto eth2
iface eth2 inet dhcp
        post-up iptables -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE -s 10.45.0.0/16 -t nat

Open5GS¶

Open5GS was installed following the Quickstart manual
The configuration was tested on debian buster with the following versions.

Running a NTP server¶

The eNodeB is configured to use 10.23.0.2/10.23.0.3 as NTP server.
For testing chrony was used using the attached chrony.conf.

apt-get install chrony
