Adding a Static IP Address Range
This section describes the sequence of operations for adding a static IP address range in SMF.
-
If new static IP address range is added to a single stack IP pool, the IP address ranges are split according to the configuration and associated with available UPFs in load sharing manner.
-
Similar to initial association, intermediate association is also done based on the number of IP addresses against the number of configured UPFs.
-
If UPF is already registered with IPAM:
-
Route addition is triggered, or else
-
No immediate action is taken
-
-
-
If a dual stack pool is configured, all IP address ranges, both IPv4 and IPv6 are associated with the UPF, which is the least loaded.
-
If UPF is already registered with IPAM:
-
Route addition is triggered, or else
-
No immediate action is taken
