Serving Gateway GTP Node


When emulating Serving Gateway (SGW) in a MME Nodal test case, Landslide connects to the MME using the S11 interface, sends session information to the MME as necessary (such as at MS session establishment) to emulate a flow and responds to requests from the MME.

In MME Nodal Node test case, SGW GTP User Node is available to process User plane traffic when you select SGW/PGW Node Emulation on the Test Configuration tab to decouple control and user plane traffic.

In SMF Nodal Node test case, SGW Control Node and User Node are available to process Control / User plane traffic when you select Inter-tech(5g/4g) handover procedure on the Test Configuration .

Target SGW GTP User Node is available  to process User plane traffic during mobility testing when SGW Relocation and SGW/PGW Node Emulation on the Test Configuration.

NOTEs:

  • Advanced settings is not available on SGW GTP User Node/Target SGW GTP User Node.
  • For SGW User and S5 SGW Control/User test nodes (Primary and Alternate), “the Outbound Traffic Port setting from SGW Control Node is used”.

Dual Stack Support

Use Dual Stack to return both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses when requested. Dual Stack is available for your selection only when you select SGW/PGW Node Emulation or SGW Relocation and SGW/PGW Node Emulation on the Test Configuration tab.

Primary Node

Tcl Parameter:

SgwUserDualStackEn
MobSgwUserDualStackEn
SgwUserAddr

Alternate

Available when you select Dual Stack Support.  Select Alternate Node Address.

Alternate Node

Tcl Parameter:  

SgwUserAltAddr
MobSgwUserAltAddr

 

The Alternate Node Address you enter must be of IPv6 format if the Physical Interface address type you select for the node is an IPv4 address and vice versa.

Ethernet Configuration

With an Ethernet node, you can define:

Tcl Parameter: SgwControlAddr

Tcl Parameter: SgwS5ControlAddr

For SGW User and S5 SGW Control/User test nodes (Primary and Alternate), “the Outbound Traffic Port setting from SGW Control Node is used”.
