To build a PDR (Packet Detection Rule) and FAR (Forwarding Action Rule) for forwarding UE DHCP packets between the SMF (Session Management Function) and UPF (User Plane Function) in a 5G network, you need to follow certain steps. Below is an example of how you might implement this conceptually in pseudocode or as comments, since actual implementation would depend on the specific APIs and libraries used in your environment.
Pseudocode Example
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
// Define structures for PDR and FAR
struct PDR {
int pdrID;
std::string filterCriteria; // E.g., match based on protocol type, source/destination IPs, etc.
// Other necessary fields...
};
struct FAR {
int farID;
std::string action; // E.g., forward, drop, redirect
// Other necessary fields...
};
// Function to build PDR for DHCP packets
PDR buildPDRForDHCP(int pdrID) {
PDR pdr;
pdr.pdrID = pdrID;
// Set filter criteria for DHCP packets (UDP port 67/68)
pdr.filterCriteria = "UDP_PORT(67 OR 68)";
// Additional configuration can be added here
return pdr;
}
// Function to build FAR for forwarding DHCP packets
FAR buildFARForDHCP(int farID) {
FAR far;
far.farID = farID;
// Specify action to forward the packet to the appropriate destination
far.action = "FORWARD";
// Additional forwarding parameters can be added here
return far;
}
int main() {
int pdrID = 1; // Example PDR ID
int farID = 1; // Example FAR ID
// Build PDR and FAR for DHCP packet handling
PDR dhcpPDR = buildPDRForDHCP(pdrID);
FAR dhcpFAR = buildFARForDHCP(farID);
std::cout << "Created PDR with ID: " << dhcpPDR.pdrID
<< ", Filter Criteria: " << dhcpPDR.filterCriteria << std::endl;
std::cout << "Created FAR with ID: " << dhcpFAR.farID
<< ", Action: " << dhcpFAR.action << std::endl;
// Further processing would go here...
return 0;
}
Explanation:
Structures: Define
PDR
andFAR
structures that hold relevant information like IDs, filtering criteria, and actions.Build Functions:
buildPDRForDHCP
: This function creates aPDR
tailored for DHCP packets by specifying UDP ports 67 and 68 as filter criteria.buildFARForDHCP
: This function sets up a correspondingFAR
that specifies what action should be taken with matching packets (e.g., forwarding them).
Main Function: In the
main()
function, both rules are instantiated and printed out.
Notes:
- Actual implementations will require interaction with networking libraries or frameworks that manage these rules within an NFV/SDN architecture.
- This is a high-level representation; in practice, you’ll also deal with error handling, validations, communication with other components via API calls or message queues, etc.
- Be sure to adapt the code based on your specific programming language and network architecture requirements.
