Roaming

0. Introduction

Now, we will explain how to install and test 5G Core Roaming using Open5GS. Since we cannot test roaming with UERANSIM, we will use the test environment of Open5GS.

We can only use the LBO method. HR roaming will be implemented at a later date. And also, 5G roaming has been implemented according to the document below.

TS29.500
6 General Functionalities in Service Based Architecture
6.1 Routing Mechanisms
6.1.4.3 Routing across PLMN

Let's start the explanation assuming that the connection test of the UE to this single host has been completed.

1. Your First Roaming with Test Program

Build & Install

We'll start with the roaming-tier3 branch from now on.

$ git clone https://github.com/open5gs/open5gs
$ cd open5gs
$ git checkout roaming-tier3
$ meson build --prefix=`pwd`/install
$ ninja -C build install

Configure FQDN to DNS

For routing to Home PLMN, NRF, AUSF and UDM address in H-PLMN shall use FQDN format, so please edit the /etc/hosts file as follows.

Running V-PLMN 5G Core and H-PLMN 5G Core in the Single Host

5G Core requires root privileges as it uses reserved ports such as http(80) or https(443).

$ sudo ./build/tests/app/5gc -c ./build/configs/examples/5gc-sepp1-999-70.yaml
$ sudo ./build/tests/app/5gc -c ./build/configs/examples/5gc-sepp2-001-01.yaml
$ sudo ./build/tests/app/5gc -c ./build/configs/examples/5gc-sepp3-315-010.yaml

Performs a test of UE access while roaming subscribed to H-PLMN.
