Installing Homebrew


$ /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Getting MongoDB


Install MongoDB with Package Manager.

$ brew tap mongodb/brew
$ brew install mongodb-community

Run MongoDB server.

$ mkdir -p ./data/db
$ mongod --dbpath ./data/db

Tip: MongoDB is persistent after rebooting with the following commands: $ brew services start mongodb-community {: .notice--info}

Setting up TUN device (No persistent after rebooting)


Install TUN/TAP driver

Configure the TUN device.

$ sudo ifconfig lo0 alias 127.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.255
$ sudo ifconfig lo0 alias 127.0.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.255
$ sudo ifconfig lo0 alias 127.0.0.4 netmask 255.255.255.255
$ sudo ifconfig lo0 alias 127.0.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.255

Enable IP forwarding & Masquerading

$ sudo sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
$ sudo sh -c "echo 'nat on {en0} from 10.45.0.0/16 to any -> {en0}' > /etc/pf.anchors/org.open5gs"
$ sudo pfctl -e -f /etc/pf.anchors/org.open5gs

Tip: The script provided in [$GIT_REPO/misc/netconf.sh](https://github.com/{{ site.github_username }}/open5gs/blob/master/misc/netconf.sh) makes it easy to configure the TUN device as follows:
$ sudo ./misc/netconf.sh {: .notice--info}

Building Open5GS


Install the depedencies for building the source code.

$ brew install mongo-c-driver gnutls libgcrypt libidn libyaml libmicrohttpd curl pkg-config

Install Meson using Homebrew.

$ brew install meson

Git clone.

$ git clone https://github.com/{{ site.github_username }}/open5gs

To compile with meson:

$ cd open5gs
$ meson build --prefix=`pwd`/install -D c_std=c99
$ ninja -C build

Check whether the compilation is correct.

Note: This should require sudo due to access /dev/tun0. {: .notice--danger}

$ sudo ninja -C build test

Tip: You can also check the result of sudo ninja -C build test with a tool that captures packets. If you are running wireshark, select the loopback interface and set FILTER to s1ap || gtpv2 || diameter || gtp. You can see the virtually created packets. testsimple.pcapng({{ site.url }}{{ site.baseurl }}/assets/pcapng/testsimple.pcapng) {: .notice--info}

You need to perform the installation process.

$ cd build
$ ninja install
