Node Feature Support

As per 3GPP standard:

  • CP informs load and overload feature to the user-plane.

  • User-plane decides to send load or overload information towards the CP peer or not.

Configure load and overload feature at CP as a part of PFCP Sxa endpoint node feature. This configuration in turn communicates to UP during Sx Association Response message or Sx Association Update Request message when change in configuration occurs.

The CP Function Feature IE indicates the supported CP function features. This IE contains features which have (system-wide) UP function behavior impact.

Note

If CP does not support load or overload feature through CLI then it ignores the user-plane reported load or overload information for the UP selection process.
