MongoDB is required by database-backed components such as HSS/PCRF
and PCF/UDR, but it does not need to be installed locally when an
external MongoDB server is used.
Move the MongoDB package relationship from Depends to Recommends for
the affected Debian packages, so the default installation still pulls
MongoDB in while allowing users to opt out with --no-install-recommends.
Update the documentation to clarify which components use MongoDB and
explain that the MongoDB installation step can be skipped when using an
external database.
The previous key downloaded from `download.opensuse.org` was expired
(EXPKEYSIG FE7F42F276CEE0E6), causing `apt update` to fail when following
the Debian quickstart instructions.
This patch replaces the deprecated key URLs with valid signing key
download locations from build.opensuse.org and obs.osmocom.org.
Issues: #4175
Previously, policies were configured via YAML files without MongoDB.
This update enhances the YAML approach by adding the 'supi_range' key to
filter policies based on UE SUPI ranges. When both 'supi_range' and
'plmn_id' are provided, both conditions must be met.
Note that PLMN-ID filtering will be deprecated in a future release.
A friend in the community was trying to connect an SMF made by another
manufacturer with an SBI interface and found a big problem with Open5GS.
All of the code in the part that generates the Resource URI
from HTTP.location is invalid.
For example, suppose we create a Resource URI with SMContext as below.
{apiRoot}/nsmf-pdusession/<apiVersion>/sm-contexts/{smContextRef}
In this case, Open5GS extracted the {smContextRef} part of the HTTP.location
and appended it to the beginning
{apiRoot}/nsmf-pdusession/<apiVersion>/sm-contexts/.
This implementation may not work properly if the apiRoot changes.
Consider a different port number as shown below.
<HTTP.location>
127.0.0.4:9999/nsmf-pdusession/v1/sm-contexts/1
The SMF may send an apiRoot to the AMF with a changed port number,
in which case the AMF must honor it.
Therefore, instead of extracting only the smContextRef from HTTP.location,
we modified it to use the whole thing to create a Resource URI.
We modified all NFs that use HTTP.location in the same way, not just SMFs.
If eg. PCRF or AAA diameter link is not yet ready (eg. PCRF crashed),
and a client sends a CreateSessionRequest announcing its ow F-TEID,
then open5gs-smfd answers with Create Session Response Cause=
"Remote peer not responding", but it is not setting the received F-TEID
in the header of the response, instead it sends with TEI=0.
As a result, the peer cannot match the CreateSessionResponse,
and needs to rely on its own timeout timer to figure out
that specific request failed.
To address this issue, I modified the GTP Response message to check
the Sender F-TEID and send it accordingly, setting the destination TEID
to the value of the Sender F-TEID.
I've made this modification only for SMF, but MME and SGW-C have not done so;
if you need to, you can work from the examples in SMF.
Similarly, the same situation can happen with PFCP. If anyone needs to do this
in the future, I think you can work on it this way.
