Linux kernel module 5G GTP-U (Linux kernel version = 5.0.0-23-generic or version >= 5.4)

git clone https://github.com/free5gc/gtp5g.git
cd gtp5g
git checkout v0.3.2
make
sudo make install

Build

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j`nproc`

Test

cd build/bin
./testutlt

Edit configuration file

After building from sources, edit ./build/config/upfcfg.yaml

Setup environment

[Option 1] Set up when reboot

  • (Must) IPv4 forwarding
# Uncomment lines under /etc/sysctl.conf as below
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
  • (Recommend) Forwarding chain in iptables can forward packet
sudo apt install iptables-persistent netfilter-persistent
sudo iptables -A FORWARD -j ACCEPT
sudo netfilter-persistent save
sudo systemctl enable netfilter-persistent
sudo systemctl restart netfilter-persistent
  • (Recommend) Close ubuntu firewall
sudo systemctl stop ufw
sudo systemctl disable ufw
  • (Optional) Using NAT for UE to access data network
sudo apt install iptables-persistent netfilter-persistent
sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o <DN_Interface_Name> -j MASQUERADE
sudo netfilter-persistent save
sudo systemctl enable netfilter-persistent
sudo systemctl restart netfilter-persistent

[Option 2] Set up in runtime

# (Must) IPv4 forwarding
sudo sysctl -a | grep forward        # check sys rule
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

# (Recommend) Forwarding chain in iptables can forward packet
sudo iptables -A FORWARD -j ACCEPT

# (Recommend) Close ubuntu firewall
sudo systemctl stop ufw
sudo systemctl disable ufw

# (Optional) Using NAT for UE to access data network
sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o <DN_Interface_Name> -j MASQUERADE
