- Working OpenNebula installation, version >= 6.4
- OneFlow and OneGate for multi-node orchestration.
- Two virtual networks in your OpenNebula cluster (please refer to the architecture diagram).
- Public network to interconnect the RAN/UE with the OneKE
- Private network to interconnect the OneKE components.
We'll be using OneKE version 1.29, the airgapped variant. You can use Susntone interface or CLI. As an example, using the CLI the procedure will look like this:
onemarketapp export -d default 'Service OneKE 1.29 Airgapped' OneKE1.29Wait for the images to download and be ready. All the associated resources would look like this:

...We'll be using longhorn persistent storage as it is required by the MongoDB pod deployed by Open5GS. Additionally, we'll need MetalLB to expose a full IP for the AMF LoadBalancer service, as this requires SCTP trasnport. Gather the following information:
- Virtual Network ID of the public network (
0in the example below) - Virtual Network ID of the OneKE private network (
1in the example below) - An IP range from the private network for MetalLB (
192.168.150.50-192.168.150.80in the example below). We recommend that you put this IPs on hold in the network so they are not used by any worker or storage node.
Now you can create a file with all this configuration parameters.

These settings need to be consistent with that used by the UERANSIM appliance below. For AMF configuration the key parameters are the mobile network configuration (the Mobile Country Code value mcc and the Mobile Network Code value mnc):
- plmn_id:

mnc: "70"The UPF configuration is defined by the following block:

loadBalancerIP: "192.168.150.60"The key parameter here is the gptu configuration. The deployment of the Open5GS core uses a k8s service of type LoadBalancer to expose UPF endpoint (default setting in the chart is the ClusterIP). This IP is used to setup GTP tunnels between UE and UPF.
Also in the Open5Gs values file includes a sample UE configuration which is pre-populated both at 5G core and UERANSIM appliance:

### Update the UERANSIM template and instantiate
We just need to input the above information so the UERANSIM appliance can auto-configure the UE and gNB services:
```shell
onetemplate update UERANSIM
...

NETWORK="YES",
ONEAPP_UERAN_AMF_IP="192.168.150.50",
ONEAPP_UERAN_CORE_SUBNET="192.168.150.0/24",

...ONEAPP_UERAN_AMF_IP, ONEAPP_UERAN_VNF_IP and ONEAPP_UERAN_CORE_SUBNET with the values you gather from your deployment.
Now simple instantiate the template
onetemplate instantiate UERANSIM --name UERANSIM

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 9.830/10.596/11.458/0.668 msIf you the UE tun interface is missing, most likely the connection between RAN and 5G core wasn’t successful. First it is recommended to look into gNodeB logs. During the initial startup, gNodeB logs are forwarded to /var/log/gnb.log. The key item to investigate within gNB log is the status of the SCTP session between gNB and 5G core AMF.
Below is the example of successful session establishment:

Sometimes in the logs it is explicitly mentioned that SCTP connection can’t be established. In this case the most common cause is the data plane connectivity between UERANSIM appliance and AMF subnetwork. Check that routes are in place:
> ip route
...
192.168.150.0/24 via 172.20.0.3 dev eth0During initial startup, UE logs are forwarded to /var/log/ue.log. Below is example of successful session establishment between the UE and 5G core:
