1.1 Overview

Security Edge Protection Proxy (SEPP) is a key component of the 5G Service Based Architecture. It is a proxy Network Function (NF) which is used for the secured communication for inter Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) messages.

For more information about the SEPP architecture, see Oracle Communications Cloud Native Core, Security Edge Protection Proxy User Guide.

SEPP can be deployed, upgraded, and rolled back using Continuous Delivery Control Server (CDCS) or Command Line Interface (CLI) procedures as described in Oracle Communications Cloud Native Core Security Edge Protection Proxy Installation, Upgrade, and Fault Recovery Guide. CDCS provides continuous delivery functionality for multi site Cloud Native Core (CNC) installations. For more information about CDCS, see Oracle Communications Cloud Native Core, Continuous Delivery Control Server User Guide.

The user can install either SEPP or Roaming Hub/Hosted SEPP.

Note:

The performance and capacity of the SEPP system may vary based on the call model, Feature/Interface configuration, and underlying CNE and hardware environment.
