The details about the deployment configurations are as follows:

3-Site GR Setup Traffic Distribution Overview

The 3-Site GR (Geo-Replication) setup includes one CSEPP and three PSEPPs:

  • CSEPP and PSEPP1 are fully deployed and operational.
  • PSEPP2 and PSEPP3 are partially deployed, each with 3 pods running the following components:
    • cn32f
    • pn32f
    • plmn-ingress-gateway (PLMN Ingress Gateway)
    • plmn-egress-gateway (PLMN Egress Gateway)
    • n32-ingress-gateway (N32 Ingress Gateway)
    • n32-egress-gateway (N32 Egress Gateway)
Traffic Distribution

The total traffic handled by this setup is 40K MPS (Messages Per Second). Currently, the traffic distribution between the CSEPP and PSEPPs is uneven. Below are the details of how the traffic is routed and distributed:

Outbound Traffic (CSEPP → PSEPPs)
  • CSEPP → PSEPP1: 80% of the traffic is routed to PSEPP1.
  • CSEPP → PSEPP2: 10% of the traffic is routed to PSEPP2.
  • CSEPP → PSEPP3: 10% of the traffic is routed to PSEPP3.
Inbound Traffic (PSEPPs → CSEPP)
  • PSEPP1 → CSEPP: 75% of the inbound traffic is sent from PSEPP1 to CSEPP.
  • PSEPP2 → CSEPP: 12.5% of the inbound traffic is sent from PSEPP2 to CSEPP.
  • PSEPP3 → CSEPP: 12.5% of the inbound traffic is sent from PSEPP3 to CSEPP.
