### Exposing the UPF externally

If a load balancer such as `metallb` is present, the charm will configure an externally accessible
If a load balancer such as `metallb` is present, the charm will configure an externally accessible
service port with the load balancer upon install of the charm.

### Running UPF in DPDK mode

By default, UPF runs in `af_packet` mode. To run UPF in `dpdk` mode, `upf-mode` config option
should be used, i.e.:

```shell
juju deploy sdcore-upf --trust --channel=edge --config upf-mode="dpdk" --config enable-hugepages=True --config access-interface-mac-address="00:b0:d0:63:c2:26" --config core-interface-mac-address="00:b0:d0:63:c2:36"
```

As shown in the example above, when running UPF in `dpdk` mode, it is necessary to enable
HugePages and pass the MAC addresses of the `Access` and `Core` interfaces.

```{note}
Example command shown above assumes using default network configuration. If needed, network configs
should be changed to match the actual configuration.
```
