Hi Free5GC team,

Would you pls help.
As I want to run all 5GC NFs on machine A, and UPF on machine B.
So I don’t want to use 127.0.0.1 for all NFs on machine A, I changed 127.0.0.1/localhost in all conf files, and then I realized that I also need to change ‘127.0.0.1’ in file /etc/mongodb.conf’ to machine A’s IP (192.168.5.52), I changed it, but mongodb can’t be up.

mongodb.conf

Where to store the data.

dbpath=/var/lib/mongodb

#where to log
logpath=/var/log/mongodb/mongodb.log

logappend=true

bind_ip = 192.168.5.52
port = 27017

I don’t think you need to change the config file of mongodb because only NRF and UDR will use mongodb and they are on machine A right? Just let them to enable to access to mongodb is enough.

thanks. Yes, I change all back to 127.0.0.1 and it worked.
