In Magma 5G, a UE will connect to gNB/AGW for roughly 10 seconds and then disconnect. The root cause of this issue is not provisioning of IPv6 address space in Orchestrator (even if IPv6 is not used in the deployment).
Your Environment
Version: pre-1.9
Affected Component: Orchestrator, Access Gateway, and NMS
Affected Subcomponent: mobilityd
Deployment Environment: Local Orc8r and containerized AGW with Sercomm gNB & Global Telecomm Titan 5000 5G gateway
Describe the Issue
If the network admin fails to specify a) an IPv6 address range in the EPC and b) set the APN PTN to IPv4v6, a 5G UE will initially connect to the network but, after 10 seconds, the connection will drop. A warning message appears in mobilityd log: IPv4/IPv6 IP address allocation not successful. Reconnection may require a UE reboot.

. Reconnection may require a UE reboot.In lte/gateway/python/magma/mobilityd/rpc_servicer.py
the following code throws an exception when IPv6 addresses are not configured.
To Reproduce
Create a network in Orc8r and configure for 5G per this.
In NMS, don't configure IPv6
IPv6 Block
emptyPDN Type
as IPv4Provision and connect gNB
Provision and connect UE
Expected behavior
If the network admin configures the network only for IPv4, magma should ignore IPv6 errors during UE connection and assign IPv4 addresses only.
