Abstract
A method for improving inter-PLMN routing by implementing health checks for remote SEPPs includes storing a target SEPP database including records corresponding to remote SEPPs to which SBI request messages can be routed. The method further includes receiving SBI request messages destined for NFs in PLMNs protected by the remote SEPPs, using the target SEPP database to select and route messages to the remote SEPPs. The method further includes, for each of the remote SEPPs, sending a health check message to the remote SEPP, determining, based on a response or lack of a response to the health check message that the remote SEPP is unhealthy or unreachable, and, in response, removing a record for the remote SEPP from the target SEPP database or marking the record for the remote SEPP to indicate that the remote SEPP is unhealthy or unreachable.
