Abstract
Embodiments are directed towards systems and methods for routing network traffic in a fifth-generation New Radio (5G NR) cellular telecommunication network radio access network (RAN) to network functions provided in a cloud service provider environment. One such method includes: configuring first virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instances on a first router device using information that identifies the network functions and information that identifies Internet Protocol (IP) subnets; configuring second VRF instances on a second router device using information that identifies the network functions and information that identifies the subnets; controlling a first virtual private cloud (VPC) in the cloud service provider environment, the first VPC performing a first network function; and transmitting a first network packet to the first VPC using a first one of the first VRF instances and a first one of the second VRF instances.
