Abstract
A method for routing, alternate routing, or load balancing of SBI request messages among NFs that are members of the same NF set and located in different regions using an SCP includes actively learning NF topology information of NFs that are located in the different regions. The method further includes receiving an SBI request message and determining an NF set-Id of a first target NF of the SBI request message, the first target NF being located in a first region. The method further includes using the NF set-Id and the NF topology information to identify at least one second target NF that is in the same NF set as the first target NF and located in a different region from the first region. The method further includes routing, alternate routing, or load balancing the SBI request message to at least one of the first target NF and the at least one second target NF.
