Hi Rafael,

In the NextEPC, there are two ways to specify peers. 'addr' sets the IP
address, and 'name' sets the hostname.
So, if your network is configured to look up the VLR as a hostname, you can
use 'name'.

'port' was just made for testing. If you want to use a different port
without using standard 29118, you can put  'port' number.

By the way, I've changed how to configure CS Fallback & SMS as below.

#  o Single MSC/VLR(127.0.0.2)
    sgsap:
      addr: 127.0.0.2
      map:
        tai:
          plmn_id:
            mcc: 001
            mnc: 01
          tac: 4130
        lai:
          plmn_id:
            mcc: 001
            mnc: 01
          lac: 43690
      map:
        tai:
          plmn_id:
            mcc: 002
            mnc: 02
          tac: 4132
        lai:
          plmn_id:
            mcc: 002
            mnc: 02
          lac: 43692

#  o Multiple MSC/VLR
    sgsap:
      - addr: 127.0.0.2
        port: 29119
        map:
          tai:
            plmn_id:
              mcc: 001
              mnc: 01
            tac: 4131
          lai:
            plmn_id:
              mcc: 001
              mnc: 01
            lac: 43691
        map:
          tai:
            plmn_id:
              mcc: 002
              mnc: 02
            tac: 4132
          lai:
            plmn_id:
              mcc: 002
              mnc: 02
            lac: 43692
      - addr
         - 127.0.0.3
         - fe80::2%lo
        map:
          tai:
            plmn_id:
              mcc: 001
              mnc: 01
            tac: 4132
          lai:
            plmn_id:
              mcc: 002
              mnc: 02
            lac: 43692
      - name: msc.open5gs.org
        map:
          tai:
            plmn_id:
              mcc: 001
              mnc: 01
            tac: 4133
          lai:
            plmn_id:
              mcc: 002
              mnc: 02
            lac: 43693

Thanks a lot!

Best Regards,
    Sukchan
