dflux Console

One UI for the whole stack

The operator pane of glass. Browser talks only to the console; headless Runner agents, EdgeGuard, and TinyCore NFs are managed from one place — catalog, dispatch, reports, edge status, and core discovery.

  • Unified web UI + BFF for Runner, Edge, and Core
  • Runner agents dial in over gRPC; dispatch jobs and collect reports
  • Edge and TinyCore observability in the same session
  • RBAC (viewer · operator · admin); management plane only

dflux Runner

5G/4G protocol load & conformance tester

Simulate network elements and drive deterministic procedures — registration, PDU session, handover — across five wire protocols plus GTP-U user-plane traffic, all from one declarative YAML flow used for both load and conformance.

  • 452 ready-to-run flows and 36 suites across NGAP, Diameter, SBI, REST, PFCP
  • Declarative YAML flows: an FSM with send / check / extract actions
  • CI one-shot CLI, or console-driven agents
  • Exit codes and JSON reports for clean CI gating

dflux EdgeGuard

5G SBI / 4G Diameter signaling proxy

Sits between NF consumers and producers, applying authentication, policy, rate limiting, transformation, and content-based routing across both HTTP/2 SBI and Diameter — all at wire speed, with hot reload and zero dropped connections.

  • One filter chain for both 5G SBI and 4G Diameter signaling
  • Policy, rate-limit, transformation, and content-based routing engines
  • d3x-edgectl; hot reload with no dropped connections
  • 39 Prometheus metrics, deny-by-default posture

dflux TinyCore

Small 5G core for labs

A complete 5G core network — DMF (AMF+SMF), DPF (AUSF/UDM/UDR/PCF), NRF, UPF, plus optional NSSF and SMSF. Run the golden path from registration to user-plane on a laptop with docker-compose.

  • Core NFs: DMF, DPF, NRF, UPF — optional NSSF & SMSF
  • Real N1/N2/N4 signaling: NGAP, NAS, PFCP, plus GTP-U user plane
  • 5G-AKA / Milenage auth, SUCI→SUPI, subscriber data and policy
  • One docker-compose lab; in-memory, SQLite, or PostgreSQL stores
