**CAUTION:** the `192.168.70.132` AMF IF address is the OAI-CN5G `AMF` Container IP address. You certainly will need to do some networking manipulations for the `gNB` server to be able to see this AMF container.

### **gNB configuration in CU/DU split mode**
For the configuration of the gNB in CU and DU blocks, the following sample configuration files are provided for the [CU](https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/-/blob/develop/targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-NR-5GC/CONF/cu_gnb.conf) and the [DU](https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/-/blob/develop/targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-NR-5GC/CONF/du_gnb.conf) entities respectively. These configuration files have to be updated with the IP addresses of the CU and the DU over the F1 interface. For example, in the following section from the DU configuration file, *local_n_address* corresponds to the DU address and *remote_n_address* corresponds to the CU address:

The IP address at the execution command of the OAI UE corresponds to the target IP of the gNB host that the RFSIMULATOR at the UE will connect to. In the above example, we assume that the gNB and UE are running on the same host so the specified address (127.0.0.1) is the one of the loopback interface.
