Abstract
A method for automatically generating and distributing firewall rules to filter service-based interface (SBI) messages relating to new or updated services includes maintaining a repository of firewall rules for updating a ruleset used by a core network firewall to filter SBI messages transmitted in a core network. The method further includes automatically retrieving, from an online archive of Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standards documents, definitions of service operations performed on SBI interfaces in the core network. The method further includes automatically generating firewall rules based on the definitions of the service operations. The method further includes storing the firewall rules in the repository of firewall rules. The method further includes automatically distributing the firewall rules in the repository of firewall rules to the core network firewall.
