Abstract

In the near future, a huge amount of network will flow through the fifth generation (5G) network since a tremendous number of IOT devices/sensors will soon connect to their application platforms via 5G. In such a heavy-traffic environment, low-latency requirement will seriously impact wireless transmission security. Also, 5G adopts Software Defined Network (SDN) and Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) which conduct short transmission delays and user-defined security may be a solution. Also, in 5G due to employing small cells of small communication ranges, compared with those adopted by 4G, the number of handover will be relatively frequent, resulting in the fact that the migration of network services or functions will be another problem yet to be solved. In this paper, we propose a firewall establishment process which installs firewalls in an EPC or eNB to reduce the number of delivered signaling messages.
