Check the Park's website before you go and you'll find out what you're looking for....

And of course, since it sounds like you won't qualify for a Thru permit, you will need to get a permit with reservations for each campsite or shelter you plan to camp at.
Reservations, hiking permit, no dogs allowed. Check GSMNP website for trail updates and shelter closures.
