2 Overview

2.1 IntroductionOperation and maintenance channels (OMCHs) are established between base stations and theoperation maintenance center (OMC, either the U2000 or BSC). OMCHs are used to transmitoperation and maintenance information about base stations and are classified as follows:

l OMCHs between the single-mode base station, such as the eGBTS, NodeB, or eNodeB andthe U2000, or between the GBTS and the BSC.

l OMCHs between the co-MPT multimode base station and the U2000.l MPT is short for main processing and transmission unit. OMCHs between the separate-

MPT multimode base station and the U2000. The separate-MPT multimode base station iscomprised of multiple cascaded single-mode base stations and therefore has multipleOMCHs. For example, OMCHs for the separate-MPT UMTS/LTE dual-mode base stationinclude the OMCH between the NodeB and the U2000, and the OMCH between theeNodeB and the U2000.

l OMCHs between the U2000 and the NodeB in an ATM network.NOTE

One end of an OMCH is located at the main control board of a base station. Depending on the configurationof the main control board, multimode base stations are classified into co-MPT multimode base stations andseparate-MPT multimode base stations. For co-MPT multimode base stations, GSM, UMTS, and LTEmodes share the same main control board and OMCH. For separate-MPT multimode base stations, GSM,UMTS, and LTE modes have their respective main control boards and OMCHs.In this document, a base station is used if differentiation among GSM, UMTS, and LTE modes is notrequired. A GBTS, eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, co-MPT multimode base station, or separate-MPT multimodebase station is used if differentiation among GSM, UMTS, and LTE modes is required.In this document, the BSC is the OMC of a GBTS and the U2000 is the OMC of an eGBTS, NodeB,eNodeB, separate-MPT multimode base station, or co-MPT multimode base station.

The Automatic OMCH Establishment feature enables a powered-on base station, which isconfigured with hardware but no transmission information, to obtain OMCH configurationinformation through the transport network and automatically establish an OMCH to the U2000or BSC. The base station can then automatically download software and configuration files/configuration data from the U2000 or BSC over the established OMCH and activate them. Afterbeing commissioned, the base station enters the working state. For details, see 3900 Series BaseStation Commissioning Guide.

This feature applies to base station deployment by PnP. Figure 2-1 shows the O&M path self-establishment phase during deployment by PnP.

Figure 2-1 Automatic OMCH establishment phase during base station deployment by PnP

NOTE

This document describes only the procedures marked in the dashed box shown in Figure 2-1.

To establish an OMCH, a base station needs to obtain the following transmission configurationinformation:

l Basic information, including its OM IP address, OM virtual local area network (VLAN)ID, the interface IP address, the interface IP address mask, the IP address of the next-hopgateway, the IP address of the U2000 or BSC, and the IP address mask of the U2000 orBSC.

For details about how the base station obtains the preceding information, see chapter "BaseStation Obtaining Transmission Configuration Information".

2.2 BenefitsWith the Automatic OMCH Establishment feature, a base station can establish OMCHs bynetwork communication without requiring operations at the local end. This implements remotebase station deployment by PnP, thereby facilitating base station deployment and reducing thedeployment cost and time.

3 IP-based Automatic OMCH Establishmentfor Base Stations

3.1 OMCH Protocol StacksOMCHs between the eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPT multimode base station and theU2000 are carried over Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). OMCHs between the GBTS andthe BSC are carried over User Datagram Protocol (UDP).

Figure 3-1 shows the protocol stacks for an OMCH between the eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, orco-MPT multimode base station and the U2000.

Figure 3-1 Protocol stacks for an OMCH between the eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPTmultimode base station and the U2000

As shown in Figure 3-1, an OMCH between the eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPTmultimode base station and the U2000 is carried over TCP and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), ofwhich SSL is optional.

The eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPT multimode base station listens to the TCP connectionestablishment request with a specific TCP port number from the U2000, and establishes the TCPconnection to the U2000 as requested. After the TCP connection is established, the U2000initiates an OMCH establishment request to the eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPT multimodebase station.

The U2000 can use SSL to perform encryption and authentication for OMCHs and enable theestablishment of SSL-based OMCHs. SSL uses the public key infrastructure (PKI), with whichthe communication between the base station and the U2000 is protected against eavesdroppingand therefore confidentiality and reliability are guaranteed. For details about SSL, see SSLFeature Parameter Description.

Figure 3-2 shows the protocol stacks for an OMCH between the GBTS and the BSC.

Figure 3-2 Protocol stacks for an OMCH between the GBTS and the BSC

As shown in Figure 3-2, an OMCH between the GBTS and the BSC is carried over UDP. TheGBTS listens to the UDP connection establishment request with a specific UDP port numberfrom the BSC, and establishes the UDP connection to the BSC as requested. After the UDPconnection is established, the BSC initiates an OMCH establishment request to the GBTS.

NOTE

During the OMCH establishment procedure, the eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPT multimode basestation listens to specific TCP port numbers, and the GBTS listens to the UDP port numbers. For details,see Communication Matrix of 3900 Series Base Stations. The packets with these port numbers must beallowed to pass through the firewall between the base station and the DHCP server, U2000, or BSC.

After establishing an OMCH to the U2000, the base station uses File Transmission Protocol (FTP) todownload software and configuration files from the FTP server. FTP runs over TCP/IP, and therefore itstransport layer can be secured using SSL. For details about FTP, see RFC 959.

After establishing an OMCH to the BSC, the GBTS uses the proprietary protocol that runs over UDP todownload software and configuration files from the BSC.

3.2 Base Station Obtaining Transmission ConfigurationInformation

3.2.1 Transmission Mode of the OMCHA base station has two types of transmission ports: E1/T1 ports and Ethernet ports. E1/T1 portssupport TDM, ATM, and IP over E1/T1 transmission modes, and Ethernet ports support IPtransmission mode. No transmission mode is configured on the base station before the OMCHis established. Therefore, the base station tries different transmission modes over the

transmission ports until the OMCH is successfully established. Different base stations trydifferent transmission modes in polling mode:

l eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, and co-MPT multimode base station: IP over FE/GE, ATM, andthen IP over E1/T1

l GBTS: TDM, IP over E1/T1, and then IP over FE/GE

3.2.2 Physical Layer DetectionA base station negotiates with a peer transmission device about the duplex mode and data ratefor an Ethernet port on the physical layer. The peer transmission device can work in auto-negotiation or full duplex mode.

If an E1/T1 port is available on the physical layer, an eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPTmultimode base station attempts to set the working mode of a detection port to E1/T1 mode, andusers can set the working mode of a detection port to E1/T1 mode for a GBTS by using therelated DIP switch.

3.2.3 Data Link Layer Detection

IP over FE/GE Transmission

A base station obtains the VLANs used by the data link layer through the VLAN acquisitionprocess. For details, see section 3.2.8 Schemes for Obtaining VLAN Information for DHCPPackets.

IP over E1/T1 Transmission

You can learn that a base station works in E1 or T1 mode from physical layer detection. Thebase station supports PPP/MP detection on E1/T1 timeslot combinations. Table 3-1 and Table3-2 describe the E1 and T1 timeslot combinations, respectively. Note that PPP is short for Point-to-Point Protocol and MP is short for Multilink Protocol.

If a base station works in IP over E1/T1 mode, its peer transmission device must be configuredas follows:

l PPP/MP detection is configured as non-authentication.

l The peer IP address is configured for PPP/MP detection.

If the peer transmission device is not functioning as a DHCP server, the DHCP relay agentfunction must be enabled on the interface for PPP/MP detection on the peer transmission device.

3.2.4 DHCP Overview

3.2.4.1 Introduction

Before an OMCH is established, a base station is not configured with any data and cannotperform end-to-end communication with other devices at the IP layer. To implement thiscommunication, the base station needs to obtain the following information:

Page 17: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

l OMCH configuration data, including the OM IP address, OM VLAN ID, interface IPaddress, interface IP address mask, IP address of the next-hop gateway, IP address of theU2000 or BSC, and IP address mask of the U2000 or BSC.

The base station uses DHCP to obtain the preceding information. DHCP is used to allocate anddistribute configuration parameters and adopts the client/server mode. The DHCP procedureinvolves the following logical NEs:

l DHCP client: a host that uses DHCP to obtain configuration parameters

l DHCP server: a host that allocates and distributes configuration parameters to a DHCPclient

l DHCP relay agent: an NE that transmits DHCP packets between a DHCP server and aDHCP client. A DHCP relay client must be deployed between a DHCP server and a DHCPclient that are in different broadcast domains.

After a DHCP client accesses the network, it actively exchanges DHCP packets with its DHCPserver to obtain configuration parameters. During the exchange, the DHCP server and the DHCPrelay agent listen to DHCP packets in which the destination UDP port number is 67, and theDHCP client listens to DHCP packets in which the destination UDP port number is 68.

3.2.4.2 DHCP Interworking

When a DHCP client and a DHCP server are in the same broadcast domain, they can receivebroadcast packets from each other. Figure 3-3 shows the interworking between the DHCP clientand DHCP server that are in the same broadcast domain.

Figure 3-3 DHCP interworking between the DHCP client and DHCP server that are in the samebroadcast domain

1. After the DHCP client starts, it broadcasts a DHCPDISCOVER packet to search for anavailable DHCP server. The DHCPDISCOVER packet carries the identificationinformation about the DHCP client.

Page 18: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

2. The DHCP server responds to the DHCPDISCOVER packet with a DHCPOFFER packet.3. The DHCP client sends a DHCPREQUEST packet to the DHCP server, requesting

parameters such as an IP address.4. The DHCP server sends a DHCPACK packet to the DHCP client to assign parameters such

as an IP address.5. If the assigned parameters cannot be used, for example, an assigned IP address has been

used by other DHCP clients, the DHCP client sends a DHCPDECLINE packet to notifythe DHCP server.

6. If the DHCP client does not need the assigned parameters any more, it sends aDHCPRELEASE packet to notify the DHCP server so that the DHCP server can assignthese parameters to other DHCP clients.When the DHCP client and DHCP server are not in the same broadcast domain, they cannotreceive broadcast packets from each other. In this case, the DHCP relay agent functionmust be enabled in the broadcast domain of the DHCP client to ensure the communicationbetween the DHCP client and DHCP server. Generally, the DHCP relay agent function isenabled on the gateway. When the DHCP relay agent function is enabled, the IP addressof the corresponding DHCP server must be configured so that the DHCP relay agent canforward the DHCP packets from the DHCP client to the correct DHCP server. Figure3-4 shows the interworking between the DHCP client and DHCP server that are not in thesame broadcast domain.

Figure 3-4 DHCP interworking between the DHCP client and DHCP server that are not in thesame broadcast domain

3.2.4.3 DHCP Packet FormatFigure 3-3 shows the example format of DHCP packets shown in Figure 3-5.

Figure 3-5 DHCP packet format

NOTE

The actual length and sequence of each field in a DHCP packet in software implementation may be differentfrom those shown in Figure 3-5.

In a DHCP packet, the IP and UDP headers are in the standard format, and the DHCP headercontains the DHCP control and configuration information. In the DHCP header, the fields relatedto automatic OMCH establishment are as follows:

l yiaddr: This field carries the interface IP address of the base station.

l giaddr: This field carries the IP address of the DHCP relay agent.

Option fields: They are encoded in code-length-value (CLV) format and consist of manysubcodes. Among them, Option 43 carries Huawei proprietary information elements (IEs)and most configuration information of the base station. For example, subcode 1 in Option43 carries the electronic serial number (ESN) of the Huawei base station. For details aboutsubcodes of Option43, see Table 3-6.

Because Option 43 has a limited length, Option 224 is also used to carry Huawei proprietaryIEs in SRAN8.0 or later.

For details about DHCP, see section "Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)" in RFC2131 and "DHCP Options and BOOTP Vendor Extensions" in RFC 2132.

3.2.5 DHCP Clients, Servers, and Relay AgentsIn this document, base stations act as DHCP clients. Table 3-3 describes the mapping betweenbase stations and DHCP servers.

Table 3-3 Mapping between base stations and DHCP servers

Base Station Type DHCP Server

Single-mode GBTS BSC

eGBTS/eNodeB U2000

NodeB U2000 or RNC

Multimode Co-MPT multimode basestation

U2000

Separate-MPT multimodebase station

Same as that of each single-mode base station

NOTE

Unless otherwise specified, "base station controller" in this document is a generic term for GSM and UMTSmodes.

The DHCP server and the U2000 are different logical communication entities, although they may bedeployed on the same hardware. Therefore, this document distinguishes between the DHCP server and theU2000.

If the DHCP server is deployed on the base station controller, the base station can be on the same L2network as the base station controller. If the DHCP server is deployed on the U2000, the base station cannotbe on the same L2 network as the U2000. For security reasons, the U2000's operating system can processonly DHCP unicast packets, not DHCP broadcast packets.

The DHCP server can be deployed on the L2 network of the base station only when the DHCPserver is deployed on the base station controller instead of the U2000. This is because DHCPpackets carry the well-known UDP port number and the operating system of the U2000 alwaysdiscards such packets. Therefore, the DHCP server deployed on the U2000 can process onlyDHCP packets forwarded by the DHCP relay agent, but not DHCP packets broadcast by thebase station.

In SRAN8.0 and later versions, if single-mode base stations or separate-MPT multimode basestations evolve to co-MPT multimode base stations, their DHCP servers must migrate to theU2000. Even if the evolution is not implemented, the migration is recommended, because itprovides better function support and paves the way to future smooth upgrades and evolutions.

When the base station is not on the same L2 network as the DHCP server, a DHCP relay agentmust be deployed. Pay attention to the following when deploying a DHCP relay agent:

SingleRANAutomatic OMCH Establishment Feature ParameterDescription

Page 21: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

l When a next-hop gateway of the base station is deployed on the transport network, theDHCP relay agent function must be enabled and the U2000 DHCP server IP address mustbe configured on the next-hop gateway of the base station.– If the next-hop gateway uses the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), the IP

address of the DHCP relay agent must be set to the virtual IP address of the VRRP.– If the base station is a GBTS, BTSGWIPSWITCH and NEXTHOP must be set to

ON and the next-hop IP address of the GBTS using the SET BTSIP command,respectively.

l When the base station is on the same L2 network as the base station controller, DHCPpackets pass through the base station controller, and the U2000 serves as the DHCP serverfor the base station (for example, eGBTS or NodeB), this base station controller can bedeployed as the DHCP relay agent. If the DHCP relay agent function is enabled on a certainport of the base station controller, this port serves as the DHCP relay agent for all eGBTSsand NodeBs connected to this port. The ADD DHCPRLY command can be used to enablethe DHCP relay agent function on a port of the base station controller. In this command:– DHCPRLYID indicates the identity of a DHCP relay agent.– DHCPRLYGATEWAYIP indicates the interface IP address of the base station

controller.– DHCPSRVISEMSIP indicates whether the U2000 that manages the base station

controller serves as the DHCP server for the base station. If not, the DHCP server IPaddress of the base station (the DHCPSRVIP1 parameter) also needs to be configured.

– DHCPPID is used to enable or disable the DHCP relay agent function only onBSC6900s. The base station controller serves as the DHCP server for the base stationby default. You can select the OTHERSWITCH check box under the DHCPPIDparameter to enable the DHCP relay agent function for the base station.

A few MML command examples are as follows://Enabling the DHCP relay agent function on the base station controller when the U2000 that manages this base station controller is the DHCP server for the base station ADD DHCPRLY: DHCPRLYID=1, DHCPRLYGATEWAYIP="10.1.1.1", DHCPPID=OTHERSWITCH-1, DHCPSRVISEMSIP=Yes; //Enabling the DHCP relay agent function on the base station controller when the U2000 that manages this base station controller is not the DHCP server for the base station and the DHCP server IP address of the base station is 10.0.0.1 ADD DHCPRLY: DHCPRLYID=1, DHCPRLYGATEWAYIP="10.1.1.1", DHCPPID=OTHERSWITCH-1, DHCPSRVISEMSIP=No, DHCPSRVIP1="10.0.0.1";

NOTE

The base station controller can serve as the DHCP server or DHCP relay agent for certain types of basestations.l For the GBTS, the base station controller can only serve as the DHCP server, not as the DHCP relay

agent.l For the NodeB, the base station controller can serve as the DHCP server or DHCP relay agent.l For other types of base stations, such as the eGBTS and co-MPT multimode base station, the base

station controller can only serve as the DHCP relay agent.

l When base stations are cascaded or backplane co-transmission is applied, an upper-levelbase station serves as the next-hop gateway for its lower-level base station. In this case, theDHCP relay agent function must be enabled and the DHCP server IP address of the lower-level base station must be configured on the upper-level base station.If the upper-level base station is an eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPT multimode basestation, run the SET DHCPRELAYSWITCH command with ES set to ENABLE to

enable the DHCP relay agent function. Then, run the ADD DHCPSVRIP command withDHCPSVRIP set to the DHCP server IP address of the lower-level base station. Amaximum of four DHCP server IP addresses can be configured. If the upper-level basestation is a GBTS, run the ADD BTSDHCPSVRIP command with DHCPSRV set to theIP address of the lower-level base station's DHCP server.

A few MML command examples are as follows:

For the eGBTS, NodeB, eNodeB, or co-MPT multimode base station://Enabling the DHCP relay agent function on the upper-level base stationSET DHCPRELAYSWITCH: ES=ENABLE;//Setting the DHCP server IP address to 10.19.19.11. Each broadcast DHCP packet received by the upper-level base station will be forwarded to all DHCP servers.ADD DHCPSVRIP: DHCPSVRIP="10.19.19.11";

For the GBTS:ADD BTSDHCPSVRIP: IDTYPE=BYID, BTSID=20, DHCPSRV="10.100.10.10";

In scenarios where base stations are cascaded, the upper-level base station attempts to useits OM IP address and the IP addresses of its interface for panel-based interconnection(lower transmission interface) as IP addresses of the DHCP relay agent.

In scenarios where backplane co-transmission is applied, the upper-level base stationattempts to use its OM IP address and the IP addresses of its interface connecting to thetransport network (upper transmission interface) as IP addresses of the DHCP relay agent.The IP addresses of the interface connecting to the transport network and the next-hop IPaddress of the route to the DHCP server must be on the same network segment.

For details about configuration requirements, see Table 3-3.

l A base station can serve as the DHCP relay agent for other base stations in the same L2network. In this case, the DHCP relay agent function must be enabled and the DHCP serverIP addresses of the other base stations must be configured on the base station in question.The enabling and configuring methods for this base station is the same as those for an upper-level base station.

NOTE

Cascaded base stations cannot exceed four levels on the chain topology because DHCP packets willbe discarded if the number of DHCP relay agents is greater than four in the transport network.

3.2.6 DHCP Procedure

3.2.6.1 Base Station Identification

Upon receiving a DHCP packet from a base station, the DHCP server finds and sends relatedconfiguration information to the base station based on the base station identification (BS ID)contained in the DHCP packet.

The U2000 that matches SRAN8.0 or a later version uses the combination of the ESN and slotnumber or the combination of the deployment identifier (DID), subrack topology, and slotnumber as the BS ID.

Base station controllers and U2000s that match versions earlier than SRAN8.0 use thecombination of the ESN and NE type or the combination of the DID and NE type as the BS ID.

The details about each element in the combinations are as follows:

SingleRANAutomatic OMCH Establishment Feature ParameterDescription

3 IP-based Automatic OMCH Establishment for BaseStations

Issue 01 (2014-04-30) Huawei Proprietary and ConfidentialCopyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

18

Page 23: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

l ESN identifies the baseband unit (BBU) backplane of the base station. Each backplane hasa unique ESN. The ESN is reported by the base station.

l Deployment ID (DID) is the site identifier planned by the operator. DID is scanned intothe base station using a barcode scanner connected to the USB port of the main controlboard during base station deployment. After being scanned into the base station, the DIDis broadcast in all BBUs. All main control boards will record the DID and use it as the BSID in the DHCP procedure.

l Subrack topology identifies the interconnection relationship between BBU subracks thatare interconnected. The combination of the DID and subrack topology uniquely identifiesa BBU subrack.

l Slot number identifies the number of the slot that accommodates the main control board.The slot number is used to differentiate main control boards in a BBU subrack. If the basestation is configured with active and standby main control boards, the slot number is thatof the active main control board. The slot number is reported by the base station.

l NE type indicates whether the base station works in the GSM, UMTS, or LTE mode.

When creating a base station commissioning task by PnP, operators must specify the ESN if theU2000 uses the combination of the ESN and slot number as the BS ID. The DID must be includedin the base station configuration file if the U2000 uses the combination of the subrack topologyand slot number as the BS ID.

NOTE

A combination of the DID, subrack topology, and slot number can be used as the BS ID only if thetransmission port of the base station is an Ethernet port and the DHCP server of the base station is deployedon the U2000.

3.2.6.2 Procedure for Obtaining Configuration Information

Procedure for Obtaining Configuration Information with No DHCP Relay AgentA DHCP client and a DHCP server on the same Layer 2 (L2) network can directly communicatewith each other. The L2 network is a subnet in which broadcast IP packets can be exchangedand forwarded by Media Access Control (MAC) addresses and VLAN IDs. An example is theEthernet or a VLAN of the Ethernet.

Figure 3-6 shows the procedure for a base station to obtain configuration information from aDHCP server when no DHCP relay agent is deployed.

Figure 3-6 Procedure for obtaining configuration information with no DHCP relay agent

Issue 01 (2014-04-30) Huawei Proprietary and ConfidentialCopyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

19

Page 24: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

The procedure is as follows: After the base station is powered on, it broadcasts aDHCPDISCOVER packet with the BS ID. The DHCP server then sends configurationinformation to the base station based on the BS ID.

Procedure for Obtaining Configuration Information with a DHCP Relay AgentIf a DHCP server is not deployed on the L2 network of a DHCP client, a DHCP relay agent mustbe installed on the next-hop gateway of the DHCP client to forward DHCP packets. The DHCPrelay agent must be on the same L2 network as the DHCP client, and the DHCP server must beon the Layer 3 (L3) network in which packets are forwarded by IP addresses.

Figure 3-7 shows the procedure for a base station to obtain configuration information from aDHCP server when a DHCP relay agent is deployed.

Figure 3-7 Procedure for obtaining configuration information with a DHCP relay agent

The procedure is as follows: The DHCP relay agent converts DHCP packets broadcast by thebase station to unicast packets and routes the unicast packets to the DHCP server. The DHCPserver sends unicast response packets to the DHCP relay agent, which then broadcasts receivedresponse packets on the L2 network.

3.2.6.3 Procedure for Releasing Allocated Configuration InformationWhen a base station obtains configuration information from its U2000 DHCP server and doesnot need configuration information allocated by a public DHCP server, the base station sends aDHCPRELEASE message to the public DHCP server. After receiving the DHCPRELEASEmessage, the public DHCP server can redistribute allocated configuration information to otherNEs. Figure 3-8 shows the procedure for releasing allocated configuration information.

Page 25: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

Figure 3-8 Procedure for releasing allocated configuration information

NOTE

In addition to the preceding procedures, DHCP also supports the procedure for updating configurationinformation. However, base stations in SRAN8.0 do not support the procedure for updating configurationinformation.

3.2.7 Automatic DHCP Data SynchronizationBefore you use Automatic OMCH Establishment, ensure that correct DHCP data of a base stationis available on the U2000 DHCP server. Any manual modifications to a base station'stransmission configuration data may change its DHCP data on the U2000. In earlier versions,users have to manually ensure that the DHCP data on the U2000 DHCP server is correct beforethe next automatic OMCH establishment procedure starts. As manual data check is a complexand error-prone process, the automatic DHCP data synchronization function is introduced in thisversion.

After the base station is deployed, the system automatically synchronizes manual modificationsto the transmission configuration data in the base station configuration file with the U2000 DHCPserver. This ensures the configuration information consistency between the U2000 DHCP serverand the base station. For manual modifications on a single base station, the system starts datasynchronization 10 minutes after the last manual data modification and completes thesynchronization within 5 minutes. For manual modifications on a number of base stations, thesystem starts data synchronization for every 200 base stations as a batch and completes eachbatch's synchronization within less than or equal to 30 minutes. DHCP data must be manuallymodified on the U2000 GUI.

However, the automatic DHCP data synchronization function does not support automaticsynchronization of the NE name, NE type, ESN, and working mode because they identify aspecific NE.

In addition, this function does not support automatic synchronization of Security GatewayEmergency Bypass because it must be manually configured.

Automatic DHCP data synchronization supports synchronization of other information on theU2000 DHCP server. Before starting automatic DHCP data synchronization, ensure that therelated NE data exists in the current data area on the CME.

3.2.8 Schemes for Obtaining VLAN Information for DHCP PacketsPackets sent by a base station on a VLAN-based network must carry the VLAN ID. Before anOMCH is established, that is, before the base station sends the first DHCP packet, the base station

SingleRANAutomatic OMCH Establishment Feature ParameterDescription

21

Page 26: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

must learn VLAN information after it starts. After learning VLAN information by parsingreceived Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) packets with VLAN IDs, the base station deliversDHCP packets with VLAN IDs and interworks with DHCP servers to obtain transmissionconfiguration information. The procedure for obtaining VLAN information is as follows:

1. Once the DHCP function is enabled on the base station, the base station starts the VLANacquisition process. With VLAN acquisition, the base station actively acquires VLAN IDsof all received ARP packets and records these VLAN IDs in a PnP VLAN-ID table.

2. The base station sends DHCP packets without VLAN IDs or DHCP packets with VLANIDs set to 0.

3. The base station waits 20s. If the base station receives a DHCPOFFER packet within 20s,it exits the DHCP procedure and enters the subsequent PnP deployment procedure.Otherwise, the base station goes to the next step.

4. The base station checks the PnP VLAN-ID table and tries to use all acquired VLAN IDsto send DHCP packets. After that, if the base station receives a valid DHCPOFFER packet,it exits the DHCP procedure and enters the subsequent PnP deployment procedure.

5. When the preceding steps fail:

l If the base station has only one transmission port, the base station repeats the precedingsteps on this port.

l If the base station has multiple transmission ports, it repeats the preceding steps on othertransmission ports.

Figure 3-9 shows the procedure for a base station to obtain VLAN information.

Figure 3-9 The procedure for a base station to obtain VLAN information

1. The U2000 or BSC sends an OMCH establishment request to the OM IP address of thebase station.

2. To forward the OMCH establishment request to the correct base station, the next-hopgateway of the base station broadcasts ARP packets to obtain the MAC address mappingthe destination IP address of the request. The next-hop gateway or the L2 network attachesVLAN IDs to ARP packets so that correct VLAN IDs are contained in the ARP packetsreceived by the base station.

SingleRANAutomatic OMCH Establishment Feature ParameterDescription

22

Page 27: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

3. The base station parses all received ARP packets and records the VLAN IDs contained inthe packets.

4. The base station attempts to send all DHCP packets with recorded VLAN IDs. Only DHCPpackets with correct VLAN IDs can reach the DHCP relay agent that installed on the next-hop gateway of the DHCP client.

3.2.9 Enabling and Disabling the VLAN Scanning FunctionIn SRAN7.0, the VLAN scanning function is provided for eNodeBs to solve the problem thatbase stations cannot acquire VLAN IDs in secure networking scenarios. After the VLANscanning function is enabled, the base station tries to send DHCP packets with random VLANIDs if it does not receive a response after sending DHCP packets without a VLAN ID and DHCPpackets with acquired VLAN IDs.

After the VLAN scanning function is enabled, some DHCP packets with invalid VLAN IDsmay be broadcast. In scenarios where different VLANs are not isolated, VLAN scanning imposesgreat impacts on the network. Therefore, this function is disabled for base stations of SRAN8.0or a later version by default. For base stations upgraded from SRAN7.0 to SRAN8.0 or later,you can run the SET DHCPSW command to enable or disable this function locally or remotely.

Here are a few example MML commands:

//Enabling the VLAN scanning functionSET DHCPSW: SWITCH=ENABLE; VLANSCANSW=ENABLE;//Disabling the VLAN scanning functionSET DHCPSW: SWITCH=ENABLE; VLANSCANSW=DISABLE;

NOTE

When the OMCH and service channels are disconnected, the SET DHCPSW command is used todetermine whether to start the DHCP procedure automatically to obtain the initial configuration informationor to restore the base station configuration. The SWITCH parameter indicates whether to enable thefunction of starting the DHCP procedure automatically. The VLANSCANSW parameter indicates whetherto enable the VLAN scanning function when the base station sends DHCP packets.

3.2.10 Saving VLAN IDsFrom SRAN8.0 onwards, VLAN IDs that are used for a successful DHCP procedure can besaved. Upon receiving a DHCP-ACK message, the base station saves VLAN IDs that are usedfor the DHCP procedure. A maximum of eight VLAN IDs can be saved. When saving a newVLAN ID if eight VLAN IDs have already been saved, the new VLAN ID will replace theearliest VLAN ID.

The base station can use the saved and learned VLAN IDs to send DHCP packets whenreinitiating a DHCP procedure during or after deployment of the base station.

The saved VLAN IDs will be automatically cleared after the base station experiences a power-off reset.

Figure 3-11 Automatic OMCH establishment

1. After a base station commissioning task by PnP task is created on the U2000, the U2000periodically sends an SSL-based or plaintext-based OMCH establishment request to thebase station. After an NE is created on the BSC, the BSC periodically sends a plaintext-based OMCH establishment request to the base station. In the request, the source IP address

is the IP address of the U2000 or BSC and the destination IP address is the OM IP addressof the base station. After the next-hop gateway of the base station receives the request, itbroadcasts ARP packets to the base station to obtain the MAC address mapping the interfaceIP address of the base station.

NOTE

l The next-hop gateway of the base station broadcasts ARP packets each time it receives a TCPconnection request sent periodically by the U2000.

l If the Use SSL option on the U2000 is selected, the U2000 periodically sends an SSL-basedOMCH establishment request to the base station. For the automatic OMCH establishmentprocedure in this scenario, see the "3.3.4 SSL Authentication on the OMCH" section.

If this option is not selected, the U2000 periodically sends a plaintext-based OMCH establishmentrequest to the base station.

l During a DHCP procedure, a DHCP response packet sent by the U2000 contains the target RATfor the base station. Upon detecting an inconsistency between the current and target RATs, thebase station changes its current RAT and then restarts. Afterwards, the base station reinitiates aDHCP procedure.

2. The base station obtains VLAN information. For details, see section "3.2.8 Schemes forObtaining VLAN Information for DHCP Packets."

3. The base station first sends DHCP packets with no VLAN ID and then DHCP packets withVLAN IDs. By exchanging DHCP packets with its next-hop gateway and DHCP server,the base station obtains the OMCH configuration data and validates the data.

4. The base station responds to the OMCH establishment request from the U2000 or BSC andthen establishes an OMCH to the U2000 or BSC.

NOTE

If the OMCH fails to be established, the base station automatically restarts the automatic OMCH establishmentprocedure.

3.3.3 Configuration Requirements for the DHCP ServerThe DHCP server of a base station must be configured with the following: A route to the IPaddress of the DHCP relay agent. Parameters to be used during the DHCP procedure. Theseparameters are contained in the DHCP packet headers, Option fields defined by RFC 2132, andsubcodes of Option 43 defined by Huawei. Table 3-4 lists the parameters to be contained in theDHCP packet headers. Table 3-5 describes common Option fields. Table 3-6 provides subcodeinformation in the Option 43 field.

When creating a base station commissioning by PnP task on the U2000, deployment engineerscan import configuration information listed in Table 3-6 into the DHCP server Deploymentengineers can manually modify the configuration information for the DHCP server only on theU2000 GUI. Deployment may fail if the DHCP server is not configured with mandatoryparameters listed in Table 3-6 or optional parameters that must be configured in certainscenarios.

3.3.4 SSL Authentication on the OMCHIf an OMCH uses SSL authentication, the base station must obtain an operator-issued devicecertificate before establishing the OMCH with the U2000. Figure 3-12 shows the automaticOMCH establishment procedure in this scenario.

Figure 3-12 Automatic OMCH establishment procedure

1. After a PnP-based commissioning task is created on the U2000, the U2000 periodicallysends SSL-based OMCH establishment requests to the base station.The source and destination IP addresses of the request packets are the IP address of theU2000 and the O&M IP address of the base station, respectively.Upon receiving the requests, the next-hop gateway of the base station sends ARP broadcastpackets to the base station to parse the MAC address corresponding to the interface IPaddress of the base station.

2. The base station obtains VLAN information.For details, see section "3.2.8 Schemes for Obtaining VLAN Information for DHCPPackets."

3. The base station attempts to first send DHCP packets without VLAN IDs and then DHCPpackets with VLAN IDs. By exchanging the DHCP packets with the DHCP server, the basestation obtains OMCH configurations and makes them take effect.

4. Based on the CA information obtained from the DHCP server, the base station applies foran operator-issued device certificate from the CA. For details, see the "3.3.5 Obtaining anOperator-Issued Device Certificate" section.

5. In response to the OMCH establishment requests from the U2000, the base station performsmutual authentication with the U2000 using the obtained device certificate. After theauthentication is successful, an OMCH is established between them.

In this scenario, the U2000 DHCP server delivers configurations to the base station. Theconfigurations include those described in the "3.3.3 Configuration Requirements for theDHCP Server" section and CA information described in Table 3-7.

3.3.5 Obtaining an Operator-Issued Device CertificateAfter obtaining the interface IP address and CA information, the base station generates acertificate request file. The base station then uses this certificate request file to apply for anoperator-issued device certificate from the CA (obtained through the DHCP procedure) basedon CMPv2.

During the certificate application, the CA authenticates the base station by verifying its Huawei-issued device certificate. Before delivery, Huawei base stations are preconfigured with Huawei-issued device certificates, which are deployed on the UMPT and the LMPT (available fromSRAN7.0 onwards). During the certification application, the base station provides the CA withHuawei-issued device certificates as its identity. The CA is also preconfigured with the Huaweiroot certificate.

Before the certificate application, the base station obtains from the DHCP server partialconfiguration data (such as the URL of the CA and the CA name) rather than the configurationfile. Therefore, the base station uses the default parameters described in Table 3-8 to completethe certificate application. The base station cannot contain parameters other than those listed inthe table during the certification application or in the certificate request files.

NOTE

For details about the certificate application procedure, see the "Certificate Management and ApplicationScenarios" part in PKI Feature Parameter Description for SingleRAN.

PKI redundancy is not supported during base station deployment by PnP. The active PKI server must workproperly during base station deployment by PnP.

3.4 Automatic OMCH Establishment by the Separate-MPTMultimode Base Station

3.4.1 NetworkingThe separate-MPT multimode base station is similar to many single-mode base stations that areinterconnected using the transmission board. The interconnection can either be based on thepanel or the backplane. Generally, the transmission board of a certain mode provides a sharedtransmission interface for connecting to the transport network. The base station in this mode iscalled an upper-level base station, and base stations in the other modes are called lower-levelbase stations. The upper-level base station acts as the DHCP relay agent of lower-level basestations.

Figure 3-13 shows the OMCH networking for the separate-MPT multimode base station thatuses panel-based interconnection. The upper-level base station provides two transmissioninterfaces, one for panel-based interconnection (lower transmission interface) and the other forconnecting to the transport network (upper transmission interface).

The automatic OMCH establishment procedure for the separate-MPT base station is similar tothe respective automatic OMCH establishment procedure for each single-mode base station.Lower-level base stations can start the automatic OMCH establishment procedure only after theupper-level base station completes the procedure. This section describes the differences in theprocedures between the separate-MPT base station and the single-mode base station.

3.4.2 Automatic OMCH Establishment ProcedureFigure 3-15 shows the automatic OMCH establishment procedure for the separate-MPTmultimode base station.

Figure 3-15 Automatic OMCH establishment procedure

1. Same as the single-mode base station, the upper-level base station follows the OMCHestablishment procedure described in chapter "3.3 Automatic OMCH Establishment bythe Single-mode Base Station and Co-MPT Multimode Base Station." The upper-levelbase station then obtains software and configuration files from the U2000 or BSC over theestablished OMCH. The upper-level base station activates software and configuration filesand then enters the working state.

2. Each lower-level base station exchanges DHCP packets with the DHCP relay agent (upper-level base station) and the DHCP server to obtain the transmission configurationinformation.

3. Each lower-level base station establishes an OMCH to the U2000 or BSC.

The DHCP servers of the upper-level base station and lower-level base stations can be deployedon the same NE or different NEs.

3.4.3 Configuration Requirements for the DHCP ServerEach mode in a separate-MPT multimode base station has almost the same configurationrequirements for the DHCP server as a single-mode base station. The only difference lies in thesetting of the OM Bearing Board parameter on DHCP servers of lower-level base stations, asdescribed in Table 3-10. For details about the configuration requirements for the DHCP serverof each single-mode base station, see chapter "3.3 Automatic OMCH Establishment by theSingle-mode Base Station and Co-MPT Multimode Base Station".

If the certificate for SSL authentication is notdeployed on the main control board of a base station, the main control board must obtain a valid certificatefrom other boards. In this case, certificate sharing must be used. For details, see PKI Feature ParameterDescription for SingleRAN.

3.4.4 Configuration Requirements for Network EquipmentEach mode in a separate-MPT multimode base station has similar configuration requirementsfor network equipment to a single-mode base station. For details about these requirements, seechapter "3.3 Automatic OMCH Establishment by the Single-mode Base Station and Co-MPT Multimode Base Station". This section describes only the differences in the configurationrequirements.

The upper-level base station acts as the DHCP relay agent to forward DHCP packets and as arouter to forward OMCH and service packets for lower-level base stations. The transport networkfor the upper-level base station needs to forward DHCP packets from the DHCP servers of lower-level base stations. Therefore, the upper-level base station and its transport network must beconfigured with data listed in Table 1.

Lower-level base stations Is configured with routes to the U2000 orBSC.Is configured with interface IP addresses thatare on the same network segment with IPaddresses of the interfaces forinterconnection with the upper-level basestations.

l Backplane-based interconnection:The IP addresses of the DHCP relay agent are as follows:1. OM IP address of the upper-level base station2. IP addresses of the upper transmission interface on the upper-level base station. If thereare several IP addresses of the upper transmission interface, the IP address used as the IPaddress of the DHCP relay agent must be on the same network segment as the next-hop IPaddress of the upper-level base station's route to the DHCP server of the lower-level basestation.

l Panel-based interconnection:The IP addresses of the DHCP relay agent are as follows:1. OM IP address of the upper-level base station2. IP addresses of the lower transmission interface on the upper-level base station. If thereare several addresses of the lower transmission interface, the IP addresses used as the IPaddresses of the DHCP relay agent vary by scenario:– If VLANs have been deployed for neither the OMCH nor the service channel on the

lower-level base station, the IP addresses of the lower transmission interface that is notconfigured with VLANs are used.

– If VLANs have been deployed for both the OMCH and the service channel on the lower-level base station, the IP address of the interface that is used by the OMCH to deployVLANs is used.

– If VLANs have been deployed for the service channel but not for the OMCH on thelower-level base station, the IP addresses of the interface where no VLAN has beendeployed are used.

In both backplane- and panel-based interconnection scenarios, if there are active and standbyOMCHs on the upper-level base station, the OM IP address in use will be used as the IP addressof the DHCP relay agent. For example, if the OM IP address of the standby OMCH is in use, itwill be used as the IP address of the DHCP relay agent.

3.5 Application Restrictions

3.5.1 Configuration Requirements for Base Stations and OtherNetwork Equipment

When a base station is to be deployed by PnP, configuration requirements for the base stationand related DHCP servers must be met to ensure successful automatic OMCH establishment. Ifconfiguration requirements are not met, automatic OMCH establishment may fail, leading to adeployment failure.Table 3-12 through Table 3-13 summarizes the configuration requirements.

3 BFDSESSION If the CATLOG parameter isset to RELIABILITY(Reliability) for a BFDsession, the BFD session isbound to a handover route. ifthe base station uses a logicalIP address as the OM IPaddress and the BFD sessionis bound to a handover route,the base station cannot bedeployed by PnP.

4 NE If the combination of theDID, subrack topology, andslot number is used as the BSID, the DID parameter in theNE MO must be specified.

5 IPRT/SRCIPRT If the OMCH is configuredwith active and standbyroutes, only the active routecan be used for the basestation deployment by PnP.The active route has a higherpriority than the standby one.NOTE

The smaller the number of theroute priority, the higher thepriority.

Equivalent routes are notrecommended for theOMCH. This is becausedeployment may fail as thebase station randomlychooses a route from theequivalent routes for theOMCH during deploymentby PnP.NOTE

Equivalent routes are routesconfigured with the samedestination IP address andpriority and they are used forload sharing.

Table 3-13 Configuration requirements for a DHCP server

SN Requirement

1 The public DHCP server can be configuredwith a maximum of eight U2000 DHCPserver IP addresses.If base stations of SRAN7.0, SRAN8.0, andlater versions co-exist in a network,configuring eight U2000 DHCP server IPaddresses on the public DHCP server causesa deployment failure because SRAN7.0 basestations support only two U2000 DHCPserver IP addresses. In this scenario,configure two U2000 DHCP server IPaddresses or deploy SRAN7.0 base stationsin non-PnP mode.

2 If the WMPT board of the NodeB needs to bereplaced with the UMPT board, the BS IDconfigured on the DHCP server must bechanged from being bound to the panel's ESN(mapping subcode 43 in DHCP Option 43) tobeing bound to the backplane's ESN(mapping subcode 1 in DHCP Option 43).

3.5.2 Impact of U2000 Deployment on Base Station Deployment byPnP

During base station deployment by PnP and subsequent commissioning, the base station needsto communicate with many application services of the U2000, including the DHCP service, FTPservice, and OMCH management service.

The preceding three services can be deployed on different U2000s and use different IP addresses.Therefore, network planning and base station data configuration must ensure normalcommunication between the OM IP address of the base station and the IP addresses of the threeservices.

Table 3-14 describes the impact of U2000 deployment on automatic OMCH establishment.

For example:

l When the U2000 uses the multi-server load-sharing (SLS) networking, the DHCP serviceis deployed on the master server, whereas the FTP service and the OMCH managementservice can be deployed on either the master or slave server. When the FTP service andOMCH management service are deployed on different U2000 servers and accordingly usedifferent IP addresses, the route configuration on the base station and the transport networkmust ensure that the IP addresses of the two services are reachable using configured routes.

OMCH networking requires that the NAT server be deployed only on the U2000 side, but notthe base station or BSC side. Figure 3-18 shows the OMCH networking in which the NAT serveris deployed on the U2000 side.

Figure 3-18 OMCH networking when the NAT server is deployed on the U2000

The IP address and port number of the U2000 can be converted by the NAT. Therefore, the routewhose destination IP address is the U2000 IP address on the base station side must use an U2000IP address visible on the base station side as the destination address. As shown in Figure3-18, the local IP address configured for the U2000 is 10.20.0.1. After the conversion performedby the NAT server, however, the source IP address in TCP packets received by the base stationis 10.10.1.1 instead of 10.20.0.1. Therefore, the route whose destination IP address is 10.10.1.1instead of 10.20.0.1 must be configured on the base station side.

NOTE

The IP address and port number on the base station side cannot be converted by the NAT because the DHCPserver uses the IP address of the DHCP relay agent (giaddr) or IP address of the DHCP client (ciaddr) asthe destination IP address for responding to the DHCP message and the giaddr or ciaddr fields containedin the DHCP message cannot be converted by the NAT.

4 ATM-based Automatic OMCHEstablishment for Base Stations

4.1 OverviewATM-based automatic OMCH establishment for Base Stations (corresponding to featureWRFD-031100 BOOTP) is used for the bootstrap of diskless workstations. It enables the disklessworkstation to obtain the IP address from the server during the startup. Compared with theReverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) that implements the same function, BOOTP ismore versatile and easier to use. BOOTP complies with the RFC 951 and RFC 1542 protocols.

BOOTP that is applied to the RAN system enables the NodeB to establish an IPoA path basedon the obtained IP address and default PVC. In this way, a remote OM channel can be set upbetween the NodeB and the U2000 or LMT.

The NodeB configuration data normally contains the data of the IPoA path. If the data is correct,the user can remotely access and maintain the NodeB. If the data is incorrect, BOOTP helps theNodeB to establish a correct IPoA path so that the NodeB can be remotely maintained.

4.2 PrinciplesBOOTP is used in ATM networking to establish an IPoA path so that a remote OM channelfrom the U2000 or LMT to the NodeB can be set up.

The configuration data required for setting up an IPoA path includes the Permanent VirtualChannel (PVC), transport ports carrying the PVC, and IP addresses.

The procedure of BOOTP establishment consists of port listening, port configuration, PVC setupand BOOTP request initiation, RNC returning the BOOTPREPLY message, and IPoAconfiguration, as shown in Figure 4-1.

Figure 4-1 Procedure of BOOTP establishment

4.2.1 Port ListeningPort listening enables the NodeB to listen to the configuration data of peer ports so that theNodeB transport ports that carry PVCs can be correctly configured.

The prerequisites for port listening are as follows: The physical links must be connected properly.(If a link works abnormally, ports are not configured on this link.); the transport ports of othertransport devices connecting the RNC and the NodeB must be correctly configured.

The port types applied to ATM networking are as follows:

l Inverse Multiplexing over ATM (IMA)

l User Network Interface (UNI)

l Fractional ATM

l Unchannelized STM-1/OC-3

The procedure of BOOTP establishment is different in the case of different port types. For theunchannelized STM-1/OC-3 ports, the PVC can be set up without port listening asinterconnection is not involved. The following describes the port listening function in the caseof IMA, UNI, and fractional ATM.

SingleRANAutomatic OMCH Establishment Feature ParameterDescription

61

Page 66: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

Port Listening in the Case of IMA/UNI

Through IMA/UNI ports, the NodeB can obtain the configuration data from peer ports bylistening to the IMA Control Protocol (ICP) cells of the peer end. According to the obtainedconfiguration data, the NodeB sets up an IMA group that carries the PVC (including the IMAlinks in the IMA group) or UNI links.

The NodeB first tries to listen to the IMA/UNI ports because whether the IMA/UNI ports orfractional ATM ports are used cannot be determined initially. If the listening fails, the NodeBlistens to the fractional ATM ports.

Port Listening in the Case of Fractional ATM

The fractional ATM link requires a bitmap of all types of timeslots contained in the link. If thetimeslots are inconsistent at the two ends, the setup of a fractional ATM link will fail.

Listening to the timeslots by using the exhaustive method will be time-consuming because thecombinations of timeslots are countless. To prevent this problem, the range of timeslotcombinations needs to be minimized. The combinations need to contain only the typical timeslotbitmaps commonly used by the telecom operators.

To listen to fractional ATM links is to apply the exhaustive method to these typical timeslotbitmaps, which is a way to configure the fractional ATM links. If the links work properly, thelistening is successful; if the links work abnormally, it indicates that the timeslot bitmap doesnot match the configuration at the peer end, and the NodeB needs to try other timeslot bitmaps.

The NodeB first uses the E1 timeslot bitmaps to listen to the ports, because whether the physicallinks connected to the NodeB are E1s or T1s cannot be determined initially. If the listening fails,the NodeB uses the T1 timeslot bitmaps to listen to the ports.

After the listening is successful, the PVC can be set up.

4.2.2 Port ConfigurationThe NodeB configures its IMA or UNI ports based on the configuration data of the ports at thepeer end. The configuration parameters of the peer ports, obtained through port listening, includeprotocol version number and IMA frame length.

4.2.3 PVC Setup and BOOTP Request InitiationThe PVC used by BOOTP is permanently 1/33, that is, its Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) is set to1 and Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) is set to 33. Such a PVC needs to be configured at theRNC or at the ATM network equipment. The BOOTP process is implemented on this PVC.

After the PVC is set up, the NodeB issues a BOOTPREQUEST message on this PVC to requestthe RNC to assign an IP address. The IP address will be used as the OM address of the NodeB.This IP address can be used for logging in to the NodeB and be used for maintenance purposes.

4.2.4 RNC Returning the BOOTREPLY MessageThe prerequisite for the RNC to respond to the BOOTPREQUEST message is that the RNC hasconfigured a PVC (fixed to 1/33) for the related NodeB and has obtained the corresponding IPaddresses.

Page 67: Automatic OMCH Establishment(SRAN9.0_01).pdf

On receipt of the BOOTPREQUEST message, the RNC replies with a BOOTPREPLY messagecontaining the assigned IP address. The message is transmitted over the established PVC (fixedto 1/33).

4.2.5 IPoA ConfigurationAfter receiving the BOOTPREPLY message from the RNC, the NodeB configures an IPoApath, which finalizes the BOOTP implementation process.

4.3 Configuration GuidelinesIn the IP network, For details about data to prepare before a base station starts the automaticoperation and maintenance channel (OMCH) establishment procedure, see 3900 Series BaseStation Initial Configuration Guide. For details about software and configuration filedownloading, activation, and commissioning on a base station after the automatic OMCHestablishment procedure is complete, see 3900 Series Base Station Commissioning Guide.

The following describes how to configure BOOTP in an ATM network.

Configuring BOOTP on the RNC Side in an ATM NetworkOn the RNC side, run the ADD IPOAPVC command to configure the PVC. When usingBOOTP, the PVC is to be configured with VPI = 1 and VCI = 33. The main parameters of thiscommand are as follows:

l CARRYVPI: This parameter specifies the VPI value of the PVC. It is set to 1.l CARRYVCI: This parameter specifies the VCI value of the PVC. It is set to 33.l IPADDR: This parameter specifies the local IP address.l PEERIPADDR: This parameter specifies the IP address of the peer end, that is, IP address

of the NodeB.

On the RNC side, run the ADD UNODEBIP command to configure the IP address of the OMchannel. The main parameter of this command is as follows:

NBATMOAMIP: This parameter specifies the OM IP address of the NodeB in ATM networking.

NBCTRLSN: This parameter specifies the main control board slot number of the NodeB. Whenthere are multiple main control boards in a base station, the RNC compares the slot number ofa main control board reported in the BOOTP process with the slot number specified by users. Ifthe reported and specified slot numbers are the same, the RNC returns a BOOTPREPLY messageto the base station.

Configuring BOOTP on the NodeB Side in an ATM NetworkThe BOOTP process can be implemented without any NodeB configuration data, and thereforeit is unnecessary to configure BOOTP on the NodeB side.

OML timeslot detection in TDM networking applies to the GBTS in Abis over TDM mode. Thisfunction is used to establish an OMCH (that is, an OML) between the GBTS and BSC.

5.2 ProcessAs shown in Figure 5-2, the process of OML timeslot detection in TDM networking consistsof two procedures: sending L2ML establishment requests and saving detection information.

Figure 5-2 Process of OML timeslot detection in TDM networking

5.2.1 Sending L2ML Establishment RequestsThe procedure for sending L2ML establishment requests is as follows:

1. The GBTS determines whether an E1 or T1 link is used for OML timeslot detection basedon the DIP switch of the main control board.

2. To establish an OML to the BSC, the GBTS attempts to send L2ML establishment requestsbased on certain combinations of bandwidths and E1/T1 ports that support OML timeslotdetection.

OML timeslot detection in TDM networking requires 64 kbit/s or 16 kbit/s bandwidth and canbe implemented on E1/T1 ports 0 and 1 of the main control board. Therefore, there are fourpossible combinations, which the GBTS tries in the following order:

1. E1/T1 port 0, 64 kbit/s bandwidth

2. E1/T1 port 0, 16 kbit/s bandwidth

3. E1/T1 port 1, 64 kbit/s bandwidth

4. E1/T1 port 1, 16 kbit/s bandwidth

If the 64 kbit/s bandwidth is used:

l For an E1 link, the GBTS sends L2ML establishment requests over 64 kbit/s timeslots 1through 31.

l For a T1 link, the GBTS sends L2ML establishment requests over 64 kbit/s timeslots 1through 24.

If the 16 kbit/s bandwidth is used:

l For an E1 link, the GBTS sends L2ML establishment requests over the third 16 kbit/s sub-timeslots of 64 kbit/s timeslots 1 through 31.

l For a T1 link, the GBTS sends L2ML establishment requests over the third 16 kbit/s sub-timeslots of 64 kbit/s timeslots 1 through 24.

Upon receiving an L2ML establishment request, the BSC selects a 64 kbit/s timeslot or a 16kbit/s sub-timeslot based on base station configurations, and responds to the request. By default,the BSC selects the last 64 kbit/s timeslot of an E1/T1 link, or the third 16 kbit/s sub-timeslotof the last 64 kbit/s timeslot. The last 64 kbit/s timeslot is timeslot 31 for an E1 link and timeslot24 for a T1 link.

If the last 64 kbit/s timeslot or the third 16 kbit/s sub-timeslot of the last 64 kbit/s timeslot cannotcarry an OML, run the SET BTSOMLTS command on the BSC LMT to set the timeslot thatis used to carry the OML, and run the SET BTSOMLDETECT command to set the OMLtimeslot detection function.

Upon receiving a correct response over a timeslot, the GBTS uses the timeslot to carry the OML.Otherwise, the GBTS attempts to establish an OML on other ports or timeslots.

5.2.2 Saving Detection InformationThe GBTS saves the combination of the bandwidth and E1/T1 port number that was used forthe previous successful L2ML establishment. Upon the next startup, the GBTS preferentiallyuses the saved combination for OML establishment, which reduces the startup time.
