Small Cell application and architecture

Application

The Alcatel-Lucent 936x Small Cell solution provides improved coverage, dedicated

capacity and extends the macro coverage.

It is made up of Small Cells plus a small set of cluster and core network elements for

interconnection between the Small Cells and the legacy 3G network core.

An end user can connect to the Small Cell solution with any legacy handset. The Small

Cells have been designed for:

• In building home (Alcatel-Lucent 9361 Home Cell)

• Enterprise (Alcatel-Lucent 9362 Enterprise Cell)

• Indoor public area (Alcatel-Lucent 9363 Metro Cell Indoor)

• Outdoor public area (Alcatel-Lucent 9364 Metro Cell Outdoor)

• Outdoor public area (9764 Metro Cell Outdoor)

The solution is based on a flat IP architecture that collapses many functions of the

traditional W-CDMA network into a device.

Elements are provided in the solution to allow a scalable interconnection to the legacy

W-CDMA network over the existing standardized 3GPP interfaces.

A real-time monitoring of backhaul bandwidth allows to take the appropriate action in

case of backhaul congestion. Quality of service information is considered when admitting

a new call. The call can be admitted, redirected to the macro network or ultimately

rejected

The solution provides support for circuit switched voice as well as W-CDMA packet data

and High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA).

The solution benefits are as follows:

• Improvement of coverage and capacity at lower CAPEX/OPEX

• Low latency

• Easy evolution to mobile IP, IMS, LTE

• Easy implementation

• Improvement of coverage and quality for voice and high speed data on 3G handset

• Cheaper communications, specific home tariff for all communications established at

home or in the office

• Simplification and convenience (single bill, single handset, multiple lines, content

sharing)

the Iu-CS / Iu-PS interfaces

• A management system which consists of the following elements:

– Alcatel-Lucent Home Device Manager or HDM

– Alcatel-Lucent 9353 Wireless Management System Small Cells or WMS Small

Cells

– Optionally the Alcatel-Lucent 9352 Wireless Provisioning System Small Cells or

Small Cell features

Small Cell functional overview

The Small Cell combines the traditional 3G Node B and RNC functions as represented in

the following figure.

The Small Cell is designed to support up to 32 active subscribers with 3GPP compliant

packet and circuit switched voice services and HSPA data services in the W-CDMA 850,

1900 and 2100 MHz band.

For home applications:

• The Small Cell is limited in the number of UEs that may be registered as authorized to

use the Home Cell. These are kept in an ACL (Access Control List) within the Small

Cell and used to allow only authorized UEs to “camp on” the cell and establish a call.

The ACL can be updated by the Small Cell owner or the operator. It may be disabled

by the operator to allow public access.

• As a standard, and for home application, up to 20 mW of transmit power is available,

sufficient to allow in-building coverage within the home environment. The

approximate cell radius is 30 meters, although this depends on the construction of the

building in which the Small Cell device is located as well as the prevailing RF

conditions.

The US V2 Home Cell device can be supplied with 100mW transmission power.

For enterprise and metro applications:

• Groups of Small Cells are used to cover the target areas.

• RF transmit power of up to 250 mW is available, depending on version and license

key.

Note: ACL and RF transmit power are provisioning data.

Small Cell features

The Small Cell provides specific facilities and features. Some of which are describes

below:

• Easy to install

The Small Cell device is a small, lightweight, self-contained cell unit, which is easy to

install and requires zero-touch configuration for Home products. The end-user is only

required to plug-in the unit and connect it to a functioning DSL. All other aspects of

configuration, IP connection or obtaining initial parameters, for example, are

automatic.

For other product types, a “light-touch” configuration is required.

• W-CDMA-compliant User Equipment

The Small Cell device allows the end-user to use W-CDMA-compliant User

Equipment (UE) in the home or in the office, and the network operator to provide a

seamless service from macro to the Small Cell network.

• Ethernet interface

The Small Cell provides a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet interface to an IP Transport

Network through an external DSL router. From V2.2 a 1000BASE-T port is available.

• Tone generation

The Small Cell device generates a special tone during voice call set up, to alert the

end-user that the call is being handled by the Small Cells. This means the end-user is

made aware that the call is charged at the Small Cells network rate.

• Emergency call support

The Small Cell device allows public access for emergency call establishment. An

emergency call is given priority over other services. In this scenario, the access

control list is ignored and an emergency call pre-empts an existing non-emergency

call. If the Macro cell is available, then the UE obtains service from the Macro cell. If

no coverage is available, then the UE goes into “Emergency Calls only” mode and

searches for any suitable cell, including the Small Cells, to “camp on”.

• Security

Air interface security, UE identity checking, authentication, hosting party

authentication, key agreement procedures, integrity protection, encryption are

compliant with the 3GPP standards. A firewall is provided within the Small Cell unit

to protect against malicious attacks. Secure Shell (SSH) and SFTP are provided for

secure management communication with the SCMS.

• Self optimization

The Small Cell unit monitors the surrounding network. It changes its Primary

Scrambling Code (up to 16 codes are provided at initial configuration) and adjust

transmit power to avoid interference. Power levels are periodically monitored and

optimized for maximum coverage and capacity without interfering with the

surrounding Small Cells and the macro network.

• Information message

The Small Cell network name is displayed on the user terminal.

• Operational effectiveness

2-3

The Small Cell device supports two performance monitoring (PM) lists and real time

alarm which enhances the operational aspect of the Small Cells network.

• National Location Lock

Enables the operator to control usage of the Small Cell device in unauthorized

countries.

• Appropriate quality of service

Identifies the Ethernet link associated to the Small Cell device to apply the

appropriate quality of service.

Specific features for enterprise or public applications

Four features characterize the enterprise or public Small Cell device:

• Small Cell group

A Small Cell group is used in small or medium enterprises, or in public areas where a

Small Cell device is not sufficient to cover the target area. The coverage is provided

by a group of Small Cells. All the Small Cells belonging to the same group have a

common extended Access Control list, if any, and the same billing definition

(LACx/SACx attributes).

• Small Cell to Small Cell CS handover

Handover CS voice calls are possible between neighbouring Small Cells within a

Small Cells group.

• Open access list

The operator can make use of Small Cells for hot spot coverage and offer access

similar to that provided in the macro network, without having to grant access to all the

Small Cells.

• The user capacity can be from eight to thirty-two users in steps of eight, depending on

the version and the license key(s) purchased.

• The Small Cell device can be equipped with two antennas that receive the same signal

to increase the uplink receiver sensitivity. Moreover the possibility to locate the

direction of the uplink signal originator enables cancellation of energy arriving from

other directions, which improves the reception quality.

• The Enterprise Cell and Metro Indoor and Outdoor Cells support 64QAM for HSDPA

from V2 to provide increased throughput.

• Power output is 100mW in V1.5 or 250mW from V2.

Enterprise Cell V2.1 has a power output of 20mW for small enterprise applications.

• For LightRadio™ the 9764 Metro Cell Outdoor access point provides an optional

WiFi access point.

Small Cell interfaces

The Small Cell supports logical interfaces and a single physical interface through which it

connects to an IP Transport network through a backhaul interface.

Alcatel-Lucent 9365 BSR Gateway

Introduction

The Small Cells Cluster solution contains a single gateway called the Alcatel-Lucent 9366

Small Cell Gateway. This gateway contains the Alcatel-Lucent 9365 BSR Gateway,

Security Gateway, IPC and AAA. The BSR Gateway implements the three following

logical elements:

• BSR Signaling Gateway

• BSR Voice Gateway

• BSR Packet Gateway

• AAA Proxy

• DNS/ToD

They are combined onto a single hardware platform. The BSR Gateway appears as a

single network element to the mobile network operator.

BSG functional overview

The BSR Gateway terminates the signaling interfaces going to the traditional core

network elements. Thereby it creates the notion of a single and virtual RNC.

This virtual RNC represents the Small Cell Cluster as a whole. The BSR Gateway is the

integration point between the Small Cells Cluster and the core network, which includes

the 3G-MSC for IuCS control plane purposes and the SGSN for IuPS control plane

purposes.

The BSR Gateway has the following roles:

• Signaling Converter, to perform the signaling translation between the SS7 and the

Small Cell IP domains

• Signaling Concentrator, so that a batch of Small Cell appears as a single RNC in the

operator's network

• Mobility Gateway, to track the position of the UE in the Small Cell domain

The BSR Gateway is also used to register legal requisition information to meet regulatory

requirements. Legal authorities can access to the following data through a web server:

• The Small Cell Internet Public IP address

• The Small Cell Factory Serial Number

• The port number of the DSL router the Small Cell connects to within the home

network

• IMSI of the UE

• Date, time and type of the event (SMS or call event)

9YZ-05614-0013-REZZA BCR4.3


BVG functional overview

The BVG acts as the “virtual” MSC router for the Small Cell cluster. It acts as the

“virtual” RNC router for the MSC. All user plane traffic passes through to the MSC

directly from the BVG, while signaling is handled by the BSG.

For circuit switched (CS) services, the BVG enables the separation of the user plane from

the control plane. Iu-CS signaling traffic passes through the BSG.

BPG functional overview

The BPG acts as a concentrator for the IuPS interface for a Small Cell cluster. It provides

a single IP address towards the SGSN from a “virtual RNC” which combines the BSG

and BPG.

The BPG performs port and address translation to enable routing to/from the many Small

Cells.

The number of BPGs per Small Cells Cluster depends on the number of Small Cells in the

cluster.

AAA Proxy functional overview

The AAA Proxy function is a standard interface to the security gateway. It helps the

security gateway to resolve authentication and authorization. It acts as a proxy to the

central external AAA server.

DNS and TOD functions

Domain name server and time of the day functions can be hosted on the BSR Gateway

hardware platform.

Hardware platforms

Up to BCR2.4.1 the BSR Gateway is supported by the SUN Server x4250 hardware

platform. From BCR3.0, the BSR Gateway is supported by an ATCA blade architecture.

3-3

Security Gateway

Security Gateway functional overview

The Security Gateway is a single network element that implements the following logical

functionalities:

• Firewall(s)

• IPSec router(s)

Firewall and IPSec router

The firewall function provides a Security Gateway/Firewall between the Small Cells and

the operators network, isolating the operators network from potentially harmful traffic.

The IPSec router provides secure IPSec tunnel endpoints to all Small Cells in the cluster.

The mapping is one or two IPSec tunnels for each Small Cell.

The following traffic passes through this tunnel:

• All signaling traffic to/from the operator's network elements

• All user plane packets

• Signalling traffic for the BSG, BVG and BPG functions

• All OAM traffic to manage the Small Cells

Having this centralized IPSec router avoids the need to implement IPSec on all the

network elements.

Both traffic inside and outside the IPsec tunnel(s) are subject to firewall checks.

Implementation

In previous releases, the Brick 1200HS provided the logical functionality of the

firewall(s), IPSec, BSR Voice Gateway and BSR Packet Gateway all on a single physical

network element.

In this release, the operator can use a third party security gateway or continue to use the

Brick 1200HS.

Security Gateway Management System

The Security Gateway Management System provides OAM functions for the Brick

1200HS Security Gateway.

NTP server

NTP server

The Small Cell - Network Timing Protocol (NTP) server provides the timing solution for

the Small Cell to keep the internal oscillator trained to the correct accuracy.

All Small Cells in the network derive their synchronization from the NTP server. The

server transmits NTP packets to keep the Small Cell synchronized with the network time.

This server guarantees a clock source stable in better than +/- 100 ppb.

The NTP solution can be provided by Brilliant Telecommunications or Symmetricom.

The Brilliant Telecommunications platform is the Zurich Z-1000 server. The

Symmetricom platform is the TP5000 server.

AAA server

AAA server

The Alcatel-Lucent 8950 Authentication, Accounting and Authorisation (AAA) is a server

which provides the Small Cell authentication function for the Small Cell cluster.

A Small Cell request to access the network involves the following steps:

1. The Small Cell creates an IPsec tunnel to the IPsec router.

2. The Small Cell requests the AAA to authenticate the request using a RADIUS

interface to the AAA.

The AAA performs the following functions:

• Controls the challenge-response protocol between itself and the secure authentication

chip in the Small Cell when the EAP-DS2460 authentication protocol is used.

• Interacts with the network to identify the Small Cell Factory Serial Number.

The AAA must be provisioned with the right information to authenticate parameters such

as the Small Cell, Serial Number and Pre-shared Key.

The AAA is provided with the adapted EAP plugin, to authenticate the Small Cell.

Note: In Small Cell V2, with the introduction of certificate-based authentication there

is no longer a need for a secure AAA server in the authentication process.

AAA and Small Cell Gateway

A standard interface is supported between the AAA* function of the Small Cell Gateway

and the AAA server. The AAA* function helps the Security Gateway to resolve

authentication and authorization. If the AAA* function cannot resolve authentication

itself, then it acts as a AAA Proxy to the central external AAA server.

DNS/DHCP server

Domain Name Server

There is a fixed mapping between a Small Cell and its IP address. Depending on operator

requirements this can be populated within the Domain Name server (DNS) to allow other

network elements to query the Small Cell address.

NEs use the DNS server to locate the IP address of other NEs within the network.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

The DHCP automates the assignment of IP addresses, subnet masks, and other IP

parameters.

When a Small Cell unit connects to the Small Cell Cluster, the Small Cell sends a

broadcast query requesting necessary information from the DHCP server.

The DHCP server manages a pool of IP addresses and information about client

configuration parameters such as the default gateway, the domain name, the DNS servers.

Upon receipt of a valid request the server will assign the Small Cell an IP address, and

configuration parameters such as subnet mask and default gateway.

Time Of the Day Server

The Time Of the Day server distributes the date and time of the server to the clients. This

function can be hardware supported by the Small Cell Gateway.

IPC

Iu Protocol Converter

The Iu Protocol Converter (IPC) is a functional element in the Small Cell network

solution for the support of circuit switched voice and data over ATM transport.

The IPC connects a Small Cell cluster to a 3G-MSC using the Iu-CS over the ATM

interface and to a GGSN using the IuPS over ATM interface. One IPC can support up to

eight Small Cell clusters, depending on throughput requirements.

The IPC performs the following functions:

• The IP to ATM conversion and vice versa for the IuCS and IuPS

• For IuCS, both signaling and bearer conversion

• For IuPS, signaling conversion

For the multiple media gateway feature, the IPC needs to support two media gateways per

MSC.

The IPC is only required if an ATM-based IuCS interface is required for the core network.

The IPC is not required for an IP-based IuCS interface.

Components of the Small Cell Management

Overview

The Small Cell Management is used for management of the Small Cell devices.

The architecture combines the following components:

• 9353 WMS Small Cells

• 9352 WPS Small Cells

• HDM

WMS Small Cells

This topic describes the activities and the data storage for the WMS Small Cells.

Actvities

• Generation of the Bulk CM file:

The Femto Adaptation Layer (FAL) of the WMS Small Cells generates the Bulk CM

file, which represents the initial model information base of the Small Cell. The file is

kept available one day after being collected by the Small Cell through Secured FTP.

• Support of Small Cell software:

Small Cell software is downloaded from the WMS Small Cells to the Small Cell when

necessary (configuration phase or software upgrade). The Small Cell software is

stored on the WMS Small Cells. The software is collected by the Small Cell through

SFTP.

• Small Cell Performances Management files:

Small Cell PM files are stored on the WMS Small Cells. Those counters are pushed

through SFTP every 24 Hours by the Small Cell . By default, the PM is not activated

on the Small Cell.

• Small Cell RF Trace files:

Small Cell records RF Trace measurements on demand of the HDM. The RF Trace

files can be collected manually by the user through SFTP.

• Small Cell faults files:

Small Cell records Small Cell faults in a log file. The log file can be collected

manually by the user through SFTP.

Data storage

The following diagram displays the data stored in the WMS Small Cells.

WPS Small Cells

This topic describes the objectives, backup function and technical implementation of the

WPS Small Cells.

Objectives

The WPS Small Cells tool suite provides users with tools to generate XML work-orders.

The workorders can be activated on the live network to implement a target configuration.

In the Small Cell network context, WPS Small Cells is used to create Small Cell profiles,

create the Small Cell clusters, create the locations and to complete the Small Cell

configuration tasks including mechanism to import/export the configuration between

WPS Small Cells and the WMS Small Cells server.

For Small Cell profile, the WPS Small Cells user creates a library of profiles that list the

majority of the parameters required for the configuration of the Small Cell. With the WPS

Small Cells toolset, this library is easily manageable.

For each Small Cell deployed in the network, the operator associates a given Small Cell

profile to specific Small Cell information such as:

• The IMSI.

• The IP address on the VPN (to be used inside the IPSec tunnel).

• The cluster the Small Cell must be associated with.

• The Security Gateway to be used.

The WPS Small Cells is used for the following tasks:

• Configuration management, offering tabular editor, CM XML import/export,

work-order synchronization, configuration audit, copy/paste, template management,

model check

• Small Cell profile management

• Cluster management

• Location management

Backup function

The backup function of the WPS Small Cells operates in the following manner:

• Back office periodically generates a backup of the configuration with all Small Cell. It

contains the data managed at a back office level (such as the geographical location

information in latitude/longitude/z-coordinate format, Small Cell serial).

• The WMS for Small Cells also periodically generates a network copy with all Small

Cell currently registered.

• Both configurations are merged in the WPS Small Cells.

Alcatel-Lucent SC

• Using the comparison capability of the WPS Small Cells, it is possible to retrieve the

Small Cells for which configuration is not complete, for example, cluster, security

gateway or profile is missing. You can update the uncompleted configuration using

bulk update mechanisms.

• A workorder in CM XML format is generated by the WPS Small Cells. You can

import the workorder into the WMS Small Cells to see all the Small Cell updates.

In addition, the WPS Small Cells checks:

• The internal configuration of the Small Cell, and

• The Small Cell configuration within a cluster and the BSG.

Technical implementation

The WPS Small Cells runs on a dedicated Windows based PC and is a Java based

application. It is a generic engine, which provides a wide range of configuration

management and reporting facilities.

HDM

This topic describes the following functions:

• Inventory management

• Firmware image management

• HDM policies

• Individual configuration of the Small Cell

Inventory management

All Small Cells managed by the HDM are identified by means of their TR-069 device ID.

This identifier consists of the manufacturer name, the manufacturer OUI, the Product

Class and the device Serial Number.

The HDM stores all TR-069 object model data passed in the TR-069 Inform message.

This includes device information (vendor name, OUI, product class, serial sumber), the

WAN IP address, the URL of the connection request and connection request

username/password.

The HDM can be configured to store any selection of supported (standard or vendor

specific) TR-069 parameters in its cached data records. They contain cached values of the

last known configuration of CPE.

In addition to the TR-069 object model data, the HDM provides storage for non-TR-069

“metadata” for the device. This metadata informs about the state of the device (for

example Activated/Non-activated, Enabled/Disabled, Last Contact Time) and about

provisioning set as the cellid.

It also contains subscriber-related information (user-defined User Tags) and

service-related information (user-defined Service Tags and Dynamic Variables).

Firmware image management

The HDM supports Small Cell firmware and software image management using the

standard TR- 069 two-stage approach. First, the device is configured to download the

image file from the File Server (FS) / WMS for Small Cells using SFTP. Secondly, the

CPE installs the software, reboots and informs the HDM that the new version is installed.

The HDM provides a specific User Interface (UI) screen for firmware image

management. The UI allows specification of firmware images with all the required

parameters. They can also be named and consequently be referred to by name, for

example when they are used as an argument in device operations.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................



Alcatel-Lucent SC

9YZ-05614-0013-REZZA BCR4.3


Operators can use the UI to perform the following tasks:

• Check whether a firmware version has already been defined in the system.

• Check whether any configured policies use the firmware before deleting this firmware

version.

• Configure a list of prerequisite versions for the firmware update. An upgrade is

possible only if the current version is in the prerequisite list.

Policies

The HDM provides some facilities to configure and manage the device by means of

policies. A policy is a rule inside HDM. It is composed of a policy trigger and a policy

action that contains a set of device selection criteria.

When the policy trigger is received from a device that matches the device selection

criteria, the HDM automatically schedules a device operation based on the specified

selection. A policy continues to run against targeted devices unless it expires or reaches a

failure threshold or retry count configured in the policy. Policies run only on devices that

are currently enabled and not locked by an operator for manual operation. The HDM

offers multiple ways to enable or disable the created policies (immediately, at a specified

date and time, for a define duration repeated daily, weekly, or monthly and so on). In

addition, the policies can be imported or exported in XML format (a use case would be to

get policies from the production environment without introducing user errors).

The results of the execution consists of a list of policy outcomes (whether each policy in

the list has been run, and if so, how many times it has run successfully or failed). The list

also provides details on the policy failure threshold (the number of devices on which it

had to fail before the policy was disabled), and whether that threshold was reached.

The HDM supports two types of policy triggers: instant triggers and event triggers.

Instant triggers are used to evaluate the list of targeted devices immediately. Event

triggers occur when an external event, such as a TR-069 Inform message, is received

from the device. A policy contains particular exit criteria, which provides specific actions

to be performed after successful policy completion.

The following actions may be included:

• Changing the value of one or more user or service tags. This action allows for a

“statemachine” to be encoded for service activation, for example, by changing the

value of the VoIP service tag from “disable” to “enable” after successful service

activation policy execution.

• Sending a connection request to the device. This action allows “chaining” of policies

together. In combination with the user or service tag value change, it allows

conditional execution of multiple policies.

Alcatel-Lucent SC

9YZ-05614-0013-REZZA BCR4.3




5-9

The following list is an example policy:

• Change parameter x from value 2 to value 3 for a list of 1000 selected CPE based on

criteria ABC (for example within a cluster) when the event “Periodic Inform” has

been received.

• Perform this task on a period of 2 days.

• Retry maximum 3 times per CPE.

• Stop the policy if 100 failures are reached.

• Define the policy priority as maximal.

Individual configuration

As described in the introduction section of this topic, HDM models the Small Cell and a

subset of its management model. HDM has extensive capabilities to identify groups of

Small Cell matching a given criteria (including an individual Small Cell ), and further to

apply specific policies and actions to that filtered set.

HDM supports making configuration changes and invoking actions to Small Cell through

the TR-069 interface for a small subset of the Small Cell MIB. The typical example is the

update of the local ACL. The dynamic nature of ACL updates is automatically controlled,

without manual intervention by the HDM operator. When subscriber updates are received

from the Customer System through the HDM API, the HDM transmits updates to the

Small Cell using the TR-69 Set Parameter Values command.

Interfaces of the Alcatel-Lucent Small Cell Management

System

Overview

The SCMS offers 3GPP OAM standards compliant interfaces that allow network

operators to manage Alcatel-Lucent Small Cell networks. The 3GPP compliant North

InTerFace (ITF-N) interfaces are based on the 3GPP standards, and the solutions offered

include support for the Alarm IRP as well as support of XML transfer of performance

counters files. In addition to standard 3GPP interface compliancy, the SCMS provides

other interfaces for integration into a centralized Backup and Restore solution, to a Health

monitoring system, to an Inventory solution and so on. The SCMS also interfaces to

customer care systems through Web services API and notifications.

Interface descriptions

The SCMS provides the following interfaces:

• Support for the Small Cell gateway alarms (BSG, IPC).

• Interfaces for integration into the network operator IT environment such as:

– Centralized backup

– Restore solution (Symantec Netbackup)

– Health monitoring system (TEC Tivoli)

– External RADIUS interface for authentication to external RADIUS server

• External LDAP interface for delegation of user identity management to external

LDAP system, supplied by Engineering Services.

• The Femto Adaptation Layer (FAL) in WMS Small Cells.

The FAL implements the functionality required to interact with the North Bound

Interface (NBI) of the HDM such as:

– Notification processing

– Bulk CM file creation

– HDM support during device registration and auto-configuration.

• East-West interface to ensure neighboring synchronization, for the initial start-up of

the Small Cell, between W-CDMA managing solution (WMS) and SCMS.

• The FS for the XML conversion of performance counters files in 3GPP R5 XML

format.

• Work order management. The work orders are CM format XML files used to send

provisioning data from the WPS Small Cells or from the operator’s IT system to the

WMS Small Cells.

The HDM interfaces provide the following functions:

• Acquiring of the ACL information (ALC type, list) from the Small Cell after device

registration and auto configuration steps.

• Web service APIs through the Northbound Interface (NBI).

The following items are covered:

– Device inventory functionality

– Device registration

– Metadata configuration

– Device management using pre/custom defined TR-069 functions, actions and

policies

All software APIs required to interact with the HDM NBI are provided by HDM

distribution:

– The NBI provides web service APIs. It covers assurance-related functionality (a

set of web service methods that can be invoked from the OSS on HDM) to act on

devices from OSS through HDM.

The web services interface is implemented with web services technology that

follows the WS-Basic Profile 1.0 standard that BEA WebLogic 8.1 uses. The web

services interface is provided in the form of a WSDL file (Web Services

Description Language).

– The HDM sends notifications (asynchronous events that are sent from HDM to

the OSS) on its NBI. These notifications can be interpreted as alarms and

converted to the appropriate format.

Notifications are implemented according to the JMS (J2EE) standard.

Note: ACL type means either the Small Cell local ACL or the ALC in the Small Cell

Gateway.
