30 OMC-R Compatible with SAN Architecture
30.1 DescriptionStorage Area Networks (SANs) represent the latest stage in the evolution ofmass data storage for enterprises and other large institutions. A SAN is astorage networking architecture that enables the more efficient use of storageassets by decoupling server and storage capacities with a dedicated network.
This feature can be also used to move the application(s) directory to externalFC storage.
Key advantages introduced by a SAN architecture:
Reduces overall cost of storage management
High availability
Any-to-any connectivity
Frees server capacity
Reduces LAN congestion
Storage not dedicated to one server
Increases data transfer rates
Enables server-less and LAN-less backup
File sharing.
30.2 Hardware CoverageThe client must have the SAN infrastructure which is compatible with Solaris 10:
Storage hardware: disk arrays
Fiber Channel switch: not mandatory for small configurations

31 New OMC-R Restore Strategy
31.1 DescriptionThis feature improves the backup/restore time and CPU usage. This featurepermits to avoid multiple copies of big database files. It is possible to avoidthe full backup/restore and to use instead only the incremental facility, basedon the fact that the machine is installed from start with DVD1, DVD2 andDVD3 on both backup and restore.
Using a central server for backup/restore is used to manage more efficientlythe storage implementing a method to delete old files that are no longerneeded at restore. Moving data between the server and clients is done usingoperating system services.
31.2 Hardware CoverageThe DVD1 and patches from DVD2 are hardware dependant, 3PP fromDVD2 and packages are machine type dependant (master, agent, etc.) andcustomizations are machine type and hardware dependant.
31.3 Feature ActivationTo perform a restore, the same installation steps as for the OMC installationmust be performed, and at the end, before the OMC start, an incrementalrestore must be done to obtain the same machine as it was after the lastbackup. Starting from the end of DVD installation and customization, all themodifications are saved as an incremental backup.

32.1 DescriptionIn order to decrease the cost of the transport in the BSS, Alcatel-Lucentprovides an alternative solution to the TDM transport, STM1 (SynchronousTransport Mode level 1) in the SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) network.STM1 can transport larger amounts of telephone calls and data traffic over thesame fiber wire without synchronization problems, using lasers or light-emittingdiodes (LED).
The basic unit of framing in SDH is the STM1 (Synchronous Transport Modulelevel 1) and operates at 155.52 Mbit/s, used in GSM solely for the transport ofE1 links.
Each E1 link is transported transparently (using asynchronous mapping) in oneVC12 container. One STM1 link can contain up to 63 VC12 containers. So,one STM1 can carry 63 Abis and/or Ater, each E1 of 2048 kbps is transportedseparately on one VC12 container. Four STM1 interfaces can be connectedon the front plate of the new TPGSMv3 board BSC and 63 E1 Abis/Ater perinterface make that all 252 E1 links to be transported on STM1.
Using STM1, the 9130 BSC Evolution can be configured without a LIU shelf.Mixed configuration, LIU-E1 and VC12-E1 is supported.
The benefits offered by this feature are:
Reduces the cabling effort
Reduces the space needed for cables and distribution frames
Simplifies cabling/assignment changes
Reduces cost on transmission equipment
Increases reliability and availability.
32.2 Hardware CoverageThis feature is available only for 9130 BSC Evolution equipped with TPGSMv3boards.
32.3 Feature ActivationThe feature is optional.

47 Remote BTS NEM
47.1 DescriptionThe Network Element Manager for a BTS (BTS NEM) is a software packageused for managing, maintaining and commissioning a BTS.
For IP transport, there are two BTS connection types:
Local connection
Remote connection
Local Connection
Local connection can be done via front panel NEM connector on the SUMboard (which needs to open the NE door with a key).
From this point, the PC-NEM is named ”Local PC-NEM”.
Remote Connection
This is possible from anywhere within the network, as far as the routing /firewall allows.
A “remote connection” can also be on a switch port physically located near theBTS, which needs the port to be enabled and physical accessible.
In the following figure,the wording “PC-NEM” is used for content relative tothe local and the remote PC-NEM.

Note: A new parameter, ’NEM-IP-Forwarding-inside-BTS (True/False)’, existsin the BSC Terminal in order to enable/disable routing to the NEMin each BTS.
Local and remote PC-NEM use IP to connect BTS.
There are two ways to connect the PC-NEM:
Serial connection to the BTS
Ethernet connection.
Serial connection to a BTS
Local IP connection using IP/PPP over RS232 for SUMA/P only.
Ethernet connection

48 Layer 2 Network Access
48.1 DescriptionUsing a Layer 2 transport network means that, despite the BSS, networkelements (BTS, BSC, TC, MFS) will still exchange IP packets. The underlyingfunctional architecture of the transport network can be seen as a single LAN,in fact, an Ethernet LAN. Taking into account the potential distance betweennetwork elements, this is based on "Extended Area LAN" concepts such theMetroEthernet. The primary impact on the IP-based transport is that all IPaddresses of the network elements belong to the same IP subnet, and no IProuter (Layer 3) is needed between two network elements.
48.2 Hardware CoverageThe feature is supported only in:
9130 BSC Evolution:

49 Security Enhancements for IP Introduction
49.1 DescriptionThe aim of this feature is to distribute the security functions over the BSSsubsystems as well as their interactions.
The security strategy for the BSS takes into account the following aspects:
The need for network element protectionA first level of protection is to secure write accesses to telecom and O&Mnetwork elements.A second level of protection is to secure read access for sensitive data.A third level of protection would be to secure everything, meaning readaccesses whatever the data flow.
The need for network protection (data flow sensitivity)Network protection is not to protect the network, but to protect data flowsgoing through the network against dishonest users with network access.The solution is to use secured VPN tunnels, via to the IPsec protocol.The BTS supports such IPsec tunnels. Other network elements rely oncustomer central site IPsec gateways.
The NE location (central or remote sites are differentiated).As opposed to customer central sites, where only customer authorizedpeople are present, remote sites are easily accessible to non authorizedpeople. In the BSS, remote sites are, in most cases, BTS sites. Therefore,the BTS has the support of the IPsec and the 802.1x protocol for Ethernetport access control. The 802.1x protocol forbids unauthorized clients fromusing the Ethernet ports of a server machine.

3BK 21609 AAAA TQZZA Ed.23a 213 / 288
52 3G Search Prio Wrong in PMO
52.1 DescriptionIn the current implementation when the MS enters the PTM, a PMO messageis sent, overwriting the GPRS 3G Measurement Parameters broadcastedin SI2Quater to the MS, especially the list of cells and the parameter3G_SEARCH_PRIO. This implementation is chosen to preserve timeprocessing in the mobile in order not to impact the on-going 2G packet transfer.
Otherwise the MS could interrupt its data transfer(s) more frequently to monitor3G neighbor cells.
This feature allows a reselection from GSM to UMTS to be possible inboth packet idle and packet transfer modes. The PMO message is notlonger sent at the beginning of a packet transfer and the mobile usesinstead the broadcasted neighboring cells and reselection parameters forthe reselection decision. This is accomplished by using a new value forthe following parameters: EN_2G_TO_3G_CELL_RESELECTION andEN_2G_TO_3GTDD_CELL_RESELECTION.

56 Interworking with LTE in the Packet Domain
56.1 DescriptionLTE (Long Term Evolution) is the evolution of 3G UMTS which targets veryhigh throughputs.
LTE means:
No more CS plane, voice is carried through VoIP
A flat IP architecture
Use of enhanced radio techniques, including MIMO & OFDM
E-UTRAN the equivalent of GERAN (2G) or UTRAN (3G) is a set ofeNodeBs connected to the same MME (Mobility Management Entity, part of
the Core Network).
The purpose of the Inter-working with LTE in the Packet domain feature is tomanage 2G versus LTE inter-working (in other words, the GERAN versusE-UTRAN inter-working), with the following requirements:
Support of 2G to LTE-FDD reselection
GERAN CS User Plane is not managed (no CS Handover to be managed)
Inter-RAT NACC is managed for the E-UTRAN to GERAN direction only
Manage cell reselection in blind search mode.
The management of the reselection algorithm by the MS/UE takes into accountadditional parameters (the so-called priority parameters) which are not onlyrelated to E-UARFCNs, but also to UARFCNs and 2G serving cells.
56.2 Hardware CoverageThe feature is supported only by 9130 MFS Evolution and 9130 BSC Evolution.

3BK 21609 AAAA TQZZA Ed.23a 241 / 288
59 Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) Protocol
59.1 DescriptionBidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a network protocol used to detectfaults between two endpoints over a particular link.
In an IP BSS network architecture, IP Abis traffic is often aggregated from BTSsites in several points of concentration (POCs) of an access network, beforereaching a central IP gateway, which is the starting point of a secured IPbackbone towards TC, BSC, and MFS.
The network access can be a layer 2 or a layer 3 access network. In mostof the cases, it is not owned by the mobile operator, and Abis is backhauledthrough leased lines services.
BFD is a tool to monitor the transport layer of the Abis through non managedtransport network.
The BFD IP address is used by the “next hop” router which implement the BFDprotocol The address is configured via the BTS NEM and is retrieved bythe OMC via through SNMP.
If the network access does not provide path resiliency capability , BFD can beused as trigger of path switchover between a primary and a secondary route.
59.2 Hardware CoverageThe feature is not NE dependent.
59.3 Feature ActivationTo activate the feature:
From the BTS NEM User Guide window follow the menu path:Configuration —> IP... —> BFD IP Address The "BFD Responder IP
Address" window opens.
Enter the required BFD IP Address and click on [ OK ].
The default value is 0.0.0.0 and means that BFD is not activated; that valueindicates that the operator does not provide any IP address yet and is notdisplayed on the OMC. The BFD IP address must be different from the BTS IPaddress.

61 9130 BSC Evolution Availability Improvement. Weekly Standby Reset.
61.1 DescriptionThe aim of this feature is to avoid the traffic disturbance due to the 9130BSC Evolution hardware failures.
There are 4 cases of outages due to hardware failures:
OMCP
CCP
TPGSM
MUX
To prevent the above 4 types of outages, the solution is to use a periodic resetof the standby boards of the 9130 BSC Evolution.
The periodic reset of the standby boards lead to:
initialize again the standby board. This remove the potential software fault
and leave the standby board in the clean state
launch again the self test on the standby board. This detect an inactiffault covered by the boot self test
This daily reset is launched on the following standby boards: OMCP, CCP,TPGSM, MUX
An OMC-R script is developed and scheduled in crontab for daily runing. Thescript manages a list of board types which is circularly parsed, one type beingpicked up from the list at each run. The script triggers the reset on the standbyboards of the chosen type on all or some specified 9130 BSCs Evolution knownby the 9153 OMC-R. The reset is triggered only if the concerned standbyboard is in IT status.

3BK 21609 AAAA TQZZA Ed.23a 257 / 288
63 STM1 Bidirectional on 9125 TC Equipped with TC STM1-IP Subrack
63.1 DescriptionSTM1 is a 155 Mbit/s interface, defined within the SDH family of interfaces(others are STM-4, STM-16…).
SDH is used for GSM solely for the transport of E1 links. The SDH is usedin the so-called channelized mode. Each E1 link is transported transparently(using asynchronous mapping) in one VC12 container. One STM-1 link cancontain up to 63 VC12 containers.
Due to the high traffic per STM1 link, protected access is usually used.Protection is done by automatic protection switching (APS) with one activeand one standby link.
Automatic protection switching (APS) is used to avoid the loss of a STM1link in case of a physical link (or termination) failure. The standards havedesigned two modes:
Unidirectional protectionIn case of unidirectional protection each end of the link transmits on bothlines permanently and each end of the link selects only one line for receptionof the traffic and monitors the received signal on that line. If the receivedsignal is faulty, then APS in that end will switch the reception to the otherline. At a given point in time, thus one end could use one line and theother end the other line for reception
Bidirectional protection.In case of bidirectional protection each end of the link transmits and receivesalways on one and the same selected line. Each end of the link monitorsthe received signal on that line. If the received signal is faulty, then APSin that end will switch the reception to the other line and will signal theswitch to the other end (in-band signaling protocol if possible). At a givenpoint in time, thus both ends use one and the same working line (exceptduring the short transitions).
The TC provides APS 1+1 bidirectional non-revertive implementation, withautomatic return to the unidirectional mode in case of APS protocol mismatch.
The requirement is to provide compatibility in terms of STM1 APS interfacewith NSN MGW.
This feature requires at least two STM1 interfaces to be activated on TC, this isbecause the Atermux and A interfaces cannot be mapped on the same STM1interface. Another constraint consists in fact that only 189 A interfaces from 192maximum possible can be mapped on 3 STM1 interfaces.
At TCIF side, the working (protected) lines will be configured on TCIF1 fromslot 0 and the protecting lines for TCIF2 from slot 1. This configuration shouldbe synchronized with the one made at ADM/MGW side.
63.2 Hardware CoverageThis feature is available only for 9125 TC equipped with TC STM1-IP subrack.

65 CS/PS Outage Detection
65.1 DescriptionThe objective of this feature is to improve the availability of the system. Thismeans that under normal conditions, the unavailability of the system is betterthan 5’15” per year. This feature runs in full IP mode, mixed mode or TDMmode.
A new module TOAD (Telecom Outage Detector), is introduced in both activeand standby OMCP as a basic LINUX process.
The TOAD checks the number of call establishment per minute. When itdetects there is no call establishment, the process launches an end to endtelecom tests towards Abis and Ater interface. If both tests fails, it attempts toretrieve the traffic by running the take over of the main boards, and finally, if thetraffic still does not come up, it runs a BSC reset.
The TOAD process runs the BSC outage detection and defense only on theactive OMCP board, mainly to avoid double defense. It sends the outagereport to the standby TOAD to assure the case of OMCP take over followingBSC outage detection.
The BSC distinguish the CS and PS outage, but the PS traffic is less stringent.The CS and PS traffic outage is observed in the same time.The activity of theBSC regarding the PS traffic only is very low without impacting the PS traffic.The BSC will not run any defense action in case where only the PS outage isdetected. The BSC will not generate additional BSC outage neither in case ofbad external transmission network nor in case of others BSS network elementdysfunctions (MFS,TC, BTS unavalaibility).

66.1 DescriptionThe connection between 9130 BSC Evolution and OMC-R can be over anIP network or via A interfaces. In case of connection over IP network, theextraction point is on OMCP. This feature is to provide a working connection toOMC-R in case of communication via A interface over MLPPP.
The aim of this feature is to improve the 9130 BSC Evolution connection towardsthe OMC-R, to save the basic requirement regarding the availability time.
This requirement is improved by the following mechanisms:
limitation of the FLT state (Power OFF) in cases of TPGSM
when no configuration is available, applying a default TPGSM configuration
by running TPGSM takeover on the PPP link alarm
by checking the connection toward the OMCR.

67.1 DescriptionThe aim of this feature is to cover most of the component of theTP board andthe datapath between those components. This application is ran right afterdriver installation, and before the MxPF process startup.
When the TP starts-up , the driver load error log file is checked , if there isno error, TP starts-up normally , otherwise , the TP send an alarm to BSCand wait for poweroff.
There are two type of diagnosis:
diagnosis without SS7, after all drivers installation except the TPGMSK
SS7 diagnosis, after all drivers installation and load PQ2 software, and it
imply that the drivers are loaded in two stage and the TPGMSK is installedat last.

68 BSC Patch Management
68.1 DescriptionThe aim of this feature is to improve the availability and usability of MX BSCpatch information
Due to the implementation of a Webmin module that:
generates a report
post-processes its output
and displays a report giving BSC patch information,
the operator can check:
the patch name
the patched software provider (the software delivered as a patch may beprovided by BSC or the MX platform development teams or it may be
provided by a third party)
whether the patch archive is present in BSC’s patch repository or not
whether errors have been recorded at patch install time
the type of ATCA boards concerned by the patch
the list of ATCA boards on which the patch is installed and whether the
installed software is corrupted or not.
However, MX BSC patch installation is not changed. That is, patches areinstalled manually, one by one, BSC by BSC, remotely from OMC-R, usinghelper tools delivered with each patch.

69 MC-Modules hardware capacity licensing
69.1 DescriptionIn B11, it will be possible for customers to dynamically configure up to 6 2GTRXs in a MC-Module. The licensing unit controlled by the Centralized LicenseManager is the number of TREs effectively mapped to MC-Modules.
Considering the pay-as-you-grow model and the shift of MC-Modules from2G to 3G/LTE over time, the quantity of TREs mapped to MC-Modules isexpected to fluctuate, requiring regular updates of the OMC-R licence filesfor a given customer.
To anticipate and optimally manage the licensing of MC-Module hardwarecapacity, more flexibility is needed in order to automate the license generation.
The flexibility of the license generation offered to customers is provided by anAlcatel-Lucent online web tool called LKDI, which tracks all the customeroptions transactions and provide a quick way for customers to get licenses.
In GSM, the following cases are handled:
regular license updates initiated by customers or customers representatives,
control by Alcatel-Lucent over the options that are transferred back
(returned in LKDI) in the case of migration, feature deactivation, or optionreshuffling between severs
automation of the license generation in LKDI.

3BK 21609 AAAA TQZZA Ed.23a 283 / 288
70 Improved Multi-GPU Performance
70.1 DescriptionIn order to be prepared to face a still increasing packet traffic, an improvedperformance in case of Multi-GPU is needed.
Until now the BSC chooses the GPU towards which sending an UL messageaccording only to load sharing considerations among its GPU boards andtherefore a part of the GPU processing is wasted in message rerouting.
In order to send the UL message directly to the GPU board handling thecorresponding cell, the BSC shall maintain a cell/GPU mapping table.
From this improvement is expected a higher capacity per GPU board andtherefore a reduction of the number of GPU boards for the same packetcapacity, at network level.

3BK 21609 AAAA TQZZA Ed.23a 285 / 288
71 Iur-g interface with enhanced control plane
71.1 DescriptionIur is the interface defined by 3GPP between RNCs mainly to allow softhandover inside RNS (without involving CN) in case of inter RNC handovers.
A first step of similar interface named Iur-g between BSCs and betweenRNC and BSC has been studied in 3GPP. Only some signalling informationexchange between a BSS and a BSC/RNC has been standardized. TheIur-g interface is based on a subset of procedures and messages of the Iurinterface of UTRAN, namely the RNSAP.
With the current implementation, one BSC supports up to 16 neighbour RNCs.
The new messages definition through an Iur-g like interface (Control plane) canoptimize 3G to 2G Relocation/HO.
Three procedures are defined on Iur-g+:
Information exchange procedure: in line with 3GPP Iur-g RNSAP TS 25.423.
The RNC obtains GSM cell capacity information from BSC.
Common Measurement Procedure: slightly modified procedure against3GPP Iur-g RNSAP TS 25.423 (more than one GSM cell per messages).
The RNC obtains GSM cell load indication from BSC. The availability ofGSM target cell capacity and load allows the RNC to trigger a handover
toward a GSM cell in which the handover will be probably successful.
Radio resource reserve handover procedure: specific procedure not definedin 3GPP, to reduce the handover preparation time and to trigger earlier the
intersystem TD-SDCMA -> GSM handover in the UE. This procedure allowsthe source RNC to request directly the BSC to allocate in advance the radio
resource needed in the target BSS for a just triggered external TD ->GSM handover. This anticipation allows the RNC to trigger the handover
command toward the UE earlier (before the receipt of RELOCATIONCOMMAND from CN). Consequently, the handover preparation time is
reduced, and consequently the time critical intersystem handover has
better probability to succeed.
