Radio Frequency Interference Statement The Base Transceiver Station (BTS) equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class A digital device, pursuant to ETSI EN 301 489-1 rules and Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in commercial, business and industrial environments. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at the user's own expense. BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Legal Rights FCC Radiation Hazard Warning To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements in Section 1.1307 and 2.1091 of FCC Rules, the antenna used for this transmitter must be fixed-mounted on outdoor permanent structures with a separation distance of at least 2 meters from all persons. Canadian Radio Standards Specifications (RSS) Compliance Statement This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed in Section 1.4.6 of this manual (“5 GHz Antennas” on page 25), and having a maximum gain of 17 dBi. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 17 dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication. R&TTE Compliance Statement This equipment complies with the appropriate essential requirements of Article 3 of the R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EC. Safety Considerations - General For the following safety considerations, “Instrument” means the BreezeMAX units' components and their cables. Grounding BTS chassis, Power Feeders and Outdoor Units are required to be bonded to protective grounding using the bonding stud or screw provided with each unit. Safety Considerations - DC Powered Equipment CAUTION ATTENTION Risk of electric shock and energy hazard. Risque de décharge électrique et d'electrocution. Restricted Access Area: The DC powered equipment should only be installed in a Restricted Access Area. Installation Codes: The equipment must be installed according to the latest edition of the country national electrical codes. For North America, equipment must be installed in accordance with the US National Electrical Code and the Canadian Electrical Code. BreezeMAX Extreme xi System Manual Legal Rights Overcurrent Protection: A readily accessible Listed branch circuit overcurrent protective device, rated 60A for the BTS or 20A for the Power Feeder, must be incorporated in the building wiring. CAUTION: This equipment is designed to permit connection between the earthed conductor of the DC supply circuit and the grounding conductor at the equipment. See installation instructions. The equipment must be connected directly to the DC Supply System grounding electrode conductor. All equipment in the immediate vicinity must be grounded in the same way, and not be grounded elsewhere. The DC supply system is to be local, i.e. within the same premises as the equipment. There shall be no disconnect device between the grounded circuit conductor of the DC source (return) and the point of connection of the grounding electrode conductor. Caution To avoid electrical shock, do not perform any servicing unless you are qualified to do so. Line Voltage Before connecting this instrument to the power line, make sure that the voltage of the power source matches the requirements of the instrument. Radio The instrument transmits radio energy during normal operation. To avoid possible harmful exposure to this energy, do not stand or work for extended periods of time in front of its antenna. The long-term characteristics or the possible physiological effects of radio frequency electromagnetic fields have not been yet fully investigated. Outdoor Units and Antennas Installation and Grounding Ensure that outdoor units, antennas and supporting structures are properly installed to eliminate any physical hazard to either people or property. Make sure that the installation of the outdoor unit, antenna and cables is performed in accordance with all relevant national and local building and safety codes. Even where grounding is not mandatory according to applicable regulation and national BreezeMAX Extreme xii System Manual Legal Rights codes, it is highly recommended to ensure that the outdoor unit and the antenna mast (when using external antenna) are grounded and suitable lightning protection devices are used so as to provide protection against voltage surges and static charges. In any event, Alvarion is not liable for any injury, damage or regulation violations associated with or caused by installation, grounding or lightning protection. Disposal of Electronic and Electrical Waste Disposal of Electronic and Electrical Waste Pursuant to the WEEE EU Directive electronic and electrical waste must not be disposed of with unsorted waste.

This Chapter: “About WiMAX” on page 3 “WiMAX Network Architecture” on page 4 “BreezeMAX Extreme” on page 11 “Specifications” on page 21 BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description 1.1 About WiMAX About WiMAX Emanating from the broadband world and using all-IP architecture, mobile WiMAX is the leading technology for implementing personal broadband services. With huge market potential and affordable deployment costs, mobile WiMAX is on the verge of a major breakthrough. No other technology offers a full set of chargeable and differentiated voice, data, and premium video services in a variety of wireless fashions - fixed, portable and mobile - that increase revenue and reduce subscriber churn. WiMAX technology is the solution for many types of high-bandwidth applications at the same time across long distances and will enable service carriers to converge the all-IP-based network for triple-play services data, voice, and video. WiMAX with its QoS support, longer reach, and high data capacity is positioned for fixed broadband access applications in rural areas, particularly when distance is too large for DSL and cable, as well as in urban/suburban areas of developing countries. Among applications for residential are high speed Internet, Voice Over IP telephony and streaming video/online gaming with additional applications for enterprise such as Video conferencing, Video surveillance and secured Virtual Private Network (with need for high security). WiMAX technology allows covering applications with media content requesting more bandwidth. WiMAX allows portable and mobile access applications, with incorporation in notebook computers and PDAs, allowing for urban areas and cities to become “metro zones” for portable and mobile outdoor broadband wireless access. As such WiMAX is the natural complement to 3G networks by offering higher bandwidth and to Wi-Fi networks by offering broadband connectivity in larger areas. The WiMAX Forum is an organization of leading operators and communications component and equipment companies. The WiMAX Forum’s charter is to promote and certify the compatibility and interoperability of broadband wireless access equipment that conforms to the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.16 and ETSI HiperMAN standards. The ultimate goal of the WiMAX Forum is to accelerate the introduction of cost-effective broadband wireless access services into the marketplace. Standards-based, interoperable solutions enable economies of scale that, in turn, drive price and performance levels unachievable by proprietary approaches, making WiMAX Forum Certified products. BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description WiMAX Network Architecture 1.2 WiMAX Network Architecture 1.2.1 The WiMAX Network Reference Model Figure 1-1 shows the basic mobile WiMAX network architecture as defined by the WiMAX Forum NWG. Figure 1-1: Mobile WiMAX Network Reference Model Figure 1-2 shows the ASN-GW architecture for networks with multiple ASN-GWs (distributed network architecture). BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description WiMAX Network Architecture Figure 1-2: ASN Reference Model containing Multiple ASN-GWs The various components and entities involved in the networking architecture are described in the following sections: 1.2.2 Access Service Network (ASN) An ASN is defined as a complete set of network functions needed to provide radio access to a WiMAX subscriber. The ASN provides the following mandatory functions: WiMAX Layer-2 (L2) connectivity with WiMAX mobile station (MS) Transfer of AAA messages to the WiMAX subscriber's home network service provider (H-NSP) for authentication, authorization and session accounting for subscriber sessions Network discovery and selection of the WiMAX subscriber's preferred NSP Relay functionality for establishing Layer-3 (L3) connectivity with a WiMAX MS (i.e. IP address allocation) Radio resource management ASN-CSN tunneling BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description WiMAX Network Architecture ASN anchored mobility An ASN is comprised of network elements such as one or more base transceiver stations and one or more ASN gateways. An ASN may be shared by more than one connectivity service network (CSN). 1.2.3 Connectivity Service Network (CSN) A CSN is defined as a set of network functions that provide IP connectivity services to WiMAX subscribers. A CSN may offer the following functions: MS IP address and endpoint parameter allocation for user sessions Internet access AAA proxy or server Policy and admission control based on user subscription profiles ASN-CSN tunneling support WiMAX subscriber billing and inter-operator settlement WiMAX services such as location-based services, connectivity for peer-to-peer services, provisioning, authorization and/or connectivity to IP multimedia services, and facilities to support lawful intercept services such as those compliant with Communications Assistance Law Enforcement Act (CALEA) procedures A CSN is comprised of network elements such as routers, proxy/servers, user databases, and inter-working gateway devices. 1.2.4 Network Access Provider (NAP) An NAP is a business entity that provides WiMAX radio access infrastructure to one or more WiMAX network service providers (NSPs). A NAP implements this infrastructure using one or more ASNs. 1.2.5 Network Service Provider (NSP) An NSP is a business entity that provides IP connectivity and WiMAX services to WiMAX subscribers compliant with the established service level agreement. The NSP concept is an extension of the Internet service provider (ISP) concept, providing network services beyond Internet access. To provide these services, an BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description WiMAX Network Architecture NSP establishes contractual agreements with one or more NAPs. An NSP may also establish roaming agreements with other NSPs and contractual agreements with third-party application providers (e.g. ASP, ISP) for the delivery of WiMAX services to subscribers. From a WiMAX subscriber standpoint, an NSP may be classified as a home or visited NSP. 1.2.6 Base Station (BS) The WiMAX BS is an entity that implements the WiMAX MAC and PHY in compliance with the IEEE 802.16e standard. A BS operates on one frequency assignment, and incorporates scheduler functions for uplink and downlink resources. The basic functionality of the BS includes: IEEE 802.16e OFDMA PHY/MAC entity R6 and optionally, if applicable, R8 functionality according to NWG definitions Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) relay Control message authentication User traffic authentication and encryption Handover management QoS service flow management entity 1.2.7 ASN Gateway (ASN-GW) The ASN-GW is a network entity that acts as a gateway between the ASN and CSN. The ASN functions hosted in an ASN-GW may be viewed as consisting of two groups - the decision point (DP) and enforcement point (EP). The EP provides bearer plane functions, and the DP provides non-bearer plane functions. The basic DP functionality of the ASN-GW includes: Implementation of EAP Authenticator and AAA client Termination of RADIUS protocol against the selected CSN AAA server (home or visited AAA server) for MS authentication and per-MS policy profile retrieval Storage of the MS policy profile BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description WiMAX Network Architecture Generation of authentication key material QoS service flow authorization entity AAA accounting client The basic EP functionality of the ASN-GW includes: Classification of downlink data into generic routing encapsulation (GRE) tunnels Packet header suppression functionality DHCP functionality Handover functionality The WIMAX Forum NWG has adopted two different approaches for ASN architecture - centralized and distributed: In the centralized approach there is at least one central ASN-GW, and the BTS operates in transparent mode, as shown in Figure 1-3. Figure 1-3: Centralized Network Reference Model BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description WiMAX Network Architecture In the distributed approach, the BTS operates in ASN-GW mode, as shown in Figure 1-4. Figure 1-4: Distributed Network Reference Model Alvarion believes in providing operators with the flexibility to select the mobile WiMAX network topology that best suits their needs and existing network architecture. Therefore, BreezeMAX Extreme is designed to support both distributed and centralized topology approaches according to WiMAX Forum NWG profile C. 1.2.8 Reference Points Reference point R1 consists of the protocols and procedures between the MS and ASN as per the air-interface (PHY and MAC) specifications (IEEE 802.16e). Reference point R2 consists of protocols and procedures between the MS and CSN associated with authentication, services authorization and IP host configuration management. This reference point is logical in that it does not reflect a direct protocol interface between the MS and CSN. The authentication part of reference point R2 runs between the MS and CSN operated by the home NSP, however, the ASN and CSN operated by the visited NSP may partially process the aforementioned procedures and mechanisms. Reference point R2 might support IP host configuration management running between the MS and CSN (operated by either the home NSP or visited NSP). BreezeMAX Extreme System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description WiMAX Network Architecture Reference point R3 consists of the set of control plane protocols between the ASN and CSN to support AAA, policy enforcement and mobility management capabilities. It also encompasses the bearer plane methods (e.g. tunneling) to transfer user data between the ASN and CSN. Reference point R4 consists of the set of control and bearer plane protocols originating/terminating in various functional entities of an ASN that coordinate MS mobility between ASNs and ASN-GWs. R4 is the only interoperable reference point between similar or heterogeneous ASNs. Reference point R5 consists of the set of control plane and bearer plane protocols for internet working between the CSN operated by the home NSP and that operated by a visited NSP. Reference point R6 consists of the set of control and bearer plane protocols for communication between the BS and ASN-GW. The bearer plane consists of an intra-ASN data path between the BS and ASN gateway. The control plane includes protocols for data path establishment, modification and release control in accordance with the MS mobility events. Reference point R8 (if supported) consists of the set of control plane message flows and optional bearer plane data flows between the base stations to ensure a fast and seamless handover. The bearer plane consists of protocols that allow data transfer between base stations involved in the handover of a certain MS. It is important to note that all reference points are logical and do not necessarily imply a physical or even direct connection. For instance, the R4 reference point between ASN-GWs might be implemented across the NAP internal transport IP network, in which case R4 traffic might traverse several routers from the source to the destination ASN-GW.

The External ASN-GW working mode is supported by the “unlimited” model. In the Limited model it is available only if the applicable license is installed. Following is a description of each of these working modes: 1.3.3.1 Embedded Distributed ASN-GW Local Authentication The ASN-GW functionality resides in the BTS (distributed architecture). Service components (Service Profiles and Service Flows) are configured in the internal ASN-GW of each BTS. MSs list and services provisioning including authentication are managed locally by the internal ASN-GW (AAA server not needed), based on the SU MAC address. Figure 1-6: Embedded Distributed ASN-GW Local Authentication Network Architecture BreezeMAX Extreme 13 System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description 1.3.3.2 BreezeMAX Extreme Embedded Distributed ASN-GW Centralized Authentication The ASN-GW functionality resides in the BTS (distributed architecture). Service components (Service Profiles and Service Flows) are configured locally in the BTS. MS authentication and service provisioning are managed centrally by an external AAA server, based on user credentials (user name and password). Figure 1-7: Embedded Distributed ASN-GW Centralized Authentication Network Architecture 1.3.3.3 External ASN-GW The ASN-GW is a separate entity (centralized architecture) that communicates with the BTS over R6 interface. Service components (Service Profiles and Service Flows) are configured in the external ASN-GW. MS authentication and services provisioning are managed by a centralized AAA server, based on user credentials (user name and password). BreezeMAX Extreme 14 System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description BreezeMAX Extreme Figure 1-8: External ASN-GW Network Architecture 1.3.4 System Configurations In the current release the following BTS configurations are available: 1.3.4.1 Single Sector, Second Order Diversity Configurations Single Sector Second Order Diversity (1DIV models) units include two BSs connected to two internal radios with either an integral dual-slant antenna or two RF connections to external antenna(s). The basic 1DIV model units support only the Single Sector Single BS with Diversity operation mode, using a single BS to provide a bandwidth of 5, 7 (applicable only for 3.x GHz units), or 10 MHz per sector. 1DIV units with a license for 20 MHz bandwidth support also the Single Sector Dual BS with Diversity operation mode, using also the second BS to provide a total bandwidth of 14 (applicable only for 3.x GHz units) or 20 MHz per sector. A dual-slant antenna (internal or external) or two external antennas support second order diversity with MIMO in the downlink and MRC in the uplink. BreezeMAX Extreme 15 System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description BreezeMAX Extreme Figure 1-9: Single Sector Single BS with Diversity Operation Mode Figure 1-10: Single Sector Dual BS with Diversity Operation Mode BreezeMAX Extreme 16 System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description 1.3.4.2 BreezeMAX Extreme Single Sector, No Diversity Configurations Single Sector No Diversity (1SIS model) units include two BSs connected to a single internal radio with either an RF connection to an external antenna or (in 4.9/5.4 GHz units only) an integral dual slant antenna using the same slant as the PRO 5100 series CPEs. The basic 1SIS model units support only the Single Sector Single BS no Diversity operation mode, using a single BS to provide a bandwidth of 5, 7 (applicable only for 3.x GHz units), or 10 MHz per sector. 1SIS units with a license for 20 MHz bandwidth support also the Single Sector Dual BS no Diversity operation mode, using also the second BS to provide a total bandwidth of 14 (applicable only for 3.x GHz units) or 20 MHz per sector.

BreezeMAX Extreme 18 System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description BreezeMAX Extreme Figure 1-13: Dual Sector Dual BS no Diversity Operation Mode 1.3.5 Power Supply The BTS is powered from a 48V DC power source. Alvarion offers the PoE (Power over Ethernet) AC/DC power supply that can supply DC power to the BTS over the Ethernet connection to the DATA DC IN/OUT connector (this option is available only on the 5 GHz BTS units). 1.3.6 Radio Antennas According to radio band and configuration, BTS units are supplied with either integral antenna(s) or with connection(s) to external antenna(s). Alvarion offers a range of external antennas to support various deployment and coverage needs. 1.3.7 GPS Antenna GPS is used to synchronize the air link frames of Intra-site and Inter-site located sectors to ensure that in all sectors the air frame will start at the same time, and that all sectors will switch from transmit (downlink) to receive (uplink) at the same time. This synchronization is necessary to prevent Intra-site and Inter-site sectors interference and saturation (assuming that all neighboring sectors are operating with the same DL/UL ratio). BreezeMAX Extreme 19 System Manual Chapter 1 - System Description BreezeMAX Extreme The BTS includes an internal GPS receiver with hold over mechanism in case GPS is lost or satellites synchronization was not reached. The GPS clock required is 1PPS with accuracy of 10-11 and maximum jitter of 100ns. These GPS clock requirements can be reached by a GPS receiver when it receives at least 4 satellites. After initial synchronization, at least two satellites should be received to maintain sufficient synchronization. The system supports chaining of clock signals for up to six collocated units using a single GPS antenna. Alvarion offers two types of GPS antennas: High Profile, active high-gain (35dBi) antenna that can be installed at a distance of up to 25m from the BTS. Miniature 28dBi antennas that can be installed at a distance of up to 3m from the BTS.

CAUTION If due to either restrictions imposed by local regulations or any other reason you cannot use the entire frequency band supported by the selected Country Code, you should disable the Random Channel Selection option (see Section 4.5.4.5.9.1) and use the Usable Frequency option to define the frequencies manually (see Section 4.7.2.2.2.3). For example, when using the 5.4 GHz FCC Country Code, you may use either frequencies in the 5470-5600 MHz and 5650-5725 MHz bands (with FCC), or frequencies in the 5725-5850 MHz band. 4.5.4.5.7 DL / UL Ratio The DL/UL Ratio defines the ratio of transmit (downlink) time to receive (uplink) time, in percents. The available values are: DL = 75%: UL = 25% (not applicable for 3.x GHz units operating with a 7/14 MHz bandwidth) DL = 70%: UL = 30% (applicable only for 3.x GHz units operating with a 7/14 MHz bandwidth) DL = 60%: UL = 40% DL = 35%: UL = 65% The default is DL = 60%: UL = 40%. BreezeMAX Extreme 101 System Manual Chapter 4 - Operation and Administration 4.5.4.5.8 BTS Menu TCP Enhancer When TCP Enhancer is enabled, TCP ACK packets rate on the downlink (for uplink TCP data traffic) is moderated, thus increasing the TCP ACK rate on uplink direction for the downlink TCP data traffic. It is mainly useful in extreme asynchronous DL/UL ratios (e.g. DL=75/UL=25), thus maximizing capacity in both directions. The options are Disable and Enable. The default is Disable. 4.5.4.5.9 DFS/DCS The DFS/DCS parameters are applicable only for 5 GHz units. The DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection) feature is applicable only for units using a Country Code specifying that DFS must be used (DFS may also be enabled in units using Universal Country Code). Note that for certain Country Codes DFS support and Channel Availability Check Time may vary among the relevant sub-bands supported by the Country Code. Most parameters of the DFS and DCS features are managed at the sector level (see “DFS/DCS (5 GHz units only)” on page 170). The DFS/DCS parameters at the BTS level that are common to both sectors (if applicable) include: Random Channel Selection DFS Type DFS Frequencies Management Level 4.5.4.5.9.1 Random Channel Selection The Random Channel Selection parameter defines the method of selecting channels for scanning by the DCS and/or the DFS mechanisms. When the DCS mechanism is enabled and Random Channel Selection is enabled, the list of channels to be scanned is selected randomly from the list of all available channels in the relevant band according to the Country Code. The number of channels in the list is defined by the Number of Channels to Scan parameter (see “Number of Channels to Scan” on page 180). If Random Channel Selection is disabled, the list of channels will be defined by the user (see “Usable Frequencies” on page 180). If DCS is disabled and DFS is enabled, the Random Channel Selection parameter defines the method of selecting channels for the DFS mechanism. BreezeMAX Extreme 102 System Manual Chapter 4 - Operation and Administration BTS Menu If Random Channel Selection is enabled, a new channel to be tested is selected randomly from the list of all available channels in the relevant band. If Random Channel Selection is disabled, the new channel to be tested will be selected from the list of channels defined by the user (see “Usable Frequencies” on page 180). The default is Disable (use the Usable Frequencies list). CAUTION If due to either restrictions imposed by local regulations or any other reason you cannot use the entire frequency band supported by the selected Country Code, you should disable the Random Channel Selection option and use the Usable Frequency option to define the frequencies manually (see Section 4.7.2.2.2.3). For example, when using the 5.4 GHz FCC Country Code, you may use either frequencies in the 5470-5600 MHz and 5650-5725 MHz bands (with FCC), or frequencies in the 5725-5850 MHz band. 4.5.4.5.9.2 DFS Type The DFS Type parameter defines the DFS algorithm to be used. DFS Type is configurable only for Universal Country Code. The available DFS algorithm are ETSI, FCC, Normal ETSI, Normal FCC. ETSI/FCC: The algorithm searches (passive listening) for radar signals according to relevant ETSI or FCC regulations. To increase the probability of radar detection for compliance with the relevant regulations, additional silence zone is added to the uplink at the expense of slightly reduced throughput in the downlink. Normal ETSI/Normal FCC: The algorithm searches for radars according to relevant ETSI or FCC regulations. However, the DL/UL ratio is not affected (probability of detection is lower than required by the relevant regulations). The default is Normal ETSI. 4.5.4.5.9.3 DFS Frequencies Management Level The Frequencies Management Level parameter is not applicable if the selected Country Code does not support DFS. The DFS Frequencies Management Level parameter defines the method of handling the DFS Frequencies Status Table (see “Show Frequencies Status Table” on page 175) in units using Dual Sector Dual BS no Diversity operation mode. When set to Sector Level, the Frequencies Table of each sector is managed independently. When set to BTS Level, each sector uses information about frequencies (Radar Detected/Clear Channel) from the other one. BreezeMAX Extreme 103 System Manual Chapter 4 - Operation and Administration BTS Menu The default is Sector Level. 4.5.5 Unit Control The Unit Control menu of the enables changing the access passwords, resetting the BTS, reverting to the factory default configuration, managing the SW versions of the BTS and uploading/downloading files. The Unit Control menu includes the following options: Change Password Reset BTS Reset to BTS Factory Defaults SW Version Control Configuration Files Control License Files Control Monitor Inactivity Timeout 4.5.5.1 Change Password For security and control reasons, the Change Password option is available only for users with Administration access rights. The Change Password option enables defining the passwords for each of the three different access levels: Administrator, Installer and Monitor. After changing the password for a selected access level, you will be prompted to re-enter the new password for confirmation. NOTE The passwords do not change after performing the Set Factory Defaults operation. Valid passwords: 1 to 16 printable characters, case sensitive. The default passwords are: Table 4-4: Default Passwords Access Level Default Password Administrator admin BreezeMAX Extreme 104 System Manual Chapter 4 - Operation and Administration BTS Menu Table 4-4: Default Passwords 4.5.5.2 Access Level Default Password Installer installer Monitor monitor Reset BTS Select this option to reset the BTS. To avoid unintentional reset, you will be prompted to confirm the reset request. Changes to some of the configurable parameters are applied only after reset. Refer to “Parameters Summary” on page 223 for information on which parameters are changeable in run time and which changes are applied only after reset. 4.5.5.3 Reset to BTS Factory Defaults Select this option to set the BTS parameters to their factory default values. All parameters, excluding the access Passwords, BTS General parameters and BTS Connectivity parameters (required to enable remote management of the BTS) will revert to their default values after the next reset. Note that AAA servers and Authorized Managers will be deleted. Services (if applicable) are not deleted. Refer to “Parameters Summary” on page 223 for information on the factory default values of all parameters. 4.5.5.4 SW Version Control The BTS can contain two SW versions: Operational: Each time the BTS resets it will reboot using the version defined as Operational. Shadow: Normally the Shadow version is the backup version. Each time a new SW File is downloaded to the BTS, it will be stored as a Shadow version, replacing the previous Shadow Version. The typical process of upgrading to a new SW version includes the following steps: Download the new SW File to the BTS. It will be stored as the Shadow version. Reset and run the BTS from its Shadow version. Note that at this stage, if a reset were to occur, the BTS will return to the previous Operational version. If you want to continue using the new version, swap the Shadow and Operational versions. The new (currently running) version is now defined as BreezeMAX Extreme 105 System Manual Chapter 4 - Operation and Administration BTS Menu Operational, and will be used each time the BTS reboots. The previous version is defined now as Shadow. Each SW version includes two identifiers: SW File, which is the name of the downloaded SW file. SW Version, which provides the SW version number. The SW Version Control submenu includes the following options: Show Versions Show Activation and Status Parameters Load to Shadow Reset and Run from Shadow Set Running Version as Operational 4.5.5.4.1 Show Versions Select this option to view the current available versions and the running version: Operational SW File Operational SW Version Shadow SW File Shadow SW Version Running From: Operational or Shadow Operational Boot SW Version 4.5.5.4.2 Show Activation and Status Parameters Select this option to view details on the last requested Load to Shadow operation. The displayed details include: Process Status: The status/results of the last SW loading process. The status can be None, In Progress, Completed Successfully, or Failed. For a failed BreezeMAX Extreme 106 System Manual Chapter 4 - Operation and Administration BTS Menu process the reason is also provided. A process may fail due to various reasons including TFTP problem, the SW file may already exist in the device, the unit is running from the Shadow version, there is not sufficient memory space or a CRC error. 4.5.5.4.3 Load to Shadow The Load to Shadow option enables initiating a process of loading a new SW file to the BTS. The loaded SW file will be stored as the new Shadow file. NOTE If the unit is running from Shadow, the Load to Shadow operation is not allowed. The following parameters should be configured each time you want to initiate a Load to Shadow operation: TFTP Server IP Address: The IP address of the TFTP Server holding the SW file to be loaded. File Name: The path to and file name of the SW file to be loaded. A string comprising 1 to 80 characters. 4.5.5.4.4 Reset and Run from Shadow Select the Reset and Run from Shadow option to reset the BTS and run the Shadow version after power up. To avoid unintentional actions you will be prompted to confirm the request. 4.5.5.4.5 Set Running Version as Operational When the BTS is running the Shadow version (after selecting Reset and Run from Shadow), it will boot from the Operational version after the next reset. Select the Set as Operational option if you want to swap versions so that the running version will become the Operational version and will be the version to be used after reset. To avoid unintentional actions you will be prompted to confirm the request. 4.5.5.5 Configuration Files Control The Configuration Files Control submenu enables creating backup files of the BTS configuration and uploading/downloading a configuration file from/to the BTS. It also enables creating and uploading an Event Log file from the BTS. The Configuration Files Control menu also enables downloading a Country Codes File or a RFU Heads File to the BTS. The option to download these files enables loading an updated version of the file (if necessary) without the need to replace the SW version.
