nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 32 Installation Overview and Requirements2.1 Installation TasksThere are three tasks that must be completed to install a nano3G AP and make it ready to provide service: • Pre-Provisioning• Commissioning • Site installation These tasks can be completed in any order. In most cases, however, the most practical approach is to provision and commission an AP before final site installation. 2.1.1 Pre-ProvisioningPre-provisioning means to provide configuration details for a nano3G AP prior to site installation. As an AP’s configuration is stored on its serving NOS Server, an AP can be pre-provisioned at any time. This offers maximum flexibility for pre-provisioning an AP as far or as little ahead of site installation as is needed. Pre-provision a nano3G AP with the information it needs to allow it to provide service, such as a serving AC address, neighbour lists, operating frequency and network identity details.It is recommended to perform at least some pre-provisioning for an AP before on site installation. As a minimum, use the Create Site Wizard in the NOS Client to create a site and AP object on the serving NOS Server that will contain the AP’s configuration. If an AP attempts to connect to its serving NOS Server, but the NOS Server has not yet been provisioned with site details for the AP, the NOS Server will raise alarms about attempts to connect by an unknown AP.For more information about AP pre-provisioning, see 3 Pre-Provisioning a nano3G AP. 2.1.2 CommissioningUse the nano3G AP’s built-in configuration web page to configure the AP with the settings it needs to establish a connection with its serving NOS Server.This is done using a commissioning terminal, either before sending the AP out for installation or on site using a suitably prepared laptop.Pre-CommissioningThis is recommended for residential deployment. The benefits of commissioning an AP before on site installation are: • The site installation engineer does not need a commissioning laptop. • This also means that the site installation engineer does not need to know the user name and password for the AP commissioning web page. • If the AP has been properly pre-provisioned, the AP is effectively plug-and-play. • This also means that a nano3G S8 AP or nano3G S16 AP could be installed by an end customer, without help from a site installation engineer. The customer simply needs to provide suitable network and power connections.
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 4Note: For residential deployments, commissioning should have already been done at the factory or by the supplier. If in doubt, contact the supplier for confirmation.On-Site CommissioningThe benefits of using a laptop for commissioning an AP on site are:• If there is a commissioning error, this can be corrected immediately without needing to return the AP • If an AP has been in storage for some time, the required software build and/or ATAS package can be installed on the AP on site, without needing to return the AP to base 2.1.3 On Site InstallationPhysical installation of a nano3G AP at its operating site, including providing the AP with power and a suitable network connection that provides a backhaul path to the NOS Server and AC. If a nano3G AP has been enabled for service prior to the site visit, the installation engineer can make test calls immediately. Note: For some deployment scenarios, APs may be setup by end users. Generally, this may be the case for plug and play residential deployments, where the end user has some easy to follow setup instructions.Note: Due to the physical installation requirements of a nano3G E8 AP or E16 AP, which must be securely wall mounted in a location with adequate ventilation, it is recommended that an E8 AP or E16 AP is installed by a suitably qualified site installation engineer.
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 52.2 Requirements for All nano3G APsThis applies to all nano3G APs.2.2.1 General RequirementsRequirements for Commissioning• A commissioning terminal, which can be either a desktop computer or a laptop, with:• OS: Windows XP or later• Web browser: Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 or later• JavaScript enabled in the web browser• A short Ethernet cable for connecting the commissioning terminal to the AP • A temporary means to provide power to the AP while it is connected to the commissioning terminalSite Installation RequirementsAll nano3G AP models have the following general requirements for installation: • A permanent means to provide power to the AP once it is connected to the backhaul• An Ethernet connection to the backhaul via CAT5 Ethernet cabling• Access to a DNS service on the backhaul to resolve symbolic addresses• Access to NTP services on the backhaul to set the correct time and date each time the AP starts up • Access to a DHCP service on the backhaul to allow dynamic IP address configuration• If IPsec will be used to secure the interface across the backhaul, access to the relevant Security Gateway that terminates the IPsec tunnel• If a firewall is in place on the network an AP will use for backhaul, this must be configured to allow traffic to and from the AP - see the port usage section below

That is, they are initiated from the AP. Port usage has some dependency on whether or not the AP is using IPsec.With IPSec, the standard two ports are used:Without IPSec, the following ports are used:These ports are used and allowed through the firewall where IPsec is used:The following ports are allowed through the firewall independently of IPsec configuration. For example:AP > Firewall > DHCP ServerProtocol Destination Port Useudp 500 IPSec initial connectionudp 4500 IPSec operationsProtocol Destination Port Usesctp 29169 SCTP connectionudp 1024 to 1086 CS RTP to ACudp 1025 to 1087 CS RTCP to ACudp 1088 to 1150 CS Mux to ACudp 2152 PS GTP to ACProtocol Destination Port Usetcp 80 PM upload, software download, CRL downloadtcp 443 PM upload, software download, CRL downloadudp 53 DNSudp 123 NTPProtocol Destination Port Useudp 67 DHCP - not needed for static IP configurationudp 68 DHCP - not needed for static IP configuration
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 72.2.2 nano3G AP CoolingSpecial attention must be given to ensure a nano3G AP will meet its air cooling requirements in its installed location. Take the following points into consideration for the physical location of an AP: • All AP models must be installed so that they are upright, to ensure proper air will flow through the body of the AP to provide cooling.• All AP models must not be installed in enclosed spaces where air flow is restricted. This includes, but is not necessarily limited to:• Roof or ceiling spaces• Small cabinets• Tightly enclosed shelf spaces• When free-standing the nano3G S8 AP, the stand supplied for this purpose must be used, and the AP must be upright, as noted above. 2.2.3 Information Required for Pre-ProvisioningThis information will be used to configure an AP from the NOS Client. The parameters depend on the deployment scenarios:• Parameters for Enterprise Deployments• Parameters for Residential DeploymentsNote: It is recommended to pre-provision an AP before taking it on site, so that the AP can download its configuration when it starts up on site. OMC-R Client Login DetailsUser name and password for the NOS Client. To be able to configure an AP from the NOS Client, the user name must have Full Access to the NOS Server serving the AP and Full Access granted to its APs. See [OPM_415] for full details about user permissions.

The term HNB is used in 3GPP in reference to small cells. The HNB C-Id is used in the Register Request message to uniquely identify the AP within the AC. The value is also combined with the RNC-ID to give the 28 bit UC-Id (also known as TR-196 CellID) that is used on-air in SIB3.Use the same value in the dummy cell.RNC ID (mcIdentity) RNC ID of the AC - this is selected by choosing the BSMIS object for the AP’s site.AC address (acAddressinUse) IP Address or FQDN of the serving AC.MCC (mcc) Mobile Country Code.MNC (mnc) Mobile Network Code.LAC (lac) Location Area Code.RAC (lac) Routing Area Code.SAI SAC (sac) This is the SAI SAC (Service Access Code) which can be used by the billing system. If this is not used by the billing system, it is recommended to set this to 1.SAI LAC (saiLac) SAI Location Area Code which can be used by the billing system. This is a different value than the LAC set in the lacRacCandidateList for an individual AP. If this is not used by the billing system, it is recommended to set this to 1. UARFCN within (rfParamsCandidateList)The frequency on which the AP will operate. This should be determined by network planning.Scrambling code within (rfParamsCandidateList)The scrambling code assigned to the AP. This should be determined by network planning.RSSI scan bands (rssiScanBands_002)Specify which bands to scan with Network Listen, when performing RSSI detect and BCCH decode tests. Leave this empty to scan all bands supported by the AP hardware. Lat, Long and LCS uncertainty (lcsLatitude), (lcsLongitude), (lcsUncertainty)Latitude and longitude of the APs installation site, for RANAP location reporting
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 9Other Attributes - Enterprise DeploymentsThe following table shows some other attributes to consider for initial AP configuration. Apart from the static neighbour lists, which are usually configured individually, any of these can be in a general template for all APs or can be set individually..Parameter NotesCell Parameter Selection Method (cellParameterSelectionMethod)Determines whether values for cell parameters such as UARFCN, LAC, RAC, and CPICH TX Power are selected by Network Listen (NWL) or are configured via the management system.The default is configuration by the management system. In this case, cell parameters should be determined through planning, preferably informed by on site measurements. This is particularly appropriate for the enterprise APs, nano3G E8 APs and nano3G E16 APs and for nano3G S8 APs used in enterprise or SOHO environments. Neighbour List Population (neighbourListPopulation)This determines how the live neighbour list is populated. For enterprise and SOHO deployments, the recommended setting is STATIC_ONLY, which only uses neighbours entered in the static neighbour lists, as determined by network planning. Static neighbour lists, GSM and UMTS (staticGsmNeighbourList), (staticUMTSNeighbourList_001)These are complex attribute that specify GSM (2G) and UMTS (3G) neighbour candidates. It is recommended to enter these directly in the NOS Client. However, if a similar list has already been configured for a nearby AP, it may be advantageous to copy this attribute from a configuration file saved from the nearby AP, load this into the target AP and then make suitable adjustments from the NOS Client.See [OPM_300] for static neighbour list configurationNote: In the static neighbour list, the list must be ordered by best first to ensure optimal reselection and handover.Neighbour PLMNs (neighbourPlmns)If specified, this restricts the networks that neighbouring cells can belong to for populating the neighbour lists by specifying the MCC/MNC values.PLMNs To Sync With (plmnsToSyncWith)If specified, this restricts the networks that nearby cells can belong to for frequency synchronisation by specifying the MCC/MNC values.PM Reporting URL (reportingUrl)For reporting performance measurements to the PMS on the NOS.Diagnostic Reporting URL (diagnosticReportingUrl)Set the URL of the NOS Server diagnostics service. Replace oam.server with the IP address or FQDN of the server.reportingUrl (reportingUrl) Set the URL of the NOS Server measurement reporting service. Replace oam.server with the IP address or FQDN of the server.localTimeZone (localTimeZone)Set the timezone, in POSIX format, where the APs are located. This assumes that all APs on the same AC are in the same timezone, which is the most probable scenario. If APs are spread across several timezones, this can be an AP-specific setting. psHandoverEnabled (psHandoverEnabled)Whether or not PS RABs will handover between an AP and the macro network. This is disabled (false) by default.

Closed Access vs Open AccessSee section 2.2.6.IuUP Initialisation (iuUpInitNoDataSupported)If this attribute is set to TRUE (default value), the AP includes NO_DATA RFCs as appropriate in IuUP Initialisation frames.If this attribute is set to FALSE, the HNB omits any NO_DATA RFCs that would otherwise have been included.Network Listen Scan Interval (applyFrequencyCorrection)Set the interval for frequency corrections. Default is 28 days. For enterprise deployments use the OCXO option, this can be increased to any value.Realm Id (realmId) Allows a nano3G AP to include a configurable realm in the HNBAP Register Request message. This is only used by Iuh APs.Parameter NotesParameter NotesHNB C-Id (hnbCId) This is the unique ID of this AP on the serving nano3G AC. The term HNB is used in 3GPP in reference to small cells.

In this case, cell parameters should be determined through planning, preferably informed by on site measurements. This is particularly appropriate for the enterprise APs, nano3G E8 APs and nano3G E16 APs and for nano3G S8 APs used in enterprise environments. Configuration by NWL can be selected for APs that are deployed for plug-and-play installation by end users - typically only nano3G S8 APs. In this case, the AP configuration must include extended LAC/RAC and RF Parameter Candidate Lists. This is so that the AP can choose the best settings from the candidate lists according to its RF environment.LAC (lac) Location Area Code.

nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 12Other Attributes - Residential DeploymentsThe following table shows some other attributes to consider for initial AP configuration. Apart from the static neighbour lists, which are usually configured individually, any of these can be in a general template for all APs or can be set individually.Parameter NotesNeighbour List Population (neighbourListPopulation)This determines how the live neighbour list is populated. For residential deployments, the recommended setting is MERGE_STSTIC_AND_DETECTED, so that neighbours can be determined by Network Listen as well as network planning. Static neighbour lists, GSM and UMTS (staticGsmNeighbourList), (staticUMTSNeighbourList_001)This is generally not needed for residential deployments. Where APs use Network Listen (NWL) to detect neighbours. However there may be some cases where it is necessary to configure some static neighbours.See [OPM_300] for static neighbour list configurationNote: In the static neighbour list, the list must be ordered by "best first" to ensure optimal reselection and handover.Neighbour PLMNs (neighbourPlmns)If specified, this restricts the networks that neighbouring cells can belong to for populating the neighbour lists by specifying the MCC/MNC values.PLMNs To Sync With (plmnsToSyncWith)If specified, this restricts the networks that nearby cells can belong to for frequency synchronisation by specifying the MCC/MNC values.PM Reporting URL (reportingUrl)For reporting performance measurements to the PMS on the NOS.Diagnostic Reporting URL (diagnosticReportingUrl)Set the URL of the NOS Server diagnostics service. Replace oam.server with the IP address or FQDN of the server.reportingUrl (reportingUrl) Set the URL of the NOS Server measurement reporting service. Replace oam.server with the IP address or FQDN of the server.localTimeZone (localTimeZone)Set the timezone, in POSIX format, where the APs are located. This assumes that all APs on the same AC are in the same timezone, which is the most probable scenario. If APs are spread across several timezones, this can be an AP-specific setting. psHandoverEnabled (psHandoverEnabled)This is disabled (false) by default. This is the normal setting for residential deployments. Oscillator Synchronisation Timeout (oscillatorSynchronisationTimeout)The number of days an AP can go without resynchronisation before it raises the relevant alarm. Closed Access vs Open AccessSee section 2.2.6.Access Control List (accessControlList)Entries in the Access Control List are only needed if an AP is configured for Closed Access. The Access Control List is a white list of IMSIs that are allowed to use the AP.Each entry in the Access Control List also has an option to allow hand-in from the macro network. A UE that is on the white list for multiple APs can only be Allowed to do this on one AP.
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 132.2.6 Access ControlThe configurations for four common scenarios are described here:• Full open access (Enterprise or Residential)• Open access for Zonal AP (Enterprise only)• Closed access with CSG parameter broadcast and Access Control via the AC, which uses the AAA service (Enterprise or Residential)• Closed access using Legacy Mode, with Access Control via the AC, which uses the AAA service (Enterprise or Residential)Note: In all cases, a UE that needs to make an emergency call can access an AP for that purpose.Full Open AccessIn this scenario, any UE on the operator's network can use the AP.Use the following attribute settings:IuUP Initialisation (iuUpInitNoDataSupported)If this attribute is set to TRUE (default value), the AP includes NO_DATA RFCs as appropriate in IuUP Initialisation frames.If this attribute is set to FALSE, the HNB omits any NO_DATA RFCs that would otherwise have been included.Network Listen Scan Interval (applyFrequencyCorrection)Set the interval for frequency corrections. Default is 28 days. 1 day for VCTCXO. This is used for most residential deployments.Any time for OCXO.Realm Id (realmId) Allows a nano3G AP to include a configurable realm in the HNBAP Register Request message. This is only used by Iuh APs.Parameter NotesAttribute Setting NotesCSG Access Mode (csgAccessMode)Open This is the default for nano3G APs.No other settings are required.
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 14Open Access with Zonal AP FunctionalityIn this scenario, any UE on the operator's network can use the AP. However, the AP will notify the AC when UEs camp onto the AP, so that UEs registered for location services can be identified and, if appropriate, trigger some action. Zonal functionality requires the following attribute settings:Information about zone configuration and implementation and setting up subscribed services for GSMA OneAPI is outside the scope of this manual. Refer to manuals covering the nano3G System NOS for further information.Attribute Setting NotesZonal AP(reservedBoolean2)True When set to True, this attribute causes the Iuh 3GAP to request the IMSI from the UEs when operating in Open Access Mode. This IMSI is then included in the HNBAP UE Registration and De-Registration Messages between the AP and AC. CSG Access Mode (csgAccessMode)Hybrid Must be set to Hybrid as part of the mechanism that ensures the IMSI check takes place with the AC.Non CSG UE Access Decision(nonCsgUeAccessDecision)Query Causes the AP to perform an IMSI challenge to provide the AC with the IMSI.The AC checks the IMSI with the AAA service in the NOS, which always succeeds for access. The AAA service uses this information to inform any registered Zonal presence application.Access Decision Mode(accessDecisionMode)CSG Lite The AP transmits the CSGIndicator, CSGID, and HNBIdentifier (when available). This prevents foreign CSG-capable UEs from attempting to access the HNB.This setting does not invoke CSG based access control.Closed Subscriber Group Identifier(csgId)0 to 134217727 This is the Closed Subscriber Group Identity.This is broadcast in SIB3 when Access Decision Mode is set to CSG Lite. The UE may have a whitelist of CSGIDs, and may also permit manual selection of CSGIDs via the corresponding HNB Names.HNB Name(hnbName)Text This is an optional name of up to 48 characters.It is only broadcast (in SIB20) if it has a value and when Access Decision Mode is set to CSG Lite.Together with the CSG ID, this can be used to identify a CSG cell to a UE user.
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 152.2.7 Closed Access with CSG Parameter BroadcastThis is the recommended approach for Closed Access.A Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) identifies a cell to a UE in order for the UE to determine whether or not it should attempt to use that cell according to a whitelist of CSG identifiers stored by the UE. This is a 3GPP Release 9 capability, and may or may not be used by Rel 9 UEs. In this scenario, the AP transmits CSG information and as a result, CSG-aware Release 9 UEs that do not have the AP in their CSG whitelists will ignore the AP. However, this is not a full implementation of CSG-based access control.Note: This assumes that the operator has mechanisms in place to update CSG-aware UEs that need to use the APs.All other UEs will attempt to access the AP, but only UEs that are in the whitelist will be allowed access to the AP.Use the following attribute settings:Attribute Setting NotesCSG Access Mode (csgAccessMode)Hybrid The AP also accepts UEs that do not implement CSG.Access Decision Mode(accessDecisionMode)CSG Lite The AP transmits the CSGIndicator, CSGID, and HNBIdentifier (when available). This prevents foreign CSG-capable UEs from attempting to access the HNB.This setting does not invoke CSG based access control.Non CSG UE Access Decision(nonCsgUeAccessDecision)Query Causes the AP to perform an IMSI challenge to provide the AC with the IMSI (or IMEI for emergency calls).The AC checks the IMSI with the AAA service in the NOS, which checks the IMSI whitelist configured for the AP to determine whether or not the AP is granted access.Closed Subscriber Group Identifier(csgId)0 to 134217727 This is the Closed Subscriber Group Identity.This is broadcast in SIB3 when Access Decision Mode is set to CSG Lite. The UE may have a whitelist of CSGIDs, and may also permit manual selection of CSGIDs via the corresponding HNB Names.HNB Name(hnbName)Text This is an optional name of up to 48 characters.It is only broadcast (in SIB20) if it has a value and when Access Decision Mode is set to CSG Lite.Together with the CSG ID, this can be used to identify a CSG cell to a UE user.Access Control List(accessControlList)List of IMSIs and corresponding phone numbersThis is provisioned against an AP but used by the AAA service in the NOS.

This is a one-time option that is only available in the Create Site Wizard. Configuration FilesAn initial configuration file can be used to rapidly configure the AP via the NOS Create Site Wizard. This is can be an alternative or in addition to using settings from an existing AP or using a template. Additional configuration files can be loaded against the AP object after it has been created by the Create Site Wizard. If they will be used, the location of any configuration files must be known. Configuration files are described in section 4.AP TemplatesAs with configuration files, an initial AP template can be used to rapidly configure the AP via the NOS Create Site Wizard. This can be an alternative to or in addition to using settings from an existing AP or using a configuration file. Additional templates can be applied against the AP object after it has been created by the Create Site Wizard. For information on working with templates, see [OPM_415].
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 182.2.10 Information Required for CommissioningAll nano3G AP models require the configuration details listed in this section. Use this information to commission an AP from the commissioning terminal, so that the AP can subsequently connect to its serving NOS Server.It is possible to commission an AP before taking it on site. Note: For residential deployments, commissioning should have already been done at the factory or by the supplier. If in doubt, contact the supplier for confirmation.For connecting to the AP from the commissioning terminal: • User name and password for the AP web server - if necessary, contact customer support at ip.access for the current user name and passwordFor commissioning the AP:• IP Address or FQDN of the serving NOS Server• IP Address or FQDN of an NTP server• DHCP or static IP• If static IP is required:• IP address for the AP•Netmask• IP Address or FQDN of the default gateway• IP Address or FQDN of the Primary DNS• IPSec is optional, but if IPSec is required: • IP Address or FQDN of the IPsec Security Gateway• IP Address or FQDN of a CRL server• Optionally, Traffic Selector information (IP address and subnet mask)A traffic selector defines a range of IP addresses that are sent through the IPSec tunnel. This allows an extra degree of control over the traffic that is passed down the IPSec tunnel. Normally, the security gateway controls this range and no other configuration is needed.
nano3G AP Installation Manual Installation Overview and RequirementsN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 192.2.11 Other Items for CommissioningThe items in this section can only be used if the commissioning terminal is running a web server that provides a path to any ip.access AP software download packages. That is, the required .sdp files must be present on the commissioning terminal.Setting up a web server for this purpose on the commissioning terminal is outside the scope of this manual.Software ImageIf there is a requirement to update the AP’s software during commissioning, the relevant .sdp file must be present on the commissioning terminal. ATAS FileIf there is a requirement to update the trust anchors in the AP during commissioning, the relevant .sdp file containing the ATAS package must be present on the commissioning terminal, ready to be downloaded to the AP. The ATAS package contains augmenting trust anchors which allow an AP to trust specific security gateways.This will be necessary where the security gateway certificates are not supplied by ip.access Limited, to ensure the ATAS package is correct for the security gateway terminating IPsec.The .sdp file containing the ATAS package must be created for the specific security gateways used in each implementation of the nano3G System. This must be done in consultancy with ip.access Limited prior to system deployment.

If an existing AP, template or file was chosen, the these values may have been automatically selected from one of these sources. In all cases, any changes on this page of the wizard will override any automatically selected settings.6) If required, change the NAS entries. This is only necessary if the correct values have not been selected automatically. 7) Click the Network Listen Control Package:The number of entries within the lists in Network Listen Control Package will depend on how the AP is configured:• Static configuration: If an AP will have a planned static configuration, enter only one set of values for each list. That is, one LAC-RAC combination and one set of RF Parameters. This is typically the scenario for enterprise deployments where the parameters have been determined by network planning. • Dynamic configuration: If an AP will use Network Listen results to automatically select its parameter settings, in an attempt to choose optimal settings for its detected RF environment, enter multiple sets of values for each list. That is, multiple LAC-RAC combinations and multiple sets of RF Parameters. This is typically the scenario for domestic plug-and-play or SOHO deployments. Also, in this scenario, it is expected that an existing AP, template or file will have been selected which has pre-configured lists. If this is not the case, it may be more efficient to enter a single set of parameters in the wizard, and then either configure the AP object directly or load pre-configured lists against the AP object.

nano3G AP Installation Manual Configuration File PreparationN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 454 Configuration File PreparationThe attribute values for configuring a nano3G AP can be stored in an XML file, and then loaded via the NOS Client to provision the AP. This configuration file of attributes can be loaded when creating the site for the AP or at any time after that once the AP object exists. This section describes how to prepare one or more configuration files of attributes for provisioning nano3G APs. This can be done in combination with the Create Site Wizard and configuration adjustments from the NOS Client, according to whichever method is best suited for given configuration tasks. 4.1 Overview of Configuration FilesA configuration file is an XML file containing an AP object that has named attributes and the value for each attribute. Each attribute definition is of the form:<cd:attribute registeredAs="NUM" name="NAME">VALUE</cd:attribute>Where:• NUM is the Registered As number, as specified in the MIB for this attribute• NAME is the attribute name, as specified in the MIB for this attribute• VALUE is the attribute value, which must conform to the attribute’s definition in the MIBThe attribute types and values they may take are formally described in [REF_110]. Note: In the configuration file, the values of compound attributes, such as RAB types, are defined within brackets (). In the NOS Client, the compound types are the complex attributes that have multiple levels within the Navigation and Properties panes. To work with compound attributes in a configuration file, it is recommended to use the structure in the OMC-R Client as a guide to editing the compound attribute.Note: In [REF_110], there is a distinction between expert and non-expert attributes. As a general rule, it is recommended to leave expert attributes at their default values. The configuration file must contain the correct distinguished name (DN) for the target AP. The NOS Client will not load a file if the DN does not match. In the configuration file, the DN is the localDn field near the beginning of the file. To change which AP this file applies to, edit the last part of the DN which defines the connection instance (the site) and AP instance.Although a configuration file can be created from scratch, it is more practical to save a file from within the NOS Client from an object of the same type and then edit the file for the target object. The resulting configuration file can then be imported against the target object, which in this case will be an AP.Configuration files must be imported one at a time, but there is no restriction on the number of configuration files that can be imported to configure any given object. This means it is possible to create a generic configuration file, which contains attribute values common to all APs of the same type. Typically, this can be started by exporting the configuration from an AP that has already been fully configured, and then edited to remove non-generic attributes. Once the generic file has been created, it must be saved for each AP, with the correct DN.
nano3G AP Installation Manual Configuration File PreparationN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 46Optionally also create a file for each individual AP with additional settings particular to each AP. However, if the majority of required settings are in the generic file, it may be easier to simply load the generic file then use the NOS Client for fine tuning the configuration of an individual AP.Note: After initial provisioning from a configuration file the NOS Client can be used to set attributes or a configuration file can be edited to set more attributes, for example when using configuration information from a radio planning system. To obtain a sample file with all the attributes that can be configured, export a configuration file as described in section 4.2 and inspect its content.4.2 Create a Configuration File for nano3G APs4.2.1 Save Attributes to File for One APA configuration file can be created from an existing AP. It is recommended to do this in preference to starting a file from scratch.To start a configuration file by saving the configuration of an existing AP:1) Login to the NOS Client with a user ID that has Full Access rights to the required AP.2) Find the required AP within the APs area. Find the AC the AP is connected to (i.e. the BSMIS APs Per AC object) then locate the AP within its Site. Hence, drill down to the AP like this:Root > APs > BSMIS APs Per AC > Site > AP3) Right-click the relevant AP object and select Save Attributes to File. The Save Attributes Wizard will appear.4) Select To local file and use the browse button to choose a suitable directory on the client computer for saving the AP configuration file (the browser dialogue can also create new directories).

This is because the ATAS package in particular may be needed so that the AP can access the NOS Server through the security gateway. See section 2.2.11 for extra information about software and ATAS packages.This can only be done if the commissioning terminal is running a web server that provides a path to any ip.access AP software download packages. That is, the required .sdp files must be present on the commissioning terminal.Setting up a web server for this purpose on the commissioning terminal is outside the scope of this manual.5.4.1 Optional - Software DownloadUse the SW Download page to download a different version of AP software to the AP from the commissioning terminal to the standby memory bank. Then switch banks to the new software version, which restarts the AP. 6) Click the SW Download link on the left. The web page for downloading software will be shown. This also provides details about the current software installed on the AP. 7) In the text box, enter the URL for the SDP file stored on the commissioning terminal.

From this point on, the AP must be managed from the NOS Client, via the NOS Server. If the AP has not been pre-provisioned in the NOS Server, it must be configured before it is can enter service. See section 3 for information about AP provisioning.5.6.1 Finished On Site CommissioningIf commissioning has been done on site, return to the site installation procedure in section 6.2.3 or 6.4.5, as appropriate. 5.6.2 Finished Advance CommissioningIf commissioning has been done in advance of sending the AP on site, it is advisable to ensure that the AP will connect to its serving NOS Server prior to sending the AP on site. To do this:1) Verify that the AP has been pre-provisioned with a Site in the serving NOS Server. 2) Provide the AP with an appropriate network connection. If the AP has been commissioned to use IPsec, this means a network connection that will go via the Security Gateway, which is likely to require connection of the AP to an external network. 3) Power up the AP. 4) Use the NOS Client to verify that the AP has connected to its serving NOS Server.

In particular, ensure the static neighbour lists are correctly configured. See [OPM_300] for information on neighbour list configuration. 3) Spot check any or all of the following packages to verify the attributes are set to the correct values:• Cell Package•NAS Package• Location Package7.2.2 Automatic Stored ConfigurationsThis feature provides storage of a number of previous configurations for a collection of managed objects and provides a command whereby a user can revert the configuration of some of the system to a selected stored configuration. Each stored configuration is identified by:• The name of the user who made the changes represented by the stored configuration• The Date and Time (start and stop timestamps) during which the changes represented by the stored configuration were made• A description, generated automatically but which can be edited by the user, which provides information about how or why this set of changes were madeA stored configuration contains information about what changes need to be made to a managed object sub-tree in order to return its configuration to what it was at a particular point in time.The first time any managed Object is created, there is no configuration stored. Only when the Managed Object has changes applied will the configuration first store the original configuration and also the changed configuration. For each Managed Object there isa maximum number of stored configurations that can be stored. This number can vary depending on the Managed Object. To find out how many stored configurations a Managed Object is allowed, look in the Stored Configurations Package Attribute for a specific Managed Object.When a stored configuration maximum has been reached the oldest stored configuration will be deleted to make way for the newly stored configuration of a Managed Object.

Select its 3GAP Time package, then wait a few seconds for the Up Time attribute to update. Verify that this is at least 1200, which is 20mins, before continuing. This ensures the frequency crystal has had some time to warm up and achieve a degree of thermal stability prior to checking if it needs any frequency correction. If necessary, wait until the Up Time passes 1200 seconds.3) An AP must be locked to execute a Network Listen scan. Right-click the AP object and select Lock, then wait until a small padlock symbol is shown against the AP icon. 4) To execute a Network Listen scan, right-click the AP object, select Actions and then select Start Sequential NWL Scan. 5) When the scan is complete, view the results and verify there is some radio activity detected, and ideally some neighbour cells. This will confirm the radio is working.6) Only if a suitable macro neighbour has been detected, a correction can be applied to ensure that the oscillator frequency is correct. Select Actions and then select Apply Frequency Correction.Note: Assuming there is a suitable macro neighbour, this should be repeated approximately 24 hours after the AP is brought into service. This will allow time for the oscillator crystal to stabilize, at which time the frequency correction should be re-applied. 7.3 Bring the AP into ServiceOnce the AP has the latest software image, any additional configuration is complete and any frequency correction has been applied, it is ready for service.In most cases, a correctly pre-provisioned AP will start providing service once it has obtained its configuration from the NOS Server. These steps are only necessary when an AP is not yet enabled for service, or has been locked to apply additional configuration. An AP that is administratively Locked will have a small padlock symbol next to the AP icon. 1) To bring the AP into service, right-click the 3G AP object in the NOS Client and select Unlock. The padlock symbol next to the 3G AP icon will be removed.2) If the installation engineer is still on site, the engineer should make CS and PS test calls to verify the AP is providing service.

nano3G AP Installation Manual TroubleshootingN3G_INST_300 v292_1.0 for N3G_2.92 © ip.access Limited 2012 Page 908.3 Factory ResetA factory reset will delete an AP’s configuration except for the default set of these five parameters, as set on the AP’s commissioning web page:• Management Server URL, which is the address of the default SCP server• NTP server address• IPsec enabled or disabled• Security Gateway address (only relevant when IPsec is enabled)• Remote traffic selector address and netmask (only relevant when IPsec is enabled)Therefore, executing a factory reset will mean that the AP will reconnect to the servers currently specified on the commissioning web page. If any of these servers are no longer valid, for example something has been decommissioned, the AP may be unable to re-enter service automatically after a factory reset. If it necessary to change any of these settings, physical access to the AP is required, so that it can be connected to a commissioning terminal.Note: If the reset button is released before the factory reset starts, the AP will reboot. It will not return to the factory reset state.Note: If the AP has been disabled as in section 7.4. It will not be possible to recommission the AP. The AP will reconnect to the servers currently specified on the commissioning web page.8.3.1 nano3G S8 AP Factory Reset1) Use a thin rod to press and hold the reset button. 2) Keep the reset button pressed until the Service LED changes from blinking fast (50ms on, 50ms off) to blinking slowly (200ms on, 200ms off). The Service LED blinks fast (50ms on, 50ms off) until the factory reset commences, then it blinks slowly (200ms on, 200ms off). When the factory restore process is complete, the LED extinguishes and the AP automatically reboots, takes the fixed IP address and enables the web interface for commissioning.

N-User Configuration allows for a reduction in the maximum number of active UEs on a nano3G AP by controlling how many CELL_DCH users are allowed on an AP.The maxNumCellDchEues attribute reports the hardware capability of an AP. Below is a table with minimum bandwidth required to support a specific number of DCH UEs and vice versa. If the AP is configured to support a specific number of UEs in DCH then bandwidth limits should be set accordingly (AP will ignore bandwidth settings if it is lower than dictated by the DCH UE number)Each reduction in max users will reduce the max requirement for CS by 65Kbps in DL and 20Kbps in UL.There is no effect if the override value in maxNumCellDchUesOverride is equal or greater than the hardware capability.1) Log into the NOS Client and find the AP.

This only affects the DL as the AP does not control DL DSCP marking.Note: On the UL the AP is the source of the packets. Hence, prioritisation and bandwidth limiting occurs before DSCP marks are zeroed out by routers or ISPs.Note: Where APs use IPsec, the AP will inspect the inner packet, which should not have its DSCP mark removed, and should continue to function with the DBM DL limit applied.To set a limit on total AP bandwidth usage of the backhaul and prioritise CS voice traffic to ensure that voice quality is maintained, do the following:1) Log into the NOS Client and find the AP. The user ID must have Full Access rights to the AP.Hence find, Root > APs > BSMIS APs Per AC > Site > relevant AP.2) Select 3G AP Load Control Package from the Navigation Pane.3) Select the attribute max Downlink Backhaul Bit Rate (Kbps) and set to the relevant value.4) Select the attribute max Uplink Backhaul Bit Rate (Kbps) and set to the relevant value.5) Click Apply to save changes.
