2 Commissioning Prerequisites

The section describes the prerequisites of the eNodeB commissioning.

Requirements for the Equipment Statusl All parts of the equipment and related cables are installed properly. For details, see the

associated installation guide.l Hardware check is performed before the eNodeB equipment is powered on.

Requirements for the networkTo smoothly commission the eNodeB, the network equipment must meet the followingrequirements:

l The eNodeB is connected to the core network equipment MME or S-GW, which isconfigured with the interconnection data required for commissioning and can provide thebasic functions of the core network.

l The M2000 server is installed with the mediation software corresponding to the targetversion of the eNodeB to be commissioned.

Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2 show the typical commissioning network.

NOTE

l The lines in the preceding figures indicate only the connections but not the quantity and types of cables.

l Figure 2-1 shows a typical application of the commissioning network without the security GW. TheeNodeB, MME, S-GW, and M2000 are located in a trusted domain, and they can communicate witheach other directly.

l Figure 2-2 shows a typical application of the commissioning network with the security GW. TheeNodeB is located on a network whose trusted domain is different from the network where the MME,S-GW, and M2000 are located. Therefore, the eNodeB communicates with the MME, S-GW, andM2000 through the security GW.

4.2 Preparations for the Remote eNodeB Commissioning onthe M2000

Before the remote eNodeB commissioning on the M2000, you need to obtain the related eNodeBinformation and tools. When the security GW is deployed in the network, you need to obtainthe required digital certificate, configure the security equipment, and configure the publicDynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. If the public DHCP server cannot beconfigured, you can import the common information of the site to the eNodeB by using the USBstorage device on site.

4.2.1 Preparations for Remote eNodeB Commissioning on the M2000This section describes the procedure of preparations for remote eNodeB commissioning on theM2000.

4.2.2 Arranging for Related Information and Tools Required for the eNodeB Commissioningon the M2000Before the remote eNodeB commissioning on the M2000, you need to arrange for the relatedeNodeB information and tools.

4.2.3 Obtaining the eNodeB Software and Files for Automatic eNodeB DeploymentBefore the automatic eNodeB deployment on the M2000, the required eNodeB software andfiles should be ready.

4.2.4 Obtaining the Digital Certificate Required for the eNodeB Commissioning on the M2000When the security GW is deployed in the network, the eNodeB and the security GW need toidentify each other through the digital certificate. Therefore, the digital certificate is requiredfor the eNodeB commissioning. The digital certificate consists of the operator's cross certificatesigned by Huawei, operator's root certification authority (CA) certificate (or certificate chainwith the root CA certificate), and operator's certificate revocation list (CRL) at the eNodeB side,and Huawei root CA certificate and Huawei CRL file at the security GW side.

4.2.5 Configuring the Security EquipmentWhen the security gateway (GW) is deployed in the network, you need to configure data for thesecurity GW. In the case that the digital certificate or pre-shared key is adopted for authentication,the customized parameters, such as the IP address of the security GW and the IP address of theM2000 server, should be set on the public DHCP server. In this way, a security channel betweenthe eNodeB and the security GW can be set up, and the eNodeB can be connected to the M2000.In the case that the IEEE 802.1x authentication is adopted, the authentication access equipmentand the authentication server should be configured. Generally, an authentication server is theAuthentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) server.

4.2.4 Obtaining the Digital Certificate Required for the eNodeBCommissioning on the M2000

When the security GW is deployed in the network, the eNodeB and the security GW need toidentify each other through the digital certificate. Therefore, the digital certificate is requiredfor the eNodeB commissioning. The digital certificate consists of the operator's cross certificatesigned by Huawei, operator's root certification authority (CA) certificate (or certificate chainwith the root CA certificate), and operator's certificate revocation list (CRL) at the eNodeB side,and Huawei root CA certificate and Huawei CRL file at the security GW side.

Prerequisitel The operator already obtains the cross certificate signed by Huawei if cross certification is

used.

NOTE

Before Huawei signs a cross certificate for an operator, the operator needs to provide a cross certificaterequest file. The cross certificate request file is based on the PKCS#10 format, and it can be generatedfrom the operator's root or subordinate CA used to grant certificates for the eNodeB, security GW, andM2000.

l The CR/CRL database is deployed on the server of the DeMilitarized Zone (DMZ) of theoperator, and supports FTP. Thus, the files on the CR/CRL database can be downloadedin FTP mode.



4-13

ContextNOTE

The cross certificates involved in this document are signed by Huawei for the operator.

If the operator's certificate chain with the root CA certificate is used instead of the operator's root CA certificate,you can replace the operator's root CA certificate in this document with the operator's certificate chain with theroot CA certificate.

Procedure

Step 1 Obtain the digital certificate required for the eNodeB.1. Confirm with the operator's CA administrator that the cross certificate and operator's CRL

file are saved on the CR/CRL server of the DMZ.

If ... Then ...

The cross certificate and operator's CRLfile are saved on the CR/CRL server

Record the save path of the cross certificateand operator's CRL file. Go to step Step1.2.

The cross certificate and operator's CRLfile are not saved on the CR/CRL server,or cannot be downloaded from the CR/CRL server

Go to step Step 1.3.

2. Specify the save path of the cross certificate and operator's CRL file on the public DHCP

server, so that the eNodeB can obtain the save path upon startup. For details, see 4.2.5Configuring the Security Equipment.

If ... Then ...

The configuration of the public DHCPserver is successful

Go to step Step 2.

The configuration of the public DHCPserver fails

Go to step Step 1.3.

3. Ask the operator for the cross certificate, operator's root CA certificate, and operator's CRL

file. Save the files to the USB storage device, and then perform the task 4.2.7 Importingthe Site Common Information Through the USB Storage Device.

NOTE

You can save either or both of the cross certificate and operator's root CA certificate to the USB storagedevice.

Step 2 Obtain the digital certificate required for the security GW. Ensure that Huawei root CA certificateand Huawei CRL file are configured on the security GW.

4.3 Creating the eNodeB Commissioning Task on the M2000After the preparations for eNodeB commissioning are complete, create the eNodeBcommissioning task on the M2000. This task will be automatically performed by the M2000.The M2000 supports automatic commissioning of multiple eNodeBs.

Prerequisitel The M2000 server and client are connected and are running properly. You have logged in

to the M2000 client.l If the eNodeB and M2000 server are not in the same network segment, the router or switch

between the eNodeB and M2000 server must be configured as DHCP Relay.

NOTE

l If there is no security GW, you should set the IP address of the DHCP server of the M2000 on theDHCP Relay.

l If there is a security GW, you should set the IP address of the public DHCP server on the DHCP Relay.In addition, set the IP address of the DHCP server of the M2000 on the security GW.

l The eNodeB name, eNodeB ID, and ESN are collected.

l The eNodeB is powered on.

l The software and files required for eNodeB automatic deployment are ready. For details,see 4.2.3 Obtaining the eNodeB Software and Files for Automatic eNodeBDeployment.

Context

After the eNodeB is powered on, it sends the DHCP message to the M2000 requesting for theOM IP address. The DHCP message contains the eNodeB ESN and the GPS information of theeNodeB. If the eNodeB ID is not preset and a laptop is available on site, you can run the MODENODEB command to set the eNodeB ID on the LMT. If the eNodeB ID is successfully set,the DHCP message will contain the eNodeB ID.

The EDS file, which is the self-configuration file, includes the eNodeB ID, electronic serialnumber (ESN), and GPS information about the eNodeB. This file is used to be bound to theeNodeB. The eNodeB ID is unique and is used to identify an eNodeB. In an EDS file, the eNodeBID is mandatory and the GPS information and ESN are optional.

The self-configuration data imported to the M2000 is bound with the ESN automatically in thefollowing scenarios:l If the EDS file contains the ESN of the eNodeB, the ESN reported by the eNodeB and the

imported self-configuration data on the M2000 are automatically bound in the case that theESN reported by the eNodeB is consistent with the ESN in the EDS file.

l If the M2000 receives the message containing the eNodeB ID, the imported self-configuration data and the ESN reported by the eNodeB are automatically bound after themapping between the eNodeB ID reported by the eNodeB and the eNodeB ID in the EDSfile.

l If the M2000 receives the message containing the eNodeB location information, which iswithin the error of 100 m compared with the latitude and longitude predefined in the EDSfile, the imported self-configuration data and the ESN reported by the eNodeB are

5.3 Downloading and Activating the Software and DataConfiguration File Through the USB Storage Device

This section describes how to download and activate the eNodeB software and data configurationfile through the USB storage device. The eNodeB automatically downloads the software anddata configuration file from the USB storage device, and then activates them. The software anddata configuration take effect after the eNodeB resets.

PrerequisiteThe USB storage device is ready for use. The required files are saved in the USB storage device.For details, see 5.2.4 Obtaining the Files Required for the eNodeB Commissioning Throughthe USB Storage Device.




5-11

CAUTIONIf one USB storage device is used repeatedly, the target eNodeB software and data configurationfile in the USB storage device should be updated before the USB storage device is used for aneNodeB deployment.

When you save the eNodeB software and data configuration file to the USB storage device,ensure that the locking switch on the USB storage device is disabled. In other words, the USBstorage device should be writable.

Context

When the LMPT of the BBU3900 is started, it automatically detects the USB storage device,reads the related software and data configuration file in the USB storage device, and verifies thefile names and formats.

If you install the BBU before installing the RRU, you can install and power on the RRU duringthe process of BBU software downloading. After the BBU software is downloaded/activatedsuccessfully and the RRU is powered on, you can reset the LMPT to start the automatic upgradeof the RRU software.

You should pay attention to the following points when you download and activate the softwareand the configuration file through the USB storage device:

l If the USB storage device contains the common configuration file of the site, digitalcertificate and eNodeB software, the eNodeB parses the common configuration file, loadsthe digital certificate, and then downloads and activates the eNodeB software and dataconfiguration. If the eNodeB cannot parse the common configuration file, it does notproceed with the subsequent process.

l If the USB storage device contains only the eNodeB software and data configuration, theeNodeB downloads and activates the eNodeB software, and then downloads and activatesthe data configuration.

l If the eNodeB software or data configuration file is missing in the USB storage device, theeNodeB performs the following steps:

– If the eNodeB software is missing in the USB storage device, the eNodeBcommissioning through the USB storage device is not performed.

– If the data configuration file is missing in the USB storage device, the eNodeB upgradesto the minimum configuration of the target version and skips the download andactivation of data configuration.

l If the eNodeB software upgrade fails, the eNodeB rolls back to the pre-upgrade version.

l Before downloading and activating data configuration, the eNodeB does not check thecompatibility between the data configuration file and the eNodeB software version. TheeNodeB performs the following activities:

– If the eNodeB software is upgraded successfully but is not compatible with the dataconfiguration file, or if the download and activation of data configuration fail, theeNodeB uses the minimum configuration of the target version.

– When the active eNodeB software is consistent with the target software version,software upgrade is not performed. After the eNodeB resets, if the active eNodeBsoftware is not compatible with the data configuration file or if the download and




Issue 03 (2010-08-10)

activation of data configuration fail, the eNodeB uses the data configuration of theearlier version.

l If any of the following situations occurs, the eNodeB would not download or activate theeNodeB software or data configuration file from the USB storage device.– The directory or the file does not exist.– The eNodeB software is missing in the USB storage device, and therefore the software

and data cannot be downloaded or activated.– The target software version is consistent with the active eNodeB software, and therefore

the eNodeB software is not downloaded or activated. The download and activation ofdata configuration is still normal.

– The data configuration file is consistent with the active data configuration, and thereforedata configuration is not downloaded. The download and activation of the software isstill normal.

ProcedureStep 1 Insert the USB storage device into the USB port on the LMPT of the BBU3900, as shown in

Figure 5-3.
