23/125

NOTE

l Perform either of the following operations if a gateway IP address needs to be changed while

you are changing an external fixed IP address:

l Method 1: Enter ./omutool extercard The external fixed IP address The subnet mask (The

gateway IP address) to change the external fixed IP address and gateway IP address at thesame time. The following is an example:

./omutool extercard 10.161.10.100 255.255.255.0 10.161.10.1

l Method 2: Enter ./omutool gateway The gateway IP address to change the gateway IP

address separately. The following is an example:

./omutool gateway 10.161.10.1

l After the external fixed IP address is changed, the OMU can be connected to the operation and

maintenance (OM) network of the operator over the ETH0 or ETH1 port. In this case, subsequent

commissioning tasks can be performed remotely.

3. Change the external virtual IP address and subnet mask of the active and standby OMUs

according to the plan. Ensure that the external virtual IP address is on the same network

segment as the external fixed IP address.Enter ./omutool extervip The external virtual IP address The subnet mask to change the

external virtual IP address and subnet mask. For example, you can enter the following

command:./omutool extervip 10.161.10.102 255.255.255.0

NOTE

The external virtual, external fixed and gateway IP addresses must all be in the same network segment.

If you change either of the first two of these, you will be prompted to check whether the other two

addresses need to be changed to comply with this rule.

4. Check whether the internal fixed IP address, internal virtual IP address, backup channel IP

address, and commissioning IP address of active and standby OMUs are in the same

network segment as the operator's network.

26/125

Prerequisites

l The preparations for installing software on site are completed. For details, see Onsite

Software Installation Preparations.

l You have obtained the planned OMU information and recorded them in Configuration

Information for Preparing the USB Flash Drive.

l The capacity of the USB flash drive is at least 4 GB. If the BSC6900 is configured with

active and standby OMUs, two USB flash drives are required.

l A USB flash drive has been inserted into an available and uncontrolled (for example, CPM

control) USB port on a portable computer

l Check whether the USB flash drive is usable by referring to the USB Flash Drive

Verification Guide under the USB Disk Tool (a tool used for preparing the USB flash drive)

directory. If the USB flash drive cannot be used, replace it with another one. The Netac

U208 (4 GB), Kingston and Sandisk USB storage devices are recommended.

Context

NOTICE

Back up the OMU data before you install the OMU operating system and product software. This

is because the OMU hard disk will be formatted during the installation of the OMU operating

system and product software using the USB flash drive, and all data will be deleted.

l This section uses the commissioning of active and standby OMUs as an example. The

commissioning operation differences between the OMU in independent mode and theOMUs in active/standby mode are described separately.

l Commissioning an OMU using a USB flash drive involves two steps: preparing the USB

flash drive and commissioning the OMU after inserting the USB flash drive into the OMU.

Step 2 Commission the OMU after inserting the USB flash drive to the OMU.

1. Insert the USB flash drive into any USB port on the OMU board panel.

2. Remove and then install the OMU board to reset it. For details, see sections Removing a

Board and Installing a board in the BSC6900 UMTS Site Maintenance Guide.

3. Observe the status of the indicators on the OMU board panel and determine whether the

installation is complete.

l If only the operating system is to be installed on the OMU, check the indicator status

according to the conditions described in Table 5-2.

l If the operating system and product software are to be installed on the OMU, check the

indicator status according to the conditions described in Table 5-3.

l If only the product software is to be installed, check the indicator status according to

the conditions described in Table 5-4.

NOTE

l If the status of the indicators differs from this, the OMU cannot identify the USB flash device.

In this case, prepare another USB flash device. Alternatively, copy the data in the original USB

flash device to a new one, and then reinstall the OMU operating system.

l After the OMU operating system and the product software are installed successfully, remove the

USB flash drive from the OMU board panel. The OMU commissioning is complete. If the value

of operation type is Only install product software, you need to remove and reinsert the OMU

to restart the OMU operating system after removing the USB flash drive.

OMU.

Step 2 Repeat Step 1 to reset all the BSC6900 subracks.

NOTE

You can observe the loading process on the Progress tab page on the LMT home page. If this tab page is hidden,

click Progress in the toolbar on the LMT home page.

Step 3 Click the Device Maintenance tab on the LMT home page after all the subracks are reset. TheDevice Maintenance tab page is displayed.

Step 4 Check whether all the boards on the device panel are in the normal state.

If... Then...

The device panel shows that all the boards

are in the normal state

No further action is required.

The device panel shows that some boards

are not in the normal state

Check the faulty boards and clear the alarms

according to operations in 17.9 Data Loading

Procedure

Step 1 Run the MML command ACT CRC without specifying any parameter to check whether theBSC6900 board configuration is consistent with the data on the OMU.

Expected result: The All table data consistent. message is displayed.

Step 2 Run the MML command CMP BRDVER without specifying any parameter to check whether the version run by the BSC6900 is consistent with the version information on the OMU.

Expected result: The Compare consistent message is displayed.

NOTE

If the board configuration or software version is inconsistent with the information on the OMU, run the MML

command RST SUBRACK reset the subrack where the board with incorrect data or version is located.

----End

Follow-up Procedure

After the consistency check, restore the loading method of the board: Run the MML command

SET LODCTRL to set Board Start Load Control to CL(Consult Load).

10 Connecting to the U2000This section describes how to connect the BSC6900 to the U2000 for centralized management.

Prerequisites

l The operation and maintenance (O&M) network has passed the commissioning. The U2000

is operating properly.

l The version of the U2000 is compatible with that of the BSC6900.

l The mediation version of the U2000 is compatible with the NE version.

Context

l If the BSC6900 and the U2000 are in the same network segment, you do not need to

configure an IP route to the BSC6900 to the U2000.

l If the BSC6900 and the U2000 are not in the same network segment, you must configure

an IP route from the BSC6900 to the U2000.

Procedure

Step 1 Connect the BSC6900 to the O&M network.

1. Connect one end of a straight-through cable to the ETH0 or ETH1 port on the OMU board.

2. Connect the other end of the straight-through cable to the peer network device, such as a

hub or a router, to access the O&M network.

Step 2 Configure an IP route from the BSC6900 to the U2000.

1. Run the MML command LST OMUIPRT to check whether the IP route to the U2000 is

configured on the OMU.

l If the values of Destination Network Address, Destination Address Mask , and

Forward Route Address are consistent with the planned addresses, the BSC6900 has

an IP route to the U2000. Go to Step 2.3.

l If the Destination Network Address, Destination Address Mask , and Forward

Route Address are not consistent with the planned addresses, the BSC6900 does not

have a route to the U2000. Go to Step 2.2.

2. Run the MML command ADD OMUIPRT to configure a route from the BSC6900 to the

U2000.

3. Verify the configuration of the route from the BSC6900 to the router.

Log in to the OMU according to the instructions in BSC6900 UMTS OMU Administration

Guide for Logging In to the OMU, and then run the ping command to check whether the

network connectivity between the BSC6900 and the router is available. If the OMU can

receive an acknowledge packet from the router, go to Step 2.4. Otherwise, check whether the OMU and the router are properly connected.

4. Verify the configuration of the route from the BSC6900 to the U2000.

Log in to the OMU and run the ping command to check whether the network connectivity

between the BSC6900 and the U2000 is available. If the OMU can receive a response packet

from the U2000, go to Step 3. Otherwise, check whether the router and the U2000 are

properly connected.

Step 3 Create the BSC6900 on the U2000. For details, see the information about how to create an NEin the U2000 documentation.

NOTICE

l If a firewall exists between the BSC6900 and U2000, enable the communication ports

connecting the BSC6900 and U2000 to ensure proper communication between the

BSC6900 and U2000.

l For details on the ports connecting the BSC6900 and U2000, see 18.1 Communication Ports

on the BSC6900.

l The MTU value configured for the transmission equipment between the BSC6900 and the

U2000 must be no less than that configured for the OMU board of the BSC6900. Otherwise,

the communication between the BSC6900 and the U2000 may be abnormal. The defaultMTU value for the OMU board is 1500.

l You are advised to run the SET CONNTYPE command with Connection Type set to

ONLY_SSL(Only SSL Connection) to enhance network transmission security.
