Purposes

New IPRehoming Functions Before the introduction of the new functions, the static IP can be

configured for the BTS locally in the static IP networking mode while

the new functions support remote static IP configuration.

Enhanced functions: For the earlier BTS version, in the static IP

networking mode, operators can modify locally the configured

parameters, such as BTS IP, BSC IP, and routers.

Enabling low cost services: The IPRehoming enables remote

static IP configuration. In this case, operators do not need to

go to the BTS, which contributes to higher efficiency.

Applicable Scenarios

For the BTS in the static IP networking mode, operation

and maintenance personnel do not need to go to the BTS

for the network deployment or modification of the static IP.

This feature allows them to operate remotely.

Introduction to 3012 Series Base Stations V200R013C00 IPRehomingIMP BTSDEVIP, IMP BTSIPPARA, IMP BTSIPRT, IMP BTSVLAN, IMP

BTSMPGRP, IMP BTSMPLNK, and IMP BTSPPPLNK. After modification

of parameters by running the newly added commands, users need to

run the ACT BTSIMPDATA command to activate the newly configured

data. The BTS writes the data into the Flash and backs up the original

data to another Flash. The newly configured data can take effect only

after users reset the BTS. Then, the BTS attempts to create links with

the BSC using the new data. If the attempt fails, the backup data will be

used for another try, that is to say, the BTS attempts to connect to the

BSC using data in the two flashes. We have to configure both side,

BSC and BTS.

Data Planning

Planning of data required for enabling the feature

includes: Data for the BTS: Configure the BTS based on the data planning,

including configuration of BTS IP, routers, BSC IP and VLAN, and

ppp/mp links.

How to configure – STEP 1 First LST BTSIP and LST BTSIPRT: Shows the current

configuration on site, Let’s change it to

10.100.100.3.

How to configure – STEP 2

IMP BTSDEVIP command: (IMPORT commands are used to write new configuration to

BTS flash, but only takes effect after ACT BTSIMPDATA. ) 1. After this command is executed successfully, do not run the ACT BTSIMPDATA command to

activate the BTS data until the BTS data are imported successfully by running other IMP commands.

Then, reset the BTS to modify the BTS static IP addresses that is configured locally. 2. In this command, Port No. specifies the port number of the BTS, Port Cabinet No. specifies the No.

of the cabinet where the FE/GE port is located, Subrack No. specifies the No. of the subrack that

holds the GTMU board (IP interface board for non-BTS3900E base stations), and Slot No. specifies

the No. of the slot that holds the GTMU board (IP interface board for non-BTS3900E base stations).

BTS Name must be defined uniquely in the source BSC and target BSC in the case of BTS reparent

between BSCs. 3. The values of all the preceding configuration parameters are the ones after the BTS data are

changed.

%%IMP BTSDEVIP: IDTYPE=BYID, BTSID=3,

CFGSW=ENABLE, PN=0, CN=0, SRN=0, SN=3,

IP="10.100.100.3", MASK="255.255.255.0";%% RETCODE = 0 Execution succeeded.

How to configure – STEP 3

IMP BTSIPPARA command: Use this command to configure the BTS that is locally configured with static IP addresses. Run

this command to import the BTS data after the IP Physical Tran. Type, BTS Communication

Type, BTS IP, and BSC IP of a BTS are changed. Note 1. After this command is executed successfully, do not run the ACT BTSIMPDATA command to

activate the BTS data until the BTS data are imported successfully by running other IMP

commands. Then, reset the BTS to modify the BTS static IP addresses that is configured

locally. 2. The values of all the preceding configuration parameters are the ones after the BTS data

are changed.

%%IMP BTSIPPARA: IDTYPE=BYID, BTSID=3,

CFGSW=ENABLE, IPPHYTRANSTYPE=IP_OVER_FE/GE,

BTSCOMTYPE=PORTIP, BTSIP="10.100.100.3",

BSCIP="100.100.100.34";%% RETCODE = 0 Execution succeeded.

How to configure – STEP 4

IMP BTSIPRT command: Use this command to configure the BTS that is locally configured with static IP addresses. Run

this command to import the routing data to the BTS after the network segment on which the IP

address of a BSC interface board is located is changed or the out-going port or next-hop IP

address of the BTS route is changed. Note 1. After this command is executed successfully, do not run the ACT BTSIMPDATA command to

activate the BTS data until the BTS data are imported successfully by running other IMP

commands. Then, reset the BTS to modify the BTS static IP addresses that is configured locally. 2. The values of all the preceding configuration parameters are the ones after the BTS data are

changed.

%%IMP BTSIPRT: IDTYPE=BYID, BTSID=3,

CFGSW=ENABLE, DSTIP="100.100.100.32",

DSTMASK="255.255.255.252", RTTYPE=NEXTHOP,

NEXTHOP="10.100.100.1";%% RETCODE = 0 Execution succeeded.

How to configure – STEP 5 ACT BTSIMPDATA command: Use this command to activate the data imported by using the IMP BTSIPPARA,

IMP BTSDEVIP, IMP BTSIPRT, IMP BTSVLAN, IMP BTSMPGRP, IMP BTSMPLNK,

IMP BTSPPPLNK, IMP BTSVLANCLASS, IMP BTSVLANMAP, IMP BTSNETPARA,

IMP BTSIKEPEER, and IMP BTSIKECFG commands. After this command is executed, the

BTS saves the configured data to the configuration data saving area in the BTS flash.

The data takes effect after the BTS is reset. It is a critical command, Retry Number as

yellow marked below indicateds that how many times system will try to modify new

setting on BTS. If we input as 1, in case of abnormal situation like OML setting up

failure then BTS will be up with latest(old) configuration within 25 minutes. If we set it

to 2, system will try 2 times and if fails, after 40 minutes BTS will be up with OLD

configuration. Recommended value is 1. The number of the attempts is indicated by

the value of this parameter.

How to configure – STEP 6After we activate IMPORT configurations, now we should continue with BSC side configuration:

• Before continue to set BSC side configuration, let’s explain EXPORT commands.

•EXPORT commands are only used for to export the Ethernet port IP address configured by using IMPORT commands. That means, it shows the new configuration which will be activated after we finish the whole procedure.

•EXP BTSDEVIP:Use this command to export the Ethernet port IP address configured by using the IMP BTSDEVIP command.

•EXP BTSIPPARA:Use this command to export the Ethernet port IP address configured by using the IMP BTSIPPARA command.

•EXP BTSIPRT:Use this command to export the BTS routes configured by using the IMP BTSIPRT command.

How to configure – STEP 7

BSC side configuration:

First we deactive the BTS.
