NODE B COMMISSIONING
OPERATION AND
MAINTAINENCE
RATINDER SINGH | EILL
BEFORE COMMISSIONING OF
NODEB FOLLOWING
REQUIREMENTS:SOFTWARE:1) HYPER TERMINAL
2) FTP SOFTWARE LIKE WIN
COMMANDER, WSFTP ETC.
3) BPFTP SERVER.
4) CMD.
5) UPDATED JAVA AS PER OS.
6) UP FOLDER CONTAINIG :A) INITIAL CV.

B) P5 SOFTWARE.
C) P6 SOFTWARE.
SCRIPTS REQUIRED
1) EXTERNAL HARDWARE.
2) O&M SCRIPT.
3) IUB_NODE B.
4) IUB_NODEB_RNC.
5) ADD CELL_NODEB_RNC.
FEW CONCEPTS BEFORE START

1) HYPER TERMINAL WILL BE USED
FOR CONNECTING NODE B TO

LAPTOP VIA COM PORT.
2) UP FOLDER MUST BE PLACED ON C
DRIVE ON LAPTOP.
3) EVERY TIME WHEN COMMISSIONING
THE NODEB FIRST LOAD P5 AND
THEN UP GRADE TO P6.
4) WE CAN RUN SCRIPTS ON P6 OR P5.THE

EXTERNAL HARDWARE AND O&M SCRIPTS
ARE ALMOST SAME FOR P5 AND P6 BUT A
SMALL PATCH OF CREATING IUB LINK
WILL BE ADDED TO IUB_NODEB WHEN
RUNNING P6 IUB IN P5 PLATFORM AND
VISE VERSA.
5) THE INITIAL IP WILL BE DEFINED AS
169.254.1.1 AND WILL CHANGE AFTER THE
EXECUTION OF O&M SCRIPT.
O&M SCRIPT ADDS 3 IP IN NODE B.
FIRST ONE IS USED FOR ETHERNET

CONNECTION AND OTHER TWO ARE
USED FOR ATM OVER IP
CONNECTIVITY.
HOW TO READ DLD FORM

1) IN ATM ADDRESS SEE THE NODE B AND
CORRESPONDONG IUB WITH A2EA.
2) RNC_IUB SHEET FOR DIRECT TO RNC SITES. USE

IUB NO. FOR SEARCHING THE ATM PORT.
3) HUB AND SUB HUB_IUB SHEET FOR NODE B

CONNECTED THROUGH HUB, SUB HUB
TOPOLOGY.
4) MUB_CC SHEET FOR FINDING THE

VC THAT ARE USED FOR CROSS
CONNECTING RNC WITH MGW.
ALSO, FOR GETTING ATM AND
ETHERNET IP FOR NODE B AND
ROUTER.
STEPS
FOR COMMISSIONIG OF
NODE B
OPEN HYPER TERMINAL AND

GIVE ANY CONNECTION NAME
SELECT THE COM PORT USED

FOR CONNECTION
GIVE USER NAME AND

PASSWARD-----rbs
GIVE COMMAND ( reload --)

FOR GETTING INTO THE BACKUP MODE AND
THEN ( formathd /c2, formathd /d)
FOR FORMATTING c2 AND d DRIVES
NOTE:- DRIVE VOLUMES CAN BE CHECKED WITH ( vols ) COMMAND. IT SHOULD
BE 0M FOR BOTH DRIVES
GIVE POWER RESTART TO THE

NODE
GIVE IP TO THE NODE WITH COMMAND

( ifconfig le0 169.254.1.1 netmask
255.255.0.0)
GIVE NODE IP IN NETWORK

CONNECTIONS
OPEN WIN COMMANDER
GO TO FTP CONNECTIONS
GIVE NODE IP. GIVE USER

NAME AND PASSWARD AS rbs
DRAG c2 AND d FOLDERS FROM INITIAL_CV_NODEB

TO O DRIVE WHERE c2 AND d DRIVES ARE
ALREADY PRESENT
WAIT TILL TRANSFER OF FILES

IS COMPLETED
OPEN CMD AND GIVE PATH WHERE

sw_load.bat FILE IS STORED
RUN COMMAND sw_load.bat 169.254.1.1

rbs rbs AND WAIT TILL service closing
control connection
GIVE reload AND WAIT TILL

LOGIN SERVER READY
OPEN INTERNET EXPLORER. GIVE

ADDRESS
169.254.1.1/em/index.html
GO TO CONFIGURATION VERSION
AND CREATE CV AS p5
IN UPGRADE PACKAGE FILL DATA AS SHOWN IN

SLIDE
NOTE:- FORMAT OF SOFTWARE FILE NAME
./filename.xml
OPEN BPFTP SERVER AND MAKE USER

ACCOUNT AS anonymous
WITH PASSWORD anonymous
GIVE PATH WHERE FILE IS

SAVED ON HARD DISK
AFTER CREATING THE PACKAGE

CLICK ON install package
THEN full install
VERIFY PACKAGE
THEN upgrade node AND

THEN hard upgrade
WHEN THE UPGRADE IS COMPLETED THEN OPEN

INTERNET EXPLORER AND GIVE
169.254.1.1/em/index.html TO DOWNLOAD RBS
ELEMENT MANAGER
OPEN RBS ELEMENT MANAGER

AND GIVE IP TO CONNECT TO
NODE
GO TO UPGRADE PACKAGE
AND confirm P6 UPGRADE
IN C0NFIGURATION VERSION
CREATE CV NAMED AS cv_p6
GO TO CABINET EQUIPMENT
AND SELECT delete cabinet
equipment
AGAIN GOTO CABINET

EQUIPMENT
THEN DO next TILL IT LOADS

CURRENT CONFIGURATIONS
SELECT RB1 IN ALL 3

SECTORS
SELECT CARDS PRESENT ON
PROCEED NEXT TILL IT DIPLAYS THE

NODE DATA THAT WE HAVE DEFINED
CLICK FINISH AND IT DISPLAYS GIVEN

MESSAGE AND AGAIN CLICK YES
NOW GO TO SITE EQUIPMENT AND TICK use

configuration file GIVE FILE PATH WHERE
external hardware SCRIPT IS STORED
WAIT TILL IT LOADS

CONFIGURATION FILE
CLICK NEXT TILL PAGE 7.

IF WE ARE USING TRI BAND OR DUAL BAND ANTENNA THEN
( ANTENNA TYPE IS 0 AND RET TYPE IS ARETU FOR ALL 3
SECTORS) ELSE (ANTENNA TYPE = 5 AND RET TYPE = ARETU)
ON PAGE 9 FILL THE DELAY AND

ATTENUATION AS CALCULATED WITH BASIC
CALCULATOR
DO NEXT UNTIL IT DISPLAYS THE DATA

ENTERED BY MEANS OF SCRIPT AND BY
MANUAL FEEDING
CLICK FINISH AND WAIT UNTIL IT GIVES

MESSAGE CONFIGURATION COMPLETED
SUCCESSFULLY
NOW, GO TO O&M ACCESS .

TICK HALT ON ERRORS AND VERBOSE

LOGGING ALSO GIVE PATH WHERE iub
SCRIPT IS STORED.
CLICK START AND WAIT TILL

CONFIGURATION SUCCEEDED
MESSAGE IS DIPLAYED
NOW GOTO LICENSING THEN

UPDATE KEY FILE
GIVE USER ID license PASSWD license IP

ADDRESS= IP ADDRESS +1 AND LICENSE FILE =
LICENSE FILE NAME.xml
IN BPFTP SERVER MAKE NEW USER ACCOUNT AS

license AND PASSWD AS license. ALSO, GIVE
THE PATH WHERE LICENSE OF GIVEN SITE IS
STORED.
THEN CLICK OK IN UPDATE LICENSE KEY WINDOW
IT FINSHES THE
COMMISSIONING OF NODE-B
WHETHER INDOOR OR
OUTDOOR. AFTER THIS
SCRIPTS REGARDING RF
PARAMETERS, RET AND DELAY
AND ATTENUATION HAVE TO
BE DEFINED. ALSO,IF SINGLE
BAND ANTENNA IS USED THEN
SOFTWARERATINDER
UPGRADATION
IS
SINGH | EILL
FROM O&M POINT OF VIEW FOLLOWING POINTS

ARE VERY IMPORTANT
MEDIA TESTING
1) CHECK THE EXACT POSITION OF E1

TERMINATED ON NODEB.
2) CHECK ATM PORT:- IN ATM SEE ATMPORT
AND VC DEFINED UNDER IT ARE ENABLED

AND OPERATIONAL.
3) NBAP DEDICATED AND COMMON:- CHECK

ENABLED AND OPERATIONAL.
EQUIPMENT
1) CHECK ALL THE CARDS ARE UNLOCKED AND

ENABLED.
2) IF ANY CARD IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY, THEN

LOCK ANDTEST IT FROM BOARD TEST.
3) SEE RETU ARE ENABLED AND UP.

4) SEE OPERATIONAL LED STABLE IN ALL CARDS AND
WHEN NODE B IS RADIATING INFORMATION IS
BLINKING IN ALL CARDS EXCEPT ETXX CARDS
WHICH ARE USED FOR TRANSMISSION PURPOSES.
5) CHECK SECTORS:- IN RADIO

NETWORK CHECK ALL SECTORS AND
CORRESPONDING CARRIERS ARE
ENABLED AND OPERATIONAL
IP
1) CHECK ETHERNET IP IS
OPERATIONAL AND SAME AS

GIVEN IN DLD FORM.
2) CHECK BOTH THE IP DEFINED FOR

ATM OVER IP ARE OPERATIONAL.
ALARMS
AT LAST THE MOST IMPORTANT
THING FROM O&M POINT OF VIEW
IS THE ALARMS ON NODE B WHICH
ARE VERY IMPORTANT AND WILL
BE RECTIFIED AS SOON AS
POSSIBLE. IF UNABLE TO DO SO,
THEN ESCALATE TO HIGHER LEVEL
