The LMT is connected to the OMC interface on the NET or TNC in the main control frame of the UMG8900 through the LAN Switch. Before performing any debugging, check whether the communication between the LMT and the OMC interface is normal. Both the LMT and the M2000 are installed in the Windows operating system. Before system commissioning, check the network communication between the LMT and OMC interface by using PING in the Windows command line. To check the network communication, perform the following steps.

Procedure
Step 1 Choose Start > Run in the Windows operating system. Then run CMD in Windows 2000 or XP or command in Windows 98 to display the command line window. Step 2 Run PING 129.0.0.1. If the returned message is Reply from 129.0.0.1: byte=32 time<10ms TTL=128, it indicates that the communication is normal. If "time" in the returned message is too long or the returned message is Request Timed out, it indicates that the communication is abnormal.
NOTE

The address of the OMC interface is defined in MML.txt in the software loading package, and the default address is 129.0.0.1. Change the address when loading software according to the data planning. The IP address in PING is considered as an example. In practice, ping the IP address set in MML.txt when loading software.

Step 3 If the communication is abnormal, perform the following steps to check the cause.
l

Check whether the indicators on the OMC interface, network interface of the LAN Switch, and network interface of the PC with the LMT installed are on to judge the connection status on the physical layer and eliminate hardware failure segment by segments. Check whether the IP address of the OMU in MML.txt is the same as the destination IP address in the PING operation, and whether the IP address of the PC is in the same network segment with the IP address of the OMC interface. If not, check whether the route is correctly set.

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

3.1 Checking Hardware Data


This describes how to check hardware data such as cabinets, frames, boards, clock, system time, and cascading.

Procedure
Step 1 Check cabinets and frames. Check whether cabinets and frames are uniformly numbered. Step 2 Check boards. Check whether boards of the same type are uniformly numbered and whether configuration data is easy to read. Check whether slot positions comply with specifications and whether redundant boards are removed. Check whether 1+1 backup boards are configured in paired slots. Master boards are always inserted in even slots, and slave boards are configured in odd slots. Step 3 Check the clock. Check whether clock reference sources are configured based on physical cable connection and whether the work mode of the clock is set to auto when multiple clock reference sources are configured. Check whether the configured clock grade is consistent with the actual grade of clock reference sources. If the grade of clock reference sources is stratum 3 and the configured clock grade is stratum 2, the UMG8900 detects that clock reference sources do not meet the requirement of the clock precision and reports the alarm of ALM_2203 Frequency difference of the reference exceeds scope. Check whether the priority level of clock reference sources is consistent with that in the actual application. If the external BITS clock is connected, the external clock source is of the highest priority level, and the priority levels rank as follows: GPSPRI=FOURTH,LINE1PRI=SECOND,LINE2PRI=THIRD,EXTPRI=FIRST; If no external BITS clock is connected, the line clock is of the highest priority level, and the priority levels rank as follows: GPSPRI=FOURTH,LINE1PRI=FIRST,LINE2PRI=SECOND,EXTPRI=THIRD Step 4 Check the system time. Check whether the configured time is consistent with the local standard time. Step 5 Check cascading. Check whether the cascading board No. is consistent with that of the BLU to which the cascading board is connected when adding cascading service frames by using ADD FRM. ----End

3.2 Checking Interconnection Data


This describes how to check H.248 interconnection data, time division multiplexing (TDM)/ Internet Protocol (IP)/asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) bearer data, connection to the shared interworking function (SIWF), and signaling transfer data.

Procedure
Step 1 Check the connection to the media gateway controller (MGC).
l

Configure TDM/IP resources for the virtual media gateway (VMGW) as required by the planning; otherwise, the VMGW cannot be used for bearing services. Use LST VMGW to check the number of terminations. When multiple PPUs are configured, ensure that H.248 signaling links are set up on each PPU. In this way, the capabilities of processing H.248 messages are allocated to each PPU to share load. When modifying the parameters of the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) and H.248 protocol stack, you must restart the PPU, and then the modified protocol parameters can take effect. Check whether VMGW ID, codec type, transmission protocol type, authentication type, and authentication key are consistent with those on the interconnected MGC. Check whether the parameters are correctly configured. In this way, the debugging time can be greatly shortened. When grouping media resources, ensure that each CMU has available VPU resources and the VPU is put into resource groups, which results in resource waster. In particular, when completing data configuration and then adding the VPU, put the VPU into the resource group in time.

Step 2 Check the connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) switch (TDM bearer data).
l

Configure TDMIUs according to the TDM timeslot planning table, and the TDMIU relay type must be consistent with that in the actual networking. Check whether the overhead bytes of the synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) interface are consistent with those of the interconnected device. Check whether the SDH-related alarms exist in the alarm management system after data configuration. Check whether the frame format and line code structure of E1 interfaces are consistent with those of the interconnected device. Note the consistency of frame types and line code structures when the UMG8900 is interconnected with overseas switch.

Step 3 Check the connection to other media gateways (MGWs) (IP bearer data).
l

Check whether the gateway address and the bearer IP address are in the same network segment. Check whether the work mode of the Layer 2 User Adaptation for MTP2, Q.921 and V5 (L2UA) links is consistent with those on the MGC side. The work mode of both sides is LOADSHARE or OVERRIDE. Check whether the interface address for IP bearer is set to available for bearer and is consistent with the planned data. Check whether the IP bearer capability of the VMGW is set.

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

Step 4 Check ATM bearer data.


l

Check whether the overhead bytes of ATM interfaces are consistent with those of the interconnected device. Check whether the SDH-related alarms exist in the alarm management system after data configuration. Check whether the configurations of the permanent virtual channel (PVC) are consistent with the planned data. Check whether the destination signaling point (DSP) and original signaling point (OSP) of MTP3B are consistent with those planned. Check whether the configurations of Q.AAL2 local nodes and adjacent nodes are consistent with the planned data. Check the maximum number of users supported by one VMGW on a specified ASU.

Step 5 Check the connection to the SIWF.


l

Check whether the configurations of E1 Nos. in ADD IWFE1 are consistent with those on the SIWF side. Check whether the type of the E1 relay is set to Inside by using ADD TDMIU. Check whether the SIWF is activated.

l l

Step 6 Check signaling transfer data.


l

Check whether the configurations of the Message Transfer Part layer 3 (MTP3) local signaling point, MTP3 DSP code, MTP3 User Adaptation Layer (M3UA) local entity, and M3UA destination entity are correct in MTP3-M3UA forwarding mode. Check whether the route contexts of the M3UA local entity and destination entity are consistent with those of the MGC destination entity and local entity respectively. Check whether the traffic mode of M3UA link sets is consistent with that on the MGC side. The traffic mode on the two sides can be LOADSHARE or OVERRIDE. Check whether the work mode of M3UA link sets is set to SGP and that on the MGC side is set to ASP. Check whether the SCTP link parameters carrying M3UA and (MTP2 User Adaptation) M2UA are consistent with those on the MGC side. Check whether the int-type interface ID and text-type interface ID of Message Transfer Part layer 2 (MTP2) links are uniformly numbered and whether the settings of SPF subboard modes can meet the requirements of signaling transfer in MTP2-M2UA forwarding mode. Check whether the timeslot unit of semi-permanent connections is configured correctly in transparent transmission mode.

DIP switches of the SSM-256 frame and the SSM-32 frame are set in the different ways, as described below: For the SSM-256 frame, SW1 to SW4 are used to set the frame ID, which is a 4-bit binary number. That is, the frame ID = (SW4)(SW3)(SW2)(SW1). If the DIP switch is positioned to ON, the frame ID is 0; if the DIP switch is position to OFF, the frame ID is 1. SW5 to SW8 are not used at present, and must be set to OFF. Table 4-1 shows the mapping between frame IDs and the DIP switch settings.

For the SSM-32 frame, SW1 to SW6 are used to set the frame ID, which is a 6-bit binary number. That is, the frame ID = (SW6)(SW5)(SW4)(SW3)(SW2)(SW1). If the DIP switch is positioned to ON, the frame ID is 0; if the DIP switch is position to OFF, the frame ID is 1.SW7 and SW8 are not used at present, and must be set to OFF. The appearance and structure of the SSM-256 frame and SSM-32 frame are the same while the backplanes are different. Distinguish the two frames as follows:

Observing the slot on the backplane There are 16 slots on the front and back of the backplane of the SSM-256 frame respectively.The width of the slots is the same. Because each OMB/MPB/TNC board occupies two physical slots in the SSM-32 frame, their corresponding slots on the backplane also occupy two slots. That is, there are 14 slots on the front and back of the backplane of the SSM-32 frame respectively, and the two slots in the middle are wider than the other slots.

Context
In the carrier-class application, the devices must have a high self-protection capability, and thus slave boards (1+1 backup boards) are configured for most boards. The following boards can be in 1+1 backup mode: the OMU, MPU, NET, TNU, CMU, CLK, HRB, ASU, and BLU. The following boards can use the 1+1 backup mode: the S1L, S2L, and PIE. In normal conditions, the master board is working. When the master board fails, the slave board switches to be the master and takes over the work. Thus, it is necessary to check board switchover during the system commissioning.

Procedure
Step 1 Run SWP BRD or right-click a master board on the device panel and select Swap Board to implement board switchover. Step 2 After board switchover, check whether the master board can change to the slave board and the slave board can change to the master board. You can run LST BRD to check the master/slave state of the board. Step 3 Switch over the board during a call, and check whether the call is affected. Step 4 Run SWP BRD to switch the board. ----End

4.2 Debugging Clock


This describes how to debug the clock.

Context
The phase-lock state of the clock can be:
l l

Free running: specifies that the CLK outputs free running clock generated by its crystal. Fast tracking: specifies that the CLK or the clock subboard on the MTNC is tracking reference source clock fast and is an instantaneous state usually when the system just connects the reference source. Locked: specifies that the CLK or the clock subboard on the MTNC has locked the primary reference source and outputs clock signals aligned with reference source. Holdover: specifies that the CLK or the clock subboard on the MTNC outputs clock signals based on the locked state when reference source is missing.

After the clock reference source is configured, the phase-lock state of the CLK or the clock subboard on the MTNC is Locked when the system is in normal operation. Otherwise, the clock is abnormal. Check whether the clock cables are correctly connected and whether the clockrelated alarm occurs. If yes, locate the fault and find the causes. If no reference source data is configured and the CLK or the clock subboard on the MTNC adopts the clock generated by its constant-temperature crystal, the phase-lock state is Free running. When constituting a digital network, stored program control switches are connected through the digital transmission system. The clock frequency and phase of all the switches must be

consistent. Therefore, all the switches in the network must be of the same sending clock frequency and receiving clock frequency. The drift and jitter of a clock may cause many issues, such as call noise, call disconnection, and digital service interruption. Only how to debug the clock system is described here. For some faults occurring during the debugging, see the HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway TroubleshootingClearing Clock System Faults. 4.2.1 Checking Clock Cables This describes how to check connections of clock cables. 4.2.2 Debugging Networking of Single Reference Source This describes how to debug the clock of the single reference source networking. 4.2.3 Debugging Networking of Multiple Reference Source This describes how to debug the clock of the networking of the multiple reference sources.

4.2.1 Checking Clock Cables


This describes how to check connections of clock cables.

Context
The SSM-256 and SSM-32 frames provide the stratum-2 clock through the CLK. The SSM-32 frame can provide the stratum-3 clock through the clock subboard of the MTNC.

Procedure
Step 1 If the UMG8900 locks the BITS clock, connect 2 Mbit/s clock cables from the BITS to 2M_IN interfaces on the master and slave CLKs in the main control frame respectively. This operation can be skipped if the UMG8900 locks the clock of the peer office or the GPS clock. Step 2 If the UMG8900 locks the peer office clock (line clock 1 or line clock 2), connect the X1 connector of the 8 kHz line clock cable to the 8K_OUT interface on the TDM interface board (including E32/T32/S2L) and the X2/X3 connector to the 8K_IN1 or 8K_IN2 interface on the master and slave CLKs/MTNCs. 8K_IN1 indicates to lock Line Clock 1 and 8K_IN2 indicates to lock line clock 2. This operation can be skipped if the UMG8900 locks the BITS clock or the GPS clock. If the main control frame is an SSM-256 frame, connect the X2/X3 connector of the line clock cable to the CLK. If the main control frame is an SSM-32 frame, connect the X2/X3 connector of the line clock to the MTNC. Step 3 If the UMG8900 locks the GPS clock, connect one end of the GPS clock cable to the ANT interface on the CLK board and the other end to the GPS satellite antenna. This operation can be skipped if the UMG8900 locks the clock of the peer office or the BITS clock. Only the CLK in the SSM-256 frame supports the GPS clock. The clock subboard of the MTNC in the SSM-32 frame cannot lock the GPS clock. Step 4 In terms of connecting clock distribution cables, connect the X1 connector of the clock distribution cable to the CLK_OUT interface on the CLK in the main control frame and X2 to X7 connectors to the CLK_IN interfaces on the NETs in other frames. The two CLK_IN

interfaces on the NET, CLK0_IN and CLK1_IN, are respectively connected with CLK_OUT interfaces on the master and slave CLKs. This operation can be skipped in single-frame mode. When the SSM-32 frames are cascaded by themselves, the clock signals are transmitted through the TDM cascading fiber. Thus, the clock distribution cable is not required. In this case, this item is not checked. When the SSM-256 frames are cascaded by themselves, this item must be checked. When the SSM-32 frame and the SSM-256 frame are cascaded, the SSM-32 frame does not require any clock distribution cable; however, the SSM-256 frame requires the clock distribution cable. In this case, check this item for the SSM-256 frame only. Step 5 In terms of connecting clock output cables, connect 2M_OUT interfaces on the CLK or MTNC to CLK_IN interfaces on the receiving device with 2 Mbit/s clock cables. This operation can be skipped when no junior office locks the UMG8900 clock. ----End

4.2.2 Debugging Networking of Single Reference Source


This describes how to debug the clock of the single reference source networking.

Context
NOTE

Step 1 and Step 2 are required only when the peer office clock is locked. If the global positioning system (GPS) or building integrated timing supply system (BITS) clock is locked, skip these two steps.

Procedure
Step 1 Run DSP E1PORT without specifying the port No. to check the local E1 port that locks the peer E1 line clock is normal. The E32 can extract the peer E1 line clock only when the local E1 port is in the OK state. You can also observe the color of the E1 port on the device management panel to judge its status. Green means the port runs well. Step 2 Run DSP SLIP to perform statistics on the total slips in the latest 15 minutes or 24 hours. Step 3 Run DSP CLK to display the state of the clock phase-locked loop on the CLK and the states of reference sources. Use different debugging methods based on the output results.
l

If the phase-lock state is trace, it indicates that the clock phase-locked loop on the CLK can trace the reference source clock. Then perform Step 4. If the phase-lock state is free running, it indicates that the clock phase-locked loop on the CLK cannot trace the reference source clock. Then perform Step 5.
NOTE

It takes about 30 minutes for the CLK to complete clock locking.

Step 4 Run LST CLK to check whether the clock data configuration is correct. After handling the configuration errors and faults, repeat Step 1, Step 2, and Step 3.

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

Step 5 Check whether the clock reference source, CLK, and clock subboard fail. Check whether the clock-related alarm exists in the alarm management system. For example, if ALM_2203 Frequency offset of the master reference exceeds scope occurs, it indicates that the phase lock failure is caused by the poor quality of the reference source. If the clock-related alarm exists, clear the faults. ----End

4.2.3 Debugging Networking of Multiple Reference Source


This describes how to debug the clock of the networking of the multiple reference sources.

Context
Multiple clock reference sources can be configured on the UMG8900. When the quality of the master reference source cannot meet the requirement, the system can automatically switch to the slave reference source. For example, the building integrated timing supply system (BITS) clock reference source (namely external synchronization reference source) and line clock reference source 1 (extracting clock signals from the peer office) are configured on the UMG8900. In normal conditions, the UMG8900 locks the BITS clock. When the UMG8900 fails to trace the BITS clock, it can automatically switch to lock the peer office clock. When multiple reference sources are configured, check whether the reference sources can be normally switched over. Suppose the BITS clock reference source and line clock reference source 1 are configured. The BITS is of a higher priority level and the UMG8900 extracts clock signals from the BITS by default. When the UMG8900 fails to trace the BITS, it automatically switches to line clock reference source 1. When the BITS clock signals are available, the UMG8900 automatically relock the BITS clock.

Procedure
Step 1 Check whether the master reference source of the CLK is normal according to 4.2.2 Debugging Networking of Single Reference Source. Step 2 Pull the clock cables out of the 2M_IN interfaces on the master and slave CLKs. Then, the alarms ALM_2202 Reference Source Losing and ALM_2209 Phase Locking Status Switch occur, and the phase-locked state changes from locked to holdover. Step 3 10 minutes later, run DSP CLK to check whether the slave reference source is locked. When the phase-locked state is locked, it indicates that the master reference source is switched to line clock 1.
NOTE

After the CLK relocks the slave reference source, ALM_2209 Phase Locking Status Switch occurs, and the phase-locked state changes from holdover to locked.

Step 4 Reconnect the master reference source cables. 10 minutes later, run DSP CLK to check whether the master reference source is locked.

The phase-lock state is locked, and the master reference source switches to the external synchronization reference source. The external synchronization reference source refers to the BITS clock. ----End

4.3.1 Checking Time Synchronization Mode


This describes how to check the time synchronization mode.

Context
Run LST TIMESYC to check the time synchronization mode. Three time synchronization modes are listed as follows:
l

Global positioning system (GPS) mode: GPS satellite signals are obtained to synchronize the local system time. Network Time Protocol (NTP) mode: The NTP is used to synchronize the time with the NTP server through the network. Real Time Transport Protocol (RTC) mode: The UMG8900 does not synchronize with the external and completely depends on the RTC clock.

By default, the RTC mode is used.

4.3.2 Checking Time Zone


This describes how to check the time zone.

Procedure
If the Network Time Protocol (NTP) or global positioning system (GPS) mode is used to obtain time, you must check the setting of the time zone. Run LST TZ to check the time zone. GMT_1200 to GMT_0100 indicate the west time zones. GMT+0100 to GMT+1400 indicate the east time zones. GMT refers to Greenwich Mean Time. Run SET TZ to set the time zone. Then, the system coverts the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) to the local time. ----End

4.4.2 SSM-32 Self-Cascading


This describes the SSM-32 self-cascading.

The TNC in the main control frame is the UG02TNC providing two time division multiplexing (TDM) channels or the UG01TNC. The TNC in the service frame is the UG02TNC providing one TDM cascading channel or the UG01TNC. In the case of SSM-32 self-cascading, up to three frames can be cascaded. The central switching frame and main control frame are combined. Each service frame connects with the central switching frame through one fast Ethernet (FE) and one TDM cascading channel. Service frames must connect with the main control frame through the TDM cascading optical interface 0 on its TNC. TDM cascading optical interfaces 0 and 1 of the central switching frame or main control frame are respectively connected to TDM cascading interface 0 in other two frames. Four FE interfaces exist on the TNC. FE interfaces 1 and 2 are connected to FE interface 3 on the TNCs of the other two frames to implement the FE cascading of service frames. If the GE cascading exists, insert the NLU into slots 4 and 5 or slots 10 and 11 of frame 1 to implement the GE cascading between two service frames.

The TNC in the main control frame is the UG02TNC providing four time division multiplexing (TDM) channels. The TNC in the service frame is the UG02TNC providing two TDM cascading channels. The UMG8900 supports up to three frames in SSM-32 self-cascading. The central switching frame and the main control frame are integrated. The UMG8900 provides four TDM cascading optical interfaces. The service frame connects to the main control frame through the 1 FE + 2 TDM cascading channel to implement the 2 x 8 K TDM cascading. The service frame must connect with the main control frame through TDM cascading optical interfaces 0 and 1 on the TNC. The TNC provides two TDM cascading optical interfaces. Cascading optical interfaces 0 and 1 on the TNC in the central switching and main control integrated frame connect to TDM cascading optical interfaces 0 and 1 on the TNC in service frame 1. For service frame 1, refer to 2# in Figure 4-6.

4.4.3 SSM-256 and SSM-32 Mixed Cascading (UG01NET and BLU.A Configured)
This describes the SSM-256 and SSM-32 mixed cascading when the UG01NET works with the BLU.A. SSM-256 and SSM-32 frames support mixed cascading. That is, an SSM-256 central switching frame, served by a dedicated frame or the main control frame, can cascade with SSM-256 or SSM-32 frames. Thus, two mixed networking modes with different capacities can be adopted to satisfy actual needs. Each TNB or BLU in the SSM-256 central switching frame can cascade with one SSM-256 frame or four SSM-32 frames. Thus, the number of service frames that can be attached is n x SSM-256 + (7 - n) x 4 x SSM-32, where n refers to the number of SSM-256 frames except the central switching frame. When only SSM-32 frames are attached, up to 28 service frames can be cascaded. The cascading of the SSM-256 central switching frame and SSM-256 service frames is described in 4.4.1 SSM-256 Self-Cascading. Thus, only the cascading of the SSM-256 central switching frame and SSM-32 service frames is shown here. When the UG01NET and BLU.A are configured in the SSM-256 frame, the SSM-256 frame is cascaded with the SSM-32 frame in two modes:

If the TNC in the SSM-32 frame provides one TDM cascading optical interface, the SSM-256 frame can cascade with four SSM-32 frames, that is, one SSM-32 main control frame and three SSM-32 service frames. Each SSM-32 service frame connects with the central switching frame through one fast Ethernet (FE) and one time division multiplexing (TDM) cascading channel. SSM-32 service frames must connect with the central switching frame through TDM cascading optical port 0 on the TNC. Figure 4-7 shows the mixed cascading of one SSM-256 frame and four SSM-32 frames through the TNB.

In this mode, the main control frame and the central switching frame are cascaded through the TNB to implement the TDM service cascading. The cascading of the control plane is implemented through the FE cascading interface of the NET. For the cascading of the GE plane, only one service frame is cascaded. Connect the optical interface on the NLU of the service frame to the GE interfaces of the master and slave NETs to implement the GE cascading. The NLU can be configured in slots 4 and 5 or slots 10 and 11 of the SSM-32 service frame. On the FE plane, main control frame 1 connects to the FE interface on the NET in central switching frame 0 through the FE3 interface on the TNC. Service frames 2, 3, and 4 respectively connect to the FE2, FE1, and FE0 interface in main control frame 1 through the FE3 interfaces. Main control frame 1 can be considered as a level-2 cascading frame.

If the TNC in the SSM-32 frame provides two TDM cascading optical interfaces, the SSM-256 frame can cascade with two SSM-32 frames, that is, one SSM-32 main control frame and one SSM-32 service frame. Each SSM-32 frame connects to the SSM-256 central switching frame through the 1 FE + 2 TDM cascading channel. The SSM-32 frame must connect to the SSM-256 central switching frame through TDM cascading optical interfaces 0 and 1 on the TNC. Figure 4-8 shows the mixed cascading of one SSM-256 frame and two SSM-32 frames through the TNB. Figure 4-8 Mixed cascading of one SSM-256 frame and two SSM-32 frames through the TNB

If the TNC in the SSM-32 frame provides two TDM cascading optical interfaces, the SSM-256 frame can cascade with two SSM-32 frames, that is, one SSM-32 main control frame and one SSM-32 service frame. On the TDM plane, the first SSM-32 frame, main control frame, connects to optical interfaces 0 and 1 on the BLU through TDM optical interfaces 0 and 1 on the UG02TNC. The second SSM-32 frame, service frame, connects to optical interfaces 2 and 3 on the BLU through TDM optical interfaces 0 and 1 on the UG02TNC.
NOTE

The cascading on the FE and GE planes is the same as the cascading of four SSM-32 frames through the BLU.

4.4.4 SSM-256 and SSM-32 Mixed Cascading (UG02NET and BLU.C Configured)
This describes the SSM-256 and SSM-32 mixed cascading when the UG02NET works with the BLU.C. SSM-256 and SSM-32 frames support mixed cascading. That is, an SSM-256 central switching frame, served by a dedicated frame or the main control frame, can cascade with SSM-256 or SSM-32 frames. Thus, two mixed networking modes with different capacities can be adopted to satisfy actual needs. Each TNB or BLU in the SSM-256 central switching frame can cascade with one SSM-256 frame or four SSM-32 frames. Thus, the number of service frames that can be attached is n x SSM-256 + (7 - n) x 4 x SSM-32, where n refers to the number of SSM-256 frames except the central switching frame. When only SSM-32 frames are attached, up to 28 service frames can be cascaded. When the UG02NET and the BLU.C are configured in the SSM-256 frame, the SSM-256 frame can be cascaded with the SSM-32 frame in the following modes:

4.4.5 Process of Cascading Switchover


This describes the process of cascading switchover. If the cascading interfaces in two cascaded frames are not in the same status, the UMG8900 synchronizes the status of the two interfaces through the master/slave switchover. The following takes the UG01BLU or the UG02BLU.A as an example. The master/slave status of the BLU is based on the master/slave status of the cascading interface on the cascaded TNB/TNC/NET. After a BLU starts up, if the master/slave status of the BLU is not the same with that of the cascading part in the TNB/TNC/NET, the BLU is automatically switched to the status of the TNB/TNC/NET through the resetting if the switchover flag is on. The switchover principles of the UG02BLU.C are the same as those of the NET. Refer to the switchover process of the NET.
NOTE

The cascading switchover flag of the UMG8900 can automatically turn on or off based on the current status. If the cascading interfaces on the BLU are connected with optical fibers and are connected with the TNU properly, the cascading switchover flag turns on automatically; otherwise, the cascading switchover flag turns off automatically.

The following takes the UG01BLU or the UG02BLU.A as an example. Any of the following conditions can cause the BLU to be reset and switched between the master and slave status.
l

The master/slave status of the cascading part in the TNB/TNC in a cascaded frame is inconsistent with that of the BLU in the central switching frame. The master/slave state of the cascading part in the NET in a cascaded frame is inconsistent with that of the BLU in the central switching frame.

If the displayed state of the two OMUs is link, contact Huawei Technical Support for help.

If not, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Log in to the alarm management system, and check whether ALM_3233 Packet loss rate reached threshold occurs and whether packet loss occurs on the external network ports providing network cables on the NET. The network ports include the OMC port, MIR port, FE0 port, and FE1 port. If the preceding problems occur, perform the following steps: 1. 2. Check whether the work mode of the port is FULL_100 M. If not, modify it to FULL_100 M. Then, observe whether the alarm still occurs. If the alarm of packet loss or packet error still occurs when the work mode is FULL_100 M, the network cable may be of poor quality. Replace the network cable, and then observe whether the alarm still occurs. If the problem persists after the peer setting problem and the problem of the network cable quality are ruled out, contact Huawei Technical Support for help.

4.4.9 Debugging TDM Cascading


This describes how to debug the time division multiplexing (TDM) interface cascading.

Context

CAUTION
Before debugging the TDM plane, make sure that the clock system is normal. The TDM plane is used to carry all the TDM related services, including the TDM trunk access, signaling transfer, and various types of semi-permanent connection services. When the TDM plane in the frame fails,
l

If the master TDM plane fails, the system resets the related faulty ports to recover the master TDM plane and does not switch to the slave TDM plane. If the master TDM plane fails, services are interrupted.

When the TDM plane between frames fails,


l

If the master TDM cascading plane between frames fails, the system automatically switches to the slave TDM cascading plane between frames. If the master and slave TDM cascading planes between frames fail, the TDM services inside the cascading frames and the TDM services across the cascading frames are all interrupted.

Procedure
Step 1 Debug TDM channels in each frame. The dialing test covers all the interface boards in each frame. With the co-work of the softswitch, specify a trunk on each TDM interface board to make

dialing tests. If the call is normal and the voice quality is good, it indicates that the master TDM plane is normal. When the dialing test is made on a trunk, if one-way audio or no audio occurs to any other users, or all the signaling links on the board are disconnected or intermittently disconnected, perform the following step: Run SWP BRD to switch over the master and slave TNUs in the frame.
l

If the preceding faults are cleared, it indicates that the faults are caused by the master TNU in the frame before the switchover. Replace the related board. Otherwise, it indicates that the interface board is abnormal, and you must replace the interface board.

Step 2 Debug TDM channels between frames. Choose a frame, specify a trunk as the calling service trunk, and choose the trunks in other service frames as the called trunks in turn. With the co-work of the softswitch, make dialing tests on the specified trunk. If the call is normal and the voice quality is good, it indicates that the master TDM plane is normal. Specify a trunk in each of the other frames as the calling service trunk, and choose the trunks in the rest frames as the called trunks. With the co-work of the softswitch, make dialing tests on the specified trunk. For example, four frames provide TDM services, and they are respectively frame A, frame B, frame C, and frame D. Specify the trunk in frame A as the calling service trunk, and those in frame B, frame C, and frame D as the called service trunks. When the dialing test is complete, specify the trunk in frame B as the calling service trunk, and those in frame C and frame D as the called service trunks. At last, specify the trunk in frame C as the calling service trunk, and that in frame D as the called service trunk. The dialing test covers all the frames. When a specified trunk in a frame is used to make dialing test for other frames, if one-way audio or no audio occurs, or all the signaling links across frames are disconnected or intermittently disconnected, perform the following steps: 1. 2. 3. Replace the related TNU, TCLU, TNB, and TNC in the service frame. Replace cascading optical fibers. Replace the TNU in the central switching frame to locate the fault.

Step 3 Switch over the master and slave TNUs in each frame, and repeat Step 1. If the call is normal and the voice quality is good, it indicates that the slave TDM plane in each frame is normal. Step 4 Switch over the master and slave TNUs in each frame, and repeat Step 2. If the call is normal and the voice quality is good, it indicates that the slave channels between frames are normal. ----End

If the master GE plane fails, ALM_1606 GE channel fault occurs. According to the reasons for the GE plane failure, the system switches over the boards related to the GE plane to eliminate the effect on the services. The system does not debug the slave GE plane. Even if the slave GE plane fails, no alarm occurs, and services are not affected temporarily; great hidden trouble, however, exists. If the master GE plane fails at a certain time, services are interrupted, and a fault occurs. Therefore, the system detects the slave GE plane, which includes the detection between frames and the detection in frames. The detection between frames is classified as follows:
l l

Direct connection and cascading between SSM-265 frames Direct connection and cascading between the SSM-256 frame and the SSM-32 frame

The system periodically switches over the GE planes to detect the GE planes between frames. The slave plane is switched over to the master plane, and then is detected in the same way as that the master plane is detected. By inlooping the PHY port on the GE LAN Switch of the slave switch board, the chip is detected based on the received and sent packages of each port. In multiframe cascading mode, GE cascading may not exist between some frames. Therefore, analyze the GE cascading between frames, and know about the frames related to GE cascading. The subsequent debugging is for the GE-related boards in the frames. The multiframe GE cascading debugging ensures that the GE channels between two GE-related boards are normal when two GE planes exist. The purpose of debugging the GE cascading is to:
l l

Ensure that the GE boards in frames can communicate on the two planes. Ensure that the GE boards between two frames related to the GE cascading can communicate on the two planes.

Procedure
Step 1 Run SWP BRD to switch over the NET or the MPB in the frames related to the GE cascading. Make the boards in slots 7 of all frames the master boards, and the BLUs in the slots with the smaller slot Nos. in all frames the master boards.

CAUTION
If the NET is directly connected to the central switching frame and the NET in slot 7 of the directly connected frame is the master board, switch over the NETs to change the NET in slot 8 to the master board, and then switch over them again to make the NET in slot 7 to the master board. Switching over the NETs twice ensures that the directly connected frame and the central switching frame can communicate through the optical fiber connecting to the NET in slot 7. Step 2 Debug GE channels in each frame. Select a board related to the GE channel in the frame, such as the HRB and the VPU, as the source board. Take other boards with the GE channels as the

destination boards. Run LOP GE to debug GE channels in turn. The optional path includes the HRB-VPU. For example, run the following command to debug the GE channels between the VPU in front slot 2 of frame 1 and the HRB in slot 14:
LOP GE: SFN=1, SSN=2, SBP=FRONT, DFN=1, DSN=14, DBP=FRONT, TN=10; l

During the debugging with LOP GE, if a large number of GE channels are disconnected, the switching net board may fail. Replace the switching net board. For the SSM-256 frame, the switching net board is the NET; for the SSM-32 frame, the switching net board is the OMB/MPB. During the debugging with LOP GE, if the GE channels are disconnected or packet loss occurs, the channels from the source board to the switching net boar or the channels from the switching net board to the source board may fail. Suppose that A is the source board and B is the destination board. If the GE channels from A to B are disconnected, run LOP GE on the channels from A to C and the channels from B to C. If the channels from A to C are normal and the channels from B to C are abnormal, it indicates that the channels from B to the switching net board fail. When the channels from B to the GE switching net board are disconnected, the reasons may be:

Failure of the service board Failure of the GE switching net board Failure of the cabling on the backplane between the service board and GE switching net board

In this case, replace the boards and slots to locate the fault, and then replace the components. Step 3 Debug GE channels between frames. Choose a pair of HRBs or VPUs in a frame related to the cascading as the source boards, and a HRB or VPU in other frames with the GE cascading as the destination board. Run LOP GE to debug the channels in turn.
l

During the debugging with LOP GE, if a large number of GE channels are disconnected, the switching net board may fail. Replace the switching net board. For the SSM-256 frame, the switching net board is the NET; for the SSM-32 frame, the switching net board is the OMB/MPB. During the debugging with LOP GE, if the GE channels are disconnected or packet loss occurs, the channels from the source board to the switching net boar or the channels from the destination board to the switching net board may fail. Suppose that A is the source board and B is the destination board. If the GE channels from A to B are disconnected, run LOP GE on the channels from A to C and the channels from B to C. If the channels from A to C are normal and the channels from B to C are abnormal, it indicates that the channels from B to the switching net board fail. When the channels from B to the GE switching net board are disconnected, the reasons may be:

Failure of the service board Failure of the GE switching net board Failure of the cabling on the backplane between the service board and GE switching net board

In this case, replace the boards and slots to locate the fault, and then replace the components.

CAUTION
The GE channels between boards in different frames tested by LOP GE go in the following direction: GE service board -> NET/MPB in the service frame -> GE cascading board -> NET in the central switching frame -> GE cascading board -> NET in the service frame -> GE service board. In the two tests of the master and slave planes in the frame, do not change the source board, or the destination board. Step 4 Switch over the master and slave states of the cascading switching net boards. Run SWP BRD to switch over the GE cascading net boards in the frames related to the GE cascading. Change the boards in slots 8 of all the frames to the master boards, and the BLUs in the slots with the bigger slot Nos. in all the frames to the master boards. Repeat Step 2 and Step 3.
TIP

If the GE channels between the NETs/MPBs of two frames are disconnected or packet loss occurs, locate the fault by testing whether the GE channels between the two frames and between the two frames and a third frame are connected. Perform the following steps:
l

Make a loopback test on the boards between frames A and B. If the GE channels between frames A and B are disconnected, test the GE channels from frame A to frame C and from frame B to frame C. If the GE channels from frame B to frame C are normal, it indicates that the fault locates between frame A and the central switching frame. Replace the optical fiber, GE cascading board, NET or MPB switching net board, and backplane in order until all the faults are cleared.

4.5 Debugging Service Resources


This describes how to debug service resources including transcoder (TC), echo cancellation (EC), interworking function (IWF), and multiparty service (MPTY).

Context
Here describes how to debug the resources of the UMG8900, including TC, EC, IWF, and MPTY. The resources are static, and thus debugging is performed by means of call setup. It is recommended to debug every VPU and ECU. 4.5.1 Debugging TC Resources This describes how to debug the transcoder (TC) resources. 4.5.2 Debugging EC Resources This describes how to debug the echo cancellation (EC) resources. 4.5.3 Debugging MPTY Resources This describes how to debug the multiparty service (MPTY) resources. 4.5.4 Debugging IWF Resources This describes how to debug the interworking function (IWF) resources.

4.5.1 Debugging TC Resources


This describes how to debug the transcoder (TC) resources.

Context
TC is transcoder resources. When two terminations used for communication have no common voice codec format, the TC resources are used to convert voice codecs. The most direct and effective way for TC debugging is to establish a call that needs TC resources. If the call is established, it indicates that the UMG8900 has TC resources and can use them. Otherwise, check the configurations step by step.

Procedure
Step 1 Check whether the TC resource subboard is configured on the VPU. The VPU has three slots for subboards, which are numbered 0, 1 and 2 from the top to the bottom respectively. Slots 0 and 1 can hold only TC subboard, and slot 2 can hold either TC subboard or EC subboard. Step 2 Check the total number of TC resources and their occupation information. Run DSP MEDIARES, set the resource type to TC, and then you can view the statistics information of TC channels. The following information is displayed: the total number of TC resources, total number of failed TC resources, and TC occupation information. Step 3 Check the configurations of the codec capability on the VPU. Run LST CODECCAP to check whether the codec capability set on the VPU supports the codec required by the call. For details on the codec capability sets, see SET CODECCAP. Step 4 Establish a call that needs TC resources. Make dialing test through IP trunks. Step 5 Adjust work parameters of TC resources. If the poor quality of voice or fax results from the network congestion, run SET TCPARA to change TC work parameters such as encapsulation interval and dynamic jitter buffer. It is recommended to adjust the work parameters of TC resources under the guidance of Huawei engineers. ----End

4.5.2 Debugging EC Resources


This describes how to debug the echo cancellation (EC) resources.

Context
The EC resources are used to cancel echoes. The most direct and effective way for EC debugging is to set up a call that needs EC resources and check if echo accompanies the call. A good-quality call with no echo indicates that EC resources are provided by the UMG8900 and can be used.

Procedure
Step 1 Establish a call that does not need EC resources. When configuring MGC data, you do not add the EC resource. Make dialing tests and check the voice quality. This step is to compare the quality of the call with that of the call using EC resources. Step 2 Check whether the EC resource subboard is configured on the VPU and ECU. The VPU has three slots to hold subboards. Slot 2 can hold the EC subboard, and the two slots of the ECU can both hold EC subboards. Step 3 Check the total number of EC resources. Run DSP MEDIARES, set the resource type to EC, and then you can view the statistics information of EC channels. The following information is displayed: total number of EC resources and total number of failed TC resources. Step 4 Establish a call that uses EC resources. When configuring media gateway controller (MGC) data, add EC resources. Make dialing tests and check the voice quality. A good-quality call with no echo indicates that EC resources are configured on the UMG8900 and can be used. Then, debugging EC resources is complete. Step 5 Adjust work parameters of EC resources. If the loud echo persists when EC resources are used, run SET ECPARA to modify EC work parameters such as tail length. It is recommended to adjust the work parameters of EC resources under the guidance of Huawei engineers. ----End

4.5.3 Debugging MPTY Resources


This describes how to debug the multiparty service (MPTY) resources.

Context
The UMG8900 provides MPTY resources, that is, audio mixing resources, to support call services of multiple parties. The most direct and effective way for MPTY debugging is to establish multiparty service calls. The participating parties include fixed-line phones and wireless user terminals. If the voice in the calls is clear, it indicates that the UMG8900 has the MPTY resources and can use them. Otherwise, check the configurations of the MPTY resources.

Procedure
Step 1 Establish a multiparty service call that needs MPTY resources. Join the conference and check the voice quality.
l

If the voice quality is good, it indicates that the MPTY resources are configured on the UMG8900 and can be used properly, and thus you do not need to perform other debugging operations. Otherwise, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Run DSP MEDIARES, set the resource type to MPTY, and you can view the statistics information of MPTY channels. The following information is displayed: the total number of MPTY channels and the total number of failed MPTY resources.
l l

If the total number of MPTY channels is 0, perform Step 3. Otherwise, perform Step 4.

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

Step 3 Check whether the MPTY resource subboard is configured on the VPU. The VPU has three slots for subboards, and the slots are numbered 0, 1, and 2 from the top to the bottom. Slots 0 and 1 can hold 1,024 channels, and slot 2 can hold 2,048 channels.
NOTE

The hardware of the MPTY resource subboard and TC resource subboard is the MVDB subboard. MPTY resources can be configured on the MVDB only when it is in slot 2.

Step 4 Run LST CODECCAP to check the number of MPTY channels on the VPU. ----End

4.5.4 Debugging IWF Resources


This describes how to debug the interworking function (IWF) resources.

Context
The most direct and efficient way for IWF debugging is to use a PC connected to an MS to send fax to the public switched telephone network (PSTN). If the fax quality is good, it indicates that the UMG8900 can use IWF resources. Otherwise, check the configurations of IWF resources.

Procedure
Step 1 Send a fax that needs IWF resources. That is, send a fax from a mobile station (MS) to the PSTN or from the PSTN to an MS.
l

If the fax quality is good, it indicates the IWF resources are configured on the UMG8900 and can be used properly, and then perform Step 3. Otherwise, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Check the physical connection between the UMG8900 and the shared interworking function (SIWF) and check whether the LINK indicator of FE0 interface on the NET is on.
NOTE

FE0 interface on the NET of the UMG8900 is connected with the FE interface on the SIWC of the SIWF to implement the interworking of the control plane.

Step 3 Run DSP SIWFSTAT to check whether the SIWF is registered. If not, run ACT SIWFFUN to activate the IWF. Step 4 Run LST TDMIU to check whether the type of the TDM trunk connecting with the SIWF is inside. Step 5 Run LST IWFE1 to display E1 No. The E1 No. must be consistent with the E1 No. specified by ADD E1 on the SIWF side. ----End

5 Debugging Interconnection Between the UMG8900 and the MGC

5.1 Debugging Gateway Control Interfaces


This describes how to debug the gateway control interface on the physical layer, data link data, and network layer.

Context
Debugging the gateway control interface is to detect whether the UMG8900 and the media gateway controller (MGC) are connected on the network layer.

Procedure
Step 1 Run PING to ping the IP address of the physical interface of the MGC from the board where the physical interface is located. The board where the physical interface is located can be the PPU, MPU, or OMU based on the networking plan.
l

If the UMG8900 receives the response from the MGC, it indicates that the UMG8900 and the MGC are connected on the network layer. Then, you do not need to perform other steps. If the UMG8900 does not receive the response from the MGC, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Check whether the LINK indicator of the physical interface is on. If the LINK indicator is off, check whether the network cable of FE0 is fixedly inserted, whether the HUB or LAN Switch at the other end of the network cable suffers from power failure, or whether a network cable is at fault. After you handle the faults and the LINK indicator is on, ping the IP address of the physical interface of the MGC from the board where the physical interface is located.
l

If the UMG8900 receives the response from the MGC, it indicates that the UMG8900 and the MGC are connected on the network layer. Then, you need not perform any other steps. If the UMG8900 does not receive the response from the MGC, perform Step 3.

Step 3 Run DSP IPIF to check the state of the physical interface. Normally, the state of the interface on both the physical layer and the link layer is UP. In the case of the UP interface state on the physical layer but the DOWN interface state on the link layer, check whether the local settings of the FE interface rate, duplex mode, and maximum transmission unit are the same as those of the peer router. If not, run MOD IPIF to modify the settings, and then check whether the state of the interface on the link layer is UP.
NOTE

For the interfaces on the OMU, MPU, PPU, and SPF, the duplex modes at two ends are set to auto.

After you handle the faults and the state of the interface on both the physical layer and the link layer is UP, ping the IP address of the physical interface of the MGC from the board where the physical interface is located.
l

If the UMG8900 receives the response from the MGC, it indicates that the UMG8900 and the MGC are connected on the network layer. Then, you do not need to perform other steps. If the UMG8900 does not receive the response from the MGC, perform Step 4.

Step 4 Run DSP ROUTE to check the route from the board where the physical interface is located to the physical interface of the MGC.

5 Debugging Interconnection Between the UMG8900 and the MGC

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

Configure the route. After you confirm that the route information is correct, ping the IP address of the physical interface of the MGC from the board where the physical interface is located.
l

If the UMG8900 receives the response from the MGC, it indicates that the UMG8900 and the MGC are connected on the network layer. Then, you need not perform other steps. If the UMG8900 does not receive the response from the MGC, perform Step 5.

Step 5 Check the access control list (ACL) rules of the firewall on the board where the interface to check is located. Check whether the ACL rules causing disconnection is configured on the route between the board and the interconnected interface. Disable the firewall and then make ping tests. ----End

Postrequisite
After debugging the gateway control interface, debug the gateway registration function.

5.2 Debugging Gateway Registration Function


This describes how to check whether the UMG8900 registers with the media gateway controller (MGC).

Context
Debugging the gateway registration function is to debug whether the UMG8900 registers with the MGC.

Procedure
Step 1 Run DSP VMGW to check whether the VMGW state is ACTIVE.
l

If yes, it indicates that the UMG8900 registers with the MGC. Then, you do not need to perform other steps. If not, it indicates that the UMG8900 fails to register with the MGC. Perform Step 2.

Step 2 Run ACT VMGW to activate the UMG8900 to initiate the registration with the MGC. Then, run DSP VMGW to check whether the VMGW state is ACTIVE.
l

If yes, it indicates that the UMG8900 registers with the MGC. Then, you do not need to perform other steps. If not, it indicates that the UMG8900 fails to register with the MGC. Perform Step 3.

Step 3 Run DSP H248LNK to check whether the link state is UP.
l

If the H.248 link state is UP, it indicates that the link is established on the transport layer, and then perform Step 6. If the H.248 link state is DOWN, it indicates that the link is not established on the transport layer.

Fill in Table 5-1 based on the output result of DSP H248LNK.

Table 5-1 H.248 link information H.248 Link No. Local IP Address Local Port No. Peer IP Address Peer Port No. Transport Protocol Type

Step 4 Compare the data in Table 5-1 with that on the MGC side. Check whether the data is consistent. If the local IP address and local port No. of the UMG8900 are the same as the destination IP address and destination port No. of the MGC and the destination IP address and destination port No. of the UMG8900 are the same as the local IP address and local port No. of the MGC, perform Step 5. If any data is inconsistent, modify the related configurations of the UMG8900. Then, run DSP VMGW to check whether the UMG8900 registers with the MGC.
l

If yes, it indicates that the UMG8900 registers with the MGC. Then, you do not need to perform other steps. If not, it indicates that the UMG8900 fails to register with the MGC. Perform Step 5.

Step 5 Run LST SCTPINIT to check whether the SCTP protocol stack parameters on the PPU are consistent with those on the MGC side. Check whether the check algorithms on the UMG8900 and MGC sides are the same, that is, CRC32 or ADLER32. If not, the SCTP link establishment fails.

CAUTION
After modifying the SCTP attributes, make sure to restart the module where the PPU board is located, and then the modified parameters can take effect. If the check algorithms on the UMG8900 and MGC sides are inconsistent, modify the related configurations. Then, run DSP VMGW to check whether the state of the current VMGW is ACTIVE.
l

If yes, it indicates that the UMG8900 registers with the MGC. Then, you do not need to perform other steps. If not, it indicates that the UMG8900 fails to register with the MGC. Perform Step 6.

Step 7 Run LST VMGW to check whether the VMGW ID is consistent with that on the MGC side. If not, modify the related parameters. ----End

Postrequisite
After debugging the gateway registration function, debug the load sharing of the PPU.

5.3 Debugging PPU Load Sharing


This describes how to debug the load sharing of the PPUs.

Context
In actual networking applications, usually multiple PPUs are configured on the UMG8900 to archive load sharing of the H.248 control packets with the media gateway controller (MGC). You must debug the PPU load sharing during the deployment.

Procedure
Step 1 Run LST H248LNK to check whether H.248 links are reasonably planned. Check whether H.248 links are planned on each physical board that is equipped with the PPU module. Step 2 Debug the H.248 links board by board. When debugging the H.248 links of a board equipped with the PPU module, you must remove the other boards equipped with the PPU modules.Run DEA VMGW and then ACT VMGW. After running ACT VMGW, run DSP VMGW to check whether the VMGW state is ACTIVE.
l

If yes, it indicates that the virtual media gateway (VMGW) can use the H.248 links on the PPU to complete registration with the MGC. Make dialing tests. If the call is connected, it indicates that load sharing between the PPUs is enabled. If not, see 5.2 Debugging Gateway Registration Function.

The interfaces between the UMG8900 and the radio network controller (RNC) are connected through optical fibers. When the capacity of the interfaces is small or optical transmission resources are limited, the interfaces are connected in inverse multiplexing over ATM (IMA) mode through E1 cables. The connection in IMA mode is rare, and thus here describes how to debug the Iu interfaces connected through optical fibers.

6 Debugging Interconnection Between the UMG8900 and the RNC

6.1 Debugging ATM Interfaces


This describes how to debug the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) interface on the physical layer.

Procedure
Step 1 Check the LINK indicator of the optical interface on the back board of the ASU is normal (green).
l

If the LINK indicator is on, it indicates that the physical connection is normal. Then perform Step 5. If the LINK indicator is off, it indicates that the physical connection fails. Then perform Step 2.

Step 2 On the optical distribution frame (ODF), use the ring flange to make a loopback test on the UMG8900. Check whether the LINK indicator is on.
NOTE

It is recommended to loop back the peer radio network controller (RNC) on the ODF, tell the peer operator to check whether the peer synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) interface indicator is normal, and check whether the transmission between the ODF and the peer RNC is normal.
l

If the LINK indicator is still off during the loopback test, replace the optical fiber or the board. Cancel the loopback after handling the related fault. Then, check whether the LINK indicator is on.

If yes, perform Step 5. If not, make the loopback test again. If the LINK indicator is on after the loopback test, perform Step 3.

If the LINK indicator is on during the loopback test but is off after loopback cancellation, perform Step 3.

Step 3 Check whether the receiving and sending ends of optical fibers are connected reversely. Exchange the receiving and sending ends of optical fibers of the local optical interface, and check whether the LINK indicator is on.
l l

If yes, perform Step 5. If not, perform Step 4.

Step 4 Run LST OPTINFO to check the information of the optical module. Check whether the optical fiber matches the optical module, and whether the optical module of the RNC matches that of the A4L. Step 5 Run LST SDHFLAG to check the overhead configuration of the local ATM optical interface and whether the overhead byte is consistent with that of the peer RNC. Step 6 Run DSP PORTSTS to check the detailed information of the ATM optical interface and whether the existing error bit counts constantly increase. If the error bit counts exist, the optical fiber may fail or the optical components of the ATM interface fails. ----End

6 Debugging Interconnection Between the UMG8900 and the RNC

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

Postrequisite
After debugging the ATM interface, debug the Signaling ATM Adaptation Layer (SAAL) link.

6.2 Debugging SAAL Links


This describes how to debug the Signaling ATM Adaptation Layer (SAAL) link.

Procedure
Step 1 Run DSP SAALLNK to check whether SSCOPState and SSCFState are Data Transfer Ready and whether LinkStatus is Connected.
l l

If LinkStatus is Connected, you need not perform other steps. If LinkStatus is Disconnected, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Create an SAAL interface trace task.


l

If you can view the related message, perform Step 4.


NOTE

During link establishment and upper-layer data transfer, the message is SD. If the link is normal, the maintenance message is POLL and STAT exchanged. The messages are updated quickly.
l

If you cannot view the related message, perform Step 3.

Step 3 Check whether the permanent virtual channels (PVCs) on the UMG8900 and the radio network controller (RNC) are connected. If yes, view the related message. After you view the related message, run DSP SAALLNK to check whether SSCOPState and SSCFState are Data Transfer Ready and whether LinkStatus is Connected.
l l

If LinkStatus is Connected, you need not perform other steps. If LinkStatus is Disconnected, perform Step 4.

Step 4 Run DSP MTP3BLNK to check whether the state of the link is available.
l

If not, modify the related configurations. Then, run DSP SAALLNK to check whether SSCOPState and SSCFState are Data Transfer Ready and whether LinkStatus is Connected. If yes, perform Step 5.

Step 5 If no SAAL link is configured on the RNC, you can loop back the UMG8900 on the optical distribution frame (ODF), and check the SAAL link state. If the link is normal, you can determine that the UMG8900 is normal. If not, check the optical interface and the optical fiber. ----End

Postrequisite
After debugging the SAAL link, debug the Message Transfer Part (broadband) (MTP3B) link.

6 Debugging Interconnection Between the UMG8900 and the RNC

Procedure
Step 1 Run DSP MTP3BLNK to check whether the running state of the MTP3B is available. Run DSP MTP3BDPC to check whether the destination signaling point (DSP) corresponding to the radio network controller (RNC) is available. If yes, debugging the MTP3B link is complete. Step 2 Start the MTP3B interface trace. Check whether messages are sent and received and whether the received messages (especially OPC, DPC, and SLC) are correct to determine whether the configurations on the UMG8900 and the RNC are correct. If the link is normal, the maintenance message is SLTM and SLTA exchanged. The messages are updated slowly. Step 3 Check the configured data, especially whether the originating signaling point (OSP), DSP, and link code are consistent with those of the RNC. ----End

Postrequisite
After debugging the MTP3B link, debug the Q.AAL2 link.

6.4 Debugging Q.AAL2 Links


This describes how to debug the Q.AAL2 link.

Procedure
Step 1 Run DSP QAAL2ADJNODE to check whether the Q.AAL2 adjacent node is normal.
l l

If yes, perform Step 2. If not, see 6.2 Debugging SAAL Links and 6.3 Debugging MTP3B Links to check the data of the lower three layers (MTP3B, SAAL, and PVC). After the fault is cleared, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Make a call on the radio network controller (RNC) side, and check whether the bearer channel can be established. Create a Q.AAL2 interface trace task on the UMG8900 to check the tracing messages.
l

Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives the ERQ message from the RNC but does not return the acknowledgement, it indicates that the AAL2 path used by the RNC during the call is not configured on the UMG8900. Run DSP AAL2PATH to check whether the local path ID is consistent with that of the RNC and whether the numbers of paths are the same. If not, modify the related parameters. Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives the ERQ message from the RNC and returns the RLC message, it indicates that no ATM resource is configured on the VMGW. Run LST AAL2VMGW to check whether the number of the virtual media gateway (VMGW) subscribers corresponding to the calls is configured. If the number is 0, modify it to the expected value. Normally, the UMG8900 receives the ERQ message from the RNC and returns the ECF acknowledgement message.

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

7.1 Making E1/T1 Self-Loopback Tests


This describes how to make the E1/T1 self-loopback test.

Context
After installing hardware, check whether the local E1/T1 cables are connected and whether the E1/T1 ports are normal before debugging software. The check can be performed by making the E1/T1 self-loopback test.

Procedure
Step 1 Pull all E1/T1 connectors of an E32/T32 out of the digital distribution frame (DDF). Step 2 Connect the receiving end and the sending end of the E1/T1 cables and make the local loopback test. Step 3 Run DSP E1PORT to display the state of the ports on one E32/T32. The displayed state of the E1/T1 ports is OK. If the state of the E1/T1 ports is Fault or DISABLE, check whether the E1/T1 cables are loosely inserted in the DDF or the E1/T1 connector is poorly welded. Make new E1/T1 connectors if necessary. Step 4 If the E1/T1 cables are well connected, the E1/T1 ports may have problems. Then, run LOP E1 to make the software loopback (the loopback mode is set to inloop) to check whether the state of the E1/T1 ports is OK. This loopback is made on the ports or chips through software, and it is not related to the physical connections. If the state of the E1/T1 ports is still faulty, it indicates that the hardware of the E1/ T1 port may be faulty. Step 5 If the state of the E1/T1 ports is OK, the E1/T1 cables are well connected with the DDF, and the E1/T1 connectors are good, use the multimeter to check whether the resistance between the copper sheet outside the E1/T1 connectors and the inside chip is normal. You can compare the resistance with the normal measured results of the E1/T1 connectors. Step 6 When the state of the E1/T1 ports is OK, perform the preceding steps to make self-loopback tests on and check the E1/T1 cables of other E32/T32 boards. Step 7 After the test, restore normal connection of all connectors. Run LOP E1 to set Loopback Mode to Non-loopback to cancel all the local loopbacks.
NOTE

Run DSP E1LOP to check whether all the loopbacks are cancelled.

7.2 Debugging E1/T1 Links


This describes how to debug the E1/T1 links.

Context
When E1/T1 links are used to interconnect with the UMG8900 and other devices, check whether the E1/T1 transmission channels work before making dialing tests. If the transmission channels

7 Debugging Interconnection Between the UMG8900 and the BSC/MSC/PSTN Switch

fail (the displayed state of the ports is FAULT) or the calls have noise, the bit error rate of the transmission channels is probably high. The commonly-used method is to make the loopback test and the bit error test. The steps are as follows: Connect the E1/T1 trunk with the interconnected device (such as the public switched telephone network (PSTN) switch), make dialing tests on the media gateway controller (MGC) by using a specified trunk, make voice services carried on the E1/T1 trunk, and then check whether the calls can be established and whether the voice quality is good.

Procedure
Step 1 According to 7.1 Making E1/T1 Self-Loopback Tests, check whether the links from the local digital distribution frame (DDF) to the E1/T1 ports are normal. When a problem arises, check whether the local links are normal. If yes, make the peer loopback test with the cooperation of the office site. Step 2 Run LOP E1 to loop back the peer device by setting Loopback Mode to Remote. Notify the peer side to check the state of the related peer E1/T1 ports. Alternatively, make the UMG8900 loopback on the peer device and check the state of the related E1/T1 ports. The state of the E1/ T1 ports shall be OK. The software loopback is made to check whether the end-to-end E1/T1 transmission is normal. If yes, perform Step 4. If not, perform Step 3. Step 3 Make the loopback test by segment to locate the faulty transmission segment. For example, make the UMG8900 loopback test on the peer DDF and check whether the end-to-end transmission is normal. If not, make the UMG8900 loopback test on the local DDF and locate the fault by segment. The hardware loopback is made to locate the transmission fault by segment. Step 4 If the loopback test is normal but the state of the ports is FAULT after the loopback is cancelled, run DSP E1PORT to check whether the frame format and line codec format of the UMG8900 are consistent with those of the interconnected device. When the frame format and line codec format of the UMG8900 and the interconnected device are inconsistent, the state of the ports is FAULT. Step 5 Run DSP SLIP to check the slips of the E1/T1 ports and the statistics information on slips generated on the lines. When the slips are of a large quantity, check the bit error rate and clock of the transmission lines. Step 6 After the test, restore normal connection of all connectors. Run LOP E1 with Loopback Mode set to Non-loopback to cancel all the local loopbacks. Run DSP E1LOP to check whether all the loopbacks are cancelled. Step 7 Run CHK E1CROSS to check whether the E32/T32 has crossed pairs.
NOTE

When running CHK E1CROSS, set Loopback Mode of the peer device to Remote. Make sure that you run DSP E1PORT to check that no loopback is occurring in the UMG8900.

If the state of the ports in the output results is OK, it indicates that the local port is normal. If the output result is among 0 to 31, it indicates that the port receives the data of the specific port with the output result. That is, the port and the port with the output result are in the crossconnected lines.

Step 8 Make dialing tests on the MGC by using a specified trunk with the voice services carried on it, and then check whether the calls can be established and whether the voice quality is good. Check each E1/T1 trunk by making dialing tests. ----End

7.3 Debugging E3/T3 Ports


This describes how to debug the E3/T3 ports.

Procedure
Step 1 Check whether the LINK indicator of the E3 interface is on.
l l

If yes, you do not need to perform the following steps. If not, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Run DSP E3PORT to check whether the frame format and framing mode of the UMG8900 are consistent with those of the peer device, whether the loopback is made on ports, and whether the alarm related to the port exists. After handling the related fault, check whether the LINK indicator is on. If not, perform Step 3. Step 3 Check whether the sending and receiving ends of the cables are connected reversely.
l

If yes, correct the cable connection. Then, check whether the LINK indicator is on. If not, perform Step 4. If not, perform Step 4.

Step 4 Run LOP E3 to set Loopback Type to Local Loop, Location to LIU, and Mode to Local Digit Loopback.
l

If the LINK indicator is on, it indicates that the PIE is normal. In this case, run LOP E3 to cancel the loopback. Then, perform Step 6. If the LINK indicator is not on, it indicates that the PIE fails. Replace the PIE and then perform Step 5. If yes, you do not need to perform the following steps. If not, perform Step 6.

Step 5 Run LOP E3 to cancel the loopback and then check whether the LINK indicator is on.
l l

Step 6 Run LOP E3. Set Loopback Type to FEAC Peer Loop, Location to E3/T3 Line, and Mode to Enable LoopBack.
NOTE

You can use FEAC peer loopback only when the used framing mode is C-bit Parity and the peer device supports FEAC peer loop.

If the LINK indicator is not on, it indicates that the peer device or cable is faulty. You can ask the peer end to make self loopback to check whether the peer board is abnormal. Step 7 Run LOP E3 to set Loopback Type to FEAC Peer Loop, Location to E3/T3 Line, and Mode to Disable Loopback. ----End

7.4 Debugging SDH Interfaces


This describes how to debug the synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) interfaces.

Procedure
Step 1 Check whether the LINK indicator of the SDH interface is on.
l l

If yes, perform Step 5. If not, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Perform the local loopback test with a flange on the optical distribution frame (ODF) and check whether the LINK indicator is on.
NOTE

It is recommended to loop back the peer device on the ODF at the same time, inform the peer end to check whether the indicator on the peer SDH interface is normal, and check whether the transmission between the ODF and the peer device is normal.
l

If the LINK indicator is on, it indicates that the optical fiber from the ODF to the local end is normal. Then perform Step 3. If the LINK indicator is off, replace the optical fiber or the board, and clear the related fault. Cancel the loopback and check whether the LINK indicator is on. If yes, perform Step 5. If not, perform Step 3.

Step 3 If the LINK indicator is on during the loopback test but is off after the loopback is cancelled, the sending and receiving ends of the cables may be connected inversely. Cancel the loopback, exchange the sending and receiving ends of the local cables and check whether the LINK indicator is on.
l l

If yes, perform Step 5. If not, perform Step 4.

Step 4 Run DSP S2LPORT to check whether the frame type and frame format are consistent with those of the peer device. Clear the related fault, and perform Step 5. Step 5 Check whether the alarm related to the SDH interface exists in the alarm management system. According to the alarm information, check whether the SDH overhead bytes are consistent with those of the peer device.
l

If ALM_2613 Signal identifier of SDH higher order path mismatching,ALM_2614 SDH higher order path not loaded,or ALM_2621 SDH lower order path not loaded occurs, run LST SDHFLAG to check whether the set C2 byte is consistent with that of the transmission device. If occurs, run LST SDHFLAG to check whether the set J1 byte is consistent with that of the transmission device. If ALM_2623 Trace identifier of SDH lower order path mismatching occurs, run LST SDHFLAG to check whether the set J2 byte is consistent with that of the transmission device.

Step 6 Run SET PERMON to enable the performance monitoring function to check whether error codes exist in the transmission channels.

7.5 Debugging SDH Interface Protection


This describes how to debug the synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) interface protection.

Context
NOTE

You must configure the 1+1 backup or 1:N backup of the SDH interface before performing the SDH interface protection.

Procedure
Step 1 Run SET PG to start the protection group controller. Then, run DSP PGSTAT to check the state of the protocol controller. Normally, the initial protocol controller is in the starting state. If you check the state of the protocol controller several seconds later, the controller is in the idle state. When the protocol controller is idle, the output frame No., slot No., and optical interface No. specify the position of the protection channel. Step 2 Check whether the ACT indicator on the master optical interface (work channel) is always on and whether the ACT indicator on the slave optical interface (protection channel) is off.
NOTE

Make sure to check the master indicator (ACT) on the service interface. The ACT indicator on the service interface is orange, and that on the board is green.

Step 3 Pull the optical fiber out of the master optical port, which causes the signal loss. The ACT indicator on the original master optical interface (work channel) is off, and that on the original slave optical interface (protection channel) is on. Step 4 Insert the removed optical fiber. After the recovery time ends, check the traffic recovery. The ACT indicator on the optical interface configured as the work channel is on and that of the optical interface configured as the protection channel is off.
NOTE

You can do the recovery test only when Recover mode is set to Recover by using ADD PG; otherwise, skip this test. Run SET WRTIME to set Recover time length(s) to 600.

Step 5 Check whether the protocol controller is normal with the preceding steps. If the switchover between the channels fails, check whether the peer transmission device runs normally, whether the optical fiber or optical interface is normal, and whether the protection configuration of the local interface is correct.

7 Debugging Interconnection Between the UMG8900 and the BSC/MSC/PSTN Switch

The SDH interface protection requires the cooperation of the peer transmission device. If the channel switchover is abnormal, first check whether the peer transmission device supports switchover protection and runs normally.

Step 6 After the protocol controller runs normally, make dialing tests on the MGC by using a specified trunk and make the call pass the work channel of the S2L. Pull out the optical fiber of the work channel during the call, and check whether the call is disconnected during the channel switchover. ----End

8.1 Debugging IP Interfaces


This describes how to debug the physical layer and link layer of the Ethernet interfaces.

Context
Debugging the IP interfaces is to debug the FE/GE interfaces on the back interface board of the HRB to check whether the lower three layers of the IP interfaces are normal. The lower three layers are the physical layer, data link layer, and network layer. 8.1.1 Debugging Ethernet Interfaces This describes how to debug the physical layer and link layer of the Ethernet interfaces. 8.1.2 Debugging IPoE1 Interfaces This describes how to debug the physical layer and link layer of the IPoE1 interface. 8.1.3 Debugging Network Layer This describes how to debug the network layer of the Internet Protocol (IP) interface.

8.1.1 Debugging Ethernet Interfaces


This describes how to debug the physical layer and link layer of the Ethernet interfaces.

Procedure
Step 1 Check whether the LINK indicator on the fast Ethernet (FE)/gigabit Ethernet (GE) port is on. If the LINK indicator is on, it indicates that the physical layer is connected. If the LINK indicator is off, check whether the state of the boards is OK, whether the network cables and optical fibers of the interfaces are well connected, whether the interconnected device (LAN Switch or router) is powered down, whether network cables fail, and whether the receiving and sending ends of the optical fibers are reversely connected (you can exchange the receiving and sending ends of the local optical fibers). If the loopback test can be made on the optical fibers on the optical distribution frame (ODF), check whether the optical fiber has a problem, use an optical power meter to measure the optical power at the optical interface and the end of the connected optical fiber to check whether the sent and received optical power is normal and whether the received optical power meets the requirement of the sensitivity.
NOTE

Normally, the LINK indicator on the FE interface is green. If the LINK indicator is always on, it indicates that the link is connected. The indicator of the FE interfaces on the ME8T is orange, and it is the LINK and ACT indicator. If the indicator is always on, it indicates that the link is connected. If the indicator flashes, it indicates that data is received and sent.

Step 2 Check the state of the FE/GE interface. Run DSP IPIF to check the state of the FE/GE interface. Normally, the state of the physical layer and data link layer is UP. If the state of the physical layer is UP and that of the data link layer is DOWN, check whether the configurations of the interface rate, duplex mode, and maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the FE/GE interfaces are consistent with those of the interconnected device. If not, run MOD IPIF to modify the configurations. The FE interfaces on the HRB are configured to be 100 M and full-duplex. The GE interfaces on the HRB must

be configured to be 1000 M and full-duplex. If the previously mentioned requirements are not met, packet loss may occur. Step 3 (Optional) If the Trunking interfaces are configured, check whether the configurations of the local Trunking interfaces are correct and whether the convergence configurations of the interconnected switch are consistent with those of the UMG8900. Run DSP IPIF to check the state of the Trunking interfaces and all the FE interfaces in the Trunking interfaces. Normally, the state of the physical layer and link layer is UP. The state of all the FE interfaces in the Trunking interfaces is normal. Step 4 If the virtual local area network (VLAN) is configured, check whether the configurations of the local VLAN are correct and whether the VLAN configurations of the interconnected device (LAN Switch) and remote device (router or MGC) are correct. Run LST IFVLAN to check whether VLAN ID in the output results is correct. If incorrect, run MOD IPIF to modify the configurations.
NOTE

l l l

If the VLAN is configured on the local Ethernet interface, the interfaces of the LAN Switch connected to the interface must be the Trunking interfaces. The VLAN ID of the local Ethernet interface must be consistent with that of the VLAN to which the ports of the interconnected LAN Switch belong; otherwise, the interconnection fails. If the IP addresses bound with the VLAN and the IP addresses not bound with the VLAN are configured on the local Ethernet interfaces, configure the interfaces of the interconnected LAN Switch to be in the mixed mode.

----End

8.1.2 Debugging IPoE1 Interfaces


This describes how to debug the physical layer and link layer of the IPoE1 interface.

Procedure
Step 1 Debug the E1/T1/E3/T3/synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) interfaces to ensure that the transmission lines are connected. For detailed debugging steps, see 7 Debugging Interconnection Between the UMG8900 and the BSC/MSC/PSTN Switch. Step 2 Check whether the settings of the Serial interfaces are correct.
l

The time division multiplexing (TDM) timeslots on which the binding relationship is configured must be the inside timeslots, and no other applications are configured on them. Run LST BIND and LST CHANNEL to check whether the settings of the timeslots in the Serial interface are correct.

Step 3 (Optional) If the Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) or Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) authentication mode is used, check whether the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) authentication of the two sides is consistent. Run LST PPPAUTH to check whether the authentication mode, user name, host name, and password of the UMG8900 are consistent with those of the interconnected router. During interconnection, it is recommended to run MOD IPIF to set Authentication mode to NONE, and then check whether the two sides can be interconnected without authentication to see whether the disconnection of the link layer is related to the PPP authentication.

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

Step 4 (Optional) Check whether the settings of the VT interfaces are correct. The maximum transmission units (MTUs) of the two Serial interfaces in one MP (that is, the two Serial interfaces are configured to one VT interface) must be the same, and the number of the accepted timeslots must be the same. Step 5 Check the state of the IP interfaces. Run DSP IPIF to check the state of the Serial and VT interfaces. The physical layer and link layer must be UP. If the state of the physical layer is UP and that of the link layer is DOWN, check whether the PPP authentication is consistent with that of the interconnected router, and the cyclic redundancy check (CRC) authentication and scramble settings are consistent with those of the peer end. If not, run SET PPPAUTH to modify the settings of the PPP authentication parameters. ----End

8.1.3 Debugging Network Layer


This describes how to debug the network layer of the Internet Protocol (IP) interface.

Context
Debugging the network layer is to check whether the UMG8900 can reach the remote media gateway (MGW). The simplest debugging method is to run PING to ping the remote MGW from the board where the IP bearer interfaces are located. If the response can be received from the remote MGW, it indicates that the network layer is connected. If no response is received from the remote MGW, perform the following steps:

Procedure
Step 1 Check whether the MGW is valid. Run DSP GWADDR to check whether the MGW is valid. If invalid, run LST GWADDR to check whether the gateway address is the same as the actual gateway address. If not, remove the MGW and then configure the MGW again. Step 2 Check whether the IP address of the MGW is correctly parsed. Run DSP ARP to check whether the address resolution item of the gateway exists in the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) mapping table. The system can automatically resolve and refresh the corresponding MAC address of the gateway only when the IP address of the gateway is valid. Step 3 Check whether the network layer between the IP interface and the MGW is connected. Run PING to ping the gateway IP address from the HRB. If the virtual local area network (VLAN) is configured, run PING for different VLANs to ensure the IP addresses in one VLAN can be reachable. The IP addresses in different VLANs cannot be reachable, and in this case disconnect the router. Otherwise, after the IP packets are transferred through routers, the IP addresses in different VLANs can be reachable. Step 4 Check whether the remote MGW is reachable on the gateway connected to the local MGW.
l

Ping the gateway connected to the remote MGW on the gateway connected to the local MGW. If ping succeeds, it indicates the bearer network is normal. If ping fails, run TRACERT on the HRB to locate the IP network fault and clear it.

Step 5 Check whether the network address transmission (NAT) or firewall exists in the network. Check whether the NAT or firewall exists in the network through the network operator and whether they are correctly configured. ----End

Postrequisite
After debugging the IP interfaces, debug the IP bearer.

8.2 Debugging IP Bearer


This describes how to debug the Internet Protocol (IP) bearer.

Context
IP bearer is debugged based on the successfully debugged network layer. Thus, this introduces only the following contents.

Procedure
Step 1 Check the domain ID. Run LST DOMAIN to check whether the domain ID is correct. Observe whether A plane start address and A plane end address in the output results are consistent with those planned. Step 2 Check whether the bearer bandwidth is configured for the IP address. Run LST IPIF to check whether the bearer bandwidth is configured for the IP address of the back board of the HRB.
NOTE

The bearer bandwidth of the Serial interface cannot be more than the maximum bandwidth supported by the interface. The maximum bandwidth of the interface is the number of the timeslots multiplied by 64 kbit/s. The bearer bandwidth of the VT interface cannot be more than the sum of the maximum bandwidth supported by all the Serial interfaces, that is, the number of the timeslots supported by all the Serial interfaces in the VT interface multiplied by 64 kbit/s.

Step 3 Check the bearer capability of the boards. Run LST BEARCAPA to check the bearer capability of the boards. If the bearer capability is 0, it indicates that no bearer capability exists. Step 4 Check the non-bearer reserved port No. Run LST RSVPORT to check whether the non-bearer reserved port Nos. are correct. The nonbearer reserved ports are often used for the centralized forwarding, and they are reserved for the control interfaces. Observe whether Start Port and End Port in the output results are the same as those planned. Step 5 Check the reserved IP termination ID. Run LST RSVIPTID to list the reserved IP termination ID configured. This command is used only when the UMG8900 is interconnected with the softswitch of other vendors and the

softswitch has restrictions on the IP termination ID allocated to the UMG8900. Check whether the value range of the reserved IP termination ID in the command execution result is the same as the planned value range. Step 6 Perform check by making dialing tests. During dialing tests, if abnormality occurs, start the H.248 message trace and IP interface trace to observe the interaction of the message and then locate the fault. ----End

8.3 Debugging IP Interface Protection


This describes how to debug the Internet Protocol (IP) interface protection.

Context
In some networking applications, the UMG8900 must consider the reliability of local IP interfaces. That is, when a fault occurs to the interface between the UMG8900 and a device such as a router, the services can be switched from the faulty master interface to the slave interface quickly. For descriptions and configurations of the IP interface protection, see the HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Configuration GuideConfiguring IP Bearer. Run PING to debug the IP interface protection.

Procedure
Step 1 When both the work channel and protection channel are normal, PING the interconnected router from the HRB board and check the returned messages. At the same time, observe the ACT indicators on the IP interfaces. If an ACT indicator is flashing, it indicates that the corresponding interface is used to send and receive the ping packets. Namely, this interface is in the work channel.
NOTE

For the MHRU, the fast Ethernet (FE) interface, and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) interface automatically support the 1+1 on-off protection (non 1+1 APS protection), ATM interface can support 1+1 APS protection through the protection group configurations. The GE interface supports the 1+1 on-off protection through the protection group configurations. When the orange indicator on the FE/GE interface flashes, it indicates that the links are receiving or sending data.

Step 2 PING the interconnected router from the HRB. During the PING operation, pull the network cable or optical fiber out of the IP interface that is in the work channel. Observe whether there is packet loss and the ACT indicators of the IP interfaces. If an ACT indicator is flashing, it indicates that the corresponding interface is used to send and receive the PING packets. When the work channel fails, the interface in the protection channel should be used to send and receive IP packets and there should be no packet loss. Step 3 (Optional) Insert the network cable or optical fiber of the work channel again. PING the interconnected router from the HRB. Observe the ACT indicators on the IP interfaces to check whether packet loss occurs.

Make this test only when Recover mode is set to recover in ADD PG. Otherwise, skip this test. Recover mode can only be Not recover for the interface in a non-APS protection mode, and thus skip this test if the IP interface adopts a non-APS protection mode. Step 4 Check whether the IP interface protection takes effect by performing the preceding three steps. If the switchover between the channels fails, check whether the interconnected router or transmission device runs normally, whether the network cables, optical fibers, and interfaces are normal, and whether the protection configurations of the local interface are correct. Step 5 After PING succeeds, make dialing tests. During the call, pull out the optical fibers in the work channel, and check whether the call is disconnected during the link switchover. Step 6 For the ATM interface using the 1+1 APS or 1:N APS protection mode, pull the optical fibers out of the interface of the interconnected device, and repeat performing steps 3 to 5. This step is used to test the bidirectional protection of the APS. Thus, if the IP interface uses the non-APS protection mode, skip the step. ----End

8.4 Debugging Route Backup


This describes how to debug the route backup.

Procedure
Step 1 When the master and slave links are normal, ping the interconnected router on the HRB to check whether the PING messages are returned. Run DSP IPIF to check the sending and receiving of the packets on the master and slave interfaces.
NOTE

l l l

For the HRU, only the gigabit Ethernet (GE) interface supports the route backup. Normally, the master Internet Protocol (IP) interface sends packets, and both the master and slave IP interfaces can receive packets. For the HRD, both GE and fast Ethernet (FE) interfaces support the route backup.

Step 2 PING the interconnected router on the HRB. During this process, pull the optical fibers out of the IP interfaces of the master link, and observe whether packet loss occurs. Run DSP IPIF to check the sending and receiving of the packets on the master and slave interfaces. When the master link fails, the slave link is used to receive and send packets and no packet loss occurs. Step 3 Insert the optical fiber of the master link again, and PING the interconnected router on the HRB to check whether the ping messages are returned. Run DSP IPIF to check the sending and receiving of the packets on the master and slave interfaces. When the master link is recovered, the master interface can normally receive and send packets. Step 4 Check whether the route backup takes effect by performing the preceding three steps. If the master and slave links cannot be normally switched over, check whether the configurations of the interconnected router are correct and whether the configurations of the local route backup are correct.

NOTE

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

When the IP addresses of the master and slave interfaces are in different network segments, one route from the gateway interconnected to the slave interface to network segment of the master interface must be guaranteed. When the IP addresses of the master and slave interfaces are in the same network segment and different LANs, ARP deal method must be set to Always.

Step 5 After PING succeeds, make dialing tests. During the call, pull the optical fibers out of the master link and check whether the call is disconnected during the link switchover. ----End

If the state of the M2UA links is UNESTABLISHED, it indicates that the Simple Control Transfer Protocol SCTP links carrying M2UA are not established, and then perform the following:
l

Run LST L2UALNK to check whether Local IP Address, Local port No., Remote IP Address, and Remote port No. of the M2UA links are consistent with those of the MGC. In addition, check whether the work mode of the M2UA links of the UMG8900 is Server, and that of the MGC is Client. Run LST SCTPINIT to check whether the checksum algorithm on the UMG8900 side is consistent with that on the MGC side. The checksum algorithm on the two sides must be consistent; otherwise, the SCTP links cannot be established.

CAUTION
After modifying the SCTP parameters, make sure to restart the SPF to validate the modified parameters. Step 3 Create an M2UA interface trace task. If the state of the M2UA links is INACTIVE, create an M2UA interface trace task on the UMG8900 to locate the fault by checking the tracing messages.
l

Unsupported traffic handling mode Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives AspActive messages from the MGC and returns Error messages indicating the unsupported traffic handling mode, it indicates that the traffic handling mode of the M2UA link sets of the UMG8900 is inconsistent with that of the MGC. Run RMV L2UALKS and ADD L2UALNK to set the mode of the UMG8900 consistent with that of the MGC, which may be master/slave or load sharing.

Invalid interface identifier Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives the AspActive message from the MGC and responses with ERROR indicating the wrong interface ID, it indicates that the interface ID of the MTP2 links of the UMG8900 is inconsistent with that of the MGC. Run RMV MTP2LNK and ADD MTP2LNK to modify the interface ID of the MTP2 links of the UMG8900 consistent with that of the MGC.

Returning ReleaseIndication Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives the EstablishReq message from the MGC and returns the ReleaseIndication message, it indicates that the MPT2 links are not established. Run LST MTP2LNK to check whether the MTP2 links of the UMG8900 and MGC occupy the same timeslot of an E1 cable, and whether the peer MTP2 links are correctly configured. Run DSP SPFSUBRD to check whether the SPF subboard processing the MTP2 links is abnormal.

Receiving no EstablishRequest If the UMG8900 does not receive any EstablishRequest message from the MGC, check the related settings and state of the MGC.

9.2 Debugging MTP3-M3UA Signaling Links


This describes how to debug the MTP3-M3UA signaling links.

Prerequisite
Before you debug the MTP3-M3UA links, complete the debugging of the E1 interfaces and E1 links on the time division multiplexing (TDM) side and network layer on the Internet Protocol (IP) side. For how to debug interfaces, see 7.1 Making E1/T1 Self-Loopback Tests, 7.2 Debugging E1/T1 Links, and 8.1 Debugging IP Interfaces.

Context

and perform Step 3 to debug MTP3 User Adaptation Layer (M3UA). If not, perform Step 2 to debug the MTP3 links. Step 2 Create an MTP3 interface trace task. If the MTP3 links are not established, create an MTP3 interface trace to observe the tracing messages and locate the failure.
l

Among the tracing messages, if the SLTM message is sent and received with no SLTA message responded, it indicates that the layer 3 data of the UMG8900 and the peer device is inconsistent. You can open the SLTM message and check the OPC, DPC, and SLC contained. Check the configurations of the two sides. Ensure that OPC of the peer device is consistent with DPC of the UMG8900, DPC of the peer device is consistent with OPC of the UMG8900, SLC of the MTP3 links on the UMG8900 side is consistent with that on the peer device side, and SLC of the MTP3 link is consistent with the sent SLC. If no tracing message is displayed, it indicates that the MTP3 link that carries MTP3 fails to be established. Check whether the MTP2 links on both sides use the same timeslot of the same E1 or T1 line. If the configurations are correct, check whether the E1 cables used by the MPT2 links have cross pairs. For details, see 7.2 Debugging E1/T1 Links. Run DSP SPFSUBRD to check whether the subboard handling the MTP2 link fails. Check whether the alarm related to the MTP3 links exists in the alarm management system.

l l

Step 3 Check the state of the M3UA links.


NOTE

Before debugging the MTP3-M3UA links, run ACT M3LNK to activate the M3UA links on the UMG8900 and the peer device.

Run DSP M3DLNK to check the state of the M3UA links to the media gateway controller (MGC) destination entity. If the state of the links is ACTIVE, it indicates that the M3UA links are established, and the debugging is complete. If the state of the M3UA links is not ACTIVE, create an interface trace task for debugging. Step 4 Check the M3UA data configurations. If the state of the M3UA links is UNESTABLISHED, it indicates that the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) links carrying M3UA are not established, and then perform the following:
l

Run LST M3LNK to check whether Local IP Address, Local port No., Remote IP Address, and Remote port No. of the M3UA links are consistent with those of the MGC. Check whether the work mode of the M3UA links on the UMG8900 side is Server and that of the M3UA links on the MGC side is Client. Run LST SCTPINIT to check whether the checksum algorithm on the UMG8900 side is consistent with that on the MGC side. The checksum algorithm on the two sides must be consistent; otherwise, the SCTP link cannot be established.

CAUTION
After modifying the SCTP parameters, make sure to restart the SPF to validate the modified parameters.

Step 5 Create an M3UA interface trace task. If the state of the M3UA link is INACTIVE, create an M3UA interface trace task, and observe the tracing message to locate the fault.
l

Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives the ASPAC message from the MGC and responses with ERROR indicating Unsupported traffic handling mode, it indicates that the traffic mode of the M3UA link sets configured on the UMG8900 and the MGC are inconsistent. Run RMV M3LKS and ADD M3LKS to set the work mode of the M3UA links sets of the UMG8900 consistent with that of the MGC, which may be master/slave or load sharing. If the UMG8900 receives the ASPAC message from the MGC and returns the ERROR message indicating invalid context, it indicates that the route context of the M3UA destination entity of the UMG8900 is different from that of the M3UA local destination of the MGC. In this case, change them to the same value.

The embedded SG of the UMG8900 uses the MTP3B-M3UA mode to adapt the RANAP signaling on the radio network controller (RNC) side to the IP packets, and then transfers them to the media gateway controller (MGC).

Procedure
Step 1 Run DSP MTP3BDPC to check whether the state of the destination signaling point (DSP) of the RNC is available.
l

If yes, it indicates that the Message Transfer Part(broadband) (MTP3B) DSP is reachable. Then perform Step 7 to debug the MTP3 User Adaptation Layer (M3UA) link. Otherwise, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Check whether the alarm related to the MTP3B exists in the alarm management system.
l

If yes, clear the alarm, and then run DSP MTP3BDPC to check whether the state of the DSP of the RNC is available.

If the state of the DSP of the RNC is available, it indicates that the MTP3B DSP is reachable. Then perform Step 7. Otherwise, perform Step 3.

If no alarm related to MTP3B exists, perform Step 3.

Step 3 Run LST MTP3BLKS and LST MTP3BLNK to check which Signaling ATM Adaptation Layer (SAAL) link the MTP3B link is carried on. Then, run DSP SAALLNK to check whether the SAAL link is normal.
NOTE

If the SAAL link is normal, the following information is displayed:


l l l l l

LinkStatus = Connected SSCOPState =Data Transfer Ready SSCFState = In Service/Data Transfer Ready

If the SAAL link is normal, perform Step 6. Otherwise, perform Step 4.

Step 4 Run SET PVCOAM to enable the operation, administration, and maintenance (OAM) function of the permanent virtual channel (PVC) carrying the SAAL link, and run DSP ASUSTS to check the cell statistics received by the PVC. If no OAM fault occurs, it indicates that the PVC connection is normal. Step 5 If the SAAL link is abnormal, start the SAAL interface trace task, and check whether any message is sent and received, and whether the received message is correct.
NOTE

When the link is normal, the maintenance messages are exchanged POLL and STAT. The message exchange period is short. The message is SD during link establishment and upper-layer data transfer.

Step 6 Start the MTP3B interface trace task. Check whether any message is sent and received, and whether the received message (especially OPC, DPC, and SLC) is correct. Check whether the configurations between the UMG8900 and the RNC are correct based on the tracing message. Step 7 Start debugging the M3UA link. Run DSP M3LNK to check the state of the M3UA link to the MGC destination entity.

If the link state is ACTIVE, it indicates that the M3UA link is established. The debugging is completed. If the link state is UNESTABLISHED, perform Step 8. If the link state is INACTIVE, perform Step 9.

l l

Step 8 If the state of the M3UA link is UNESTABLISHED, check the following configuration data:
l

Run LST M3LNK to check whether Local IP Address, Local port No., Remote IP Address, and Remote port No. of the M3UA links are consistent with those of the MGC. At the same time, check whether the work mode of the M3UA links of the UMG8900 is Server and that of the MGC is Client. Run LST SCTPINIT to display the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) parameters of the M3UA link, and especially check whether the UMG8900 and MGC adopt the same check algorithm (CRC32 or ADLER32). Different check algorithms result in establishment failure of the SCTP link.

CAUTION
If the SCTP Checksum algorithm parameters are inconsistent, run SET SCTPINIT to modify them. Restart the SPF of the UMG8900 to validate the SCTP parameters. Step 9 If the state of the M3UA links is INACTIVE, create an M3UA interface trace task on the UMG8900 side, and observe the tracing message:
l

Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives the ACTIVE message from the MGC and returns the ERROR message indicating the unsupported traffic handling mode, it indicates that the traffic modes of the M3UA link sets configured on the UMG8900 and the MGC are different. In this case, run RMV M3LKS and ADD M3LKS to set the traffic mode of the M3UA link set to the same as that on the MGC side (Override_Mode or Loadshare_Mode). If the UMG8900 receives the ACTIVE message and returns the ERROR message indicating invalid context, it indicates that the route context of the M3UA destination entity of the UMG8900 is different from that of the M3UA local destination of the MGC. In this case, run MOD M3DE to modify them to the consistent value.

Unsupported traffic handling mode Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives AspActive messages from the MGC and returns Error messages indicating the unsupported traffic handling mode, it indicates that the traffic handling mode of the IUA link sets of the UMG8900 is inconsistent with that of the MGC. Run RMV L2UALKS and ADD L2UALNK to set the mode of the UMG8900 consistent with that of the MGC, which may be master/slave or load sharing.

Invalid interface identifier Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives the AspActive message from the MGC and responses with ERROR indicating the wrong interface ID, it indicates that the interface ID of the Q.921 links of the UMG8900 is inconsistent with that of the PRA links of the MGC. Run RMV Q921LNK and ADD Q921LNK to modify the interface ID of the Q.921 links of the UMG8900 consistent with that of the MGC.

Returning ReleaseIndication Among the tracing messages, if the UMG8900 receives the EstablishReq message from the MGC and returns the ReleaseIndication message, it indicates that the Q.921 links are not established. Run LST Q921LNK to check whether the Q.921 links of the UMG8900 and MGC occupy the same timeslot of an E1 cable. Check whether the settings of Net/User side are correct. Both the Q.921 links on the UMG8900 side and the PRALINK links on the MGC are set to user side or network side at the same time. In addition, if the links at the peer exchange are set to network side, the links of the UMG8900/MGC must be set to user side. It is the same way in the reversed condition. Run DSP SPFSUBRD to check whether the SPF subboard processing the Q.921 links is abnormal.

Receiving no EstablishRequest If the UMG8900 does not receive any EstablishRequest message from the MGC, check the related settings and state of the MGC.

HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Commissioning Guide

9 Debugging Signaling Transfer

Context
The UMG8900 is different from the common channel signaling (CCS) adaptation and transparent transmission and is based on the standard SIGTRAN protocol. Therefore, it processes R2 channel associated signaling (CAS) through exchanging H.248 messages. The UMG8900 adapts detected CAS to H.248 messages and reports them to the media gateway controller (MGC) and meanwhile converts received H.248 messages into CAS. Thus, the UMG8900 implements the CAS interworking between the MGC and the public switched telephone network (PSTN). To debug R2 signaling transfer, first check the configuration scripts and port status related to R2. If the local configurations are correct, analyze R2 and H.248 tracing messages to decide whether the interconnection failure results from faults on the UMG8900, the MGC, or the interconnected PSTN switch.

Procedure
Step 1 Run DSP CFG to check the configuration data of the line signaling and the register signaling. Check whether ADD LSND, ADD LRPT, ADD REGRPT, and ADD REGSND are consistent with the R2 configuration scripts released with the currently used software version.
NOTE

If the pulse signals such as the metering pulse and the digit pulse are used in the line signaling, you must check the setting of ADD PULSE and ADD PCMPLS.

Step 2 Check whether Line signaling conversion index, Line command conversion index, Register signaling conversion index, and Register command conversion index in ADD CASSIGNAL are correctly set. These four parameters are respectively equal to ID in ADD LSND, ADD LRPT, ADD REGRPT, and ADD REGSND. Step 3 Check whether CAS name in ADD CASATTR is consistent with CAS name in ADD CASSIGNAL. Step 4 Run ADD CASATTR to check whether Address send list and Address receive list are set to only Destination Number, Source Number, and Calling Subscriber Category; otherwise, the link cannot be established. Step 5 Run LST TDMIU to check the E1 port occupied by the R2 trunk. Make sure that Relay type of TDM timeslot is R2, and CASATTR No. is the same as ID in ADD CASATTR.
NOTE

If the pulse is used in the signaling, ensure that Pulse No. is the same as PCM pulse index in ADD PCMPLS. If no pulse is used in the signaling, do not set the parameter.

Step 6 Run DSP E1PORT to check the state of the E1 port carrying the R2 signaling according to the port. Normally, the state is OK. If the state of the E1 port is FAULT, ensure that the line impedance matches the trunk line in use. If the line impedance does not match the trunk line, you can set the impedance through setting the DIP switch. For details, see B.2 Board DIP Switches and Jumpers of all SSM Frames.

About This Chapter
Context

Debugging Services

This describes how to debug voice services, supplementary services, MPTY services, and data services.

Debugging services is to debug overall service functions. Before debugging services, make sure that the data configurations are correct and the independent function and interface debugging is complete. The required dialing test tasks and operations vary with different networking applications. In the actual deployment, make dialing tests according to the dialing test cases and operation guides in the HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Acceptance Manual. The most direct and efficient way for service debugging is to make dialing tests, that is, to use a service terminal or a dialing test device to trigger service running and then check whether the whole system can work normally. Make corresponding dialing tests based on different targets. When a call fails during making dialing tests on services, analyze H.248 protocol tracing messages to locate the fault.
NOTE

The MGC is considered as an example in the dialing tests of services related to the MGC.

10.1 Debugging Voice Services


This describes how to debug the voice services of asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) calls.

Procedure
Step 1 Use a user equipment (UE) to make a voice call test, and check the message transfer part (broadband) (MTP3B), Q.AAL2, and UP interfaces. Normally, the signaling connection control part (SCCP) and Q.AAL2 messages are sent and received through the MTP3B interface. The ERQ message is received and the ECF message is sent through the Q.AAL2 interface. The INIT message is sent and received through the UP interface, and the type of the sent INIT messages is ACK.
l l

If the call is normal, perform Step 3. If the Q.AAL2 link setup fails, check the control plane on the transport layer according to 6.4 Debugging Q.AAL2 Links. If the messages on the UP interface are abnormal, perform Step 2.

Step 2 Analyze the tracing messages on the UP interface.


l

If the UMG8900 receives the IuUP initialization message and returns the NACK message, run LST RFCI to check the rate supported by the UMG8900 and whether the RFCI configured on the media gateway (MGW) is less than that of the radio network controller (RNC). If yes, run MOD RFCI to modify the settings of the MGW or decrease the rate supported by the RNC. If the UMG8900 sends the IuUP initialization message and then receives the NACK message, it indicates that the RFCI correction request of the called MGW is rejected by the RNC. In this case, check the rates of the calling and called RNCs. If the UMG8900 fails to receive the IuUP initialization message from the RNC, the bearer permanent virtual channels (PVCs) corresponding to the AAL2 paths configured on the UMG8900 and the RNC are inconsistent, and thus UP packet loss occurs. Run DSP AAL2PATH to check whether the configurations are incorrect. If yes, run RMV AAL2PATH and ADD AAL2PATH to modify the configurations. Run DSP VMGWRSC to display the resource occupation state of the VMGW. The number of ATM resources occupied must be the same as the number of UEs. Run DSP AAL2USER to display the state of online ATM users. The total user number on all ASUs of the Iu interface must be the same as the number of UEs. Run DSP AAL2CH to display the path occupation state. The number of used channels of all paths must be the same as the number of UEs.

Step 3 Hold several calls, and perform the following steps:


l

Step 4 In the case of mass calls setup, run DSP ASUSTS to display call and UP statistics. According to the statistics, determine whether call loss or other faults occur. Here, other faults include the voice quality faults such as one-way audio, no audio, and noise. Step 5 Locate the voice quality faults by performing the inloop, outloop, and segment-by-segment loopback on the specified termination. Step 6 Start the alarm management system, and check whether any alarm related to the ASU occurs during the call.
