BCR4.3.2 Release Notes
1 Use Cases
This document provides the details of some important use cases for the features
supported in this release
1.1 Scenario 1: How to test BSRData XML File download for Security
Hardening
Pre-requisite:
1. CLI, OAM and BSG should be running and ItfBsg is up.
2. OAM_PreConfig.xsd’ should be available in /opt/bsrdata directory since the
schema used by BSR Data XML file downloaded from FMS is
OAM_PreConfig.xsd.
1) Set the SFTP Server IP in ‘actBSRDataBsgBsrInfoRepository’ attribute of FGW
class through FGW CLI.
2) Set the BsrData XML file path on the SFTP server in
‘actBSRDataBsgBsrInformationFile’ attribute of FGW class through FGW CLI.
3) Initiate the action command ‘actBSRData’ by setting its value to ‘True’ through
FGW CLI
4) OAM should download the file to /opt/bsrdata directory and send the
downloaded file path to BSG.
5) BSG should parse and perform minimal validation of the downloaded BSR Data
file.
6) On successful parsing and validation of BSR Data file, BSG should populate the
BSR data to its internal data structures and create
‘OAM_BsrDataPersistentDB.xml’ file for persistence in /opt/bsrdata directory.
7) On response from BSG to OAM, OAM should delete the downloaded BSR data
file from /opt/bsrdata directory.
8) Parsing status of BSR data file can be checked in the
/opt/log/FMG/Log_FMG.log
9) Verification of downloaded file can also be done by evaluating the differences of
the downloaded BSR Data file and persistent ‘OAM_BsrDataPersistentDB.xml’.
1.1.1 Scenario 1.1: BSR record supporting Enterprise list should refer only an
existing Enterprise List
1. BSR record supporting Enterprise list should refer a existing Enterprise List

Alcatel-Lucent - Proprietary 10
BCR4.3.2 Release Notes
2. The option list that are passed as command line argument to the bsgsavestate
script are as below
-l => save log files, configuration data & system information
-c => save any core files present on system
-p => Generate pstacks for running processes
-g => Generate core files for running processes - run when processes
found in Stuck State. While giving –g as option, it may interrupt running processes
for short time.
-s <timestamp> => saves only files touched since <timestamp>
-e <timestamp> => saves only files touched before <timestamp>
Use both start and end timestamps to specify a range, e.g.:
bsgsavestate -s <start> -e <end> [-lcpg]
Examples of valid timestamps:
"03/22/2010 12:00"
"03/22/2010"
Note that if the time is omitted as in the third example above, it will default to
00:00:00. This means that if you want logs for only March 22, you must use the
following:
bsgsavestate -s "03/22/2010" -e "03/23/2010" –l
Example to capture logs and core files between 10am March 22 to 11:30am
March 22:
bsgsavestate -s "03/22/2010 10:00" -e "03/22/2010 11:30" –lc
Example to capture all logs and core files and generate pstacks
bsgsavestate –lcp.
Example to capture backup logs from /opt/log/appLogsBckp
bsgsavestate -s "03/22/2010" -e "03/23/2010" -l
Note that to capture backup logs, startdate and enddate must be specified. Also if you
provided same startdate and enddate, backup logs will not be captured.

BCR4.3.2 Release Notes
Set the enableBSRServiceMonitoring flag to True via CLI for enabling the
smallcells feature.
After this flag is enabled, the bsrRegisterAfterInitTimer is started.
When the time out event of the bsrRegisterAfterInitTimer happens, the number
of unregistered Bsrs is verified.
If the number of unregistered Bsrs is less than maxNumServiceAlarms, then
the bsrOutOfService alarm is raised for every unregistered BSR.
If the number of unregistered Bsrs is equal to the maxNumServiceAlarms, then
the massBsrOutOfService alarm is raised.
If the number of unregistered Bsrs is greater than maxNumServiceAlarms, then
an error is logged.
Verify if the respective alarm is raised in the trapd.

To create an Iu Interface
BSG provides connectivity from BSR cluster to multiple core network nodes which are
created using the below command.
During call origination if IuFlex is activated and the IDNNS Type received from BSR is
other than 1 and 2, Global CN id from BSR is compared with the ‘globalCnIdCnid’
attribute available in Iu class to select the core network node.
Support for configuring multiple routing context for an Iu is available, receive (local)
routing context and send (remote) routing context can be configured using the attributes
routingContext (for receive routing context) and routingContextRemote (for send routing
context) available in IuCS and IuPS MOs.

For SIGTRAN based MSCs, interface reference can have the following values
For SIGTRAN based SGSNs, interface reference can have the following values
For ATM based MSCs/SGSNs, interface reference can have the following values
interfaceReference="FGW=10001,ServerHardware=1,PhysicalInterfaceS=16" – This

1.20 Scenario 20: Making use of an IPSP to support multiple network traffic
1.21 Scenario 20: Making use of an IPSP to support multiple network traffic
The nwkAppIncl flag, nwkAppForITU, nwkAppForANSI5Bit, nwkAppForANSI8Bit
parameters are required to make an IPSP operational in multiple families.
The nwkAppForITU, nwkAppForANSI5Bit, nwkAppForANSI8Bit values should be modified
through CLI only when IPSP is not referenced in any Iu’s created under the respective
networks. For eg:- The nwkAppForITU can be set only when the IPSP is not referenced
in any ITU Iu. The nwkAppForANSI5Bit, nwkAppForANSI8Bit can be set only when the
IPSP is not referenced in any ANSI Iu.
If the attribute aNSISlsLength of M3UA class value is Sls5, ANSI Iu will use the
nwkAppForANSI5Bit value as network appearance.
If the attribute aNSISlsLength of M3UA class value is Sls8, ANSI Iu will use the
nwkAppForANSI8Bit value as network appearance.
Case 1:
If an IPSP is not referenced in any Iu and the IPSP is going to support two different
families, then nwkAppIncl flag can be set to True.
Network appearance value is taken from the following,
If the family is ITU, then the value will be taken from nwkAppForITU.
If the family is ANSI, then the value will be taken from either
nwkAppForANSI5Bit or nwkAppForANSI8Bit depends on the
aNSISlsLength of M3UA class.
For example, IPSP:1 is going to support one ITU and ANSI family Iu’s using the following
commands,
cd /FGW:10001/BSG:1/M3UA:1/IPSP:1;
set {nwkAppIncl=True};
Create one ITU CS/PS Iu.
Create one ANSI CS/PS Iu.
Case 2:
If an IPSP is already referenced in an Iu and the IPSP is going to support two different
families, then nwkAppIncl flag is set to True.
If the currently supported family is ITU and it is going to support ANSI
family then the network appearance value will be taken from either
nwkAppForANSI5Bit or nwkAppForANSI8Bit depends on the
aNSISlsLength of M3UA class.
If the currently supported family is ANSI and it is going to support ITU
family then the network appearance value will be taken from
nwkAppForITU.
For example, IPSP:1 is supporting ITU family and is going to support ANSI family Iu’s
using the following commands,
Alcatel-Lucent - Proprietary 29
BCR24_Phase0 Release Notes
Case 3:
The NwkAppIncl flag can be set from True to false in following conditions,
If the IPSP is referenced in only one family (ITU/ANSI) Iu
If the IPSP is already referenced in multiple family Ius, then the Iu(s)
belonging to one family must be deleted for operating that IPSP
without network appearance attribute.
For example, IPSP:1 is referenced in ITU and ANSI family Ius. Now the IPSP:1 is used to
reference to only ANSI family using the following commands,
Note:
1. NetworkAppIncl flag state change as follows,
As per the double exchange behaviour, specified by both the M3UA RFCs(3332 ,
4666), a link can be taken down (or deleted) only when it’s made INACTIVE from
both the directions. So, to ensure that Iu link is deleted completely, operator must
ensure its deleted at both ends (BSG and IPC/CN) or delete the corresponding SCTP
Association at FGW side. In case if an Iu link is deleted only at one end and the
corresponding SCTP Association is not deleted, then operator should not try to add
that link again as it’s not completely deleted. If an attempt is made to add a link that
is not completely deleted, then it would result in error.

Enabling/Disabling ThreadMon
The processes that are monitored will have section named same as that of process
name. To disable a specific process from being monitored, the attribute SkipMonitoring
is to be set to true.
If the SkipMonitoring attribute is set as false or if the attribute itself is not present, the
process will be added to list of monitored processes (if EnableTM is also true at global
level).
Each process listed under [Monitored-processes] section will have two more sections.
One section is same as that of the process name itself and another section with name
<processname>-Threads.
E.g
Process BSG listed under [Monitored-Processes] will have two more sections namely
[BSG] and [BSG-Threads].
Alcatel-Lucent - Proprietary 52
BCR24_Phase0 Release Notes
The [BSG] section will have configuration details for heartbeat sent by FGWMon to BSG
process.
The [BSG-Threads] section will have configuration details of individual threads of BSG
process. The heartbeat pings are exchanged between the monitoring thread within the
BSG process and other monitored threads configured under this section.
The individual thread entries generally have three entries: ThreadName, Heartbeat
interval and Heartbeat response guard timer.
The heartbeat interval attribute has value in seconds. Once in every configured seconds,
a heartbeat request is sent by monitoring thread to the monitored thread and expects
the response within the heartbeat guard timer (unit in seconds).
If the heartbeat response is not received by monitor thread within the guard timer value,
the thread is considered to be dead and the process is restarted.
Entries made under these two sections should have corresponding code changes in FGW.
The existing entries can be commented to move it out of thread monitoring purview but
new entries cannot be made by end-user.
The ShelfOAM process only runs on ATCA platform. This process will not run in Sun
platform.
In Sun platform, the SkipMonitoring attribute under [SHELFOAM] section should always
be set as false.

1. Paging will be forwarded based on the Paging Area List and Candidate Paging list.
2. Paging Area List is formed by the list of LACs/LACRACs for CS/PS domains
respectively.
3. The creation of Paging Area List depends on the presence of Region and
LACs/LACRACs associated with the Region to which Iu interface is mapped.
4. Candidate Paging list is formed by the presence of IMSI in ACL of registered BSR
whose LAC/LACRAC is in Paging Area List.
5. Candidate Paging list includes BSR which has its LAC/LACRAC in Paging Area List
and IMSI in paging message was registered through this BSR, (ie. Available in
IMSI Directory).
6. Candidate Paging list includes BSRs which belong to same group of BSR which
was selected based on Step 5.

3. If PagingAreaId is found to be SuperLAC, all the LACs associated with the region
for Iu Interface will be selected for Paging Area List.
4. As per above stated example, if Paging Area ID in Paging message is 65010, LACs
65029 & 65030 should be selected for Paging Area List.
5. Further based on the IMSI availability in ACL table and IMSI directory, the
associated BSR’s LAC should match the LAC in the Paging Area List for paging to
be forwarded to appropriate BSR.
2. When Paging message is received with PagingAreaId, the PagingAreaId will not be
considered as SuperLAC if the region to which Iu is associated is configured with
SuperLAC value different from the PagingAreaId.
4. Paging Area List will be formed by the Paging Area ID received from the Paging
message. (ie. As per Step 3, BSRs of LAC 65020 will be selected for Paging Area list)

As part of MR2295 implementation, CPU utilization should be monitored and raise CPU
overload alarm incase CPU utilization crosses minimum/Maximum threshold limit.
MR2295 has impact on both BSG and BTG. BSG monitors set of core which has affinity to
BSG application and BTG monitors set of core which has affinity to BTG application..
Due to unavailability of Alarms in the MIM, BSG and BTG will not be able to raise alarm to
WMS. Instead application will dump the following statement in the log files.

Note: All the values can be configured through BSGCLI except for
“perCoreCpuNotificationLimit”. Due to unavailability of this attribute
“perCoreCpuNotificationLimit” in the MIM, it is temporarily maintained in
FGWMon_PreConfig.xml file and it is set to 90 by default.

In some problematic cases, this tool will block leading to 100% CPU usage.
How to detect
1. Run top command to check the CPU usage.
Workarounds to solve the problem
1. Unplug the power cables of SUN Netra X4250, after 5mins(or until the system got
cooled) re-plug the cables and start the server.
2. Using iLOM connection, restart the IPMI service.
As it is not advisable to use AAA Debug Console during load run, a parameter
AAA_QUERY_VPNIP_ALL_SECGW is introduced in AAA_config.ini. By setting it to
True, option “All VPN IP from all SECGW” is enabled in AAA Debug Console to query
from AAA. By setting to False, the option will be disabled. To enable the option, set True
to AAA_QUERY_VPNIP_ALL_SECGW in AAA_config.ini and open the AAA Debug Console.
Once the console is opened, the value of AAA_QUERY_VPNIP_ALL_SECGW will be reset
to False in the AAA_config.ini file.

If operator wants to commission the ATCA shelf from n to n+1 (BCR3.0/BCR4.0 to BCR4.3)
to support 163819 (RTM port bundling) feature specific Trunk configuration then operator
can use below procedure to commission the shelf.
1) Do stopbsg on both the nodes.
2) Configure the Trunks by executing configTrunkIntoMalban.pl script by passing
default.alcatel.cfg file and the number of trunks to be configured in MALBAN-B.
Script example as below:
a. ./configTrunkIntoMalban.pl default.alcatel.cfg <number of trunks>
b. It will generate default.alcatel.cfg_new file.
c. cp default.alcatel.cfg_new /usr/board/config/.default.alcatel.cfg in MALBAN-B
3) Reboot the MALBAN-B by issuing “reboot” command from the command prompt
4) Once the MALBAN-B is up, do “telnet 0 2000”.
5) Check the trunks are configured properly on MALBAN-B by executing “trunk show”
command on expander console.

Below is the procedure to be taken care while doing multiple HOT SWAPS of the Shelf
Manager.
HOT SWAP test mainly depends on the hardware behavior and detection mechanisms
where application doesn’t play any role. The application just receives the details from the
intermediate library openHPI.
Performing continuous multiple HOT SWAP without much time intervals may lead to an
intermediate state where sometimes the inventory details could not be fetched (as a
result of corruption of the openHPI library which helps in fetching the inventory details) /
incomplete inventory details may be fetched/ successful details based on timing and
detection.
On grace pull out of SHMC on Node A (Active), the peer Node B becomes active.
