ASN Paging Controller Configuration Mode Commands
 
Use the ASN Paging Controller Configuration Mode to create and manage Access Service netowrk (ASN) paging and location register services for WiMAX subscribers within a context.
asnpc-id
Configures the identifier for an ASN paging controller for the subscribers in this service.
Product
ASN PC-LR
Privilege
Administrator
Syntax
asnpc-id mac_address
default asnpc-id
default
Sets the ASN paging controller identifier as the IP address of the system running the ASN paging controller and location registry service.
mac_address
Specifies the MAC address of the system running the ASN paging controller and location registry service.
mac_address is the MAC address of the paging controller in standard (IEEE 802) format – six groups of two hexadecimal digits separated by hyphens (-) or colons (:).
Usage
Use this command to configure the MAC address of the paging controller for the ASN paging controller service.
Example
The following command sets the MAC address of paging controller to 01:23:45:67:89:ab in colon (:) separated format:
asnpc-id 01:23:45:67:89:ab
bind
Binds the ASN paging controller service to a logical IP interface and configures the maximum number of subscribers allowed within a service.

Usage
Use this command to configure the number of seconds for the ASN paging controller services to wait before sending a paging announcement if there is no data communication.
Example
The following command configures the paging announce timeout value of 500 seconds:
paging-announce timeout 500
paging-group
Creates or removes the Paging-Group Identifier within a specific ASN paging controller service.
Product
ASN PC-LR
Privilege
Administrator
Syntax
paging-group id paging_group_id paging node id< mac-addr >addr< ip-addr >[mode {non-legacy | legacy}][ -noconfirm ]
no paging-group id paging_group_id
no
Disables or removes the paging group identifier from a specific ASN paging controller service.
id paging_group_id
Configures the paging group identifier and other parameters within a specific ASN paging controller service.
This is a logical network identifier for the serving BS or other network entity that retains MS service and operational information or administers paging activity for the MS while it is in idle mode
paging_group_idis an integer from 1 through 65535.
-noconfirm
Executes the command without any additional prompt and confirmation from the user.
warning2_smallWarning: If you use this keyword option with no paging-group id paging_group_id command, the paging group id paging_group_id is deleted and disabled with all active or inactive configurations in a paging group. There are no prompts, warning, or confirmations.
Usage
Use this command to enter, enable, or disable the Paging Group Identifier Configuration mode functionality within a specific ASN paging controller service.
note_smallImportant: Configure a maximum of 32 paging groups within a service.
Example
The following command configures the paging group identifier as 1234 for the ASN paging controller service:
paging-group id 1234
peer-asngw
Configures the addresses of trusted anchor ASN-GW peers. These are the peers with which a specified ASN Paging Controller and Location Registry service will allow R4 control and data path registration.
Product
ASN PC-LR
Privilege
Administrator
Syntax
[ no ] peer-asngw address ip_address[id <MAC> | mode [legacy | non-legacy ]]
no
Removes the configured peer anchor ASN GW from a specific ASN PC/LR service’s trusted peer list.
address ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the anchor ASN GW which is added as a trusted peer with the ASN PC/LR service in IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated notation.
Usage
Use this command to create trusted peer anchor ASN GWs with a specific ASN PC/LR service to establish R4 control and data path registration.
There is support for 6-byte ASNPC ID in the source or destination ID TLV, and for the Anchor GW and Authenticator IDs.
On receipt of an idle mode entry request message, the ASN PC/LR service checks the anchor DPF/authenticator. If the Anchor DPF/Authenticator ASN GW address received in the idle mode entry request message is not there, (or not configured in the peer list), the ASN PC/LR service sends the idle mode entry response message with a Failure Indication TLV with an unspecified error code.
Configure a maximum of 32 ASN GWs with this command.
Example
The following command adds the anchor ASN GW with an IP address of 10.2.3.4 as a trusted peer within an ASN PC service.
peer-asngw address 10.2.3.4
peer-asnpc
Configures the peer Anchor Paging Controller(s) in this ASN PC/LR service.
Product
ASN PC-LR
Privilege
Administrator
Syntax
[ no ] peer-asnpc [ id < mac_address> ip-address < ip_address > ]
no
Removes the configured peer ASN PC/LR MAC address and IP address as the trusted peer anchor ASN PC/LR.
id mac_address
Specifies the MAC address of the trusted peer system running the ASN paging controller and location registry service.
mac_address is the 6-byte MAC address of the paging controller (trusted R4 ASNGW peer) in standard (IEEE 802) format in six groups of two hexadecimal digits, separated by hyphens (-) or colons (:).
ip-address ip_address
Specifies the IP address of the trusted peer system running the ASN paging controller and location registry service in IPv4 dotted-decimal notation.
Usage
Use this command to configure the trusted peer anchor paging controller for ASN paging controller service. This command provides the input for the internal mapping from PC ID to IP address that is needed to forward the Location Update request from an Anchor PC to the current Anchor PC during PC relocation.
Example
The following command sets the peer AS NPC id to 01:23:45:67:89:ab in colon (:) separated format and the IP address of the paging controller to 1.1.1.1:
peer-asnpc id 01:23:45:67:89:ab ip-address 1.1.1.1
policy overload
Configures traffic overload policy to control congestion in this service.
Product
ASN PC-LR
Privilege
Administrator
Syntax
policy overload { drop | reject }
default policy overload
default
Sets the traffic overload policy action to reject in this service.
drop
Specifies that the system is to drop incoming packets containing new session requests. Default: disabled
reject
Specifies that the system processes new session request messages and responds with a reject message. Default: enabled
Usage
Configure congestion policies at the service-level. When congestion control functionality is enabled at the service level, these policies dictate how services respond should the system detect that a congestion condition threshold has been crossed.
Example
The following command configures an overload policy of reject for this ASN PC service:
policy overload reject
retransmission-timeout
Configures the amount of time that must pass before the system re-attempts to send R6 control packets to the BS.
Product
ASN PC-LR
Privilege
Administrator
Syntax
retransmission-timeout < duration >
[ no | default ] retransmission-timeout
default
Sets the timeout duration to 3 seconds for retransmission of R6 control packets.
no
Disables or removes the configured timeout duration for retransmission of R6 control packets.
duration
Specifies the maximum time (in seconds) for the ASN paging controller service to wait for a response from the BS before it a) attempts to communicate with the BS again (if the system is configured to retry the BS), or b) marks the BS as unreachable.
duration is an integer from 1 through 1000. Default: 3
Usage
Use this command in conjunction with the max-retransmission command to configure the ASN paging controller services behavior when it does not receive a response from a particular BS.
Use the no retransmission-timeout command to delete a previously configured timeout value. If, after deleting the lifetime setting you desire to return the lifetime parameter to its default setting, use the default retransmission-timeout command.
The chassis is shipped from the factory with the retransmission timeout set to 3 seconds.
Example
The following command configures a retransmission timeout value of 5 seconds:
retransmission-timeout 5
The following command deletes a previously configured retransmission-timeout setting:
setup-timeout
Configures the amount of time for the ASN paging controller service to set up a connection with the BS before it marks the BS as unreachable.
Product
ASN PC-LR
Privilege
Administrator
Syntax
setup-timeout duration
default setup-timeout
default
Sets the timeout to 60 seconds to set up a connection with BS.
duration
Specifies the maximum allowable time (in seconds) for the ASN paging controller service to set up the R6 connection with BS before it marks the BS as unreachable.
duration is an integer between 1 and 100000. Default: 60
Usage
Use this command to configure the maximum timeout duration to setup an R6 connection with BS. This command supersedes the duration set through the max-retransmission and retransmission-timeout commands for R6 connection.
Example
The following command configures an ASN paging controller service to mark a BS after waiting for 100 seconds before it marks it as unreachable:
setup-timeout 100
