RNC Configuration Mode Commands

The RNC (radio network controller) configuration mode defines the parameters related to the SGSN connection with an RNC.

This mode is accessed from the IuPS Service configuration mode and the command prompt for this mode will appear similar to:
[<context_name>]hostname(config-ctx-iups-service-rnc)#

IMPORTANT:

The commands or keywords/variables that are available are dependent on platform type, product version, and installed license(s).

Platform:

ASR 5000

Product:

SGSN


Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator


Syntax 
direct-tunnel not-permitted-by-rncdefault direct-tunnel
default

Sets the direct tunnel support on RNC to default mode; i.e. enabling direct tunnel.

not-permitted-by-rnc

Default: enabled

Disables the direct-tunnel support on radio network controller (RNC).

Use this command to disable/enable the direct-tunnel function through the interface to the RNC.


Example:
Following command disables the direct tunnel support to the RNC:
direct-tunnel not-permitted-by-rnc
dual-address-pdp

This command enables the SGSN to work with an RNC with functioning dual address (IPv4v6) bearer support capability. By default, it is assumed that the RNC does not support dual PDP-type addressing.

Platform:

ASR 5000

Product:

SGSN


Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator


Syntax 
dual-address-pdp { not-supported | 
supported }default dual-address-pdp
default

Resets the SGSN to function with an RNC that is not supporting dual PDP addressing.

not-supported

Default

Enables the SGSN to work with an RNC that does not support dual PDP-type addressing. It allows a single address bearer PDP-type to be activated with a configured PDP-type.

supported

Enables the SGSN to work with an RNC that does support dual PDP-type addressing.


Usage:

This command enables the SGSN to support dual PDP-type addressing (IPv4v6) per RNC.

For a dual PDP context to be activated, the RNC should support the PDP-type IPv4v6 in the RAB assignment request. For an RNC that does support the dual PDP-type addressing, use this command to change the default configuration and to configure the SGSN to work with the RNC's dual address bearer support capability.

If the RNC does not support this functionality, then the default form of this command should be configured to enable the SGSN to activate a single-address bearer PDP context even if (1) the UE requests PDP type IPv4v6 and if (2) the subscription allows this PDP type. The single address bearer PDP type will be activated with a configured PDP type.

When a UE moves from an RNC that supports dual PDP-type addressing to another RNC that does not support dual PDP-type addressing, then the SGSN will deactivate the PDP context. This is done because, even if we preserve the PDP contexts, the UE would be unaware of the preserved PDP context. This would lead to non-synchronized behavior in the network. So the SGSN deactivates the PDP context with cause code "reactivation-required" to ensure the UE, RNC, SGSN, and GGSN are in synch. As well, this gives the UE the opportunity to activate a PDP context again without dual bearers.

The sgsn-rnc-no-dual-pdp-init-pdp-deact disconnect reason is used to indicate that a PDP context has been deactivated because of roaming into an RNC that does not support this feature.

IMPORTANT:

For this configuration to function, support for dual PDP-type addressing must be enabled at the global level (the default). To confirm the functionality is enabled, issue the show sgsn-mode command from the Exec mode. If the PDP-type addressing is not enabled, then refer to the instructions for the dual-address-pdp command in the SGSN Global Configuration Mode Commands section.


Example:
Use the following command to enable dual PDP-type addressing with a supporting RNC:
dual-address-pdp  supported
enb-direct-data-forward

Selects the setup of indirect data forwarding tunnels (IDFT) between the eNodeB and the RNC via the SGW during SRNS relocation, or, selects the use of direct data forwarding.

Product:

SGSN


Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator


Syntax 
[no] enb-direct-data-forward
[ no ]

Disables direct data forwarding and enables the setup of indirect data forwarding tunnels between the eNodeB and the RNC via the SGW during SRNS relocation. This allows the S4-SGSN to support connected mode handovers between the UTRAN and E-UTRAN networks across the S3 interface. This is the default setting.

enb-direct-data-forward

Enables the use of direct data forwarding between the eNodeB and the RNC via the SGW. If this setting is configured and the SGSN receives a Relocation Required message from this RNC for a subscriber with target node as an eNodeB, then the SGSN will set the indication->DFI (direct forwarding indicator) flag in the Forward Relocation Request message sent across the S3 interface. Use of this command disables the setup of indirect data forwarding tunnels.


Usage:

Use this command to enable the setup of direct data forwarding tunnels between the eNodeB and the RNC during inter RAT connected mode handover. Enabling direct data forwarding tunnels allows the S4-SGSN to support connected mode handovers between the UTRAN and E-UTRAN networks across the S3 interface without the use of indirect data forwarding tunnels through SGW. Once direct data forwarding is enabled, indirect data forwarding is automatically disabled.


Example:
Enable the setup of indirect data forwarding tunnels between the eNodeB and RNC via the SGW during SRNS relocation. This command also disables direct data forwarding.

symmetric-bidirectional force-asymmetric-bidirectionaldefault rab-asymmetry-indicator
default | no

Disables the override and sets the indicator based on the symmetry of the bitrates as described for the Default Functionality below.


Usage:

This command defines an override that uses “Asymmetric-Bidirecitonal” as the RAB Asymmetry Indicator when uplink/downlink bitrates are equal (default functionality item #1). This overrides the default functionality (see below) for the RAB indicator in the RAB Assignment Request.

As a result of using this override command, two sets of bitrates, one for downlink and one for uplink, will be included in RAB Assignment Requests for establish or modify per 3GPP TS 25.413.

Default Functionality: The SGSN sets the value of the RAB Asymmetry Indicator based on symmetry of negotiated maximum bitrates in the following manner:

  • If the uplink and downlink bitrates are equal, then it is set to “Symmetric-Bidirectional”.
  • If uplink bitrate is set to 0 kbps, then it is set to “Asymmetric-Unidirectional-Downlink”.
  • If downlink bitrate is set to 0 kbps, then it is set to “Asymmetric-Unidirectional-Uplink”.
  • If the uplink and downlink bitrates are non-zero and different, then it is set to “Asymmetric-Bidirectional”.

Example

Example
Override the use of the “Symmetric-Bidirectional” RAB Asymmetry Indicator for equal up/downlink bitrates with the following command:

default ranap signalling-indication-ie
no

Sets the configuration so that the SGSN never includes the IE.

default

Resets the configuration to the default - the SGSN includes the IE in the messages if preconditions are met (see Usage section).

rab-assignment-request | relocation-request

Including one or both of these keywords configures what type of RANAP message will include the IE.


Usage:

The command enables the operator to determine whether the signalling indication information element is included in either or both the RAB Assignment Request and Relocation Request messages during the PDP context setup procedure.

For this command configuration to work so that the IE is included, two preconditions must be met:
  • Received QoS traffic class for the context must be interactive
  • Received QoS has a signalling indication value as optimized

When an RNC receives this IE, the RNC assumes that the customer is using IMS signaling and allocates massive amounts of bandwidth, potentially causing cell congestion. This command enables the operator to determine the usage of this IE which provides the operator with additional session management control.

Example

Example
Use the following command to include the signalling indication IE in the RAB Assignment Request:
ranap signalling-indication-ie rab-assignment-request
ran-information-management

Use this command to inform the SGSN which RNC are capable of handling RAN information management (RIM) messages.

Platform:

Product:

SGSN


Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator


Syntax 
[ default | no ] ran-information-management
default

Resets the default so RIM is disabled.

no

Disables the RIM support in the configuration file.


Usage:

By default, handling of RAN information management (RIM) messages is disabled. This command informs the SGSN which RNC are capable of handling RIM messages. This configuration only becomes ‘operational’ if the ran-information-management command is enabled in the SGSN global configuration mode.

When RIM support is enabled on both the SGSN and the destination node, then all RIM PDUs are forwarded to the BSC/RNC. If RIM message handling is not enabled on both nodes, then the RIM PDUs are dropped silently.


Example:
Use the following command to enable RIM support: 
ran-information-management
Use the following command to disable RIM support that has been added to the configuration:
no ran-information-management

Use this command to match the 3GPP release support by the RNC. As the 3GPP releases each support differing data rate options - R6 supports HSPA and R7 supports HSPA+ - then selecting the compliance is a method of preforming data rate management on a per RNC basis.

Also use this command to set QoS capping overrides for each RNC separately. Default caps for Release 7 RNC will vary depending upon which overrides are set.

IMPORTANT:

Once caps are set for an RNC, if the RNC release level changes the capping remains the same until the QoS override values are changed for that RNC. Values do not automatically change to the default values appropriate for that release .

Example

Example
Enable HSPA fallback to R6 compliance:
release-compliance pre-release-7
reset-resource

This command enables the operator to control message length by configuring the number of IuConIDs sent in each RANAP Reset Resource messages.

Platform:

ASR 5000

Product:

SGSN


Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator


Syntax 
reset-resource max-iuconid-per-msg numberdefault reset-resource
max-iuconid-per-msg
default

Resets the number of Iu connection Ids included in the Reset Resource messages. Default is 250.

max-iuconid-per-msg number

Sets the number of Iu connection Ids to be included in the Reset Resource messages.

number: Integer from 1 to 250.

Default: 250


Usage:

Id numbers for each Iu connection are included in the RANAP Reset Resource messages. Including this potentially long stream of numbers can make the message very long. With this command, the operator can control the size of the messages by controlling the number of Id messages included in the messages.

Example

Example
Limit the number of Iu connection IDs to 30:
reset-resource max-iuconid-per-msg 30
