Logical eNode Configuration Mode Commands

Important:

In Release 20.0, HeNBGW is not supported. Commands in this configuration mode must not be used in Release 20.0. For more information, contact your Cisco account representative.

The Logical eNodeB configuration option enables the configuration of one or more logical eNodeBs within the HeNB-GW. The Logical eNodeB configuration can be used to support load balancing within a pool of TAIs.

Mode

Exec > Global Configuration > Context Configuration > HENBGW-NETWORK Service Configuration > Logical eNodeB Configuration

configure > context context_name > henbgw-network-service service_name > logical-enb global-enb-id plmn id mcc mcc_id mnc mnc_id { home-enb-id henb_id | macro-enb-id menb_id }

Entering the above command sequence results in the following prompt: 

[context_name]host_name(logical-enb)#
Important:

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

Syntax

Syntax Description

associate mme-pool pool_name
no associate mme-pool

no

Removes the associated MME pool from this logical eNodeB configuration.

pool_name

Identifies the name of the pre-configured MME pool to associate with this logical eNodeB.

pool_name is an alphanumeric string of 1 through 63 characters.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to bind/associate a pre-configured MME pool to the this logical eNodeB. The MME pool can be configured in LTE Policy configuration mode. The associate configuration is used to establish associations with other helper services in general.

Each logical eNodeB can connect up to 8 MMEs. Since 8 logical eNodeBs can be configured per HeNB-GW Network service, a total of 64 associations can be established between HeNB-GW and MME.

Examples

Following command associates an MME pool named mme_pool with specific logical eNodeB: 
associate mme-pool mme_pool

associate tai-list-db

Associates a previously configured TAI database name to this logical eNodeB. A TAI database name for TAI configuration must be configured in LTE Policy Configuration mode before using this configuration.

[context_name]host_name(logical-enb)#

Syntax

Syntax Description

associate tai-list-db tai_db_name
no associate tai-list-db

no

Removes the associated TAI database from this logical eNodeB configuration.

tai_db_name

Identifies the name of the pre-configured TAI database to associate with this logical eNodeB.

tai_db_name is an alphanumeric string of 1 through 63 characters.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to bind/associate a pre-configured TAI database to the this logical eNodeB. The MME pool can be configured in LTE Policy configuration mode. The associate configuration is used to establish associations with other helper services in general.

A maximum number of 8 TAI databases are supported. Each TAI database can accommodate up to 256 configurations of Tracking Area Codes (TACs). Therefore a total of 2048 TACs are supported.

Examples

Following command associates a TAI database named henb_tai_db with specific logical eNodeB: 
associate tai-list-db henb_tai_db

bind s1-mme

Binds the pre configured Local SCTP IP Address for S1 association to MME.

Syntax

Syntax Description

bind s1-mme { ipv4-address  | ipv6-address  }ip_addr
no bind s1-mme

no

Removes the binding of S1-MME interface from this logical eNodeB configuration.

ip_addr

Identifies the IP address of the S1-MME interface to associate with this HeNB-GW Network service.

addr_val must be entered in the IPv4 ( dotted decimal notation) or IPv6 (: / :: notation) .

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to bind the pre configured IPv4 / IPv6 address of the S1-MME interface to the logical eNodeB.

Examples

Following command binds the S1-MME interface having 192:168:100:101IP address with specific logical eNodeB. 
bind s1-mme ipv6-address 192:168:100:101

Usage Guidelines

DSCP levels can be assigned to specific traffic patterns to ensure that data packets are delivered according to the precedence with which they are tagged. The diffserv markings are applied to the IP header of every subscriber data packet transmitted over the S1-MME interface(s).

Examples

The following command sets the DSCP-level for data traffic sent over the S1-MME interface to af12: 
s1-mme ip qos-dscp af12
