Powerful Network Management

Centralized management of large-sized networks requires high system performance. In
addition, today's market demand focuses on hardware reuse and smooth expansion.
To meet the demand, the M2000 provides the multi-server load-sharing (SLS) system based
on the Sun platform and the cluster solution based on the ATAE platform. This implements the
smooth expansion of networks. During network expansion, users can enhance the
management capability of the M2000 by adding a server in the SLS system or adding a
service blade in the ATAE cluster system. This protects telecom operator's hardware
investments and reduces network deployment costs.
Efficient and Intelligent Functions Help Reduce OPEX

The configuration management express (CME), a radio configuration solution, provides
powerful functions through wizards, templates, and GUIs. It enables users to plan
configuration items, check the data of the entire network, and compare the configuration data
of cells with that of the baseline cell. This facilitates data configuration of the entire radio
access network. The CME enables users to create sites in batches remotely, expand network
capacity quickly, optimize a network efficiently, and reparent base stations easily. This
improves the configuration efficiency and accuracy.
The iSStar enhancement maintenance platform enables OM engineers to customize the
service process by editing programs. Thus, the M2000 can automatically handle OM tasks in
batches.
In addition, the M2000 provides a series of featured functions, including the network health
check, remote upgrade and batch upgrade of NEs, automatic planning of base stations,
automatic optimization of neighboring cell relationships, remote commissioning of base
stations, device panel, maintenance-mode alarm setting, and RAN sharing management.
These functions greatly improve the working efficiency of OM engineers and thus reduce the
total cost of operation (TCO).

Page 11 of 46
File interface
The M2000 saves alarm data, performance data, configuration data, and LTE tracing data
as .txt files. Through the file interface, the NMS obtains and processes these files. The
performance file interface supports multi-NMS access and northbound user management.
Performance files are stored on a per telecom operator basis.
The NMS can use the configuration file interface to obtain configuration data from the
M2000. In addition, after the CME is installed, the configuration file interface can be
used to integrate the data planning tools of telecom operators into the M2000. Therefore,
data planning, modification, and activation are automatically performed through the
configuration file interface. The configuration file interface is applicable to OM
scenarios such as site creation, site relocation, network parameter optimization, and
optimization of neighboring cell relationships.
Alarm streaming interface

The M2000 forwards processed NE alarms to the NMS in the form of character stream.

Web-Based Client Access

The M2000 provides the Citrix access solution, which enables users to log in to the M2000
client and perform routine OM operations through a web browser on a PC with low
configurations.
In the Citrix access solution, only one server is added to the existing M2000 system. The
Citrix access solution has the following advantages:
Solving the problem that the number of connected clients is restricted by the hardware
capacity of the M2000 server
Reducing the costs of upgrading and maintaining the M2000 client
Reducing the hardware configuration costs of the PC where the M2000 client is running
Lowering the requirements for the operating system environment of the PC where the
M2000 client is running
Network Time Synchronization Solution

The M2000 supports the Network Time Protocol (NTP)/Simple Network Time Protocol
(SNTP) so that the time of NEs on the entire network is synchronized.
The clock source and NTP server are provided by a telecom operator, and the M2000
server functions as the NTP client or intermediate NTP server. This ensures that the
M2000 can synchronize time with the upper-layer NTP server and provide a clock source
for managed NEs to synchronize.
A dedicated clock server is provided, which can be installed in the cabinet of the M2000
server. In addition, two NTP service channels working in active/standby mode are
provided. The clock source server can be deployed as the top NTP clock server as a
medium NTP click server.
Veritas System Backup and Restore Solution

The M2000 adopts the Veritas system backup and restore solution. This solution enables users
to back up and restore the key data on the entire network, for example, the operating system
data of the M2000 server, applications, key files, data stored in the database, and key NE data.
3.3 Network Deployment

Flexibly Managing and Mediating NEs
The mediation software can be installed to convert data between NEs and the M2000 so that
the M2000 can manage NEs.
The M2000 can dynamically install NE mediations, upgrade NE mediation patches, or
uninstall NE mediations without disrupting M2000 services on a web-based GUI or command
line interface. When managing various types of NEs, the M2000 can install mediations in
batches without disrupting M2000 services. This reduces the costs of manual operations and
interventions.

Remote and Centralized Initial Configuration

The M2000 provides the remote and centralized initial configuration function during initial
network configuration.
Through a GUI
The M2000 provides the CME for users to configure the GSM, WRAN, LTE, and SRAN
NEs. The M2000 provides a basic configuration function for all NEs in the CS domain
on the CN. Users can prepare configuration data in batches and remotely configure basic
device data in a centralized manner through a GUI. NEs can provide basic services after
being configured initially.
Through a command-line interface

The M2000 provides a command-line interface, which enables users to issue MML
commands to multiple NEs of the same type on the M2000 client.
Users can save MML commands in a script and then schedule and deliver the script to
NEs through the M2000. Users can issue MML commands in debugging mode or task
mode. When issuing commands in debugging mode, users can check script execution
information and execution result of each command in real time. When issuing commands
in task mode, users only need to select a required script and then create a task by using
the centralized task management function.
Radio Transmission Device Search

The M2000 can manage a large number of transmission devices such as microwaves in
mobile networks in a centralized manner. The radio transmission device search function
enables users to search for all the transmission devices that meet specified search conditions.
Then, users can select the required devices from the search result and create the related NEs in
a topology view. In this way, these devices are connected to the M2000 quickly.
Base Station Auto-Deployment

The M2000 provides the auto-deployment function for NodeBs, GBTSs, MBTS (GU, GL,
UL), and eNodeBs. After the hardware a base station is installed and then the base station is
powered on, users can enable the M2000 to remotely perform automatic commissioning on
the base station so that the base station provides services properly. The auto-deployment
function implements automatic remote commissioning, thus avoiding site operation and
maintenance.
Automatic Network Planning

The M2000 automatically plans and delivers the data of small-sized GSM BTSs to quickly
enable BTS services. This reduces BTS deployment duration, manual interventions, and BTS
deployment costs.
The M2000 automatically plans the frequencies, base station identity code (BSIC), cell
global identification (CGI), routing area identity (RAI), and neighboring cell
relationships for GSM Pico BTSs.
The M2000 automatically plans the frequencies, BSIC, and neighboring cell
relationships for GSM Compact BTSs.
The M2000 automatically plans some radio parameters of BTS3902E UMTS and

Remote and Centralized NE Upgrade

NE device upgrade is a common OM operation for service evolution. The M2000 can
remotely upgrade NE devices in batches in a centralized manner. Users can implement
dynamic mediation simply by upgrading NE software versions through the M2000. This
minimizes the impact of NE upgrade on the OM of the entire network.
NE Health Check
The NE health check function is used to check NE status and identify and locate potential
network problems before and after an NE upgrade, during routine network maintenance, or
when an exception occurs in the network. This facilitates troubleshooting.
NodeB License Management

The M2000 manages NodeB licenses by RAN. All the NodeBs in a RAN system share the
resources controlled by the same license. The M2000 enables users to allocate license
resources to the NodeBs in a RAN system in a centralized manner. In addition, the M2000
supports the following operations on license information, which help users know and allocate
license resources in real time:
Query
Periodic synchronization
Manual synchronization
Scheduled check
Threshold monitoring
Scheduled export
The M2000 enables users to disable a license in scenarios such as network capacity expansion,
ESN change, user name change, and version upgrades. In this way, users can quickly apply
for a new license. After users disable a license, the license automatically applies a grace
period. This ensures that services in the existing network are running properly until a new
license is applied. The M2000 also enables users to use a trial license containing some
features with a validity period and then determine whether to purchase these features.
3.4 Network Monitoring

Topology Monitoring
The M2000 provides an integrated topology window, through which users can create and
manage the topology view of the entire network. The topology view displays the networking
status, geographical locations of devices, alarms generated during device operation, link status
between devices, and connection status between devices and the M2000. This helps users to
learn about and monitor the running status of the entire network.
Performance Monitoring
The performance monitoring function enables users to learn about device security, device
running status, and system resource usage in time. This function can meet diversified
requirements in different scenarios, for example, network deployment, routine network
maintenance, and special scenarios such as holidays and festivals. The data obtained from

Page 21 of 46
performance monitoring can be used for further analysis, which provides a basis for the
measurement, design, and operation management of communications networks.
Alarm and Event Monitoring

In scenarios such as NE deployment, upgrade, commissioning, and capacity expansion, NEs
report a large number of unnecessary alarms to the M2000. These alarms severely affect the
monitoring of alarms on devices that are not in maintenance mode. To solve this problem, the
M2000 provides the maintenance mode alarm function. After users set maintenance modes for
an NE, alarms generated in the NE maintenance modes are regarded as maintenance mode
alarms. By default, the M2000 does not display maintenance mode alarms, generate an audio
or visual alarm message, send an alarm notification, or forward these alarms to an external
system. In the alarm monitoring window, users can browse, query, and collect statistics on
maintenance mode alarms by maintenance mode to meet user requirements in specified
scenarios. In common OM scenarios, the M2000 enables users to view the alarm and event
information about all NEs on the network in real time. The M2000 provides various functions
based on the requirements for monitoring system performance and handling alarms.
To ensure that alarm data is accurate and intact, the M2000 provides the functions of
automatically and manually synchronizing alarm data in case of NE or network
disconnection.
To ensure that information can be effectively transmitted to users in real time, the M2000
provides audio and visual alarm notification through topology tips, alarm boxes, and
alarm boards. The M2000 can also send alarm information through short message
services (SMSs) and emails to ensure that the information can be transmitted in time
even when the site is unmanned.
To help users to quickly locate the required information in a large amount of alarm or
event information, the M2000 provides the filtering function based on various conditions.
For example, users can filter alarm/event information by alarm/event source, alarm/event
occurrence time, alarm/event severity, and alarm/event name.
To ensure that users can identify the required key alarms and events during routine
operation and maintenance, the M2000 provides the functions of redefining alarm
severities, converting events to Auto Detected Manual Cleared (ADMC) alarms,
shielding alarms on the M2000, shielding alarms on NEs, and filtering maintenance
mode alarms.
To help users to handle alarms in time, the M2000 provides the functions of locating
alarms in a topology view, automatically clearing alarms, manually clearing alarms, and
displaying and analyzing alarms based on alarm correlations. In addition, the information
about how to handle alarms can be recorded on the M2000 for sharing purposes.
Security Monitoring
The M2000 provides security monitoring functions, which enable users to obtain the
information about unauthorized activities or audit user operations in time. You can perform
the following operations through the M2000:
Querying and exporting users' NE operation logs
Monitoring online NE users and related user operations and forcing a user to exit
Configuration Data Query

Users can query the configuration information about the devices on the entire network
through the M2000. When an exception occurs on the network or when the network needs to
Issue V1.1 (2011-01-15)

Page 22 of 46
be adjusted, users can easily obtain the configuration information and then perform
troubleshooting or adjust the configurations.
To ensure that the configuration data is accurate and valid, the M2000 provides the
functions of synchronizing configuration data automatically, manually, and on a
scheduled basis in cases of configuration modification and network disconnection.
To help users to query configuration data, the configuration query function enables users
to obtain the configuration status of the network in real time. The configuration data
provides a basis for troubleshooting and configuration adjustment. In addition, the
M2000 provides NE reports, CN resource reports, NE statistical reports, link reports, and
RAN configuration reports.
The M2000 provides the status monitoring function, which enables users to obtain the
operating status and management status of objects such as cells, boards, and links on the
network in time.
The M2000 generates link status reports on a scheduled basis. This helps users identify
link exceptions when links are disconnected or the link alarm information is unclear.
Inventory Information Query

The inventory management function enables users to manage the physical and logical asset
information on the network in a centralized manner. Users can view, query, maintain,
synchronize, import, or export the inventory information.
Troubleshooting
The M2000 provides user tracing, cell tracing, and interface tracing functions through GUIs
and supports the centralized tracing management over the entire network. The FARS helps
OM engineers to locate call-related faults and network faults, optimize the network coverage,
and solve interconnection problems. This reduces the OM costs for telecom operators. A
tracing server is deployed on the LTE network to trace a large amount of tracing data.
The device panel displays the board structures of physical devices on a GUI. It also displays
board status and alarm information in real time. The M2000 displays the relationships
between RRUs for distributed base stations in a topology view. This helps users to locate
problems.
The GBSS and WRAN antenna fault detection systems enable users to identify and locate
faults related to GBSS and WRAN antenna line devices (ALDs).
An LTE service aware unit (SAU) server is added to the M2000 system to enable
troubleshooting, system performance management, and self-organizing system (SON)
functions in the LTE network. This server collects and stores tracing data of network devices
and provides a data access interface for operations support systems (OSSs) of telecom
operators. The LTE SAU server and the M2000 are deployed in the same equipment room and
their IP addresses are in the same network segment. These servers belong to the same security
domain, and no firewall is deployed between them. The LTE SAU server is an HP server. An
M2000 system (Sun-based single-server system, HA system, or SLS system) is configured
with an LTE SAU server. If the LTE SAU server is an HP DL580 G5 server or a server with
higher configuration, this server can collect tracing data of up to 2,000 eNodeBs (assuming
that each eNodeB has three cells) at a time. The LTE SAU server can store tracing data for up
to seven days. Data whose storage duration exceeds seven days will be deleted.
Issue V1.1 (2011-01-15)

The M2000 provides a powerful script enhancement maintenance platform, HFC library
function, and an easy-to-use High level Script Language (HSL).Users can create an HSL
script for the repeated and effort-consuming routine maintenance and then use the iSStar to
edit, debug, and run the HSL script. This automates routine maintenance, reduces the
workload, and improves the work efficiency.
Bearer Network Management

The M2000 provides the bearer network management function such as the quality of service
(QoS) dialing test for users to check whether a network fault or a device fault is related to data
transmission. This facilitates fault locating and improves troubleshooting efficiency.
WRAN QoS detection: When IP networking is adopted, the M2000 can monitor IP link
alarms and key transmission counters and test IP links. When ATM networking is
adopted, the M2000 can test network transmission quality by simulating the process of
delivering service packets from NEs.

are applied
The M2000 periodically generates working power levels of GBTSs based on the
available electricity of batteries, predicted electricity, and predicted power consumption.
This significantly reduces power consumption of GBTSs and prolongs GBTS service
duration while ensuring the QoS. Accordingly, configuration of renewable energy is
optimized and configuration costs are reduced.
MBTS Dynamic Power Sharing

The M2000 provides the MBTS dynamic power-sharing function. This function can be
enabled when GSM and UMTS carriers share the same power amplifier. This significantly
improves power usage and quality of both the GSM network and the UMTS network in
scenarios where the busy hours of GSM and UMTS traffic fall on different time segments or
the traffic in GSM and UMTS networks is unbalanced. The M2000 enables users to monitor
the power usage of GSM and UMTS carriers and the power sharing of carriers for the MBTS
GU.
MBTS Dynamic Spectrum Sharing

Using the MBTS dynamic spectrum-sharing function, the M2000 divides the spectrums in the
GSM network into basic spectrums and shared spectrums. Shared spectrums can be
automatically switched between GSM and UMTS networks. This function enables telecom
operators to reuse their spectrum resources; thus improving spectrum usage and data
throughput.

be restored when a fault occurs in NE devices or when an exception occurs in case of NE
upgrade and network adjustment.
3.6 Service Management

MSC Pool/SGSN Pool/USC Pool
Through the M2000, users can group CN NEs such as MSC servers, SGSNs, and USCs into
resource pools for resource sharing and service balancing. This improves hardware resource
usage. In addition, users can configure, monitor, and maintain the resource pools through the
M2000 client.
RNC Pool/BSC pool

The M2000 enables users to group NodeBs and RNCs or BTSs and BSCs into an RNC pool
or a BSC pool. When the primary RNC or BSC is faulty, the services processed by the
NodeBs under the primary RNC or by the BTSs under the primary BSC are automatically
switched over to the secondary RNC or BSC. This reduces the impacts on network services.
The M2000 also enables users to view the homing status of NodeBs or BTSs and monitor the
status of the RNC pool or BSC pool in the topology view in real time.
Dual-Homing
The dual-homing function provides a disaster recovery mechanism for the CN. It prevents
network services from being interrupted when softswitches break down or an exception
occurs. In this way, this function ensures uninterrupted communications. In addition, the
M2000 provides a dual-homing topology view and the functions of synchronizing
dual-homing configuration data and automatically checking data consistency. The purposes
are to facilitate routine dual-homing maintenance.
RAN Sharing Management

The RAN sharing management function is introduced to facilitate multi-operator device
sharing and reduce hardware costs. This function enables multiple telecom operators to share
one communications network. It achieves the cell-sharing mode through the sharing of
physical devices provided by Huawei. In addition, it can ensure the privacy, independency,
and sharing of resources from different telecom operators.
Authority-Based and Domain-Based Management on a Large Local Network

The management of a large local network becomes a trend on a network where the bearer part
and the control part are separated. The authority-based and domain-based management
function is introduced to address this issue. Based on the centralized user management of the
M2000, this function can be used to divide the objects on a large local network into different
domains so that users and user operation rights can be controlled on a per domain basis. This
ensures that the operations of each user are controlled properly.

Operation and Maintenance
5.1 Overview
The M2000 provides functions such as powerful data backup and restoration, comprehensive
system monitoring, and flexible NE upgrade and mediation. These functions significantly
improve OM efficiency.
5.2 OM Features
Comprehensive System Security Solution
The M2000 provides comprehensive security hardening solutions for operating systems
and databases. These solutions meet the security requirements for operating systems and
databases.
To protect the M2000 system against attacks of Trojan horse programs and viruses, the
M2000 provides an antivirus solution for the Linux system. This solution ensures the
security of network OM data. A server functioning as an antivirus server is added to the
network where the M2000 system is deployed. The antivirus software is deployed on
each M2000 server.The antivirus server communicates with the supplier of the antivirus
software through a firewall. In this way, the antivirus server can obtain the latest virus
library and antivirus software upgrade package and then deliver them to each M2000
server.
To enhance the security management feature, the M2000 provides the rights management,
access control, and user monitoring functions. In addition, the OSS-related systems
support single sign-on (SSO). With this feature, a user logs in once and gains access to
all OSS-related systems without being prompted to log in again at each of them.
To ensure secure data transfer between the M2000 server and NEs and between the
M2000 server and the M2000 client, the M2000 provides functions such as the digital
certificate authentication and data transfer security and encryption.
Powerful Data Backup and Restore

The M2000 allows users to set flexible backup policies, based on which users can back up
M2000 applications and data using periodical backup tasks. When the M2000 application data
is damaged or missing, users can restore the system quickly by using the corresponding
Issue V1.1 (2011-01-15)

Page 30 of 46
backup package. In addition, the M2000 provides dedicated backup and restore tools, with
which users can back up and restore the data of the entire operating system.
Comprehensive System Monitoring

Users can set monitored objects and thresholds on the M2000 to monitor the status of all the
M2000 services and the usage of the system resources on each server in real time. In the case
of service interruption or when the usage of system resources reaches a threshold, the system
generates an alarm and quickly notifies users of the fault.
ATAE Cluster System Intelligent Management

All the boards except for the OSMU involved in the Advanced Telecommunications
Application Environment (ATAE) cluster system solution are not configured with any hard
disk. The boards without hard disks use the SAN Boot technology and boot the operating
system from the disk array. If a fault occurs on a board, the SAN Boot technology maps the
boot volume of the faulty board onto the substitute board to quickly resume the services.
OSMU intelligent hardware management
Running on a separate board, the OSMU provides centralized maintenance by enabling

users to change IP addresses, time, routes, user passwords in batches, and power on and
power off the boards in batches. This improves the maintenance efficiency.
The OSMU provides a device panel, which enables users to view the device status in real
time. The information about the board status displayed on the device panel in real time
provides references for board maintenance operations. Error information is included in
alarms and the alarms are automatically sent to the M2000 for uniform hardware alarm
monitoring.
The OSMU provides the function of centralized task management, which enables users
to query the system tasks in real time. By querying the system tasks before performing a
major operation, users can learn the operation and maintenance performed by the OSMU
in advance to make a preliminary decision on the major operation.
The OSMU provides a built-in function of centralized backup. With this function, data
on each service board is backed up to the backup media through the OSMU in a
centralized manner. The backup media for centralized backup through the OSMU is disk
array. In comparison with traditional backup mode, the centralized backup is faster, more
efficient, and more cost-effective.
The OSMU provides the automatic deployment of the operating system and database
software during the commissioning process.
