3.5.2 Basic Configuration Overview
Figure 3-12 indicates four main steps for basic configuration: network interfaces, management
server address, quick settings pertaining to key LTE parameters, and the carrier setting.
Figure 3-12: Configuration Flow
3.5.3 Configure Network Interfaces
The network interfaces defined as part of the initial, basic setup include the WAN/LAN
interfaces, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), and the Local Gateway (LGW) mode.
3.5.3.1 WAN/LAN
Go to the Network > WAN/LAN menu (Figure 3-13). The WAN interface is an external
communication portal (Internet connection) between the eNB's Network Management System
(NMS) – in most cases, the CloudCore OMC - and the Mobility Management Entity (MME). If
not using CloudCore, the eNB's NMS may be a Local OMC or the LTE NMS. All of the Internet /
WAN fields are described in Table 3-1: Internet/WAN.
If the Connect Via field is set to DHCP and the LGW function is enabled
(section
3.5.3.2), the
Connect Type field must be modified. The IP address of the eNB will be changed due to the
MAC address being changed. Therefore, modify the router server at the same time.
The Local Network / LAN interface is used only as a local maintenance port during initial eNB
setup and basic configuration; it is not used during normal eNB operation. Enter the IP address
and subnet mask address for the local network connection. The default IP address for the LAN
interface is 192.168.150.1.
