LMT
The LMT is a logical concept. It refers to an O&M terminal that has the Huawei
Local Maintenance Terminal software installed and connects to the O&M network
for an NE. You can operate and maintain NEs by using the LMT.
LMT PC
The LMT PC is a hardware concept. It refers to a computer where the Huawei
Local Maintenance Terminal software is installed.
LMT Software
The LMT software refers to the Huawei Local Maintenance Terminal software
developed by Huawei and installed on the LMT PC.
Use the LMT to operate and maintain a base station in the following scenarios:
● When the OM channel between the base station and MAE is unavailable, use
the LMT to deploy the base station locally.
● When communications between the base station and MAE are interrupted,
use the LMT to locate and fix the faults.
● When alarms are generated on the base station and related boards must be
locally replaced, use the LMT to locate and fix the faults.
NOTE
When the base station is appropriately communicating with the MAE, you are advised to
operate and maintain the base station on the remote network management center. When
you want to obtain real-time information about a base station from the MAE to locate
faults, the MAE may fail to provide adequate information because it manages many
network elements (NEs). In this situation, use the LMT to operate and maintain the base
station.
The LMT provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI), which helps users operate and
maintain the base station on the web. The LMT implements the following local
OM functions:
● Only Chinese or English characters are supported on the LMT. If characters in other
languages are entered on the LMT, exceptions may occur on the GUI.
● The LMT records user operations, such as login, deregistration, user addition, and user
removal in the operation log. You can run the MML command ULD LOG to export and
view the operation log. For details about how to use this command, see 3900 & 5900
Series Base Station MML Command Reference.
Hardware Configuration
Table 1-1 lists the hardware requirements for the LMT PC.
Hard disk 80 GB 10 GB
CD-ROM drive - -
NOTE
When a PC has been running for a long time or multiple programs occupying huge memory
space are running on the PC, memory usage of the PC almost reaches 100%. In this case, if
the LMT starts, the PC cannot allocate sufficient memory space to the LMT, and exceptions
may occur, such as slower user interface (UI) response and unavailability of tracing and
monitoring functions.
Mappings between the PC memory and the number of LMT clients that can simultaneously
start on the PC are as follows:
● On a PC of 4 GB memory, 32 LMT clients can simultaneously start.
● On a PC of 2 GB memory, 16 LMT clients can simultaneously start.
● On a PC of 1 GB memory, eight LMT clients can simultaneously start.
● On a PC of 512 MB memory, four LMT clients can simultaneously start.
The preceding mappings apply when no other software is running on the PC and only basic
functions, such as MML, alarm, and device panel, are used on the LMT. When other
functions are running on an LMT such as tracing, monitoring, and batch processing, the
LMT will consume over 50 MB additional memory on the PC. Therefore, fewer LMT clients
can simultaneously start on the PC.
Software Configuration
The LMT PC must meet the following software requirements:
● Operating system
– Microsoft Windows Server 2012
– Microsoft Windows Server 2016
– Microsoft Windows 10
NOTE
● Currently, the LMT supports 32-bit or 64-bit operating systems and web browsers.
● Microsoft officially stopped supporting Windows 7 on January 14, 2020. The LMT
no longer supports Windows 7. Please upgrade the operating system to a later
version.
You must set the security level of the web browser to medium or low. Otherwise,
the LMT menu cannot be viewed.
To improve system security, enable TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 when using the browser.
Ensure that the protocol version, encryption algorithm, and signature algorithm
supported by the browser match those of the LMT. Otherwise, SSL connection
failures are displayed when you log in to the LMT. For example, the certificate of
the ED25519 key type is not widely supported by browsers. Therefore, when the
SSL certificate on the base station is set to the ED25519 key type, the LMT may
fail to be accessed.
If the zoom ratio of a web page is not 100%, the WebLMT page may be displayed
abnormally. Therefore, you are advised to use the WebLMT on a web page with
100% zoom ratio.
Keep the browser window maximized when using WebLMT. If the browser window
is not maximized, the WebLMT interface is not fully displayed.
Port Requirements
Use a web browser to log in to the NE for O&M. If a firewall exists between the
NE and the LMT PC, ports 20, 21, and 80 must be enabled on the firewall; If
Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) or WebSocket Secure (WSS) is
required, ports 20, 21, and 443 must be enabled on the firewall.
NOTE
● Ports 20 and 21 are used for the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and must be enabled in the
case of file transfer using FTP.
● Port 443 is used for the HTTPS and WSS by default.
Communication Capability
The LMT PC must support TCP/IP protocols.
The minimum effective bandwidth for the LMT is 512 kbit/s. The recommended
bandwidth is 2 Mbit/s or larger.
NOTE
● The network bandwidth limits the web page opening speed. If the recommended
effective bandwidth is provided, the LMT runs fast. If the minimum effective network
bandwidth is provided, all the functions can be performed but the LMT runs slowly.
● The effective bandwidth is the bandwidth occupied by the LMT. If multiple applications
compete for the bandwidth, the LMT may run slowly even if a 2 Mbit/s bandwidth is
provided.
GUI

----End
Prerequisites
● Before logging in to the LMT in Microsoft Windows Server 2012, install the
cipher suite patch. For details, see 1.6.6.5 How to Install the Cipher Suite
Patch.
● Before using the LMT, install the JAVA Platform Standard Edition Runtime
Environment (JRE) plug-in on the LMT PC.
– The JRE plug-in can be downloaded from the Java official website.
– If the JRE plug-in is not installed on the PC or the installed JRE plug-in is
not the compatible version, the Java client window cannot be opened or
some functions of the LMT cannot work properly.
NOTE
For problems about installing or using the Java plug-in, follow instructions provided in
1.6.6.6 Help for Installing and Using the Java Plug-in.
– After a successful login to the LMT main page, when you click the batch
processing, tracing, monitoring, or device maintenance function, the
Local Maintenance Terminal window is opened for you to execute
commands or view data and results. For details about how to open the
Local Maintenance Terminal, see 1.6.6.7 How to Open the Local
Maintenance Terminal.
– If you cannot log in to the LMT after the JRE plug-in is upgraded to the
latest version, restart the browser and log in again.
Context
● LMT users are categorized into local users and EMS users. For details, see
1.3.2.1 Concepts Related to Rights Management.
● By default, only one local user or EMS user can log in to the LMT. (If the base
station is properly connected to the OSS, local users cannot log in to the LMT
locally by default. For details, see note "When you try to connect the LMT PC
to the base station through the local maintenance port" in "Procedure" of this
section.) If more users need to log in to the system at the same time, run the
SET USRMAXONLINE command to change the default value.
NOTE
● A maximum of six local users and EMS users can log in to the LMT at the same
time.
● By default, the HTTPS or WSS is used for connecting to the LMT. If you enter
an HTTP URL in a web browser to connect to the LMT, the HTTP request
automatically changes to an HTTPS request.
● Connection to the LMT over HTTPS or WSS requires digital certificates. If the
base station is not configured with a digital certificate or the digital certificate
status is abnormal (you can run the DSP APPCERT command to query the
digital certificate status), you cannot access the LMT. (In the case of
certificate expiration, access to the LMT is allowed, but you are advised to
replace the digital certificate as soon as possible.)
– The operator-issued certificate and device certificate of a base station on
the LMT are in a descending order of priorities.
– If an operator has deployed a PKI system, secure base station deployment
by PnP is recommended and the operator-issued certificate must be
obtained prior to access.
● After the ACT CFGFILE command is executed to activate the minimum
configuration, you can access the LMT only in HTTPS mode. Ensure that the
digital certificate is normal before activating the minimum configuration.
● When the LMT is running, do not change the system time or time zone of the
LMT PC. Otherwise, a critical fault may occur in the system. If the system time
or time zone has to be changed, perform the operation after the LMT exits.
● The refresh function of the browser cannot be used on the LMT. If you use the
refresh function in the LMT main window, the LMT is logged out. If you use
the refresh function on the monitor window, an error occurs in the script.
● Before you upgrade or roll back the LMT version, clear the browser's cache
and cookies.
● The LMT supports only the connection policy indicated by
HTTPS_ONLY(Https_only). You can run the SET WEBLOGINPOLICY
command to set the default connection policy of the LMT, but connection
policies other than that indicated by HTTPS_ONLY(Https_only) do not take
effect. In later versions, connection policies, except that indicated by
HTTPS_ONLY(Https_only), will be deleted. Therefore,
HTTPS_ONLY(Https_only) is recommended.
● If the WebLMT Login Policy parameter is set to HTTPS_ONLY(Https_only)
but login by HTTP is configured on the MAE, login to the LMT in MAE proxy
mode does not work.
● The password status will be checked when you log in to the LMT. You can set
whether the LMT can force the user to change the password upon the first
login by running the SET PWDPOLICY command.
● The TLS/SSL version of the web browser and the JRE must be set to the same
value as the TLS/SSL Version parameter configured using the SET
WEBLOGINPOLICY command. Otherwise, the Web LMT login page cannot be
opened using the web browser or the Web LMT that you have logged in to
cannot work properly.
● During the LMT or board restart, if the Web server does not respond when
you log in to the WebLMT, the current browser may load some pages from
the browser cache, as shown in Figure 1-5.
● After a login timeout message is prompted, if the Web server does not
respond when you log in to the WebLMT again, the current browser may load
some pages from the cache, as shown in Figure 1-6.
Procedure
● Method 1: To use the LMT to log in to and log out of the base station
locally, perform the following steps:
NOTE
● When you try to connect the LMT PC to the base station through the local
maintenance port, you may encounter the following four scenarios:
● If the LOCALETHPORT.SWITCH parameter is set to ENABLE(Enable),
the LMT PC can be directly connected to the base station through the
local maintenance port.
● If the OMCH works properly and LOCALETHPORT.SWITCH is set to
DISABLE(Disable), the base station disables the local maintenance port
by default. If you need to connect the LMT PC to the base station
through the local maintenance port, first run the MML command SET
LOCALETHPORT on the MAE with LOCALETHPORT.SWITCH set to
ENABLE(Enable).
● If the base station cannot be maintained remotely due to OMCH faults,
the base station reports ALM-25901 Remote Maintenance Link Failure
after the OMCH is interrupted for 5 minutes. If the
LOCALETHPORT.SWITCH parameter is set to DISABLE(Disable), the
base station automatically enables the local maintenance port. The LMT
PC can connect to the base station through the local maintenance port.
After the OMCH is restored, the base station disables the local
maintenance port. In this case, the LMT PC cannot connect to the base
station through the local maintenance port. If you need to connect the
LMT PC to the base station through the local maintenance port, first run
the MML command SET LOCALETHPORT on the MAE with
LOCALETHPORT.SWITCH set to ENABLE(Enable).
● If the OMCH MO is not configured on the base station and the
LOCALETHPORT.SWITCH parameter is set to DISABLE(Disable), the
base station automatically enables the local maintenance port after
restart. In this case, the LMT PC can connect to the base station through
the local maintenance port.
● If the LMT PC is configured with a WLAN wireless network adapter and the
local wireless access point device is enabled on the base station (by running
the SET LOCALWAP command with Switch set to default value ON(On)),
the PC can be connected to the base station through the local wireless access
point device as long as the base station transmits WLAN signals:
● If the OMCH works properly, the base station disables WLAN signals by
default. To connect the LMT PC to the base station through a local
wireless access point device, run the SET LOCALWAPSW command on
the MAE with Enable Switch set to ENABLE and Enable Elapse Time
set to an appropriate value. During the time specified by Enable Elapse
Time, the base station transmits WLAN signals so that the LMT PC can
be connected to the base station through a local wireless access point
device.
● If the OMCH is disconnected, the base station automatically transmits
WLAN signals to allow for the connection. After the OMCH recovers, the
base station transmits WLAN signals within the duration specified by AP
auto disable time. The LMT PC can connect to the base station through
the local wireless access point device. You can run the SET LOCALWAP
command to set the AP auto disable time parameter.
● For details about how to configure a WLAN wireless NIC on a PC, see 1.6.6.8
How to Configure Wireless NIC on a Computer.
● The service set identifier (SSID) of the local wireless access point device is in
the format of HID_XXXXXXXXXX, where XXXXXXXXXX indicates the last 10
digits in the ESN.
● The initial password of the local wireless access point device is T4$9Mc@q#
$rb&hFL (case-sensitive). The password can be changed using the SET
LOCALWAPPWD command on the MAE.
● For security purposes, only one terminal or user can log in to the local
wireless access point device at a time.
● The LMT PC can locally connect to the base station in wireless mode with the
valid line of sight (LOS) being less than 10 m (32.81 ft).
b. In the address box of the browser, enter the IP address of the main
control board for local maintenance. The default IP address is
192.168.0.49 in wired login mode and 192.168.1.49 in wireless login
mode.
NOTE
● To log in to the Web LMT locally, you need to set the IP address of the LMT
PC to be in the same network segment as the IP address of the base station.
● For NodeBs:
● If main control board UMPT is upgraded from V200R014C00 or earlier to
V200R015C00 or later, use the IP address before the upgrade as the local
maintenance IP address.
● If main control board UMPT is newly delivered and the software version
is V200R015C00 or later, use 192.168.0.49 as the default local
maintenance IP address.
● If the ACT CFGFILE command is executed to enable the minimum
configuration and Reserved IP is set to NO, the local maintenance IP address
is restored to 192.168.0.49.
● The local maintenance IP address cannot be the same or on the same
network segment as an existing IP address used on the live network. If such a
local maintenance IP address is used, it must be changed by running the SET
LOCALIP command. Otherwise, information on the MAE, such as counters
and CHR logs, will be lost when the base station is maintained both locally
and remotely.
c. Click Go. The Local Maintenance Terminal login page is displayed.
d. Specify User name and Password, and Verification code, and set User
type to Local.
NOTE

the following steps:
a. Enter https://MAE IP:port/OM IP/login.html in the address box of the
browser to open the WebLMT login page.
NOTE
● Port indicates the port number of the MAE. The port number of the MAE is
80, 443, 8080, or 8081. Port 80 or 443 is used in the old proxy mode that does
not require authentication. Port 8080 or 8081 is used in the new proxy mode
that requires the user name and password of the proxy server to open the
WebLMT login page.
● When you log in to the WebLMT remotely using the MAE proxy, ensure that
the connections between the PC and the MAE proxy server, and between the
MAE proxy server and the base station work properly. In addition, the firewall
does not forbid the currently used ports.
● In the topology page on the MAE, you can right-click an NE and choose
Maintenance Client from the shortcut menu to open the WebLMT.
b. Specify User name, Password, and Verification code, and set User type
to EMS or Local.
NOTE
● User names and passwords for an EMS account are authorized by the MAE.

User Type
LMT users are categorized into local users and EMS users, which are described as
follows:
● Local users: Local users are independently managed by the LMT, including
local default account admin, and can use the LMT to log in to the base
station when being disconnected from the MAE.
● EMS user: EMS users are centrally managed, created, modified, authenticated,
and authorized by the MAE. Authorized EMS users can perform operations on
the base station by logging in to the LMT or logging in to the MAE server. To
log in to the base station as an EMS user, ensure that the base station is
connected to the MAE server.
Operation Rights
LMT operators include an internal operator and external operators.
● The internal operator is a default system account with the user name being
admin and password being Y5$7Kc@u#$tr&LhF. The internal operator has
administration rights.
● There are five levels of external operators with different rights as follows:
– GUEST: Operators of this level are allowed only to view data. They can
use command groups G_0, G_2, G_4, G_6, G_8, G_10, G_12, G_16, G_18,
and G_20.
– USER: Operators of this level have the rights of GUEST-level operators
and are also allowed to operate and maintain the system. They can use
any command groups other than G_1, G_9, G_14, or G_15.
– OPERATOR: Operators of this level have the rights of USER-level
operators and are also allowed to configure data. They can use any
command groups other than G_1, G_9, G_14, or G_15.
– ADMINISTRATOR: Operators of this level have the rights to run all
commands, but cannot delete default user admin. They can use all
command groups.
– CUSTOM: Operators of this level can be allocated with any command
groups. Command groups that are assigned when the account is created.
The rights can be changed. Different operators of this level have different
operation rights.
Login Password
Login password involves the password definition, initial password setting, and
password change permissions, which are described as follows:
● Password definition: Each operator account is allocated a login password to
ensure system security. An operator must enter the correct user name and
password when logging in to the LMT. The operator can log in to the base
station only after being verified.
● Initial password setting: The login password of admin user is set when the
base station application software is installed. The operator with the
ADMINISTRATOR-level account, and authorized operators with CUSTOM-level
accounts are allowed to set the login password of an external operator
account when creating the account.
● Password change permissions: All operators can change their own passwords.
The operator with the ADMINISTRATOR-level account, and authorized
operators with CUSTOM-level accounts are allowed to change the login
password of any external operator account.
NOTE
● New external operator accounts must be different from existing operator accounts.
● The admin account is an internal operator account and cannot be removed.
NOTE
Keep the password of the admin account secure. If you forget the password, you cannot log
in to the system as user admin. Huawei will not be liable for any loss caused in this case. If
you forget the password of the admin account, contact Huawei engineers for technical
support.
NOTICE
Changing the password of an EMS user will cause this user to log out of the MAE.

----End
Alarm
An alarm is generated if the hardware is faulty or a major function fails. An alarm
has a higher severity than an event. Based on the status of the faults, alarms can
be classified into active alarms and cleared alarms.
● If a fault is cleared, the status of the alarm changes to clear. This type of
alarm is called a cleared alarm.
● If a fault has not been cleared, the corresponding alarm is an active alarm.
This type of alarm is called an active alarm.
NOTE
Based on the engineering status of the NE that reported an alarm, the alarm can
be an engineering alarm or a normal alarm.
Event
An event notifies users of important information when the system is operating
correctly. Users do not need to handle an event.
An alarm can be reported to the alarm box only if this flag is set to Report for the
alarm and the alarm severity is greater than or equal to the severity specified for
alarm reporting to the alarm box.
NOTE
Functions
A monitoring task is a monitoring instance which consists of monitoring items,
monitoring objects, and monitoring parameters.
You can analyze exceptions based on the monitoring results to maintain devices
and rectify faults.
NOTE
● To use the monitoring function, you must install the Java runtime environment (JRE)
plug-in.
● The monitoring window is fixed in size and does not change with the web page.
● It is good practice to use the MAE instead of the LMT to monitor performance in heavy
traffic scenarios. The LMT cannot accommodate large amounts of processing data and
may fail to create monitoring tasks in heavy traffic scenarios.
● The timing mechanisms of operating systems experience millisecond-level deviation.
Therefore, the reporting intervals of monitoring tasks are not exactly the same.
Internal Process
Among all real-time performance monitoring processes, the internal process of
CPU usage monitoring is different from that of other real-time performance
monitoring functions.
Internal process of CPU usage monitoring
1. After a CPU usage monitoring task is created on the LMT, the LMT sends a
binary CPU usage query command to the maintenance module of the base
station every other monitoring period.
2. The maintenance module of the base station sends the command to the
maintenance module of a specified board.
3. The board collects related data and then reports the data to the maintenance
module of the base station.
4. The maintenance module of the base station forwards the data to the LMT.
Internal process of other monitoring functions
● Creating a monitoring task
a. After you create a monitoring task on the LMT, the LMT sends a binary
command to the base station to create the task.
b. The base station allocates an ID to the task and forwards the command
to the monitoring management module of a specified board.
c. After receiving the command, the monitoring management module
informs the service processing module of the command. Then, the service
processing module starts the performance monitoring task.
● Reporting monitoring results
a. After the performance monitoring task is started, the service processing
module reports monitoring results to the LMT.
b. The LMT parses the monitoring results and displays them in the window.
Software Types
There are different types of software.
● BootROM
All the boards on the base station are equipped with the BootROM. The
BootROM refers to the software bound with hardware. It provides basic device
drive function and can be started and upgraded manually.
The BootROM is a re-writable storage medium, which is used to store binary
data, that is, the machine codes.
● Base station software
The base station software is the version software of a base station.
● Cold patch
The base station cold patch is also known as the patch. It can upgrade a
specific board or module to improve functions or to fix some problems.
● Hot patch
The hot patch is also known as the online patch. It supports upgrades without
disrupting the system operation and rectifies some function defects.
File Types
There are different types of files, and operations on the files vary with the types.
● Data configuration file
A data configuration file contains parameter settings for each module of the
base station.
This file is an .xml file. You can upload and download the file.
● Operation log
An operation log file records the information about the maintenance and
operation of the base station.
This file is a text file. You can upload the file.
● Main control log
A main control log file is a collection of logs including the original,
commissioning, or user alarm logs, running logs, call logs, cell logs,
maintenance logs, and operation logs.
This file is a binary file. You can upload the file.
● Board log
A board log file is a collection of logs including the logs of active and standby
CPU breakdown, the detailed breakdown logs, and the DSP memory logs.
This file is a binary file. You can upload the file.
NOTE
Board log files vary with boards because some boards do not have a standby CPU and
other boards do not have a DSP.
● Routine RTWP test log
After a routine RTWP test is started, the system keeps a real-time RTWP log.
This file is a binary file. You can upload the file.
● Device archive file
A device archive file records information about each board of the base station,
such as the manufacturing information and running time.
This file is an .xml file. You can upload the file.

1.6.6.3 Error Message "This user session already exists" Upon Login to LMT
The interface displays an error message This user session already exists upon
login to LMT. To solve the problem, perform the steps in Procedure.
Context
To enhance system security, the client browser uses Cookie to store the session
information of users who have successfully logged in. Due to the session Cookie
mechanism, the user encounters the following problems when using LMT:
● Problem 1: For the same NE, a user desires to log in to multiple LMTs. After
successfully logging in to the first LMT, the user logs in to the second LMT of
the NE, and the message This user session already exists is displayed. This is
because all browser windows opened by the same user share the same
session under the session sharing mechanism of , Chrome, and Firefox
enabled by default. As a result, when the user attempts to repeatedly log in
to the LMTs of the same NE, the system determines a repeated login of the
same user session.
● Problem 2: The LMT interface displays the error message This user session
already exists, while the user has not carried out the operation described in
Problem 1. This is because the previous session information remains valid due
to an abnormal exit from LMT. As a result, the LMT determines a repeated
login attempt when the same user tries to log in to the LMT. This problem
arises when the browser automatically recovers from breaking down during
use of the LMT, or when the pop-up LMT window is blocked by the browser
pop-up blocker.
● Problem 3: After you use the browser to log in to the LMT, and then enter the
IP address of the base station into Windows Explorer to open the browser, the
message This user session already exists is displayed. This problem is caused
by the conflict of the browser sessions created in both manners.
Procedure
● For problems 1 and 3, only one LMT can be opened for an NE using the
Chrome or Firefox browser.
● For Problem 2, the following method is used:
a. Close all currently opened browser windows to make the previous session
information invalid.
b. If the pop-up blocker is enabled for the browser, disable it.
c. Restart the browser and log in to LMT.
----End
Procedure
Step 1 Check all running programs on the PC. Find the program using the same shortcut
key settings as the LMT.
Step 2 Modify the program shortcut key settings which are the same as those on the LMT

● A maximum of one PTP message tracing task can be created at one time.
● The PTP clock links use the IEEE 1588 V2 protocol.
NOTE
IEEE 1588 V2 is a protocol of precise clock synchronization defined by IEEE. The full name
is "A Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control
Systems", which is also referred to as PTPv2.
● IEEE 1588 V2 applies to the scenario where all nodes on a distributed network
must be precisely synchronized in terms of reference clocks. It provides a
mechanism for achieving time synchronization among all nodes using the
same reference clock.
● IEEE 1588 V2 transmits timestamps by means of message exchange to
achieve clock synchronization. If IEEE 1588 V2 does not function properly, PTP
message tracing can be started to view IEEE 1588 V2 messages.
● If all IEEE 1588 V2 messages are traced, check the interval at which packets
are transmitted on the clock link. If packets are transmitted at small intervals,
there are a large number of messages. Therefore, the tracing affects the
system performance. You are advised not to start multiple trace tasks at the
same time.
Procedure
Step 1 In the LMT main window, click the Trace tab. The Trace window is displayed.

Prerequisites
● You have logged in to the LMT using an account with the required operation
rights.
● The emergency OM channel has been successfully established.
Context
● For configurations of an emergency OM channel, see 1.2.6 Configuring the
Emergency OM Channel.
● A maximum of one MAC message tracing task can be created at one time.
● The protocol type, source MAC address, destination MAC address, VLAN tag,
VLAN ID, and VLAN priority are used for identifying messages at the MAC
layer.
● To trace messages more specific to a fault, you can choose one or more items
from the protocol type, source MAC address, destination MAC address, VLAN
tag, VLAN ID, and VLAN priority to specify the scope of messages to be
traced.
● Currently, MAC message tracing tasks can parse only Ethernet II packets.
Packets complying with the following protocols can be captured: IP, ARP,
RARP, LLDP, ETHOAM, OAM3AH, 802.1x, SYNCETH, and IPv6. For details
about how to choose the protocol type, contact Huawei technical support.
● If the message Error returned from NE: Invalid board is displayed when a
tracing task is created during the base station deployment by PnP, run the
DSP BRD command to check whether the board for which the tracing task is
created has been configured. If the board is not configured, run the ADD BRD
command to add the board. Restart the tracing task after the board is
configured successfully.
● In secure networking scenarios, packets are encrypted and decrypted at the IP
layer. The payload in the MAC packet is encrypted. Therefore, IP packets
cannot be parsed at the MAC layer. In this case, the search criteria for the IP
layer is invalid for MAC message tracing.
● In secure networking scenarios, TCP packets cannot be identified. As a result,
TCP packets cannot be filtered out during MAC message tracing, leading to
packet capture loops. Therefore, AH/ESP encrypted packets cannot be
captured when MAC tracing is initiated remotely on the MAE. In this scenario,
enable remote IP message tracing or local MAC message tracing on the LMT.
Secure networking scenarios are as follows:
– The OMCH is configured with IPsec protection.
– When TRANSCFGMODE in GTRANSPARA is set to OLD, the IPSECBIND
MO takes effect on a board. You can run the LST IPSECBIND command
to check whether the IPSECBIND MO takes effect.
– When TRANSCFGMODE in GTRANSPARA is set to NEW, the
IPSECBINDITF MO takes effect on a board. You can run the LST
IPSECBINDITF command to check whether the IPSECBINDITF MO takes
effect.
● In MAC tracing, MLDv2 protocol packets cannot be obtained.
● The value of Maximum Frame Length is not limited for capturing of IPv6
frame packets.

NOTICE
This tracing task is used to trace uplink and downlink service data of a base
station. This type of tracing involves a large amount of data and has a great
impact on the uplink and downlink service forwarding performance of NEs. You
are advised to use this type of tracing under the assistance of Huawei technical
support.
● A maximum of one IP layer protocol tracing task can be created at one time.
● The local IP address, peer IP address, protocol type, IP DSCP, local port
number, and peer port number are used for identifying packets at the IP layer.
● You can specify the protocol type or source/destination port No. to limit the
scope of packet capture.
● Either the protocol type or port No. must be specified for locating
transmission problems. Otherwise, the packet capture is less useful for
problem location.
● An IP layer protocol message tracing task cannot trace TCP packets connected
to the LMT itself in the uplink.
● The following operations cannot be started simultaneously on one board:
MAC trace, IP trace, and remote loopback that is either applied to all IP
addresses or a specified address.
● If the message Error returned from NE: Invalid board is displayed when a
tracing task is created during the base station deployment by PnP, run the
DSP BRD command to check whether the board for which the tracing task is
created has been configured. If the board is not configured, run the ADD BRD
command to add the board. Restart the tracing task after the board is
configured successfully.
● In IPv4-over-IPv6 IPsec and IPv6-over-IPv4 IPsec encryption scenarios,
ciphertext cannot be traced by IP layer protocol message tracing tasks and
IPv6 protocol message tracing tasks. To capture such packets, see 1.7.1.2 MAC
Trace.
● 1588v2 packets in the sending direction cannot be traced in IP layer and IPv6
protocol tracing. If 1588v2 packets in the sending direction need to be traced,
you can capture them in MAC or PTP tracing.
● In IPsec scenarios, the packet capture granularity can be limited only based on
plaintext rules.

NOTICE
This tracing task is used to trace uplink and downlink service data of a base
station. This type of tracing involves a large amount of data and has a great
impact on the uplink and downlink service forwarding performance of NEs. You
are advised to use this type of tracing under the assistance of Huawei technical
support.
● A maximum of one IPv6 protocol message tracing task can be created at one
time.
● The local IPv6 address, peer IPv6 address, protocol type, IP DSCP, local prefix
length, and peer prefix length are used for identifying packets at the IPv6
layer.
● You can specify the protocol type or source/destination port No. to limit the
scope of packet capture.
● Either the protocol type or port No. must be specified for locating
transmission problems. Otherwise, the packet capture is less useful for
problem location.
● An IPv6 protocol message tracing task cannot trace TCP packets connected to
the LMT itself in the uplink.
● The following operations cannot be started simultaneously on one board:
MAC trace, IPv6 trace, and remote loopback that is either applied to all IP
addresses or a specified address.
● If the message Error returned from NE: Invalid board is displayed when a
tracing task is created during the base station deployment by PnP, run the
DSP BRD command to check whether the board for which the tracing task is
created has been configured. If the board is not configured, run the ADD BRD
command to add the board. Restart the tracing task after the board is
configured successfully.
● In IPv6 protocol message tracing, packets sent to the multicast address and
local link address cannot be obtained. To capture such packets, see 1.7.1.2
MAC Trace.
● In IPv4-over-IPv6 IPsec and IPv6-over-IPv4 IPsec encryption scenarios,
ciphertext cannot be traced by IP layer protocol message tracing tasks and
IPv6 protocol message tracing tasks. To capture such packets, see 1.7.1.2 MAC
Trace.
● In IPv6 protocol message tracing, packets are captured before IP layer
fragmentation and before IP layer reassembly.
● 1588v2 packets in the sending direction cannot be traced in IP layer and IPv6
protocol tracing. If 1588v2 packets in the sending direction need to be traced,
you can capture them in MAC or PTP tracing.
● In IPsec scenarios, the packet capture granularity can be limited only based on
plaintext rules.

● You have logged in to the LMT using an account with the required operation
rights.
● The JRE plug-in has been installed.
Context
● This task is used to locate the connection fault between the RRU/RFU and the
antenna in the following scenarios:
– A voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) alarm is generated. In this
situation, you can perform this task on a specified transmit channel of
the RRU or RFU that reported the alarm on the local or remote
maintenance terminal. This task cannot be created on the MAE.
– In routine maintenance, a VSWR exception is detected on the local or
remote maintenance terminal. In this situation, you can perform this task
to further locate the fault. The MAE does not support this task.
● The test frequency used by the base station varies as follows:
– If you have specified a test frequency, the base station chooses this
frequency to perform the intermodulation detection.
– If you have not specified any test frequency, the base station chooses a
test frequency that is supported by its RF boards from the predefined
authorized downlink frequency band (which can be added using the ADD
AUTHDLFREQRANGE command).
– If no test frequency or authorized downlink frequency band is specified,
the base station chooses a test frequency based only on the capability of
its RF boards. In this case, UEs may transmit power outside the
authorized downlink frequency band.
● The following modules do not support DTF tests: AAU, LampSite pRRU, MRFU
V1, MRFU V2, MRFUd, MRFUe, WRFUd, WRFUe, LRFU, WRFU, DRFU, GRFU,

Prerequisites
● You have logged in to the LMT using an account with the required operation
rights.
● The JRE plug-in has been installed.
Context
● The measured board-level RTWP is related to the effective bandwidth of the
carrier, noise factor of the RF module, and service load. For an unloaded cell,
the formula for estimating the RTWP is as follows: -174 + 10 x lg(Bandwidth)
+ NF.
NOTE
● Bandwidth indicates the effective bandwidth of the carrier in the unit of Hz. NF is
the noise factor of the RF module in the unit of dB.
● For an unloaded cell, assume that the noise factor of the RF module is 5 dB.
● If the carrier is an LTE FDD 10 MHz carrier, the RTWP is typically about -99
dBm.
● If the carrier is an LTE TDD 20 MHz carrier, the RTWP is typically about -96
dBm.
● If the carrier is an NR TDD 100 MHz carrier, the RTWP is typically about -89
dBm.
● 3GPP protocols define the RTWP measurement precision as +/-4 dB.
● A normal curve is displayed if the reported board-level RTWP is valid. The
vertical axis shows the measurement value and the unit is 0.1 dBm.
● If no board-level RTWP is reported, the RF module may be disconnected or
cannot be detected, or the RF channels are faulty. In this case, locate and
rectify the problem.
● The board-level RTWP of up to five RF modules can be measured
simultaneously.
● The mmWave RF module does not support board-level RTWP measurement.

Result
Prerequisites
● You have logged in to the LMT using an account with the required operation
rights.
● The JRE plug-in has been installed.
● The antenna system VSWR has a great impact on the PIM detection result. If
the antenna channel VSWR is abnormal, the PIM detection result is unreliable.
Therefore, when you locate PIM faults in an antenna system, locate the VSWR
problem first.
● If an RF module reports a major alarm, the detection result is unreliable. In
this case, do not start the detection.
● This function can be used when a feeder is connected to the load. The
detection cannot be performed when the feeder is too short.
● When the antenna system is equipped with external devices, such as a
combiner, filter, or tower-mounted amplifier (TMA), if the fault point is
located between the RRU and the external device, the detection result is
inaccurate. In this scenario, do not use this function.
● Bandwidths of external devices such as external filter affect scanning
bandwidth. Therefore, the detection result is inaccurate.
● If there are PIM reflection sources adjacent to the antenna system, the
detection result is inaccurate.
● If there is serious external interference, the detection result is inaccurate.
● If the detected fault point is adjacent to the DIN connector, the detection
result is inaccurate.
Context
● Only some RRUs support this function. The intermodulation power of an RRU,
power capability of a single channel, and instantaneous bandwidth
determines whether the RRU supports this function. An RRU supports this
function if it meets all of the following requirements: The 3-order or 5-order
PIM interference exists. The 3-order intermodulation power is greater than –
90 dBm or the 5-order intermodulation power is greater than –95 dBm. The
power of a single channel is greater than 40 W. The intermodulation scanning
bandwidth is greater than 10 MHz.
● When the antenna system experiences a PIM fault, users can locate the fault
point based on the DTP test results, which eliminates the need of repeated
tower climbing for fault point location and therefore reduces the maintenance
cost.
Procedure
Step 1 In the LMT main window, click Monitor.
Step 2 In Monitor Navigation Tree, choose Monitor > Common Monitoring. Double-
click DTP Test.
Step 3 Set related parameters. For details about parameter descriptions, see Table 1-115.

● After the version software is successfully activated, the base station
automatically resets.
NOTE
● In special scenarios such as base station deployment or upgrade, select the Download
version software check box and set Delay Download Flag to Yes (Delay download) to
reduce the time required. In delay download mode, only the minimum LMT package is
downloaded, and the complete LMT package can be automatically downloaded about four
hours later. This mode has no impact on the base station software. If the functions of the
complete LMT package are required before the complete package is automatically
downloaded, you can run the SPL SOFTWARE command to download the complete package
to the base station.
● If the Install license check box is selected and Force flag is set to Yes, the license file is
forcibly installed despite of any errors. If Force flag is set to No, error information is
displayed during the license file installation. For details, see Troubleshooting in License
Management Feature Parameter Description of the corresponding mode. It is good practice
to set Force flag to No.
● File Name and Function Type must be specified for a license to be installed. If a license is
already installed for a function type, installing a license again causes the current license of

● The FTP server is running properly. The IP address of the FTP server is on the
same network segment as the IP address of the base station, and the FTP
server is properly connected to the base station.
● There is no firewall between the FTP server and the base station.
● The user of the FTP server has the permission to read files in specified paths.
Context
● Downloading the extra configuration file requires that the FTP server be used
to download files to the base station. Therefore, this operation is available
only when you log in to the base station using the LMT rather than the MAE
proxy.
● The extra configuration files downloaded using the LMT can be in plaintext or
encrypted format. If the extra configuration files are encrypted, enter the
encryption password to download them.
● If the configuration script contains commands that become effective only
through reset, manually reset the related base station APP.
NOTE
● After exporting .xml incremental scripts of the base stations (excluding GBTSs) from the
MAE-Deployment and before you activate the scripts, authenticate operators based on the
content of the scripts (domain and operation type) by observing the following principles:
Authenticate the operators based on the domain (equipment, transmission, or wireless in
each RAT) to which the object belongs and the collection of operation types (addition,
deletion, or modification) of all objects in domains in the scripts. Only users with related
permissions can execute the scripts. Otherwise, the system prompts an authentication
failure.
● The authentication item of incremental .xml scripts is independent from MML commands
and is a combination of the domain to which the object belongs and the operation type of
the object. The authentication item name is in a format of "XML"+"operation type"+"domain
name"+"MO", for example, "XML Add Equipment MO". Similar to the binding authorization
of MML commands, you can perform the following to bind the authentication item with the
operator on the WebLMT:
1. Customize a group command by running the ADD CCG command. By default, the G_1
command group of the NE contains all authentication items.
2. Add an operator by running the ADD OP command. Set a command group for the
operator and then select the customized command group created in the previous step.

Prerequisites
You have logged in to the Web LMT, set up a test cell, and set cell parameters by
running MML commands.
Context
The GSM cell maintenance is conducted in compliance with the 3GPP TS51.021
protocol and applies to preliminary RF counter acceptance in the initial phase of
BTS construction.
Before performing a cell maintenance test, read the following precautions:
● The cell maintenance test does not provide service functions or other
maintenance and test functions. Cells and TRXs in the cell maintenance test
are used only for intermodulation test.
● Before performing the cell maintenance test, ensure that the transmission
between the BTS and BSC is not set up, and the BTS does not have logical
configurations. In this case, the BTS cannot provide services, and cell
maintenance functions are not supported.
● To ensure that the functions of the BTS are normal, activate the BTS using the
BSC after the cell maintenance test is complete.
NOTE
For details about how to set up a compatible testing environment and how to use the
related devices, see the RF testing guides.
Procedure
Step 1 In the LMT main window, click Device Maintenance.
Step 2 In the BTS Maintenance tab, choose BTS Maintenance > GSM Maintenance.
Double-click GSM Cell Maintenance.
Open the GSM cell maintenance browsing window in the Local Maintenance
Terminal dialog box that is displayed.
Step 3 Right-click, choose Logical Site > Create Logical Cell. The Test Flow Name
dialog box is displayed.
Step 4 Specify Logical Cell ID, Local Cell ID, and BSIC.
Step 5 Click OK. In the displayed Input dialog box, specify the logical cell name.
NOTE
By default, the cell name is consistent with the value of Local Cell ID. For example, if the
local cell ID is set to 0, the default cell name is Logical Cell 0. Do not modify the name.
The name is locally saved and becomes the default name after the node is updated.
Step 6 Right-click, choose Logical Cell > Create Logical Trx. The Test Flow Name dialog
box is displayed.
Step 7 Specify Logical Trx ID, TRX Group ID, Power Type(0.1dBm), Static Power Class,
Power trimming value(0.1db), Frequency Hop Mode, Carrier Frequency,
Frequency set from 1 to 64, and Channel Type, and click OK.
NOTE
By default, the logical TRX name must be consistent with Logical Trx ID. For example, if
the logical TRX ID is set to 0, the default TRX name is Logical TRX 0. Do not modify the
name. The name is locally saved and becomes the default name after the node is updated.
Step 8 When Frequency Hop Mode is set to Not hopping, specify Carrier Frequency.
When Frequency Hop Mode is set to Radio Frequency Hopping, specify
Frequency set from 1 to 64. (Separate frequencies with commas.)
Click Import. In the displayed Open dialog box, select the file to be loaded and
click Open. The system automatically parses cell and TRX information in the file
and creates cells and TRXs one by one.
NOTE
Cell and TRX creation fails if the information returned from NEs or the parameter setting
contains incorrect information. In this case, the system automatically deletes all created cells
and TRXs. Users must ensure that all the following conditions are met when using this function:
● The file being loaded is the latest.
● All cells in the file exist on the live network.
● Users have never modified the file.
The scripts cannot be imported when the WebLMT is not in RFTEST mode.
The procedure of data addition and deletion can be simplified. Delete all the established
TRXs before the import, then import all the configured TRXs in the script.
● File verification
The file verification checks whether the data configuration exported using the
MAE-Deployment is complete and correct. Only the completeness is verified,
not the content.
NOTE
There are no fixed relationships between data columns in the script. Data can be queried
by names.
Data of multiple BTSs can be exported to one script file or data of each BTS can be
exported to respective script file. However, the data of one BTS must be exported to the
same script.
When reading the exported logical TRX configuration scripts, the FH mode of
a cell changes into RF HP, and frequencies 1-64 need to be obtained:
– Obtain the FH index of channel 0 configured for the TRX.
– Obtain the frequency sets in the FH group of the BTS.
● Data import
NOTE
– Before importing the data, simply verify the format and content of the file to be
imported to avoid importing an incorrect file.
– The file to be imported supports both Chinese and English characters.
– Identify the data of the BTS using the script.
Check whether the BTS name in the script and GBTS name on the WebLMT (LST
GBTSFUNCTION:GBTSFUNCTIONNAME) are consistent to verify if the data is the data
of this BTS.
● Creation
– Query all the objects of local cell in a file and create them.
– Query all logical TRXs in a file and create them.
– During the creation, stop creating and delete the created cell and TRXs if
the creation fails.
– Parameters of the created cell and TRXs must be consistent with those in
the file.

● This function can be used to quickly locate and resolve problems. Normally
there is no way to avoid that some user data, such as IMSI, will be used
during the troubleshooting. This function provides pseudonymous data
processing.
● You are obligated to take considerable measures in compliance with the laws
of the countries concerned to ensure that personal data is fully protected. For
example, you can enable user identity pseudonymization and delete the
tracing files after the problems are handled.
● UE-specific messages can be traced by CRNC ID, Chain Time, IMSI ID, or
CELL ID.
If UE-specific messages are to be traced by IMSI ID, determine whether the
IMSI data to be entered requires pseudonymous processing by running the
LST USERIDANONSWITCH command and checking the value of User
Identity Pseudonymization Switch in the command output.
– If User Identity Pseudonymization Switch is ON, a pseudonymous IMSI
needs to be entered in IMSI ID.
– If User Identity Pseudonymization Switch is OFF, the IMSI can be
directly entered in IMSI ID.

● High-resolution online frequency scanning scans cell frequencies in current
use for interference, including a small number of frequency sidebands.
Broadband online frequency scanning scans a continuous frequency spectrum
within a certain range, including all frequencies in current use and the
frequency spectrum between the frequencies. Broadband offline frequency
scanning scans the entire frequency spectrum that an RF can work on.
● Before performing MERC FFT frequency scan on an RF module, query the
frequency band range supported by this RF module in a specified mode by
referring to the corresponding "technical specifications" documents. Then, run
the DSP RXBRANCH command to query the band number mapping the
supported frequency band range and perform MERC FFT frequency scan
