Icon Meaning Description
Synchronization
processing
The M2000 extracts the NE configuration from the NE. The
data is synchronized when the NE is connected or reconnected
to the M2000.
Connection
down
The M2000 server is disconnected with the NE.
The O&M (operation and maintenance) path between the NE
and the M2000 does not work smoothly, or errors occur to
some TCP or UDP ports.

between the equipment in the form of view and tree. It also provides entry points for the
operations related to the configuration, alarm, and performance management through the
client.
The M2000 topology view consists of two parts: tree and view.
The navigation tree on the left shows all the involved topology objects, such as NEs,
subnets, and the hierarchical architecture between these objects.
The topology view on the right shows all the topology objects in the current network and
the location-related relationship between these objects.
The system synchronizes the navigation tree and the topology view automatically.
Examples
The displayed window after you log in the M2000 client is a topology view.
Examples
Some examples of NEs are as follows:
M2000
Operator Guide 4 Topology Management
Issue 02 (2006-10-31) Huawei Technologies Proprietary 4-3
Huawei BTS3812A sets up a physical connection with the M2000; thus it is a physical
NE.
The third-party equipment MOTOROLA HLR is a virtual NE.
The M2000 itself is a special NE. The M2000 is displayed as OMC in the topology view.
4.1.3 Subnets
Meaning
To manage NEs more efficiently, the huge M2000 network can be divided into several smaller
networks based on certain principles, such as by region. These smaller networks are called
subnets in the topology.
Examples
An example of subnets is as follows:
If the M2000 can manage all the NEs in the provinces A, B and C, these NEs can be divided
into three subnets by region (herein province).
The three subnets can also be divided into smaller subnets by city or county. In other words, a
subnet can be nested in another subnet.
Examples
Some examples of group NEs are as follows:
An RNC is a group NE. It manages NodeB NEs.
An MSC Server is a group NE. It manages MGW NEs.
4.1.5 Links
Meaning
The topology view uses links to identify the physical or logical connections between the
communication equipment. There are two types of links, physical and virtual, as shown in
Table 4-1.

It refers to the signaling connections between two physical NEs.
M2000 supports six types of physical links: MTP3, MTP3B, DATALINK,
M3UA, H248, and BICCSCTP.
MTP3
MTP3B
MTP3 and MTP3B can only be created manually.
The NE at one side of the link must be a physical MGW.
The NE at the other side of the link can be a physical MSC
Server, or a virtual RNC or MSC Server.
DATALINK
M3UA
H248
Physical
link
BICCSCTP
These three types are created by the system automatically.
DATALINK links can be created between a physical CG and
a physical GGSN80 or SGSN.
H248 and M3UA links can only be created between a
physical MGW and MSC Server.
BICCSCTP links can only be created between a physical
MSC Server.
Virtual
link
Virtual link refers to the logical communication connections between two
NEs.
Virtual links can only be created manually. You can modify or delete virtual
links.
Examples
Some examples of the links are as follows:
The links between physical MGW and virtual MSC Server are physical links created by
the manually.
The links between virtual MSC Server and virtual HLR are virtual links created
manually.
Examples
Some examples of topology objects are as follows:
Huawei communication equipment BTS3812 that communicates with the M2000 is a
topological object.

Common Counter
Common counters refer to key default counters defined for an NE. The NE periodically
reports the measurement results of all these counters to the M2000, and the M2000 saves the
results to the performance database for future queries.
You cannot add, modify, or delete KPIs.
Extended Counter
Extended counters are also default counters defined for an NE. The NE reports results of all
the extended counters to the M2000. The M2000 saves the results to the performance database
based on the settings on the M2000 client.
During the M2000 operation, you can select or clear extended counters.
When you select an extended counter, the measurement results of the extended counter
are saved to the M2000 performance database for future queries.
When you clear an extended counter, the M2000 does not save the measurement results
of the extended counter to the performance database.
User-Defined Counter
User defined counters refer to those defined on the M2000 client.
The system defines the user defined counters by adding, subtracting, multiplying, and
dividing the system default counters (both common counters and extended counters). You can
add, modify, or delete the user-defined counter during the M2000 operation.
The measurement results of the user-defined counters are not stored in the M2000 database.
When you query these results, the M2000 calculates the results through the set formula and
then displays the results through the client.

You must select class 2 objects before you start a performance measurement. The M2000
delivers the selected objects to the NE, and the NE reports the results of measurement
counters of these objects to the M2000.
By default, no class 2 objects are selected, and no results are reported.
You can select class 2 objects, such as a board in the SGSN system, in the Object Setting

When a measurement period ends, the counters of an NE, both common counters and
specified extended counters, start to be measured. The NE collects the measurement results,
that is, the performance data, and reports the results to the M2000. After the mediation layer
in the M2000 server analyzes the received results, the performance server saves the results to
the performance database.
The M2000 controls the number of the received performance results. An alarm is generated
when the M2000 detects that more than the specified number of results are received.

The server version is higher than the client version, for example, the server version is
C02B022SP01 and the client version is C02B022.
Handling Suggestions
Uninstall the existing client, and install the client with the correct version. For details, see the
M2000 Software Installation Manual or M2000 HA System Software Installation Manual.
Possible Causes
The possible causes include:
You are forced to exit the M2000 client.
The user with the operation privileges, such as the M2000 administrator, can force you to
exit the M2000 client. The M2000 client prompts a message before your exit.
You change the time of the current M2000 client.
In this case, the M2000 client does not prompt any message before your exit.
Handling Suggestions
Handle the fault in either of the following ways:
Contact the M2000 administrator for the operation privilege.
Do not change the time of the current M2000 client during the M2000 operation. Exit the
M2000 client before you change the time.
Possible Causes
The possible causes include:
The computer is short of memory.
The M2000 client operation requires a memory of 256 MB. When the system runs short
of memory, the M2000 client prompts "out of memory."
Errors occur when you install the M2000 client.

Handling Suggestions
Handle the fault in either of the following ways:
Avoid starting several M2000 clients on the same terminal.
Quit other programs irrelevant to the M2000 client on the terminal.
Uninstall the existing M2000 client, and install a new one.
Possible Causes
The configuration file is incorrect.
Handling Suggestions
Uninstall the existing M2000 client, and install a new one.
Possible Causes
The M2000 uses the event mechanism of CORBA to check whether the communication
between the M2000 client and the M2000 server is functioning well. A CORBA event is
called in a different way from a common CORBA request. For a common request, the client
initiates a connection and sends the request to the server. The server responds to the client
using the same connection; however, for a CORBA event, when the client initiates a
subscription request, the server sets up a new connection with the client and sends the event to
the client using this new connection. Therefore, such a fault results from the failure in setting
up a connection from the server to the client. The possible causes are as follows:

M2000
Operator Guide

You are using dual IP addresses of the client.
The client monitors either of the IP addresses. Therefore, sometimes the client connects
to the server normally, sometimes does not.
You are using a firewall.
Handling Suggestions
If
you set dual client IP addresses, change the settings on the client as follows.
Open default.xml in \lib\openorb\config, and then find the following information.
<!-- properties controlling the incomming server side. -->
<property name="listenAddress" value="0.0.0.0">
<description>
Address to listen on on multi-homed host. Defaults to 0.0.0.0,
all local addresses.
</description>
</property>
<property name="port" value="53100">
<description>
Port for the iiop transport to listen on. Defaults to 0, any
available port.<p/>
Command line alias Port is available.
</description>
</property>
Change the value of listenAddress to a client IP address that you can ping successfully from
the server. In addition, you can use this IP address to connect to the port 53100 by Telnet.
If you use a firewall, change the settings as follows.
On the firewall, open port 53100 from the server to the client IP address. The IP address
and the port must be consistent with those set in the configuration file on the client.
Possible Causes
Multiple IP addresses are configured for the PC serving as the client.
Handling Suggestions
In this case, specify the IP address for communications before logging in to the M2000 server.

This is normal. No operation is necessary.
Possible Causes
The phone number is incorrect. The phone number must begin with the country code, for
example, 861361234***1, where 86 is the country code of the Peoples Republic of China
(PRC).
In some countries or districts, however, the phone number must not begin with the country
code, for example, the Unite Arab Emirates (UAE).
Handling Suggestions
Enter the correct phone number in Remote notify detail settings.
Possible Causes
It takes about six seconds for an SMS to reach the receiver. Therefore, the M2000 can send a
maximum of 10 SMSs in one minute. The delay occurs when too many alarms are generated.
Handling Suggestions
In the Remote Notify tab of Fault Service Settings, select fewer types of alarms to send by
SMS. Ensure that only alarms with the highest priority are sent to the mobile phone through
the SMS.
Possible Causes
The NE reporting the alarm has been deleted from the M2000.
