The Relevant Hardware For Gb Over
FR
 The Gb protocol stack is processed by the UGBI, UEPC, UFEU and
UEPI
 E1 acts as its physical connection that is extended from UEPI
 UFEU performs the Frame Relay function
 UEPC is an optional pinch board that can provide the encryption and
compression function
 UGBI performs the NS, BSSGP, LLC ,SNDCP and GMM/SM functions

Concept of Gb Over FR
 E1
 E1 is the physical cable connecting BSS with SGSN. BSS can connect with
SGSN either directly or through the intermediate FR network.
 BC
 BC is the bearer channel of frame relay, corresponding to the timeslot group of
E1/T1
 The whole E1/T1 line can be either configured as one BC, or divided into multiple
BCs. But it’s better to configure as many timeslots as possible in one BC.
 For easy local management, BCs are distinguished by numbers, which are called
BCID (BC Identification).

NSVC
 NS-VC
 NS-VC is the virtual link provided by NS layer for BSSGP layer
through which NS transmits the data of BSSGP layer
 NS-VC is identified by NS-VCI, which is unique in SGSN
 NS-VC in SGSN corresponds to NS-VC in BSS one by one, and

their IDs are the same

Concept Of Gb Over FR
 PVC
 PVC refers to the permanent virtual connection of the frame
relay.
 In one BC, a PVC is differentiated from others by its number,

which is called DLCI (Data Link Connection ID).
 In SGSN9810, each NSVC link is corresponding to one FR link.

 The command “ADD NSVC “ is used to add a NSVC link and FR
link simultaneously.

NSE
 NSE
 Network service entity (NSE) is identified by NSEI, its ID must
as same as the PCU configuration.
 NSE manages a group of NS-VCs, and corresponding a group

of cells.
 The Sub-network layer can be realized by FR protocol or IP link.

BVC
 BVC
 BSSGP virtual connection is used in the BSSGP layer.
 There are three kinds of BVC: Sig (signaling) BVC, PTP (point
to point) BVC and PTM (point to multipoint) BVC

Network Service Entities

BVC = BVCI + NSEI

Relationship Between BVC,CELL And
NSE
 Cells correspond to PTP BVCs one by one. One cell is only
subordinating to one NSE, but one NSE include multiple
CELLs
 A Sig BVC manages a group of cells in a NSE. NSE and

Sig BVC is one to one correspondence. So one Sig BVC
manages multi PTP BVC

The Relevant Hardware For Gb Over IP
 The Gb protocol stack is processed by the UGBI.
 The UFEU and UEPI need not configure in case Gb over

IP
 The UDP and IP layer are realized by UGFU board.
 The UPIU and it’s pinch board UEEC or UEFC provide the
physical port for Gb interface to connect with PCU.

Concept Of Gb Over IP
 IPNSVC:
 In the Gb over IP network, each NS-VC link is identified by a
quaternary group including the following:
 1 IP address of the SGSN
 2 UDP port number of the SGSN
 3 IP address of the BSS
 4 UDP port number of the BSS

Step 1: Add UGBI Board
 ADD BRD
 This command is used to add UGBI boards
 If it is Gb over IP, the UFEU and UEPI need not be configured
 Example
SPEC=B;

SPEC=B;
 ADD BRD: SRN=0, SN=2, BP=IO, BT=UGBI, RS=STANDBY,

SPEC=B;

Step 2: Add UGFU Board
 ADD BRD
 This command is used to add UGFU and the related boards，
for Gb IP data forwarding.
 This boards should be configured when configure Gn interface
 The IP address configured in this command is the IP address of

Iu interface and Gn interface. For the IP address of Gb, will be
configured by ADD BRDIP command.

Step 3: Set Work Mode
 SET UPIU_PORT
 Ethernet port of UPIU board can work in 1+1 mode or internal UGFU
communication mode
 In this case, 1+1 mode should be chosen for these two Ethernet ports
 Example
 SET UPIU_PORT: MSRN=3, MSN=10, MPN=1, SSN=11, SPN=1, PT=EETH,
WM=MS, ND=TRUE;
 SET UPIU_PORT: MSRN=3, MSN=12, MPN=1, SSN=13, SPN=1, PT=EETH,
WM=MS, ND=TRUE;
– WM
~ MS master and slave mode
~ UC internal communication mode

Step 4:Configure Public IP Segment Of
UPIU
 ADD PUBNWIP
 This command is used to configure the public network IP for
UPIU that make the IP of UPIU can be in the same subnetwork
 Example
 ADD PUBNWIP: IP="10.30.30.0", MSK="255.255.255.0";
– IP
Router
~ Public network segment
Same subnetwork
UPIU
UPIU
Step 5:Configure IP Address Of UPIU
 ADD IFIP
 This command is used to configure the IP for UPIU
 Example
 ADD IFIP: SRN=3, SN=10, PN=1, IP="10.30.30.1",
MSK="255.255.255.0", DESC="For Gb";
 ADD IFIP: SRN=3, SN=12, PN=1, IP="10.30.30.2",

MSK="255.255.255.0", DESC="For Gb";
– IP
~ IP address of UPIU physical Port

Step 6:Configure IP Route
 ADD IPRT
 This command is used to configure the IP route for UPIU
 Example
 ADD IPRT: IP=“10.0.0.0", MSK=“255.0.0.0", GATE="10.30.30.3";
– GATE
~ The router’s IP address

Step 7:Configure Gb’s IP Address
 ADD BRDIP
 This command is used to configure the IP address for Gb

interface
 Example
 ADD BRDIP: SRN=3, SN=10, IPT=IPV4, IPV4="10.10.10.1";
 ADD BRDIP: SRN=3, SN=12, IPT=IPV4, IPV4="10.10.11.2";

– IPV4
~ It is a logical IP configured in UGFU board
~ It is the IP address of Gb over IP
PCU
DATA UGFU IP PCU IP
DATA PCU IP UGFU IP PCU

Step 8:Configure IPVLNK
 ADD IPVLNK
 This command is used to configure IPVLNK to binding a UGBI
board with a UGFU board.
 After the binding, all packet data of a specific UGBI board will
process and forward by the corresponding UGFU board.
 Example – IPVLINK for UGBI (0/0)

 ADD IPVLNK: HSRN=3, HSN=10, IPT=IPV4, IPV4="10.10.10.1",
PT=UDP, LPN=3344, SVT=GB, SSRN=0, SSN=0;


Step 8:Configure IPVLNK
 ADD IPVLNK
 Example – IPVLINK for UGBI (0/1)

– IPV4
~ The IP address of UGFU
~ This IPVLNK is identified by (IP, Port, Slot of UGBI)

Step 9:Configure IP NSVC
 ADD IPNSVC:
 This command is used to add a NSVC link
 The link is identified by vector

 (SGSN IP, Port; PCU IP, Port)
 We can configure several IP NSVC for one NSE.

 ADD IPNSVC:
 Example – configure 4 NSVC to PCU1
 ADD IPNSVC: OTHERNODE="TO bss1", NSVCI=11, NSEI=1, SRN=0, SN=0,
IPT=IPV4, LIPV4="10.10.10.1", LUP=3344, RIPV4="10.20.20.1", RUP=3322;

 ADD IPNSVC:
 Example – configure 4 NSVC to PCU2

Step 10:Configure Load Weight
 ADD GBIPEWEIGHT :
 This command is used to configure weigh for each PCU
 The load weight is based on the IP endpoint, not the NSVC
 Example – configure the weight for PCU 1
 ADD GBIPEWEIGHT: IPT=IPV4, RIPV4="10.20.20.1", RUP=3322,
NSEI=1, DW=200, SW=200;
NSEI=1, DW=100, SW=100;
DW=200 DW=100
SW=200 SW=100

Step 10:Configure Load Weight
 ADD GBIPEWEIGHT :
 Example – configure the weight for PCU 2
NSEI=2, DW=200, SW=200;

NSEI=2, DW=100, SW=100;
– RIPV4/RUP
– DW
– SW

Step 11:Configure NSE
 ADD NSE:
 This command is used to add a NSE
 Each NSE contain several NSVC link
 Example – add a NSE for PCU 1
 ADD NSE: OTHERNODE="TO bss1", NSEI=1, SRN=0, SN=0, BSSID=1,
BT=IP ;
 Example – add a NSE for PCU 2
 ADD NSE: OTHERNODE="TO bss2", NSEI=2, SRN=0, SN=1, BSSID=2,
BT=IP;
– NSE
– BT
