4.5.4.2 BTS Working Mode
The BTS Working Mode defines the network ASN-GW architecture and the method
of MS authentication and service provisioning for embedded ASN-GW.
The available options are:
Embedded Distributed ASN-GW Centralized Authentication: The ASN-GW
functionality resides in the BTS (distributed architecture). MS authentication
and services provisioning are managed by a AAA server: MSs (see “MS Menu”
on page 218) cannot be added or deleted, and MS Services (see “MSs Services”
on page 130) are not configurable locally (read-only).
Embedded Distributed ASN-GW Local Authentication: The ASN-GW
functionality resides in the BTS (distributed architecture). MS authentication
and services provisioning are managed by the ASN-GW using local
configuration. The AAA menu (see “AAA” on page 119) is not applicable.
External ASN-GW: The ASN-GW is a separate entity (centralized architecture)
that communicates with the BTS over R6 interface. MS authentication and
services provisioning are managed by a AAA server. MSs (see “MS Menu” on
page 218) cannot be added or deleted. All Services configuration (see “Services
Menu” on page 129) are managed by the external ASN-GW and are not
available to the user. The AAA menu (see “AAA” on page 119) is not applicable.
When changing the BTS Working Mode from Embedded Distributed ASN-GW
Local Authentication to another mode where provisioning is managed by a AAA
server, and vice versa, MSs and MS-Services tables records are erased and all
connections are deleted.
When changing the BTS Working Mode from any Embedded Distributed ASN-GW
mode to External ASN-GW mode all Services tables (see “Services Menu” on
page 129) and AAA servers (see “AAA” on page 119) are erased.
