Other Attributes
The following table shows some other attributes to consider for initial AP configuration.
Apart from the static neighbour lists, which are usually configured individually, any of these
can be in a general template for all APs or can be set individually.
Also see the Cell Broadcast parameters.
Parameter Notes
Neighbour List Population This determines how the live neighbour list is populated. For
enterprise and SOHO deployments, the recommended setting is
STATIC_ONLY, which only uses neighbours entered in the static
neighbour lists, as determined by network planning. For residential
deployments, the recommended setting is
MERGE_STSTIC_AND_DETECTED, so that neighbours can be
determined by Network Listen as well as network planning.
Static neighbour lists, GSM and
UMTS
These are complex attribute that specify GSM (2G) and UMTS
(3G) neighbour candidates. It is recommended to enter these
directly in the NOS Client. However, if a similar list has already
been configured for a nearby AP, it may be advantageous to copy
this attribute from a configuration file saved from the nearby AP,
load this into the target AP and then make suitable adjustments
from the NOS Client.
See [OPM_300] for neighbour list configuration
Note: In the static neighbour list, the list must be ordered by "best
first" to ensure optimal reselection and handover.
Neighbour PLMNs If specified, this restricts the networks that neighbouring cells can
belong to for populating the neighbour lists by specifying the
MCC/MNC values.
PLMNs To Sync With If specified, this restricts the networks that nearby cells can belong
to for frequency synchronisation by specifying the MCC/MNC
values.
PM Reporting URL For reporting performance measurements to the PMS on the NOS.
Diagnostic Reporting URL Set the URL of the NOS Server diagnostics service. Replace
oam.server with the IP address or FQDN of the server.
reportingUrl Set the URL of the NOS Server measurement reporting service.
Replace oam.server with the IP address or FQDN of the server.
localTimeZone Set the timezone, in POSIX format, where the APs are located.
This assumes that all APs on the same AC are in the same
timezone, which is the most probable scenario. If APs are spread
across several timezones, this can be an AP-specific setting.
psHandoverEnabled Whether or not PS RABs will handover between an AP and the
macro network. This is disabled (false) by default.
Oscillator Synchronisation
Timeout
The number of days an AP can go without resynchronisation
before it raises the relevant alarm.
