1.1 Introduction to the OMM System


Basic Composition of the ZXUN PGW System
A complete ZXUN PGW system should be composed of a ZXUN xGW foreground, a Local
Maintenance Terminal (LMT), an MPU board debugging terminal, an local alarm box, and
an EMS OMM server; its networking is as shown in Figure 1-1.

Figure 1-1 Composition of ZXUN PGW

Description to the Operation & Maintenance System


According to the levels of the operation & maintenance system, the LMT, the MPU
debugging terminal, and the alarm box are called the local operation & maintenance
system; the EMS is called the professional operation & maintenance system; and the

SJ-20101008113605-008|2010-12-03(R1.0) ZTE Proprietary and Confidential


ZXUN xGW PGW LMT Opteration Guide

NMS is called the comprehensive operation & maintenance system. The schematic
diagram of the operation & maintenance system is as shown in Figure 1-2.

Figure 1-2 Schematic Diagram of the Operation & Maintenance System

Wherein:
l The MPU debugging terminal undertakes the initialization of the MPU board (including
setting the startup mode of the MPU board, setting the IP address, and loading the
version files), and it performs data configuration on the ZXUN xGW in the method of
command line.
l The LMT undertakes the function such as viewing daily alarms, managing
performance statistics tasks, tracing service signaling, and viewing board status.
l The alarm box is installed locally, prompts alarm information in audible and visible
ways.
l The EMS provides functions such as a centralized topology management, a
centralized log management, a centralized alarm management, a centralized
performance management, a centralized data configuration management, and a
centralized security management, and supports multiple interface protocols including
the CORBA, the FTP, the SNMP, and the TELNET.
l The NMS is higher than the EMS, which is a comprehensive operation & maintenance
system used for the operators to manage the inter-vendor, inter-product, and
inter-area telecom network.

Local Maintenance Terminal


The LMT software is installed on a common Personal Computer (PC), and communicates
to the ZXUN PGW foreground by the communication support program, as shown in Figure
1-3.

6.1 Basic Concepts


6.1.1 Counters
Definition
A counter, which is also called a statistical item, is a variable that calculates the number
of times that a particular service occurs or the number of a particular resource. The
value of the statistical item is related with the measurement object and time quantum.
Without the restriction of measurement objects or time quantum, the statistical item value
is meaningless.

Collection Methods
The performance statistics function is to collect the values of counters on the measurement
objects within a period of time.
There are four collection methods available, listed as follows.
l Cumulative Counter (CC) Collection
A running counter is saved in the tested NE, and it is used to perform cumulative
counting on a kind of events. When each collection cycle starts, the counter will be
reset to a predefined value (generally 0). When the collection cycle ends, the value
of the counter is the valid collection result.
l GAUGE Collection
Measures the dynamic variables that change bidirectionally (increase or decrease),
and these variables should be integers or real numbers. The variable value read when
the collection cycle ends is the valid collection result.
l Discrete Event Registration (DER) Collection
6-1

SJ-20101008113605-008|2010-12-03(R1.0) ZTE Proprietary and Confidential


ZXUN xGW PGW LMT Opteration Guide

DER collection is a measurement method for a group of events related with the
measured attribute. Here, the Nth times of occurrence of one or some specified
events in this group of events will be regarded as the trigger point to drive the
measurement process, and furthermore to form measurement values. The value of
N depends on the occurrence frequency of the specified event(s). The measurement
value of discrete event registration will be reset when each collection cycle starts.
When the collection cycle ends, a valid collection result is given according to the
corresponding measurement value.
l Status Inspection (SI) Collection
Some internal counters for resource management purpose are saved in the tested
NE, and they are constantly read at the preset sampling frequency. The measurement
value of status inspection will be reset when each collection cycle starts. When
the collection cycle ends, a valid collection result is calculated according to all the
sampling values in this cycle.

6.1.2 Collection Granularity


The collection granularity refers to the cycle that the operation & maintenance system
collects data from the ZXUN PGW foreground.
l The collection granularity that can be set on the LMT is 15 minutes.
l The collection granularity that can be set on EMS is generally 5 minutes, 15 minutes,
and 1 hour.

6.2 Logging in to the Performance Management


Prerequisites
l The LMT is connected to the ZXUN PGW foreground properly.
l The ZXUN PGW foreground runs properly.
l You have logged in to the LMT properly.

Context
Performance management collects the daily running performance indices of the ZXUN
xGW system by creating measurement tasks, and provides query and operation functions,
too.
l Query includes querying the counter information, querying dynamic measurement
objects, and querying the performance data sub-function; it provides users with
information of corresponding measurement types, counters, and measurement
objects, and provides a report about the running status of the whole network for
users.
l Operation includes two functions: synchronizing and exporting.

à Synchronizing means to execute the synchronization between the LMT and the
ZXUN PGWforeground, ensuring the data accuracy.

Chapter 6 Performance Statistics and Management

à Exporting means to export the query result as Excel files, which is used for users
to analyze the data.

Steps
• On the Daily Maintenance window, double-click the Performance Management
node to go to the Performance Data View window, as shown in Figure 6-1.

Figure 6-1 Performance Data View

As shown in Figure 6-1, the Manage Tree is on the left pane, which is a relation tree of
the NE location and the measurement object types. It is composed of 4-layer nodes.
l The 1-layer node is the performance management root node, displayed as
Performance Management by default.
l The 2-layer node is the NE type node, which records the NE types managed by
the LMT, displayed as PGW and COMM by default. If the PGW and the SGW are
integrally installed, the SGW still displays.
à PGW
PGW provides the performance measurement types related to PS system.
à COMM
COMM provides the performance measurement types of the CPU/MEM and
ports based on the general equipment.

7.1 Description
Terminologies
l Trace Entity
A trace entity refers to the signaling trace objects, including various users, protocols,
services, and interfaces.

l Trace Task
A trace task means the signaling trace originated to the traced entities. The trace task
can be classified as the system task and the client task; the ZXUN PGW system uses
only the client task.
à System task: a task originated by the system itself.
à Client task: a task originated by the signaling trace client (such as the LMT), it
has the same lifetime with the client. When the client exits, the client task ends
and the trace result is reported to the client which originates this trace.

Basic Functions
Currently in the ZXUN PGW product, the LMT provides signaling trace to the data users.
The signaling trace tasks are created according to the International Mobile Subscriber
Identity (IMSI), Mobile Station International Subscriber Directory Number (MSISDN),
Network Access Identifier (NAI), and LNS IP/LAC IP/VRFID of the common users.

Diameter Link Signaling Trace


Currently in the ZXUN PGW product, the LMT provides signaling trace to the Diameter link,
and the signaling trace is created according to the signaling messages of the Diameter
protocol stack.

Rack ID area shows the rack ID of the ZXUN PGW, starting from rack 0 by default.

l Board Diagram
Board diagram area shows the distribution and slot number of the logical boards
on a ZXUN PGW shelf, wherein, different color blocks indicate the boards at
different status; the number identifies the slot No. of the boards.
l Legend

Legend area shows the correspondence of the color and the alarm level, and the
correspondence of the color and the board operation status.

Warning

When the critical alarms in red color and the faulty boards in red color happen in
the rack chart, handle this as soon as possible, otherwise, the overall service will be
seriously affected.
