Closed Access vs Open
Access
By default, APs are configured for Open Access. Optionally, an AP
may be configured for Closed Access, in which case a list of
allowed IMSIs must be entered into the Access Control List.
To configure an AP for Closed access, set the CSG Access Mode
attribute to Hybrid and the Non CSG UE Access Decision attribute
to Local.
To return an AP to Open access, set the CSG Access Mode
attribute to Open.
Note:
In both cases, the Access Decision Mode attribute must be
set to Legacy.
Access Control List
Entries in the Access Control List are only needed if an AP is
configured for Closed Access. The Access Control List is a white
list of IMSIs that are allowed to use the AP.
Each entry in the Access Control List also has an option to allow
hand-in from the macro network. A UE that is on the white list for
multiple APs can only be Allowed to do this on one AP.
Cell Parameter Selection
Method
Determines whether values for cell parameters such as UARFCN,
LAC, RAC, and CPICH TX Power are selected by Network Listen
(NWL) or are configured via the management system.
The default is configuration by the management system. In this
case, cell parameters should be determined through planning,
preferably informed by on site measurements. This is particularly
appropriate for the enterprise APs, nano3G E8 APs and nano3G
E16 APs and for nano3G S8 APs used in enterprise environments.
Configuration by NWL can be selected for APs that are deployed
for plug-and-play installation by end users - typically only nano3G
S8 APs. In this case, the AP configuration must include extended
LAC/RAC and RF Parameter Candidate Lists. This is so that the
AP can choose the best settings from the candidate lists according
to its RF environment.
IuUP Initialisation
If this attribute is set to TRUE (default value), the AP includes
NO_DATA RFCs as appropriate in IuUP Initialisation frames.If this
attribute is set to FALSE, the HNB omits any NO_DATA RFCs that
would otherwise have been included.
Network Listen Scan Interval
Set the interval for frequency corrections.
Default is 28 days.
1 day for VCTCXO.
Any time for OCXO.
