Figure 1: 4G LTE Packet Core Network Architecture

The Serving Gateway (SGW) routes and forwards user data packets, while also acting as themobility anchor for the user plane, and is the anchor for mobility between LTE and other 3GPPtechnologies. The Packet Data Network (PDN) Gateway (PGW) provides connectivity from theUser Equipment (UE) to external packet data networks by being the point of exit and entry oftraffic for the UE.

A UE may have simultaneous connectivity with more than one PGW for accessing multiplePDNs. The PGW performs policy enforcement, packet filtering for each user, charging support,lawful interception, and packet screening. Another key role of the PGW is to act as the anchorfor mobility between 3GPP and non-3GPP technologies such as WiMAX and 3GPP2 (CDMA1X and EvDO).

The System Architecture Evolution GW (SAE GW) is the entity that covers the PGW and SGWfunctionality in the Evolved Packet Core (EPC).

Gateways

The Radio Network Controller (RNC) is responsible for controlling the Radio Access Network(RAN) that are connected to it. The RNC carries out radio resource management and some ofthe mobility management functions and is the point where encryption is done before user data issent to and from the mobile. The RNC connects to the Circuit-Switched Core Network throughthe Media Gateway (MGW).

Prerequisites for Configuring Cisco 4G LTE Advanced• If the signal is not good at the router, use the Cisco offered antenna accessories and extension cables toplace the antenna away from router in a better coverage area.

• You must have 4G LTE network coverage where your router is physically placed. For a complete list ofsupported carriers.

• You must subscribe to a service plan with a wireless service provider and obtain a Subscriber IdentityModule (SIM) card. Only micro SIM is supported.

• You must install the SIM card before configuring the 4G LTE or Cisco C1100 series router.

• The standalone antenna that supports GPS capabilities must be installed for the GPS feature to work.See theCisco 4G Indoor/OutdoorActiveGPSAntenna (GPS-ACT-ANTM-SMA) document for installationinformation.

Restrictions for Configuring Cisco 4G LTE Advanced• Currently, cellular networks support only user initiated bearer establishment.

• Due to the shared nature of wireless communications, the experienced throughput varies depending onthe number of active users or congestion in a given network.

• Cellular networks have higher latency compared towired networks. Latency rates depend on the technologyand carrier. Latency also depends on the signal conditions and can be higher because of networkcongestion.

• CDMA-EVDO, CDMA-1xRTT, and GPRS technology modes are not supported.

• Any restrictions that are part of the terms of service from your carrier.

• SMS—Only one text message up to 160 characters to one recipient at a time is supported. Larger textsare automatically truncated to the proper size before being sent.

• It is strongly recommended that you configure SNMP V3 with authentication/privacy.

Features not Supported in 4G LTE AdvancedThe following features are not supported on Cisco 4G LTE Advanced C1100 Series ISR, when compared toClassic IOS:

An Active GPS antenna includes a built-in Low-Noise Amplifier that providessufficient gain to overcome coaxial cable losses while providing the proper signal level to the GPS receiver.Active GPS antennae require power from the GPS receiver SMA port to operate. See the Example: Connectingto a Server Hosting a GPS Application, on page 6 for more information.

National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) streams GPS data either from a 4G LTE through a virtualCOM port and a TCP/IP Ethernet connection to any marine device (such as a Windows-based PC) that runsa commercially available GPS-based application.

The following GPS and NMEA features are supported on the Cisco 4G LTE-Advanced:

• GPS standalone mode (satellite-based GPS)

• Cisco IOS CLI display coordinates.

• External application displays router map location

• Objects in the CISCO-WAN-3G-MIB supports GPS and NMEA features

• The Cisco 4G LTE-Advanced only support NMEA over IP and uses show commands in the platform

Assisted GPS mode is not supported.Note

For instructions on setting up the GPS antenna, see the Cisco 4G Indoor/Outdoor Active GPS Antenna(GPS-ACT-ANTM-SMA) document.

Example: Connecting to a Server Hosting a GPS ApplicationYou can feed the NMEA data to a remote server that hosts the GPS application. The server can be connectedto the router either directly using an Ethernet cable or through a LAN or WAN network. If the applicationsupports serial port, run a serial port emulation program to create a virtual serial port over the LAN or WANconnection.

Microsoft Streets & Trips is a licensed software that you can download from the Microsoft website.Note

To connect a Cisco 4G LTE-Advanced through IP to a PC running Microsoft Streets & Trips, perform thefollowing steps:

1. Connect the PC to the router using an Ethernet cable.

2. Ensure that the PC and router can ping.

3. Launch the serial port redirector on the PC.

4. Create a virtual serial port that connects to the NMEA port on the router.

5. Launch Microsoft Streets & Trips on your PC.

6. Select the GPS Menu.

7. Click Start Tracking.

8. If you have acquired a location fix from the show cellular 0/2/0 gps command output on the router, thecurrent location is plotted on the graph, and a reddish brown dotted cursor with a circle around it is seenon the map.

If you have not acquired a location fix, the Microsoft application times out and disconnects.Note

Dual SIM CardSIM card primary slot is selected when router boots up or when NIM reloads. The default slot is 0. If SIMcard is not present in the primary slot, select the alternative slot if SIM card is present.controller cellular 0/2/0lte sim primary slot <slot#>

If the active SIM card loses connectivity to the network a failover to the alternative SIM card slot occurs.

By default the failover timer is two minutes. The failover timer can be set from 1 to 7 minutes.controller cellular 0/2/0lte failovertimer <3-7>

You can also manually switch the SIM slot via the command line interface.cellular 0/2/0 lte sim activate slot <0-1>

Auto SIMThe Auto SIM feature detects the SIM and loads the corresponding firmware. For example, if a Verizon SIMis detected, the modem loads the Verizon firmware. If you switch the SIM to an ATT SIM, the modem willload ATT firmware.

When Auto-SIM is enabled, it is said to be in Auto-SIM mode and when disabled, it is known as Manualmode. In Auto-SIM mode, the modem selects the right carrier firmware from the list of firmware's available.When in manual mode, you can select the firmware manually. Modem resets every time you make a configchange from Auto-SIM enabled to disabled or vice-versa.

Auto SIM is always enabled by default.Note

Using a SIM CardCisco 4G LTE-Advanced needs an active SIM card provided by a service provider. The SIM cards are usuallyprovided in an unlocked state so that it can be used without a Personal Identification Number (PIN). If theSIM is unlocked, it can be inserted into a 4G LTE-Advanced and used without an authorization code.

The SIM can be initially locked with a PIN code (4 to 8 digits s long) defined by the service provider. Contactyour service provider for the PIN code.

The SIM-Lock feature allows a SIM to be locked or unlocked with a PIN code so that it is used only in anauthorized device. Perform the SIM lock and unlock procedures using the Cisco IOS CLI through a consoleor Telnet/SSH to the ISR.

After the SIM is locked, it cannot initiate a call unless authentication is done using the same PIN. Authenticationis done automatically by Cisco IOS through configuration of the PIN. This mandatory configuration forautomatic SIM authentication is done using the Cisco IOS CLI as part of the router startup configuration.

Page 9: Cisco Fourth-Generation LTE Advanced on Cisco 1000 Series ... · •NeMo •PublicLandMobileNetwork(PLMN)selection •IPv6 •MultiplePDN •LTELinkRecovery ... Device(config-controller)#

After the Cisco IOS configuration is in place, the ISR can initiate an LTE connection. The ISR uses theconfigured PIN to authenticate prior to the LTE connection. If the Cisco IOS PIN configuration is missing orif the PIN is incorrect, the SIM authentication will fail and the connection will not be initiated.

If the locked SIM is moved to a different ISR or to another device, or if the 4G LTE-Advanced in which thelocked SIM resides is moved to a different 4G LTE-Advanced slot in the same ISR, the ISR configurationshould be changed. The configuration is associated with the cellular controller that is specific to an ISR 4GLTE-Advanced slot number. This will ensure that the SIM card will not be used in any unauthorized device,or, if there are multiple 4G LTE-Advanced in a single ISR, that the appropriate PIN is applied to each 4GLTE-Advanced SIM. An authentication command (with the same PIN used to lock the SIM) must be definedon the new device or on the new cellular controller slot to successfully initiate the LTE connection.

The following procedures are used to configure a SIM:

It is very important to use the correct PIN after it is configured. The SIM card will be blocked if the wrongPIN is entered three consecutive times on a locked SIM during authentication or when trying to unlock alocked SIM. You can unblock a blocked SIM card using the PUK code. Contact your service provider for thePUK code. Use the cellular <slot> lte sim unblock <PUK code> <new PIN code> command to unblock theSIM.

Caution

Changing the PINEnsure to enter the correct PIN, the SIM card gets blocked if the wrong PIN is entered three consecutive times.

Short Message Service (SMS) CapabilitiesCisco 4G LTE-Advanced support receiving, transmitting, archiving, and deleting of SMS messages. Thissupport includes the ability to view up to 25 received texts, and archive more messages in a custom filelocation. SMS is supported on multiple carriers. Cisco 4G LTE-Advanced also have the capability to revertfrom LTE SMS to 3G and 2G SMS technology if necessary.

A sending device behind a Cisco 4G LTE-Advanced transmits an SMS text message over the 4G cellular linkthrough cellular towers until it the message reaches the recipient’s router, which then notifies the recipientdevice, such as a cell phone. The receiving device uses the same process to return a reply to the sending device.The following figure describes the flow from a mobile device to a sending device. For SMS transmission towork, end users must have a text-capable device, and optionally, a text plan. If end users do not have a textplan, standard SMS rates apply to their text transmissions.

The following tasks are used to verify the signal strength and service availability of the modem and to create,modify, and delete modem data profiles:

IP Multimedia Subsystem ProfilesIP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) profiles establish a session, and are a part of the modem configuration andare stored in the modem's NVRAM. An IMS network is an access-independent and standard-based IPconnectivity service that enables different types of multimedia services to end users using commonInternet-based protocols.

Guidelines for Creating, Modifying, or Deleting Modem Data ProfilesCustomized profiles (Access Point Name(APN) in mobile networks) can be created and used on Cisco 4GLTE Advanced SKU's. Maximum number of profiles that can be created are 16.

Cisco SKU's shipping with specific carrier provisioning file (Can be found in Carrier label under "showcellular <slot> hardware"), default profiles are already populated and can be deployed readily.

In all other cases where profile configurations are not available, separate profiles should be created withrequired parameters.

You can create multiple profiles on Cisco 4G LTE Advanced. The following are the default internet profilenumbers for the modems:

Profile NumberModem

Profile 1EM7430

Both Profile 1 and Profile 3EM7455 (Verizon or Sprint)

Profile 1EM7455 (AT&T or other SP's)

Cisco Fourth-Generation LTE Advanced on Cisco 1000 Series Integrated Services RouterGuidelines for Creating, Modifying, or Deleting Modem Data Profiles

Page 17: Cisco Fourth-Generation LTE Advanced on Cisco 1000 Series ... · •NeMo •PublicLandMobileNetwork(PLMN)selection •IPv6 •MultiplePDN •LTELinkRecovery ... Device(config-controller)#

Follow these guidelines when you configure a data profile using EXEC mode or Config mode :

• You do not have to make any profile-related changes if your modem comes with a data profile, forinstance, AT&T, Sprint and Verizon.

• If any profile parameter changes are required for a connection type, the changes will likely be carriedout in the default profiles.

• To configure different profile types and use them for a different connection, you can create separateprofiles with different parameters (for instance, APN names). Note that only one profile is active at agiven time.

• Use the show cellular <unit> profile command to view the data profile. An asterisk(*) symbol isdisplayed against the data profile. Double asterisk(**) symbol is displayed against the attach profile.

• The data profile is used to set up a data call. If you want to use a different profile, that profile needs tobe made the default one. Use the lte sim data-profile number command to change the default profileunder controller cellular 0/2/0.

Creating, Modifying, or Deleting Data Profiles Using EXEC ModeCustomized profiles (Access Point Name(APN) in mobile networks) can be created and used on Cisco 4GLTE Advanced SKU's. Maximum number of profiles that can be created are 16.

Multiple PDN ContextsThis feature enables router to connect to multiple (currently two) packet data networks. This allows users toenable different features independently on each PDN. For instance, the first PDN can be used for publicInternet access and the second one for VPN connectivity; each PDN has its own set of IP addresses and QoScharacteristics.

During the initialization of the router, two cellular interfaces corresponding to the two PDNs are created:

cellular 0/2/0 and cellular 0/2/1

These interfaces can be viewed as two logical interfaces using the same radio resources.

The interface cellular 0/2/0 is referred as the first PDN, and cellular 0/2/1 as the second PDN.

To bring up the two PDNs, configuration needs to be applied on both the cellular interfaces in order to maketwo simultaneous data calls. The next step is to associate the data-bearer profile with its corresponding cellularinterface or PDN. It is sufficient to associate the profile for just the first PDN under the controller cellularconfiguration. Note that the second PDN assumes a profile that is just one above the profile used for the firstPDN. For example, if the first PDN uses profile 1, the second PDN uses profile 2 automatically when the callis initiated for the second one.

After the interesting traffic is routed through these cellular interfaces, data calls are initiated and each interfaceis assigned its own IP and DNS addresses provided by the cellular network.

Both PDNs share radio resources. Therefore, any throughput measurement needs to take into account theaggregate throughput on both PDNs, instead of just one.

Configuring Modem DM Log CollectionDiagnostic Monitor (DM) Log is a modem's feature that captures data transactions between the modem andthe network over the radio frequency interface. This feature is a useful tool for troubleshooting 3G and 4Gdata connectivity or performance issues.

Once a DM log file is captured, diagnostic software tools, such as Sierra Wireless SwiLog and QualcommQXDM, can be used to decode the DM log file to understand the issues. A member of Cisco TAC can helpwith decoding the DM log files.

To configure DM log collection, enter the following commands, starting in privileged EXEC mode.

Enabling Modem Crashdump CollectionModem crashdump collection is useful in debugging firmware crash. To collect crash data, the modem hasto be pre-configured so that it will stay in memdump mode after a crash. Memdump mode is a specialboot-and-hold mode for the memdump utility to collect crash data.

For earlier releases, the crashdump collection required the PC to be connected to the router using a USB cableor a special RJ45-USB cable on a non-HSPA+7 3G module.

As part of the 3G and 4G serviceability enhancement, the crashdump collection utility is integrated into CiscoIOS.

To enable modem crashdump collection, perform the following steps.

The integrated modem crashdump collection feature is supported only on 3G HSPA and 4G LTE Advancedbased SKUs.

Note

Before you begin

Ensure that the following prerequisites are met before attempting to enable crashdump logging:

• The modem needs to be provisioned for modem crashdump collection. Contact Cisco TAC for details.• The modem should be in crash state. Run tests that will result in modem firmware crash. A“MODEM_DOWN” message on the router console or syslog is indicative of modem firmware crash.

After the modem firmware crashes, the modem is available for crashdump log collection only. Data callscannot be made.

Note

Procedure

PurposeCommand or Action

Enables or disables modem crashdumpcollection.

Displaying Modem Log Error and Dump InformationAs part of the 3G serviceability enhancement, commands strings (at!err and at!gcdump) can be sent to themodem using Cisco IOS CLI rather than setting up a reverse telnet session to the cellular modem to obtainlog error and dump information.

To obtain log error and dump information, perform the following steps.

The modem log error and dump collection feature is supported only on 3G SKUs.Note

Procedure

PurposeCommand or Action

Showsmodem log error and dump information.show cellular unit log error

Example:

Step 1

Router# show cellular 0/2/0 log error

(Optional) Clears out the error and dumpregisters. By default, error and dump registers

test cellular unit modem-error-clear

Example:

Step 2

are not cleared out after a read. This command

Router# test cellular 0/2/0modem-error-clear

changes the operation so that registers arecleared once they are read. As a result, the ATcommand strings are changed to “at!errclr=–1”for CDMA and “at!err=0” for GSM modems.

Cellular Modem Link Recovery ParametersThere are four configurable parameters to adjust the behavior of cellular link recovery. The default valuesoptimized for the best performance of the feature and changing it is not recommended unless advised by Cisco.

The following table explains the link recovery parameters.:

Table 3: Link Recovery Parameters

DescriptionParameter

This parameter defines the RSSI value below whichthe link recovery feature triggers additional scrutinyto look for potential issues and take action if needed.The range of this parameter can be set from -90 dBmto -125 dBm. The recommended and default value is-110 dBm.

rssi onset-threshold

This parameter determines how often link recoverylooks for potential issues. The default value for thisparameter is 20 seconds meaning that link recoveryfeature will be triggered every 20 seconds and lookat certain parameters to determine if there is a potentialissue. You can configure the monitor-timer rangebetween 20 to 60 seconds. Increasing the monitortimer value above 20 seconds will increase theresponse time of the feature.

monitor-timer

The wait-timer parameter is used in conjunction withthe debounce-count parameter to perform morefrequent, additional checks, once the link recoveryfeature has identified a potential issue that needs tobe recovered from, with a modem power-cycle. Thedefault value for wait-timer is 10 seconds and thedefault value for debounce- count is 6. With thissetting, once link recovery has identified aninoperativemodem state, it performs additional checksevery 10 seconds, up to 6 times, to determine if theissue has been resolvedwithout amodem power-cycle.Reducing the debounce-count and the wait-timermakes faster link recovery, while reducing them mayincrease the time for recovery. The configurable rangefor wait-timer is 5-60 seconds. The configurable rangefor debounce-count is 6-20 seconds.

When the cellular modem link recovery occurs and modem is power cycled, you can see the%CELLWAN-2-MODEM_DOWN message on the console logs and additionally there is a%CELLWAN-2-LINK_RECOVERY message which indicates that action has been taken by the cellularmodem link recovery feature.

Whenever the cellular modem link recovery has occurred, it updates the Modem timeouts counter under theModemManagement Statistics section of the show controller cellular unit command output.Modem parametersat the last timeout section has information that helps to identify the cause of the issue that triggered linkrecovery

In the following example log, the messages, modem time out counter, and modem parameters at the last timeout are highlighted.

Verifying Data Call SetupTo verify the data call setup, follow these steps:

1. After you create a modem data profile using the cellular profile create command and configuring DDRon the cellular interface, send a ping from the router to a host across the wireless network.

2. If the ping fails, debug the failure by using the following debug and show commands:

3. debug chat

4. debug modem

5. debug dialer

6. show cellular all

7. show controller cell0/2/0

8. show interface cellular

9. show running-config

10. show ip route

11. show platform

12. Save the output from these commands and contact your system administrator.

Checking Signal StrengthIf the Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) level is very low (for example, if it is less than –110 dBm),follow these steps:

Procedure

PurposeCommand or Action

Check the antenna connection. Make sure theTNC connector is correctly threaded andtightened.

Step 1

If you are using a remote antenna, move theantenna cradle and check if the RSSI hasimproved.

Step 2

Contact your wireless service provider to verifyif there is service availability in your area.

Step 3

Verifying Service AvailabilityThe following is a sample output for the show cellular all command for a scenario where the antenna isdisconnected and a modem data profile has not been created.
