= Testing The Installation = == Prerequisites == 1. Confirm that all hardware and software has been properly installed. == Hardware connectivity check == Login through the console on the ASN-GW and test the following. 1. Is the BTS is reachable from the ASN-GW. with the default IP setting - ping the BTS interface - measure the round trip times 2. Power cycle the BTS through the use of stop and start scripts. - Perform a hard reset if required (if updated parameter values are not reflected). 3. Ping the outside interface and see if the DMZ gateway is reachable from the ASN-GW After successful completion we know that the ASN is able to send traffic both downlink to the IDU and outbound towards the internet. == Test the RF Transmission == 1. Scan on the client and check if the basestation's signal is seen using the procedure described below. If we are able to connect step 2 can be ignored. Else try step 2. Configure driver at the client to ensure all required parameters are configured correctly. - Change the /etc/asnctrl_service_class.conf to include client and service class information. - possibly include SSID to match with the BTS - Check center frequency to match with the BTS - Enable (locks) if any - Disable wifi if operating on a dual mode card (since quite a few times they work in a mutually exclusive mode) - Enable a static IP setting at the client to allow for baseline IP connectivity 2. If possible sweep the spectrum through an analyzer to determine proper transmission at the center frequency. - Vary transmit power at the BTS using wiset calls on the BTS or through the web interface and then measure the corresponding changes on the analyzer.
