1. Introduction to WebEM

Web Element Manager (WebEM) overview, requirements, and functionality

WebEM overview
WebEM is a web-based application for maintaining and commissioning a BTS. You can use WebEM
both in online (direct connection to the BTS) and offline mode (locally saved WebEM application) to
create and modify a configuration as well as perform troubleshooting.

English is the only language supported by WebEM. However, you can insert the following
parameters in the local language:

Note:
For numerical values of the parameters, the decimal separator is a dot, and Nokia doesn't
recommend using a comma as a delimiter in numbers greater than 999.

Although WebEM doesn't interfere with other element managers, Nokia doesn't recommend
having more than one type of element manager connected to the site at the same time.

WebEM is used starting with the LTE 19, SRAN 17A, and 5G19A (for the classical gNB) releases.

Note:
The screenshots presented in the WebEM User Guide are merely a representation and have
to be considered as examples of the depicted content. The release of the SRAN software
you use may differ from the information in screenshots. To enlarge the figures in the
document, open them in a new tab.

Requirements
To connect to the BTS, type in the BTS management plane (M-plane) IP address (or the Local
Management Port (LMP) IP address in case of a local connection) using the newest version of the
supported internet browsers:
Chrome (recommended)
Mozilla Firefox

Note:
If you experience accessibility or functionality issues when using WebEM, check whether you
are using the newest version of the supported browser.

Note:
When using Chrome, you need to disable the Throttle Javascript timers in
the background flag. Otherwise, WebEM disconnects from the BTS when the web
browser or a WebEM tab is not active. Such disconnections interrupt ongoing operations.

Note:
Firefox can slow down, disconnect, or even crash due to the following actions:

Leaving Firefox open with WebEM running for a few days

Performing resource-heavy operations such as repetitive software updates without
restarting Firefox or cleaning the cache
Performing time-consuming operations that require extensive front-end calculations,
for example adding RAT functionality in Commissioning Wizard

In case of Firefox malfunction, refer to the official Firefox support page or use Chrome
instead.

You can launch WebEM from any PC that can run Chrome or Firefox. However, for better
performance, the following specification is required:
Minimum screen resolution: 1366x768 pixels (1920x1080 is recommended)
CPU: 2 GHz, 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64)
RAM: 4 GB
Hard drive storage: 20 GB of available space

Note:
Depending on the browser type or version, WebEM may not work when loaded from the
browser cache. In such a case, clear the cache or refresh the page (Ctrl+F5).

User roles
The user role and its assigned privileges determine access to commands. WebEM supports the
following user roles:

BTS System Administrator (Nemuadmin)

This role has full read and write access to the system. The BTS System Administrator's account
is always active and can't be deactivated. A user assigned to this role can manage all BTS
applications and configurations, including security configurations.
BTS Security Administrator (BTSSecurity)
This role has limited read and write access to the system. As a BTS Security Administrator, you
can't activate the account yourself. Before it can be used to log in and perform any actions, a
BTS System Administrator needs to activate it. However, you can deactivate the account. A

BTS Security Administrator can manage BTS security applications and configurations, in
particular local security, hardening settings, and certificates.
BTS Application Administrator (BTSApplication)
This role has limited read and write access to the system. As a BTS Application Administrator,
you can't activate or deactivate the account yourself. Before it can be used to log in and
perform any actions, a BTS System Administrator or a BTS Security Administrator needs to
activate it. Similarly, only users with these accounts can deactivate it. A BTS Application
Administrator can manage all BTS applications and configurations except those related to
security.
BTS Read-Only (BTSRead)
This role has read-only access. As a BTS Read-Only user, you can't activate or deactivate the
account yourself. Before it can be used to log in and perform any actions, a BTS System
Administrator or a BTS Security Administrator needs to activate it. Similarly, only users with
these accounts can deactivate it.

Functionality
WebEM updates status information in predefined periods as long as it's connected to the BTS.

Note:
Due to the defined period of data synchronization between WebEM and the BTS, WebEM
may not display all the BTS status information.

WebEM uses a new type of file, the info model snapshot (IMS2), which includes full BTS runtime
data from a certain period. You can save IMS2 files manually from WebEM, or they can be
automatically retrieved by WebEM when a BTS snapshot is collected.

The location of files downloaded from WebEM (for example site configuration file (SCF), IMS2, or
regular snapshot files) depends on the browser settings.

2. WebEM protection against HTTP flood attack

Prior to 5G21A and SRAN 21A, the WebEM application had to be downloaded to a PC before
logging in. As a result, unauthorized users could access BTS internal data or perform an HTTP
flood attack by initiating multiple WebEM downloads without authentication. The CB005784:
Protection of WebEM Against HTTP Flood Attack feature improves security by separating the
login functionality from the WebEM application.

The CB005784 feature introduces the following changes to Web Element Manager (WebEM):
The full application is downloaded only after a successful login.
After a successful login, WebEM creates a new connection.
You log in through an HTTPS-based interface.
An offline version of WebEM can only be downloaded after logging in.
WebEM sends a notification when a BTS receives more HTTP requests than the predefined
limit.
WebEM is delivered to Support portal (only the [Link] file).

files, and see the actual status of the BTS connection.

The Site Status bar shows the following elements:

BTS ID
Site name
You can configure the site name using the MRBTS BTS name (btsName) parameter.
Number of active alarms
Active software version
Time zone
Configured technologies (GSM, WCDMA, LTE, NR) and their status
The reset button is used to reset a specific technology. In LTE and NR, you can select
one of the following radio access technology (RAT) reset types:
Reset—without layer 1 (L1) system-on-chip (SoC) reset
Hard reset—with L1 SoC reset
When the FEATCADM Activate RAT reset enhancement
(actRatResetEnhancement) parameter is set to false, the RAT reset option triggers
L1 SoC reset.

Notice:
A RAT reset is not supported for TD-LTE Massive MIMO deployed on an ABIC capacity plug
-in unit. Using the reset button triggers cell malfunction.

Resetting a whole technology also resets its cells and carriers, and interrupts the connection with
the controller. The reset has no impact on the system modules and other technologies, which
continue providing services.

3.6 Navigation Panel

Navigation Panel is located on the left side of Web Element Manager (WebEM) and has the
Timeline, Objects, and Steps views, depending on which of them are currently available.

Navigation Panel is located on the left side of WebEM. The icon hides the panel, while the
icon displays it again. Depending on the Working Panel view, Navigation Panel
consists of three interchangeable tabs: Timeline, Objects, and Steps.

Timeline
Figure 17: Timeline tab

The Timeline tab lists updates received from the BTS site. After logging in to WebEM, the IM
Snapshot Collected message appears, and WebEM downloads an info model snapshot
(IMS2) file with changes applied to the BTS.

This tab also enables you to select and display data for a specific time frame. Each timestamp
includes detailed information about the BTS state at a given time. Timestamps are displayed in
the BTS timezone. As long as the connection between WebEM and the BTS is established, the
Timeline list is updated with new entries, which you can save to an IMS2 file at any time. In
offline mode, when the IMS2 file is loaded, the list shows all available (saved) entries.

This functionality is useful for troubleshooting. For example, if a problem occurs on site at a
certain time and then disappears, you can choose the right timestamp and see what happened at
that particular time. You can also navigate through the timeline to see what caused the problem
to disappear.

Note:
After a power, spurious, or watchdog reset in the SBTS, the timestamp of the newly
created audit trail event or log is inaccurate until the SBTS system time is synchronized
with the external time source. This asynchronization can result in duplicated and missing
events.

You can load a list of changes that occurred before the connection to the BTS. The history load
option appears after the first connection to the BTS, but only when the BTS is synchronized.
Clicking Yes starts the history load process:

Figure 18: History load option

If a timestamp is marked in red, a fault occurred during that time. A timestamp in which the alarm
ceases to exist is also marked in red. When a BTS is reset, the timestamp contains the label [RST].

The buttons located at the top of the Timeline panel provide the following functionalities:
Focus on the newest entry—focus on the most recent state (only while connected to
the BTS)
Save IMS2—save an IMS2 file
Save IMS2 from range—save an IMS2 file from a selected time period
Merge timeline—merge all visible entries into a single one

Based on the affected object names, you can filter the timestamps that are visible by using
Expression filter located at the top of Navigation Panel.

Selecting a timestamp displays the BTS state from that point.

Changing the view, for example by using the top menu or tabs, doesn't affect the items displayed
in the Timeline tab.

The timeline is erased when the browser is reset or closed.

Objects
The Objects tab is active for different views. Depending on the view, the Object tab shows
one of the following:
An object list of the site elements: hardware and cells. An object selected from the list is
highlighted in Working Panel. You can filter the objects by using the Object name text
field in Navigation Panel.
A configuration plan in a tree format. You can see multiple configuration plans at a time, and
the one that is currently being used is presented in the designated Current BTS
configuration section of the Objects tab. The (Load SCF) button (located in
Working Panel) enables you to load a configuration from a previously prepared site
configuration file (SCF). Newly loaded configurations are added at the bottom, and they are

available locally and visible in the Planned BTS configuration section of the Objects
tab. The following states of configuration plan are supported and stored in the BTS:
Active (current configuration plan)
You can have one active configuration plan.
Pre-activated (configuration plan ready for configuration)
You can have one pre-activated configuration plan.
Staged (configuration plan still under editing)
For Parameter Editor you can have three staged configuration plans. If you have the
maximum number of stage plans, you have to manually remove them to create a new one.​
Commissioning Wizard has no limit for the stage configuration plans, it's
recommended to use Commissioning Wizard for new stage plan creation if the limit is
met in the Parameter Editor.

Note:
From 25R2 release the Navigation Panel is changed in the Parameter
Editor to Managed objects. The configuration plan is presented in a list.

When you decide to validate one of the stage plans instead of the pre-activated one, the BTS
performs validation on the chosen stage plan and removes the pre-activated configuration
plan.

A list of configuration plans. An object selected from the list is highlighted in Working
Panel, along with detailed information about the configuration.

You can filter connections between site elements and antenna line devices (ALDs) using the upper
menu. Note that the displayed fiber lengths might differ from the actual lengths. When WebEM
displays '-' instead of the fiber length value, it means that the calculation isn't reliable.

WebEM doesn't detect that fibers between capacity plug-in units and radio units (RUs) in the
Enhanced Common Public Radio Interface (eCPRI) connection are crossed. To display alarms about
the crossed fibers or related broken links, activate the CB005832: eCPRI Ethernet Connectivity

more details about an alarm, use the icon to go to the Active Alarms tab in the Alarm
Management view. The list of alarms is also visible on a tooltip for that alarm.

Note:
The Detailed Site View tab in Web Element Manager (WebEM) does not properly
reflect fronthaul cable ports (OPT1, OPT2) used by the RUs. For example, for AEQD and
AEQA, a physical cable is connected to the OPT_IF2 port, but the Detailed Site View
tab shows the cable to be connected to the OPT_IF1 port. This visual mismatch does not
raise additional alarms or impact BTS operation.

Note:
Validation errors, especially hardware topology relation errors, may cause
Commissioning Wizard to work incorrectly. If you open a loaded, manually created, or
modified configuration plan, resolve the topology-related errors first using Parameter
Editor to ensure proper Commissioning Wizard functioning.

Commissioning Wizard enables you to have fully operational BTSs in the network by
creating new configurations as well as editing the existing ones on the BTS or those loaded from a
site configuration file (SCF). The configurations don't have to be active. You can also use
Commissioning Wizard in offline mode with or without a previously loaded info model
snapshot (IMS2) file.

Notice:
Merging two 5G or 4G SCFs (FDD + TDD, FDD + FDD, or TDD + TDD) into one new target
SCF for the SBTS can cause validation problems and wrong configurations. Therefore, Nokia
recommends merging BTSs only with different radio access technologies (RATs) (for
example, one RAT is 5G, the other one is 4G) using the addRAT command in WebEM
Remote Tool. Merging the BTSs with the same RAT (for example, with all cells configured to
either 5G or 4G) requires a manual modification of the SCF. Other 5G or 4G cells have to be
added manually.

Note:
When all capacity and control plug-in units and radio units (RUs) as well as detected cables
between them are commissioned, you can't change the existing CABLINKs or manually
create a new one. In this case, the cables in the configuration have to fully correspond to
the detected ones.

You can use the Commissioning Wizard topology view and the Commissioning Wizard
step-by-step view for configuration. The site view (topology view) enables you to create basic
modules and logical items (like cells) and establish connections between them. The step-by-step
view (configuration wizard) enables you to create the same configurations as in the site view, but,
additionally, more advanced parameters can be defined here.

You can create physical and logical links in the Commissioning Wizard site view. Clicking on
any of the connectors starts the process of creating connections between units (LOGLINKs and
CABLINKs). Green buttons are used to establish a connection, while the red button stops the

connection process. Click on a connector to remove a connection from the plan.

You can remove a CABLINK from the configuration by clicking the bin icon at the capacity plug-in
unit side. However, it's not possible to remove it from the RU side when a cable is connected to
the ? port. Clicking the bin icon at the capacity plug-in unit side removes a given CABLINK from
the configuration (check in Parameter Editor), but the link remains visible in the runtime
configuration in the Commissioning Wizard view. When planning logical connections
between cells and RUs, click the icon in a cell and select the green connector to define the signal
direction (TX or RX) on the RU.

The color of the displayed link depends on the link status:

Dark blue line—the link is commissioned and detected (online, degraded, or failed).
Light blue line—the link isn't commissioned, only detected (online, degraded, or failed).
Orange line—the link is configured in WebEM but not mapped to any detected runtime object.

number) and inside a correct range. Nevertheless, it doesn't enforce hardware-specific limitations,
so you can set inappropriate values for given hardware. For more information about the options
in a toolbar, please put your cursor on one of them for the description.

Parameters are used to configure and control the BTS site and are grouped into the following
managed object (MO) classes:
Set by system—the parameters can't be changed.
Mandatory—the parameters are required for the BTS to work properly. When omitted, a
message about a missing or invalid parameter is displayed.
Optional—the parameters are used to further configure the system.

Web Element Manager (WebEM) provides functionalities necessary to easily find and edit
parameters as well as view parameter details.

Whenever parameter information is loaded from an SCF, it's automatically validated to detect
configuration errors such as incorrect or conflicting parameter values. Validation results are
displayed in the Definition errorsand Relation errors tables at the bottom of the
page. Hardware errors are included in Relation errors table.

You can also perform the validation manually by using the icon.

To see parameters, an MO needs to be previously selected in Managed objects. After the

selection, all assigned parameters are displayed along with the MO name. Note that not all MOs
have associated parameters, in which case only the MO name is displayed along with the
Parameters not available notification.

You can filter parameters in real time using the:

[Link] Validation Errors (Definition, Relation, Hardware)

Validation Errors tables display errors found during parameter validation.

From 25R2 release these tabs have been merged with Parameter Editor tab.

Validation is used to detect such errors as incorrect, missing, or conflicting parameter values or
parameter sets not matching configuration rules.

Whenever parameter information is loaded (either from the current configuration or the site
configuration file (SCF)), validation is performed automatically to detect configuration errors such
as incorrect or conflicting parameter values. Validation results are displayed in the Definition
Errorsand Relation Errorstables at the bottom of the Parameter Editortab.
Hardware errors are included in Relation errors table.

Plan validation against planned hardware is performed based on planned product code and
hardware properties. Plan validation against detected hardware is optional and can be performed
based on product code and properties of detected hardware.

Relation and hardware issues can be categorized into errors and warnings, based on their severity
level. Warnings don't prevent provisioning a plan to a BTS. You can still activate a plan with relation
or hardware errors or warnings, but, in such cases, Nokia isn't responsible for any plan activation
failures.

Validation consists of:

XML validation, which verifies file integrity and structure (in the case of the SCF).
NIDD validation, which detects incorrect parameter values or missing mandatory parameters.
parameter relation error validation, which detects conflicting parameter values.
hardware validation, which detects hardware-related parameter values that are incorrect or
conflicting with the planned or actual hardware used on the site.

Validation errors are grouped into three categories:

Definition Errors inform you about, for example, unknown parameter or managed
object (MO) names, missing mandatory parameters or values, or incorrect values. When
definition errors occur, plan activation isn't possible. You can modify parameter values directly
from this view.
Relation Errors inform you about relationship issues between parameters or their sets,
for example when a parameter value conflicts with another.
Hardware Errors inform you about issues related to the planned or actual hardware

configuration, for example when hardware-related parameter values don't match the hardware
used on the site (such as the serial number, unit name, and so on). There are two types of
Hardware Errors:
errors against planned hardware
errors against detected hardware

Note:
Web Element Manager (WebEM) gives you tips on how to repair the errors according to the
validation rules of the Parameter Description Language (PDL).

WebEM supports fully distinguished name (FDN) format and shortened distinguished name (SDN)
format for parameters related to distinguished names (DNs) as long as the parameter isn't set to
Value set by system. For the parameters set to Value set by system, only FDN
format is supported.

Note:
If the DN value is invalid, that is, if it refers to more than one MO or to an MO that doesn't
exist, you can't click the Activate Plan button. The information icon shown on the
Definition Errors tab informs you of this error.

Note:
If there are no errors, but the plan activation fails while activating a delta configuration,
simultaneous changes could have been made to parameters related to each other under
the TNLSVC MO. You can solve this issue by sending those changes to the BTS in separate
delta configuration plans. Example situation of a plan activation failure without errors:
1. In the current configuration, FLOWCL IP interface reference (ipIfDN) is set
to MRBTS-1/TNLSVC-1/TNL-1/IPNO-1/IPIF-1, and FSTSCH IP interface
reference (ipIfDN) isn't set to any value.
2. In a delta configuration plan, FLOWCL IP interface reference (ipIfDN) is
changed to MRBTS-1/TNLSVC-1/TNL-1/IPNO-1/IPIF-2, and FSTSCH IP
interface reference (ipIfDN) is set to
MRBTS-1/TNLSVC-1/TNL-1/IPNO-1/IPIF-1.

To solve this example issue, you can send the changes in two separate delta configuration
plans:

1. Change FLOWCL IP interface reference (ipIfDN) to

MRBTS-1/TNLSVC-1/TNL-1/IPNO-1/IPIF-2.
2. Set FSTSCH IP interface reference (ipIfDN) to
MRBTS-1/TNLSVC-1/TNL-1/IPNO-1/IPIF-1.

5.1.3 Conflicting commissioning data

A description of Web Element Manager (WebEM) behavior when conflicting commissioning data
occurs

When you make changes in Commissioning Wizard or Parameter Editor,

commissioning data used by the BTS may be modified in another WebEM session, in MantaRay
NM, or internally by the system. Your changes in Commissioning Wizard or in Parameter
Editor may conflict with changes applied to the system.

WebEM behavior depends on how the conflict happened:

When a delta or full recommissioning is performed through another WebEM session or
MantaRay NM, WebEM can't merge the changes implemented in the current session with the
changes applied to the system. Consequently, you can only save a backup site configuration
file (SCF) with the applied changes.

WebEM User Guide

Copyrighted material licensed to phongnm@[Link] on 10-03-2025.
When the changes are made by the system (by the SetByTheSystem parameters), WebEM
merges the changes provided by the system with those you made in a particular WebEM
session. When the system modifies the same object class as the user, WebEM notifies you
about the conflict. In such a case, perform one of the following actions:
Switch to frozen mode.
Refresh the changes (which reloads Parameter Editor, and restores the SCF from
before the conflict took place).
Save a backup SCF.

In frozen mode, you can implement all the changes to the configuration before the conflicting
changes in the system are applied. After sending the changes to the system in frozen mode, the
plan is partially activated on the BTS side. Note that you lose all the implemented configuration
changes if you switch from frozen mode to normal mode. Also, frozen mode is available only when
WebEM notifies you about conflicting changes:

5.3 Certificate Management

The Certificate Management view enables managing certificates and their functions.

Access to the Certificate Management view: Top

Menu›Configuration›Certificate Management

The Certificate Management view offers a way to manage certificates and their functions.
Certificates are used to ensure that a public key comes from a trusted authority. A certificate
provides information about the owner of the certificate, owner's name, certificate usage, duration
of validity, resource location, or distinguished name, which includes the common name and the
certificate ID of the person who certifies (signs) this information. It also includes the public key and
a hash to ensure that the certificate hasn't been tampered with. To see detailed information
about each certificate, click on the appropriate row in a certificate table. All information is

The certificate authority (CA) maintains a list of all signed certificates as well as a certificate
revocation list (CRL). A certificate is unsafe until signed as only a signed certificate can't be
modified. To manage certificates automatically, configure a Certificate Management Protocol
(CMP) server.

When a BTS certificate is changed, the browser may fail to validate the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
certificate. In that case, Web Element Manager (WebEM) can't set up a new HTTPS connection,
which may result in, for example, a file transmission failure. To solve this issue, refresh the web
page and manually accept the certificate.

5.7 Antenna Line Device Sharing Configuration

Antenna Line Device (ALD) Sharing Configuration introduces a mode of operation for ALD
management to handle the scenario in which a passive antenna is shared between two mobile
operators and only a subset of ALDs is available to be managed by specific BTS.

Access the Antenna Line Devices Sharing Configuration view: Top

Menu›Configuration›ALD Sharing Configuration

This view is active only after you've activated the CB008605: ALD Management with Antenna
Sharing by Operators feature. By using this view, you can see and choose the ALDs you would like
to manage based on the serial code, product number, and Unique Identity (UID) pairs.

Three new parameters were introduced with the CB008605 feature:

FEATCADM Activate ALD sharing (actAldSharing) – used to activate feature.
APEQM ALD allowed list (aldAllowedList) – the list containing the UIDs of the
devices.
ANTL HDLC start address (hdlcStartAddr) – the starting address for High-Level
Data Link Control (HDLC) address assignment.

When the CB008605 feature is enabled, then only ALDs configured in aldAllowedList
parameter are detected and assigned to the current BTS. With this function, you can start
scanning all unassigned ALDs.

The following conditions need to be fulfilled before scanning unassigned ALDs:

The connection between WebEM and BTS is established.
The actAldSharing parameter is set to true.
The ALD scanning of unassigned ALDs hasn't started yet.

Figure 61: Example of a Performance Management table

Figure 62: Example of a Performance Management plot

The date and time from a BTS performance measurement are used for BTS counters and
transport (TRS) counters. Real-time measurements are displayed in the BTS time.

When an info model snapshot (IMS2) is used, only real-time measurements are available. When a
snapshot is used, performance management (PM) files and their data are also available.

If a counter is missing, it's because its PM object hasn't been created. A PM object is a set of
measurements associated with a particular network profile. The PM object is created only when its
counter needs to be updated. Until then, the counter isn't included in the PM files.

You can filter items in Navigation Panel by name. Up to 50,000 search results can be
displayed at a time. You can also manually select counters and save a filter as an XML file by using
the Export filter button in Navigation Panel. To display a list of all counters, use the

When using the Save Snapshot function, don't switch to another view before the PNG
file is saved because this interrupts the process of saving the snapshot.

You can export BTS counters by using the Export to CSV button.

BTS Counters and Transport Counters tabs

In online mode (when WebEM gathers data from the BTS), the BTS Counters and Transport
Counters tabs show, by default, historical values and real-time values in a table view; operator
can change to show in a chart view. For BTS and TRS counters, all the data gathered up to the
current timestamp is available.

In offline mode, when data is loaded from a snapshot, the BTS Counters and Transport
Counters tabs show, by default, the latest value in a table view. The operator can change it to
show in a chart view, and the user can save it locally.

Real-time Measurements tab

The Real-time Measurements tab enables you to measure:
Energy efficiency, that is:
voltage and power of the control or core unit as well as radio units (RUs)
power of capacity plug-in units
To enable the energy efficiency monitoring, set the FEATCADM Power meter enabled
(actPowerMeter) parameter to true. Energy efficiency monitoring data is updated every
60 seconds.
Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR)
The VSWR measurement applies only to TX-capable antenna lines. In case of multiband RUs,
multiple ANTL objects can represent different bands within the same antenna connector. In
this case, VSWR measurements are shown for each ANTL object representing the same
antenna.

You can measure the temperature of the AMOE, AMID, and AMIDL subracks.
External passive intermodulation cancellation

Note:
The Real-time Measurements tab shows energy consumption based on the power
that goes through the module power supply unit (PSU). In dual-rack configurations with the
first subrack powered directly by the PSU and the second subrack powered through the
backplane, the overall energy consumption of the whole dual-rack configuration is shown in
the field related to the PSU-powered subrack. The zero value is reported for the
backplane-powered subrack.

6.2 KPI Dashboard

The KPI Dashboard view enables you to see respective key performance indicators (KPIs) for
all objects.

Access to the KPI Dashboard view: Top menu› Performance›KPI Dashboard

KPIs are displayed for objects selected in Navigation Panel›Objects. You can group the

Note:
When a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) is configured for the primary or secondary
certification authority server, or for both, of the Certificate Management Protocol (CMP),
this FQDN is resolved only during Initialization Request (IR) or Key Update Request
operations. As a result, the IP addresses obtained from the FQDN resolution of the CMP
server are visible only after a successful IR or Key Update Request operation. In the IP
Connectivity Test view, only one active IP address is displayed for every FQDN.
However, Parameter Editor displays up to two resolved IP addresses, except for the

Snapshot upload for fault 6450

Fault 6450 Diagnostic Files collected is reported to inform that digital signal
processor memory dumps or baseband or system module core dumps were collected after a
crash. To download the dumps from the BTS, you need to download snapshot files from the BTS.

The Snapshot upload delay for fault 6450 field defines the delay after which the
BTS automatically collects and uploads snapshot files when fault 6450 is detected, and when the
value of the Snapshot upload destination for fault 6450 field is other than
disabled. When Snapshot upload destination for fault 6450 is set to
disabled, the automatic collection and upload of snapshot files upon detection of fault 6450 is
disabled, and the Snapshot upload delay for fault 6450 field is ignored.

When Snapshot upload delay for fault 6450 is set to 0, the BTS automatically
collects and uploads snapshot files as soon as fault 6450 is detected.

9.13 Reset to Test Dedicated State

The Reset to Test Dedicated State view sets the site to a state that enables you to
perform tests.

Access to the Reset to Test Dedicated State view: Diagnostic›Reset to Test

Dedicated State

To perform such tests as LTE uplink, LTE downlink, WCDMA uplink, and WCDMA downlink, you
need to run the Execute procedure. The procedure resets the site and puts it in the test
-dedicated state (TDS). While in the TDS, the site is treated as Blocked.

The BTS can't enter the TDS if no commissioned hardware is detected. Moreover, the TDS isn't
supported in the following modes:
ABIO concurrent mode for the following configuration types: NR TDD-NR FDD and LTE TDD
-LTE FDD
ABIO NR FDD-LTE FDD-NR TDD concurrent tri-mode
ASOE concurrent mode for the following configuration types: NR FDD-NR TDD and LTE FDD
-LTE TDD
ABIN concurrent mode for the LTE FDD-NR FDD configuration type

Note:
For the ASOE core unit, the BTS resets twice to enter the TDS.

Before resetting the BTS to the TDS, Nokia recommends deactivating energy-saving mode on RUs
serving cells to be tested. To do so, set the RMOD Energy Saving Mode Activation
(energySavingMode) parameter to NORMAL.

While the site is in the TDS, the icon is displayed in the BTS site information area.

In the TDS, advanced baseband (BB) pooling mechanisms are disabled by the system.
Consequently, the number of cells available for testing can be smaller than in the normal mode. In
the normal mode, advanced BB polling mechanisms are activated with the following parameters:
NRBTS Activate baseband pooling of RRC connected users
(actConnRrcPooling)
NRBTS Activate baseband resource pooling FR1 TDD (actBbPoolTddFr1)

Loopback
This function is used for testing purposes if all remote peer loops received non-OAMPDUs. If
loopback mode is activated and doesn't receive a disable command, the BTS returns to the
normal working state after a timeout is reached.

The loopback testing is used for:

checking if the traffic is correctly sent and looped back to the local node.
checking statistics (number of frames with errors).
identifying incorrect packets and packet drops in the link.

Notice:
Loopback mode interrupts regular traffic, so Nokia recommends using it for offline testing
or if you have tried all other online testing methods.

10. Procedures

The Procedures view contains several tabs where you can disable an Ethernet port, R&D
service port, or service account Secure Shell (SSH), and change the BTS R&D parameters.

10.1 Calibrate EPIMC FHS

The Calibrate EPIMC FHS view enables you to calibrate passive intermodulation
cancellation (PIMC) for a fronthaul switch (FHS).

Access to the Calibrate EPIMC FHS view: Procedures›Calibrate EPIMC FHS

The PIMC functionality is based on an engine whose hardware and software monitor downlink
signals coming from a Nokia AirScale control plug-in unit and compute a PIM model in real time.
The PIMC engine also intercepts uplink signals coming from radio units, synchronizes any PIM
interference using the PIM model, and subtracts PIM noise or interference according to the
identified model. The PIMC functionality reduces the uplink PIM interference, and a cleaner signal
is sent to the control plug-in unit.

You need to perform calibration for this functionality to work properly. To do that, click a
dedicated button next to the FHS. Calibration results are displayed under the table listing the
available FHSs, as shown in the figure below:

For instructions on how to perform a BTS power reset, see Performing a BTS power reset.

BTS power reset

There are two available BTS power resets:
Power reset—This is the default option. Web Element Manager (WebEM) resets the power
and displays the progress of the operation. Nokia recommends saving a snapshot manually
before choosing this reset type.
Power reset with snapshot collection—WebEM uploads a snapshot to a remote
server before resetting the power and displays the status of the remote snapshot.

Figure 97: BTS Power Reset view

BTS power reset of the primary and secondary core

In a dual-core AirScale configuration, the BTS power reset is performed on both the primary and
secondary core. If the secondary core is unreachable, you can reset its power by using the subrack
backplane control interface when the FEATCADMActivate secondary core backplane
resets (actSecCoreBackplaneReset) parameter is set to a value different than
disableAll.

If the actSecCoreBackplaneReset parameter is set to enableWarmOnly, you can

perform one of the following warm resets of the secondary core:

Notice:
Nokia doesn't recommend using the forced BTS site reset as a substitute for the standard
site reset to avoid any unpredictable consequences or BTS instability. Perform the forced
BTS site reset only if you can't perform any other management operation with the
management plane connection available.

The forced BTS site reset isn't immediately executed after it's triggered but is delayed by 15
minutes. If you perform a site or BTS power reset during this delay, the forced reset is cancelled.
In rare cases, however, a site or BTS power reset may be impossible. Then, the forced BTS site
reset is the only option.

If problems persist following a forced BTS site reset, you need to visit the physical site and

13. FAQ about WebEM

A list of answers to the most common questions about Web Element Manager (WebEM)

Is WebEM the same tool as ADMIN?

WebEM is an evolution of the Application of Diagnostic and Maintenance for Intelligent Network
(ADMIN) tool that was delivered in release LTE 16A. Starting from the LTE 19/SRAN 17A release,
WebEM has been enhanced in parallel with BTS Site Manager and become the official element
manager.

Is BTS Site Manager available from release LTE 19 onward?

No, WebEM is the only available element manager.

The ADMIN tool was accessible over port 3600. Is WebEM accessible in the
same way?
Starting from the LTE 19/SRAN 17A release, WebEM is deployed on default HTTPS port 443. You
don't need to provide a port in modern browsers whenever you refer to the default port, so you
can enter any of the following URLs:
[Link]
[Link]

How to log into WebEM?

To log into WebEM, use the same credentials that you used before to log in to BTS Site Manager.

Is the communication between WebEM and the BTS secure?

Yes, WebEM uses Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) and WebSocket Secure (WSS).

What happens if more than one user executes the same operation at a time?
The BTS performs one of the operations and rejects the other. You are notified if your request
has been rejected. However, no additional information with the reason for rejection is provided.

Can I log in to the application with read-only access?

Yes, there is a dedicated account profile that you need to first activate through the User
Account Management view, which has read-only access. You can also manually downgrade
your own rights during the login process by selecting an adequate flag.

What access levels are currently supported?

Currently, four different access levels are supported: BTS Read Only User, BTS Application
Administrator, BTS Security Administrator, and BTS System Administrator.

Can I communicate with other connected users?

No, there is no “chat” functionality implemented in WebEM. However, you can browse a list of
already connected users in the Sessions List view.

Are the actions triggered by Element Manager atomic?

Yes, for example, even if during the recommissioning procedure multiple objects are being edited,
the whole procedure is atomic.

Can I dump configuration from a given timestamp?

Yes, simply select a given timestamp in a timeline component (the left-side application panel), go
to Parameter Editor, and save the configuration from there. Please note that you can select
only one timeframe at a time. If anything else is selected in the timeline panel, the latest
configuration is exported.

Can I see the number of active data sessions and VoLTE calls?
In the WebEM graphical user interface (GUI) and WebEM Remote Tool, you can check the average
number of active UEs per cell during the measurement period, which lasts 15 minutes by default.

The UE is considered active if it has at least one successfully configured non-GBR data radio
bearer (DRB). You can also check the average number of active UEs per cell by referring to the
value of counter M8051C57 CELL_LOAD_ACTIVE_UE_AVG.

Does the RUEM log contain login information of the user that triggered an
operation?
Yes, it does.

Can I export historical changes from the application to check the state of the
BTS offline?
Yes, you can either use the Save ims2 button on the timeline to export changes registered by
WebEM during a session, or you can use the IMSnapshot or Snapshot procedure to export
changes registered by the BTS from the moment of its startup.

Why does the size of WebEM logs saved in an IMS2 file differ from those
saved automatically by WebEM or created by the IMS2 procedure?
The size of the info model snapshot (IMS2) file is different because it's compressed.

Can I check what the state of the BTS was prior to the connection?
Yes, once the connection is established, there is a pop-up window in the timeline component in
which you can check the state of the BTS during every previous connection.

Is the interface between WebEM and the BTS open and public?
No, the interface between WebEM and the BTS is binary, and isn't intended to be used by third
parties. For automatization, use WebEM Remote Tool.

Can I check real-time counters in WebEM?

Yes, selected counters are reported in the Real-time Measurement view.

Is validation mandatory to activate a plan?
Yes, the validation phase is mandatory to activate a plan. However, you can skip the validation
results.

Where can I find a manual for WebEM?

The manual for WebEM is available in Discovery Center. You can also download it from the BTS
using the Download Help functionality of the application.

Can I send a plan first and activate it later?

Yes, you can send one plan or delta configuration to the BTS to activate it later. Please note that
new plan or delta configuration overwrites the previous one.

Can I attach notes to plans, especially to those intended to be activated

later?
No, there is no such functionality.

Can I use WebEM to extract a GSM configuration file for the LTE and GSM
sharing feature?
Yes, you can.

Can I check an alarm history in WebEM?

Yes, but indirectly. You need to load an alarm history before the connection.
