Starting the Site Maintenance Terminal System

Before starting the Site Maintenance Terminal, firstly, set the IP address of the Site Maintenance Terminal PC; secondly, connect the Site Maintenance
Terminal PC to the BTS; finally, log in to the Site Maintenance Terminal.

1. Setting the IP Address of the Site Maintenance Terminal PC

This describes how to set the IP address of the SMT PC to the same network segment as the IP address (192.168.0.72/255.255.255.0) of the BTS.
2. Locally Connecting the SMT PC to the BTS
This describes how to connect the Site Maintenance Terminal (SMT) PC to the Ethernet port on the GTMU through an Ethernet cable. After they are
connected, you can operate and maintain the BTS on the SMT.
3. Logging in to the BTS at the Local End
This section describes the procedure to start the SMT. You can run the SMT to directly log in to the BTS at the local end.

Setting the IP Address of the Site Maintenance Terminal PC

This describes how to set the IP address of the SMT PC to the same network segment as the IP address (192.168.0.72/255.255.255.0) of the BTS.

Prerequisites

The TCP/IP protocol is installed on the SMT PC.

Context

The following uses the Windows 7 operating system as an example to describe how to set the IP address of the SMT PC.

Procedure

1. Choose Start > Control Panel.

The Control Panel window is displayed.
2. Choose Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Local Area Connection.
The Local Area Connection Status window is displayed.
3. Click Properties.
The Local Area Connection Properties window is displayed.
4. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), and click Properties.
The Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties dialog box is displayed.
5. Select Use the following IP address and enter the correct IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. Ensure that the IP address of the SMT PC is in
the same network segment as the IP addresses (192.168.0.72/255.255.255.0) of the BTS so that a maintenance channel on the BTS side can be
established.
6. Click OK to complete the settings.

Locally Connecting the SMT PC to the BTS

This describes how to connect the Site Maintenance Terminal (SMT) PC to the Ethernet port on the GTMU through an Ethernet cable. After they are
connected, you can operate and maintain the BTS on the SMT.

Prerequisites

l The IP address and subnet mask of the SMT PC are set correctly. The IP address is in the same network segment as the IP address
(192.168.0.72/255.255.255.0) of the BTS.
l If the BTS OML is established, run the LST BTSLOCALETHPORT command on the BSC LMT to check whether the ETH port is enabled. If not, run
the SET BTSLOCALETHPORT command to enable the port.
NOTE:

After the BTS is powered on or reset, if the BTS OML is not established, the ETH port is enabled by default.

Procedure

1. Connect the SMT PC to the BTS through an Ethernet cable. One end is connected to the Ethernet port on the main control board of the basic cabinet,
and the other end is connected to the Ethernet port on the SMT PC (usually a portable PC).
2. Open the MS-DOS Prompt dialog box.

On the SMT PC (Windows 2000/XP/7), choose Start > Run. In the Run dialog box, enter cmd, and press Enter. The MS-DOS prompt dialog box is
displayed.

3. Run ping 192.168.0.72 to verify the network connection between the computer and the BTS.

NOTE:

The 192.168.0.72 is the IP address of the BTS.

If the returned information is similar to that given in the example, the SMT PC and the BBU can communicate normally.

Logging in to the BTS at the Local End

This section describes the procedure to start the SMT. You can run the SMT to directly log in to the BTS at the local end.

Prerequisites

l The SMT PC is connected properly to the BTS.

l The latest software of the SMT is installed in the SMT PC.
l If the main control board is the GTMUc and the SMT digital certificate has been damaged or has expired, the latest digital certificate has been copied to
the SMT PC.
NOTE:
Log in to http://support.huawei.com, click Wireless Network Products, and download the trust certificate Wireless Network Product CA Chain.pem
and the certificate revocation list (CRL) WNCA_crl.crl.
l If the BTS OML is established, run the LST BTSLOCALETHPORT command on the BSC LMT to check whether the ETH port is enabled. If not, run
the SET BTSLOCALETHPORT command to enable the port.
NOTE:

After the BTS is powered on or reset, if the BTS OML is not established, the ETH port is enabled by default.

Context

Table 1 lists the mapping between BTS versions, default user names, and default passwords for logging in to the SMT.

Procedure

1. Double-click btsm.exe in the software package.

The System Login dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 1.

2. Under Select Communication Port, select Network Port and enter required information in the User Name, Password, and BTS IP Address text
boxes.

NOTE:
¡ The BTS should support the function which requires User Name and Password information.
¡ The default value of User Name is admin.
¡ The default value of Password for logging in to the SMT has been changed to hwbs@com in V100R014C00SPC008 and later.
¡ If the BTS version is V100R016 series versions or later before the upgrade:
n If the default password for logging in to the SMT has been changed before the upgrade, the new password takes effect upon the next login
after the BTS is upgraded to V100R018C10 or later.
n If the default password for logging in to the SMT remains unchanged before the upgrade, the password for logging in to the SMT is
hwbs@com after the BTS is upgraded to V100R018C10 or later.
¡ A mechanism is added to lock the SMT when a user has failed to log in to the SMT for three consecutive times. When the SMT is locked, the user
cannot log in to the SMT within 10 min. During this time, the user can maintain the BTS only by remotely logging in to the BSC LMT. In
addition, the number of consecutive login failures and lock duration can be configured by following steps provided in Setting Login and Password
Security Policies.
¡ Users are advised to change the default password after logging in to the SMT for the first time. Otherwise, the BTS is vulnerable to malicious
attacks.
¡ Users can log in to the BSC LMT and run the SET BTSUSERPWD command to change the user name and password with Username and
Password Type set to USER_SELF_DEFINE, Username set to admin, and Encrypted Mode set to ENCRYPTED. Each letter of the user
name can be capitalized but case sensitive. To prevent the BTS from being maliciously attacked, it is recommended that the default password
policy is used or a securer password policy is set by running the SET PWDPOLICY command.

3. Optional: Perform the following steps to update the BTS digital certificate if required:
a. Click Update Digital Certificate.
The Update Digital Certificate dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2 Update Digital Certificate dialog box

b. Specify Trust certificate and Certificate revocation list as required, and click Update.
Return to the System Login dialog box.
4. Click OK.
¡ If the number of login times exceeds the specified maximum number of login times, logging in to the system fails. The result is displayed on the
status bar in the System Login dialog box.
¡ If the SMT PC communicates with the BTS normally, a window is displayed, as shown in Figure 3. The SMT is started successfully.
¡ If the SMT PC fails to communicate with the BTS, the Communication failed dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 4. Go to 5.
