It allows 2 nodes from different
technologies or RAT(NR/Wifi) to Only on same technology, but
be connected it is faster (-Latency)
APPLICATION CASE
ENDC should be done with ALL NR Integrations i.e. NR600, N41

PRE-REQUISITES ON SITE TO COMPLETE ENDC:

• IDLE connected on LTE Legacy and the given NR node

If no IDLE, the BBs won’t be “connected” and thus the relations won’t be created

• All radios connected on the NR technology

Some MOs are created when cells are up

• SYNC enabled (GPS or PTP)

BB or Radios may not come up

• Compatible SW between Nodes

BB or Radios may not come up

Relations can’t be created without ENDC!
 SCRIPTS FOR AAS or LAA *NOTE
When we have other LTE BBs, we need to define the relation on them as well
 STEP BY STEP
1. Check IDLE st eran
IDLE must be
ENABLED/UNLOCKED
on both LTE Legacy and
NR

2. Check SYNC hget RadioEquipmentClockReference= state|priority|type

If IXRE, we need PTP

3.Check Radios
hget field data|state Check we have the proper radios and all enabled
 4. Check that Endpoint on NR exists, if not, raise ticket with TCM
get LocalIpEndpoint=1

5. Unlock NR cells, make sure they’re BARRED/RESERVED and check alarms

deb NrCell

6. Check AMFs are enabled on NR

st amf
*If AMFs are not up, check if you can ping the router:
get Transport=1,Router=vr_TRAFFIC,RouteTableIPv4Static=1,Dst=1,NextHop=1 address > $TRAFFICIP 
mcc Transport=1,Router=vr_TRAFFIC ping $TRAFFICIP

**IF not, cr GNBCUCPFunction=1,EUtraNetwork=1

***If after restart they don’t come up, ask FE to call Switch

7. Run ENDC Scripts LTE NR
