Changing the Iub or Iur Data Framing

3G data is carried over the radio waves using transport channels, which are mapped in the physical layer to different physical channels. The TFI tables describe how the and data for 3G are blocked on a physical channel. The table entry that you create for a VP.VC.CID describes how the logical channels are mapped onto the physical channel. To change the UMTS settings for the Iub or Iur data framing, you will update the TFI (Transport Format Identifier) tables. You can either load an existing TFI table using the File, Open (Load Data) menu selections, or create a new TFI table.

What is an Encapsulation?

The term "encapsulation" generally refers to the process of inserting a data frame, cell, or packet from a higher layer protocol into a frame, cell, or packet of a lower layer protocol. For example, IP packets at the Network layer are encapsulated into Frame Relay frames at the Data Link layer prior to transport across a Frame Relay network. In general, it is the responsibility of the sending device/application to encapsulate data, and the receiving device/application to remove header information to extract the original data. For the Network Analyzer, when you define an encapsulation, you provide a way for the Network Analyzer to interpret the encapsulation of the incoming data, such as ATM -> AAL-5 -> SAAL. In this chapter, you will add encapsulations for SAAL Decodes, IuUP Decodes, and FP-Iub or FP-Iur Decodes.

How to Add an Encapsulation

When adding an encapsulation, in the protocol stacks: • AAL2 contains MPAAL5, SSTED, FP-Iub, FP-Iur, and IuUP stacks. • AAL5 contains SAAL, which includes MTP3-b, MTP3-b (TTC), ALCAP (AAL2SIG), NBAP, and AutoUMTS.

44 3G UMTS W-CDMA Getting Started Guide Getting Started with the Network Analyzer J6842A 3G Test Software 3

1 Click the Encapsulations tab in the Configuration window, then click Add to define an encapsulation.

When you select ATM, 2 Select the ATM the right pane displays encapsulation, then the VPI.VCI entry fields. expand and examine the This is where you select AAL2 Frames and AAL5 the VPI.VCI(s) to which Frames protocol stacks. you want to apply the encapsulation.

At the AAL-2 level, when you select AAL2 Frames, you can enter a CID range in the right pane that appears.

3 To define an encapsulation to be used on incoming traffic, click the protocols that you want to use, then click OK. The encapsulations will appear in the Encapsulations table.

When selecting FP-Iub or FP-Iur in AAL2 Frames, you can define the Framing Protocol Transport Format Identifier (FP TFI) tables.

Now you can add 3G UMTS encapsulations for the Network Analyzer to interpret the encapsulations of incoming data.

3G UMTS W-CDMA Getting Started Guide 45 3 Getting Started with the Network Analyzer J6842A 3G Test Software

Step 2b. Add an Encapsulation for 3G SAAL Decodes

By adding an encapsulation for 3G SAAL decodes, you direct the incoming data to those decodes in the Network Analyzer. The SAAL stack does not have any user configuration.

1 In the Encapsulation Properties tab, select and expand the AAL5 Frames stack, select SAAL, and a protocol (MTP3-b, for example).

The data you will be directing may include MTP3-b, MTP3-b (TTC), ALCAP (AAL2SIG), and NBAP.

2 Enter a name for the new encapsulation, then click OK.

3 View the encapsulation in the Encapsulations table. Several of the sample encapsulations shown here allow the Network Analyzer to interpret the encapsulation of the incoming data over the MTP3-b and ALCAP protocols on the SAAL stack.

4 Examine the decoded SAAL frames in the Decode view.

46 3G UMTS W-CDMA Getting Started Guide Getting Started with the Network Analyzer J6842A 3G Test Software 3

Step 2c. Add an Encapsulation for 3G IuUP Decodes

By adding an encapsulation for 3G IuUP decodes, you direct the incoming data to those decodes in the Network Analyzer. The IuUP stack does not have any user configuration.

1 In the Encapsulation Properties tab, select and expand the AAL2 Frames stack, then select IuUP.

2 Enter a name for the new encapsulation, then click OK.

3 View the encapsulation in the Encapsulations table.

4 Examine the decoded IuUP frames in the Decode view.

3G UMTS W-CDMA Getting Started Guide 47 3 Getting Started with the Network Analyzer J6842A 3G Test Software

Step 2d. Add an Encapsulation for 3G FP-Iub or FP-Iur Decodes

By adding an encapsulation for 3G Iub or Iur decodes in the AAL-2 stack, you direct the incoming data to those decodes in the Network Analyzer. The Iub and Iur protocol stacks are almost identical, except for slight differences in the FP header. The user settings are the same.

1 In the Encapsulation Properties tab, select and expand the AAL2 Frames stack, then select FP-Iub. (You can rename the encapsulation later.)

Sample encapsulations in the Encapsulations table are shown here. The following pages show you how to define them for FP-Iub.

2 You can click Edit to rename an encapsulation either when you first enter the Encapsulation Properties window or after the encapsulation has been defined.

Changing the Iub or Iur Data Framing

3G data is carried over the radio waves using transport channels, which are mapped in the physical layer to different physical channels. The TFI tables describe how the messages and data for 3G are blocked on a physical channel. The table entry that you create for a VP.VC.CID describes how the logical channels are mapped onto the physical channel. To change the settings for the Iub or Iur data framing, you update the TFI (Transport Format Identifier) tables. You can either load an existing TFI table using the File, Open (Load Data) menu selections, or create a new TFI table.

1 Select to either edit an existing Framing Protocol Transport Format Identifier (FP TFI) table or add a new table.

2 If you want to add a new table, click Add TFI Table. A new dialog box appears, allowing you to define a new table.

4 Click Edit TFI Table. The Edit FP TFI Table Configuration dialog box appears.
