Notice: for customer, which CME is suggested is based on whether the project is LO or GL. For details, should be
decided and answered by marketing department. The saying Java CME/Delphi CME is not for customer, its
only internal calling for convenience. Here in this material, if not specified , the Integrated CME is the Java CME.

CME Basic Concepts for Configuration-Workflow
Workflow:
1No concept of Current area and Planed area.
2All the operation flow is the same as Integrated mode CME. Only the panel style, menu distribution,
function numbers are different(Standalone has fewer functions than integrated CME).
CME Basic Concepts for Configuration-Template
Internal Templates
Templates is for creating eNodeBs.
Templates include typical and default configuration data, which facilitates quick configuration
and reduces configuration workload and improves work efficiency.
Templates define the aggregation of comprehensive eNodeB parameters.
Templates are in .xml format.
Templates are classified into system templates(default tempate) and custom templates. Here
system&custom template means the different source of tempates, only the eNodeB template
has system templates.
Template Type Template Content Information
System templates : published with

Defines the aggregation of comprehensive mediation version
eNodeB template
eNodeB parameters.
Custom templates: manually created
Cell template Defines the aggregation of cell algorithm Only has Custom templates
parameters. (cell-level)
Radio template Defines the aggregation of radio layer Only has Custom templates
algorithm parameters.(eNodeB -level)
CME Basic Concepts for Configuration-Template
External Templates
Includes four parts from customer:
Global Data
Equipment Data
Transport Data
Radio Data
Published together with every eNodeB software version(Hot patch excluded);

Import to CME to create several eNodeB in one time;
Could be used together with eNodeB template/Cell template/Radio Template
If used together with External Template and User-define template, the parameter priority order is:
External Template> Cell /Radio Template> eNodeB Template;

Procedure of Configuration by CME
Procedure of configuration eNodeB by CME
Operation Description
Prepare data Before performing the initial eNodeB configuration, you must get the data, that is
negotiated with peer NEs and the operator needs to provide.
Create eNodeB data According to the requirements of different scenarios for creating eNodeBs, select
the corresponding templates to create initial eNodeB configuration data.
Adjust eNodeB data After you create eNodeB data by importing a template, you need to adjust the
device data, transport data, and radio data of the eNodeB on the GUI of the CME
according to the actual requirement.
Check eNodeB data After creating and adjusting the initial eNodeB configuration data, you need to
verify the configuration data to ensure that the data is correct.
Export eNodeB data Export the entire configuration data of the eNodeB in .xml or EDS.zip format.
Activate data Go to M2000/WEBLMT/USB to active the data you have done on standalone CME.
Step1: Prepare Data
Purpose:
Prepare the External and eNodeB/Cell/Radio template for configuration.
Procedure:
1. Get the External Template from Support: to perform initial eNodeB configuration based on an external
template from Support.
2. Add the User Define Template : click the icon in the External Template , if you want to use the custom
eNodeB template. Otherwise, your eNodeB template name will not under the chosen list.
3. Finish the filling of External Template: for details

about the parameters, see the eNodeB MO
References and eNodeB Parameter References.
4. Prepare the eNodeB/cell/radio template in advance
if necessary.
Notice:
here
1. Different eNodeB software version has different External Template version. Must use the corresponding
External Template;
2. BTS3900/A/L/DBS3900 type sites could co-exist in one External Template;
3. The macro should be enabled for your excel. Only excel 2003s xls format is support for R10 CME.
Step2 Import External Template
Purpose:
Create eNodeBs by External Template.
Menu:
LTE Application Import eNodeB Negotiated Data
Procedure:
Select site External Template you
prepared, then import it.
Notice:
If the External Template is using certain custom eNodeB template/cell template/radio template,these custom
templates should be in the CME already.
R10 CME only support the overwrite way of import. If certain eNodeB has already existed in planed area,
there will be conflict remind to you.
Step3: Adjust eNodeB Data
You could adjust all kinds of data directly on the panel by selecting the corresponding parameters;
If you close the parameter page, CME will remind you to save the change,click yes if you want to
save,otherwise click no.
Step3 if want to
add/delete one object,
click here
Step2: double click the

parameter, modify it
Step1 choose the eNodeB/sector/cell,

then choose the paramenter group
you want to modify
You could also adjust device data by Device Panel .
Right click the board,

then change the
parameters/add/delete
the boards
Step4 Check eNode Data
Purpose:
Check whether the configuration is right, integrated .
Menu:
LTE Application Check eNodeB Data/Check eNodeB Integrity
Procedure:
After finish adjusting data, go to checking data.
By checking data, some grammatical or logical errors may be check out, and you must modify it.
Notice:
Check eNodeB Data:whether the data is legal. The same judging rules like when you doing certain illegal
configuration on MML, there will be error return back. For example, LocalCellId 12.
Check eNodeB Integrity: whether the data is integrated for commissioning. The judging rules is from the
parameters mandatory for a site. For example, at least one sector/cell/OMCH/DEVIP/S1_SIGIP/
Step5 Export eNode Data-EDS file
Purpose:
Export eNodeBs EDS file for later commissioning
EDS zip file includes three file,
M2000.xml includes all the data used by eNodeB
EDS.csv inludes information of the topo information of the eNodeB
DHCP.csv includes the information of the DHCP process
Menu:
LTE Application Export EDS File
Procedure:
Select the sites need to be exported ;
Notice:
The relationship of check and export EDS data is
If didnt do the check, will the check be If didnt pass the check ,will the forced
triggered automatically before the export? export be supported?
Check eNodeB data Y N
Check eNodeB Y Y, a reminder for manual confirm will

integrity appear.
Step5 Export eNode Data-XML file
Purpose:
Export eNodeBs XML file for WEBLMT commissioning or USB commissioning.
XML script includes all the configuration data of eNodeB
Menu:
LTE Application Export Full Script
Procedure:
Select the sites need to be exported ;
Notice:
The relationship of check and export XML script is:
If didnt do the check, will the check be If didnt pass the check ,will the forced
triggered automatically before the export? export be supported?
Check eNodeB data Y N(Integrated version support this
function)
Check eNodeB N Y, no reminder(in R11 CME, a
integrity reminder will be added)
1 Create eNodeB by GUI
Purpose:
Create one eNodeB by GUI
Menu:
LTE ApplicationCreate eNodeB
Procedure:
Prepare the custom eNodeB/cell/radio templates if
necessary. Otherwise, you can also use the system
eNodeB template.
Create eNodeB: only certain basic equipment and radio
data is created. For the rest equipment and radio data,
Custom template
and all the transmission data, need to manully added.
Check eNodeB: the same with Step4 Check eNode
Data System template
Export eNodeB data: the same with Step5 Export eNode
Data ;
Notice:
This way of configuration is suggested for one eNodeBs configuration or to create a customized template.
All the objectives which supports to be modified on Device Panel, are also supported to be modified by
2 Template Management
Purpose:
Import/Export /Delete eNodeB/cell/radio template
Menu: New scenarios
LTE Application ->Template Management Create eNodeB by GUI/or by External Template
using similar existing default/customized
eNB/cell/radio template
Procedure:
eNodeBs custom template/celltemplate/radio template
Adjust device data by device panel
can transferred from other engineer, and you just need
to import it to CME;
Adjust cell/transmission data
If a new scenario, need to create a new custom
template as the right procedure.
Check data
Notice:
Different eNodeB version requires different template.(eNodeB Save as custom
template upgrade function will be supported in CME R11). template(eNodeB/cell/radio)
Dont support the copy function of template.

the panel.
All the parameters on Device Panel
can also be modified by the GUI panel.
That is, click the parameters, then
modify the record on the right chart.
4 Incremental Script
Purpose:
For data reconfiguration case, you can modify the data for existed live eNodeB. For example, expand a
cell,etc.
Menu:
Configuration LTE configuration system Export incremental script
Procedure :
Imported the eNodeBs script by
Open/Create planed area, which includes the ADD NE function
eNodeB you want to modify.

Adjust the data;
Adjust equipment/cell/transmission data
Check the data;
Export eNodeBs incremental scripts.
Active the incremental scripts. Check data
