This feature is useful in scenarios where eNB is behind a NAT and EPC on public cloud
Since eNB's GTP-U can only bind to IP address visible in it's host (usually a private IP beind a NAT), it advertises the same to UE in S1AP message
resulting in traffic from EPC to eNB (DL traffic) not able to reach eNB. This commit solves this issue by providing a means to advertise a different IP address than the one GTP-U UDP socket is bound to.
This IP is usually advertised in InitialContextSetupResponse and E-RABSetupResponse.
In order to make use of this feature, use the following parameter in enb.conf
Example:
gtp_advertise_addr = 213.61.141.82
* Reorder DCI FORMAT enum
* Fix endianness issue
* Fix return codes in phy_ue_db
* Log members should be destructed after the layers.
* Add JSON metrics and Events. Add Alarm log channel. Simplify MAC metrics struct.
* Restore metrics_stdout change
as 3400 or 2.685 GHz is on the edge of band 7, some phones won't connect
to a 20 MHz cell on this EARFCN.
In order to simplify testing with other bandwidths we change the default EARFCN.
the examples are commented but by just uncommenting those
two lines the user should be able to run a eNB and UE on the same
machine in SISO mode over ZMQ
- move cell specific eNB params to cell list in rr.conf
- make sure DL EARFCN and DL freq can be used to manually overwrite a single cell config
- fix SIB packing and transmission for multi cell configs
- introduce cell list to MAC
- adapt default enb.conf.example and rr.conf.example
The documentation talks about a MAC protocol trace, but in fact
it is only a protocol trace of dedicated channels. There's a related
define in the source code, but that's not documented.
Let's at least make the user aware that the MAC pcap trace is
for dedicated channels only, unless he uses that #define.
- this remove RF calibration parameters that were an extra
section in the eNB/UE config but were hardly used (only old bladeRF)
- a better way to pass those parameter would be through the
device args in the normal rf config section
