| 1 | 1 | lynxis | h1. RBS6402 Provisioning |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | |||
| 3 | The RBS6402 has 3 different provisioning |
||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | * generic |
||
| 6 | * standalone |
||
| 7 | * warehouse (seems to be quality assurance) |
||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | h3. How the provisioning works |
||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | The generic & standalone provisioning are quite similar. Both can be used with open5gs (or other core networks) |
||
| 12 | and do: |
||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | # get trusted CA (root CA) |
||
| 15 | # get own server certificate |
||
| 16 | # download & apply firmware upgrade |
||
| 17 | # apply configuration (netconf) |
||
| 18 | # get current time & date (e.g. ntp) |
||
| 19 | # get S1AP link (only if the cell is unlocked in netconf) |
||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | h3. Difference between generic and standalone provisioning |
||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | The standalone provisioning must be configured via the provisioning webui (interactive) and uses a ssh-ca as authentication. |
||
| 25 | Standalone can only use certificates downloaded via sftp and not via SCEP/CEP (Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol). |
||
| 26 | While the generic provisioning will be configured via https without any user interaction and uses LDAP as authentication. |
||
| 27 | 2 | lynxis | Also both use different kind of provisioning files. |

| 29 | h3. How to debug configuration or provisioning problems? |
||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | - The rbs6402 has a log file which is persistence between reboot and factory resets. It's accessible via the provisioning webui or if you use a known-good provisioning and download it via sftp. |
||
| 32 | - The rbs6402 will retry it's provisioning every 15 minutes, however there are certain error which it won't reset on it's own. |
||
| 33 | - Restart via power will work in 95% of the cases to restart the provisioning. |
||
| 34 | - Factory reset via the button will always work. |
||
| 35 | - create a pcap via tcpdump/wireshark to see the different stages. |
||
| 36 | |||
| 37 | h3. known issues |
||
| 38 | |||
| 39 | * The rbs6402 2018Q1 have sometimes problems if you configure 2x IPs within the same IP network (Host=1, Host=2). The provisioning might hang when retrieving the current time even ntp traffic looks fine. |
||
| 40 | |||
| 41 | h3. provisioning webui |
||
| 42 | |||
| 43 | The rbs6402 will open a webui when both ethernet interfaces are connected (rj45 and sfp) and have a link. The webui can also be use to watch the provisioning progress. |
||
| 44 | * IP: 10.1.1.11/24 |
||
| 45 | * http://webui:admin@10.1.1.11/ |
