The first step to connect UMTS-BOX2 to Simbox is to add and configure the RSIM resource. One RSIM resource can be use by more than one UMTS-BOX/SIMBOX so:
one or more SIMBOX can “LISTEN” on an RSIM resource
one or more UMTS-BOX2 can “CALL” through an RSIM resource
Add the resource and activate it:
[23:34:16] ABILIS_CPX:a res:rsim-1
COMMAND EXECUTED [23:36:30] ABILIS_CPX:s p rsim-1 act:yes
COMMAND EXECUTED [23:36:56] ABILIS_CPX:d p rsim-1
RES:RSim-1 - Not Saved (SAVE CONF), Not Refreshed (INIT) ---------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCR: LOG:NO ACT:YES mxps:512 sesnum:64 sess-buf:3 udp-locport:60000 TOS:0-N RP1-DLY:100 RP2-DLY:200 ACK-TOUT:2000 MAX-RETRY:2 POLLTIME:60 - Server --------------------------------------------------------------- IP-FILTER:* - Client --------------------------------------------------------------- SRCADD:R-ID (192.168.000.201)
Remember to save the configuration and that on a working Abilis, a system restart is required. Below there's a short description of the most important parameters:
[23:38:04] ABILIS_CPX:d p rsim ?
RSim resource parameter(s):
DESCR: Resource description [Max. 80 aphanumeric extended characters]
LOG: State changes log and alarm generation [NO, D, S, A, L, T, ALL] [+E]
(D: Debug Log; S: System Log; A: Alarm view; L: Local audible alarm;
T: SNMP traps; +E: Extended Log of state changes, see ref. manual)
ACT: Operation activation [NO, YES]
mxps: Maximal size of packets exchanged with upper driver (UMTS or SIMBOX)
[300..2048]
sesnum: Number of sessions [1..250]
sess-buf: Number of buffers in each channel receiver [1..10]
udp-locport: Local UDP port [1..65535]
TOS: Type Of Service octet or Differentiated Services Field (DS):
-' p-t', i.e. PRECEDENCE and TOS values, where 'p' can be [0..7]
and 't' can be [N=None, D=Min. Delay, T=Max. Throughput, R=Max.
Reliability, C=Min. Monetary Cost]
- 'bbbbbb', i.e. DS value bit by bit, where 'b' can be [0, 1]
RP1-DLY: Time to wait between the first transmission and the first repetition
of a packet [NO, 50..1000 msec.]
RP2-DLY: Time to wait between the first and second repetition of a packet
[NO, 50..1000 msec.]
ACK-TOUT: Maximal time to wait for ACK after transmission of a packet
[1000..5000 msec.]
MAX-RETRY: Maximal number of consecutive retries when ACK-TOUT expires [0..5]
POLLTIME: Inactivity interval after which a POLL packet is sent [15..300 sec.]
---------- - Server -----------------------------------------------------------
IP-FILTER: IP addresses filter for incoming sessions [*, 1-126.x.x.x,
127.0.0.1, 128-223.x.x.x, 'list']
---------- - Client -----------------------------------------------------------
SRCADD: Source IP address used in outgoing requests [R-ID, OUT-IP,
1-126.x.x.x, 127.0.0.1, 128-223.x.x.x]
Type on the CP the following commands to add the Simbox device and to activate it:
[21:37:08] ABILIS_CPX:a dev:simbox-1
COMMAND EXECUTED [21:37:19] ABILIS_CPX:d dev
... ------------------ Active USB Devices and Physical Resources: ----------------- Device(s) Run Con Physical Resource(s) or CTI Port(s) USBPORTID ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... SIMBOX-1 Yes No SimBox-1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.2 ... [21:39:13] ABILIS_CPX:s p simbox-1 act:yes
Remember to save the configuration and that on a working Abilis, a system restart is required
Use the below command to view the configuration of the resource.
[18:37:07] ABILIS_CPX:d p simbox-1
RES:SimBox-1 ------------------------------------------------------------------
Run DESCR:
LOG:NO ACT:YES mxps:512
RSIM-RES:NONE
RSIM-PWD:
Now the parameter RSIM-RES must be configured to use the rsim resource activated above.
[23:46:32] ABILIS_CPX:s p simbox rsim-res:rsim-1
COMMAND EXECUTED [23:46:48] ABILIS_CPX:d p simbox-1
RES:SimBox-1 - Not Saved (SAVE CONF), Not Refreshed (INIT) -------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCR: LOG:NO ACT:NO mxps:512 RSIM-RES:RSim-1 RSIM-PWD:
Normally there's no need to change the default remaining parameters, at most a password can be set to protect access. Type s p simbox-1 rsim-pwd:testpwd to set the word testpwd as password.
The same password must be used in all UMTS-BOX2 that need to connect to this Simbox (the parameter RSIM-PWD). Remeber to save the configuration and to initialize the resource using init res:simbox-1
Assuming that:
an UMTS-BOX2 is connected to Abilis
the ctip resource to use is ctip 201
the parameter RSIM is setted to PERMANENT
type the command s p ctip:201 rsim-simbox-id:1 to associate the UMTS-BOX2 to Simbox. Refer to UMTS-BOX2 remotization to learn more about UMTS-BOX2 configuration. Remeber to save the configuration and to initialize the CTISYS resource using init res:ctisys.
