Huawei RAN

OSS and NOC

Hello All,

In my current project I have to manage Huawei RAN BBu, however all my experience is on Ericsson RAN BBU. As a fresher into Huawei RAN what all things I have to start with, preferably must known commands. Please let me know

Coming from Ericsson, the fastest way in is to map the verbs — the object-model idea is the same, only the syntax and names change.

Syntax model: Huawei MML is verb + object : KEY=VALUE, comma-separated, semicolon-terminated. Example: DSP CELL: LocalCellId=0; Read with DSP/LST (no rights needed), change with MOD/ADD/RMV.

Verb map from Ericsson (moshell/AMOS):

  • get → LST (list configured parameters)
  • st / real-time state → DSP (display dynamic status)
  • set → MOD
  • create / delete → ADD / RMV
  • bl / deb (block/deblock) → BLK / UBL (and ACT / DEA for cells)
  • al (alarms) → the alarm query group (see the reference thread below)

Must-know starter set:

  • REQ CMCTRL; — seize MML operation rights before any MOD/ADD/RMV. Read commands don’t need it. This has no Ericsson equivalent and is the #1 thing that trips Ericsson people — your modify command fails until you grab control.
  • DSP BRD; — board status (UMPT / UBBP / UPEU / FAN health). First command every session.
  • DSP BRDVER; / LST SOFTWARE; — HW/SW versions.
  • DSP CELL: LocalCellId=0; — is the cell up? (≈ st cell)
  • LST CELL: LocalCellId=0; — cell configuration (≈ get EUtranCellFDD)
  • ACT CELL / DEA CELL — bring a cell up/down; BLK CELL / UBL CELL to block/unblock
  • DSP SFP; / DSP ETHPORT; — optical + Ethernet transport port status
  • LST ENODEBFUNCTION; / LST GNODEBFUNCTION; — the top NE function MO (≈ the ENodeBFunction / GNBCUCP root)

Three things different from Ericsson:

  • LMT (per-site web console) ≈ your Element Manager; MAE (ex-U2000/U2020) is the OSS north ≈ ENM. Learn LMT first for hands-on.
  • Config is applied live per command; batch changes go as MML scripts (≈ mo scripts) or through MAE.
  • Type a verb and use the LMT assist/HELP to get the parameter form — the command tree is your friend while learning object names.

Ready reference on the same forum with the everyday troubleshooting commands and screenshots: “Routine Troubleshooting MML Commands in Huawei” (topic 30905). Start there, then keep the MML Command Reference for your exact BBU version open alongside — command availability tracks the version (V100R0xx).
