The eNodeB Security Node/Target eNodeB Security Node provides a separate Security Gateway (interface used for all IPSec traffic) that terminates the per eNodeB tunnel (extends tunnel up to the MME and/or SGW), when you select S1-IPSec/Target S1-IPSec on MME Nodal Test Configuration tab.
With an Ethernet node, you can define:
The IP address and routing options... The IP Address will increment for each node.
The MAC Address to override the Hardware MAC address so the packets sent out of the interface will use the provisioned MAC address rather the Hardware MAC Address.
Custom port selection... and error injection with the Advanced... button.
Select default routing that were configured for the test server.
Select the Next Hop IP Address instead of using the test server's default route.
The Outbound Traffic Port to disable the normal routing function and to force packets out of the selected interface.
NOTE: In the MME Nodal Test case, if MAC Address for the following nodes is configured, then MAC address per eNodeB will increment by 1 based on the configured MAC address. Target eNodeB Control Node, Target eNodeB Security Node, Target eNodeB User Node, eNodeB Control Node, eNodeB Security Node and eNodeB User Node. |
