The Info tab in the Test Session window provides the ability to monitor and "live-view" individual UE States/Information. Currently available in WiFi Offload Gateway Nodal (with RF Interface, GRE, CAPWAP, No Tunnel and Hybrid Access) and AMF Nodal, AMF Node, HA Nodal, IP Application Node with VoLTE, MME Nodal, Network Host and SGW Nodal, UPF Nodal for various Test Activity options.
NOTEs:
|
NOTE: May get NULL Values for items that are not reported by your test case. When setting a UE Info Level X (1 to 10), that means that the UE Info component will include fields A, B, and C. But that does not mean the test will always report B or C, thus the UE Info report will show a column for B or C and it would be null. for example, if using level 9 and you do not do a POLQA on Default Bearer, you will get POLQA columns, but they will always be null. |

Test Case Interface | Test Case - List of available Test Cases that can be monitored. If no test cases are supported this will be displayed on Info Tab: ![]() ![]() ![]()
|
Enabled | Use this Flag to Enable the Test Case for monitoring. Cannot Enable/Disable during "Live" test. |
Monitor First UE | Enter First UE in the Test Case to monitor. Default = 1. Cannot edit during "Live run". |
Monitor Total UEs | Enter total number of UEs to monitor. Default = 1000. Cannot edit during "Live run". |
Live/ Report First UE | Enter First UE to monitor. Default = 1. Able to change during "Live" run. |
Live/ Report Total UEs | Enter Total UEs to Monitor. Default = 32. Able to change during "Live" run. See Example of "Live" run below. If changed to zero during live run, reporting will stop however monitoring is still on. If total assignments to monitor exceeds the 1000/32 UE limits, this error will be displayed: ![]() |
Report Interval (s) | Enter the Report Interval. How often the TS will report updated values for the UEs being monitored. If changed to zero during live run, a final update will be generated for all live UEs and periodic updates will stop. Range : 0 to 60 seconds (See Error if not in range) ![]() |
NOTE: When the Antennas report their ON/OFF status to the Info tab, they report it starting from the left and move right through all the Antennas. Once it encounters an Antenna in the off mode, it will stop scanning for Antenna status. For example, if Ant 1 and Ant 3 are turned on but Ant 2 is turned off, the Info tab will display that 1 Antenna is enabled. If Ant 1 is off and Ant 2 and Ant 3 are enabled, the Info tab will display no Antenna information. |
May change the range of UEs being monitored live, by clicking on the button and changing the UE ranges.
The Live UE Info page has a few other features.
May switch current viewing Test Case , (as in Measurements/Reports.

The End Of Test Criteria allows you to set up Pass/Fail Criteria based on the values inside the UE Info report. You define them on a test case basis via the Info Tab.
NOTEs:
|
The overall Pass/Fail Status of the test is calculated based on the ANDing of overall pass fail criteria, plus each Test Case UE Info Criteria. On the main Pass/Fail tab, there is an summary indication of Test Case UE Info Criteria Status.
On the End of Test Criteria sub tab, the Test Case list will indicate a summary Status for each Test Case. You can click on each Test Case to see the detailed list of criteria for that test case:
Criteria Status PENDING:
If your TC doesn't have any UE Info Criteria, it's status will be PENDING.
PENDING is ignored in calculating the overall Criteria status, it is like saying we didn't do it for one reason or another.
If your UE Info Status is PENDING, but you have defined Criteria for that TC, check your setup: check your UE Info Enabler, UE Info Level, info_report itself.
You should not define UE Info Criteria until you have first configured your test, executed it and analyzed the info_report to understand what fields are there and their values.
The Test Case -level UE Info PF-Status is reported in the Run Log, and this hooks into the "failures" link on results website.
On results website you have the Criteria Failures link:

NOTE: For UE Info Criteria to work properly, UE Info monitoring must be enabled, UE Info Level should be set to 10 on Test Server Configuration (or less if you know which fields are produced). |
Use the UE Criterion Editor (Add/View/Edit) to create Info Pass/Fail Criteria.
