Depending on changes performed in a network configuration, one or multiple equipment may need reconfiguration. Below we described which equipment needs reconfiguration based on what configuration was changed.

Network settings changes

If network settings are edited, some changes may require reconfiguration of different equipment or reconfiguration of the entire network.

General step

– YateSTP, YateUSGW, 2Greet, GrandeSTP  equipment types will automatically be disabled;

– other equipment types with SS7 support active  will need reconfiguration as ss7 support will be disable on them as well: YateHSS, YateSMSC, YateOTA, YateUCN, YateUDM, YateUCN5G, HSS Slice Members.  

– YateDRA, GrandeDRA equipment types will be disabled;

– other equipment types  with active diameter support will need reconfiguration as diameter support will be disabled on them as     well:  YateUCN, YateHSS, YateSMSC, 2Greet, YateUDM, YateUCN5G, HSS Slice Members.

– YateNRF  equipment types will be disabled;

– other equipment types with 5G support active will need reconfiguration as 5G support will be disabled on them as well: YateUDM, YateUCN5G

Slice

  • editing SCTP connection in SS7 step will require reconfiguration for its Slice Members and both GrandeSTP
  • editing STP routing in SS7 step will require reconfiguration for its Slice Members only
  • editing Listener in Diameter step will require reconfiguration for its Slice Members and GrandeDRA that are linked to
  • adding new Listener in Diameter Step will require reconfiguration for its Slice members and GrandeDRA that is linked to
  • adding / editing values in HSS step will require reconfiguration for its Slice member only
  • adding slice without members will be no equipment to reconfigure
  • editing slice without members will be no equipment to reconfigure
  • deleting slice without members will be no equipment to reconfigure
  • It is not allowed to delete slice with members
  • disabling / enabling SS7 / Diameter support will require reconfiguration for Grande DRA / Grande STP and Slice members

Slice members

  • adding, editing or deleting member with SS7 support will require reconfiguration to GrandeSTPs and Members from current Slice
  • deleting member with SS7 / Diameter support will need reconfiguration for both GrandeDRA and Memebers from current Slice
  • adding member with SS7 / Diameter support will need reconfiguration for both GrandeDRA and Memebers from current Slice
  • editing Slice member will require reconfiguration for Members from current Slice
  • disabling / enabling member will require reconfiguration for GrandeSTP/GrandeDRA
  • adding / deleting members of a slice will automatically require reconfiguration for all slice members (due to cluster support)
  • add edit or delete IP and Port from Clustering configuration will require reconfiguration all slice members
