Mastering End-to-End 4G Technology
Master your knowledge in 4G technology with this hands-on training. Deep dive into 4G architecture and protocols and develop your skills through practical exercises and real-world scenarios.
Lab Architecture
This Hands-On Training consists of a virtualized Evolved Packet Core (EPC) alongside a radio access network and a UE that allows the user to simulate different 4G scenarios.
Why this Lab?
You will be able to configure main 4G nodes (eNodeB, MME, HSS, DNS, PGW and SGW), make use cases like registration and calls, analyze the PCAP traces for the different protocols (GTP, Diameter and DNS).
Lab Objectives
– Understanding the EPC protocols: GTP, S1-AP, NAS, Diameter and DNS.
– Understanding the E2E 4G architecture.
– Configuring the EPC core of the LAB: provisioning a subscriber, DIAMETER configuration, DNS configuration, creating an APN as well as the PCC rules and configuring IP.
– Executing scenarios with the 4G network: attachment, paging, detachment, Mobility QOS, user plane.
– Debugging and analyzing network traces.
– Analyzing the messages and protocols.
Prerequisites
- – TCP/IP basics
- – Linux basics  
- – Telco basics
