Mobile logger¶
This task lets you log mobile network parameters using a Test Agent that has a mPCIe 4G modem in it. Besides 4G (LTE), this device also supports 3G (WCDMA) and 2G (GSM) mobile networks. Note that this only works with Test Agents specifically supplied from Juniper Networks with this extra hardware support.
You can change the mobile interface and its settings (APN, RAT, band) using the Mobile switcher utility.
Parameters¶
See the common parameters page for the following:
Parameters that are set on the test step level: Duration, Fail threshold, and Wait for ready.
SLA thresholds for monitors: SLA Good and SLA Acceptable.
Advanced settings common to all test tasks: Delayed start.
General¶
Clients: Test Agent mobile interfaces to log.
Thresholds for errored seconds (ES)¶
For each of the following thresholds, Paragon Active Assurance will indicate an errored second if the quantity drops below the threshold during that second.
RSSI (dBm): Received Signal Strength Indication (mobile technology independent measurement).
Min: −120 dBm. Max: −25 dBm. Default: −100 dBm.RSRP (dBm): Reference Signal Received Power (LTE).
Min: −140 dBm. Max: −44 dBm. Default: −95 dBm.RSCP (dBm): Received Signal Code Power (WCDMA).
Min: −120 dBm. Max: −25 dBm. Default: −85 dBm.RSRQ (dB): Reference Signal Received Quality (LTE).
Min: −19.5 dB. Max: −3 dB. No default.Ec/Io (dB): Per-chip signal-to-noise ratio (WCDMA).
Min: −32 dB. Max: 0 dB. Default: −13 dB.SINR (dB): Signal to interference-plus-noise ratio (LTE).
Min: −20 dB. Max: 30 dB. Default: 10 dB.
