Monitoring Function
The topology view provides a dynamic network topology graph, displaying the
operation status of managed networks in real time. It monitors configuration changes
and fault alarms.
The topology graph also displays records of adding and deleting NEs and the
configuration information of NEs, while informing users of these changes. By using
regular synchronization, you cannot only view dynamic status of configuration
changes in network devices, but also set the updating cycle of configuration
information.
Fault Monitoring: The topology graph can display fault generated in lower-level
network element management systems in the format of visual and audio alarms.
The system also distinguishes between different alarm severity levels by using
different icon colors of faulty NEs. Acknowledged, unacknowledged, handled and
removed faults are also displayed in different ways.

3.1 Overview
Alarm information is displayed if a fault or prompt message occurs during system
operation. The fault management module monitors the operational status of the U31
R22 system in a centralized manner, and collects real-time alarms and notifications of
boards, databases, and the server. If a fault occurs, the module immediately displays
the accurate fault information to help the administrator locate and troubleshoot the fault
for stable operation of the system.
3.1.1 Fault Management Terms
The fault management module provides a maintenance tool for monitoring the operational
status of the U31 R22 system and collecting real-time alarms and notifications of boards,
databases, and the server.
If a fault occurs, the module immediately displays the accurate fault information to help
the administrator locate and troubleshoot the fault for stable operation of the system.
In addition, the module also provides accurate, timely, and necessary alarm data for
operators, network management departments, and vendors.
Alarm
An alarm is a prompt message indicating faults that occur during the system operation and
have negative effects on the system service and reliability.

SJ-20141211100735-007|2014-12-30 (R5.0)
ZTE Proprietary and Confidential
NetNumen™ U31 R22 Operation Guide (Common Operations)
This kind of faults may impact the proper system operation. Therefore, once it occurs, the
user must immediately find out the cause and troubleshoot it.
Notification
Notification is reported when a fault or event that cannot be recovered occurs in the
network, such as the restart of a board and the fake power failure of a board.
Such faults or events are generally caused by some occasional factors, such as the sudden
change of the environment. Therefore, no special handling is required for notifications.
However, if a notification is displayed frequently, it is required to find out the cause and
troubleshoot it.
Active alarm
An active alarm indicates the occurrence of a fault that has not been removed yet.
History Alarm
A history alarm indicates the occurrence of a fault that has already been removed.
Visible and Invisible Alarms
After the alarm filtering rule becomes effective, some alarms become invisible alarms (such
as the queried alarms after alarm filtering), and other alarms are visible alarms.
Alarm Clearing
A notification that an alarm has been cleared is reported after the corresponding fault is
successfully removed.
Alarm Shielding
The alarms are not reported to the NMS server in accordance with customized conditions.
Alarm Code
An alarm code is a unique sequence number used to identify an alarm for fault
management.

3.11 Alarm and Notification Monitoring
If a fault or problem of a site device is detected, the monitoring tool generates an alarm.
The user can clear the fault or problem when detecting the alarm information.
3.11.1 Alarm Monitoring Policies
Alarm Monitoring Principles
The principles of the alarm monitoring are as follows.
l
l
Critical and major alarms should be handled immediately, otherwise severe
consequences may be incurred. Therefore, such alarms should be sent to the
operator's cell phone with audio indications.
For minor alarms and warnings, the system sends background alarms and SMS
alarms to related staff to inform system faults and hidden risks. Related staff can
then monitor system performance, analyze reasons and handle these alarms.
Recommended Alarm Monitoring Policies
Recommended alarm monitoring policies are as follows.
l
Severity Priority Policy
The system forwards alarms on the highest severity level first when alarms of various
severity levels occur at the same time.
l
Time Priority Policy
To minimize the influence of faults on services, immediately handling is required
once some alarms are reported. To ensure the timely notification of alarms to related
personnel, an audio indication or a short message should be used to inform the
alarm.
l
Multi-Receiver Policy
3-67
SJ-20141211100735-007|2014-12-30 (R5.0)
ZTE Proprietary and Confidential
NetNumen™ U31 R22 Operation Guide (Common Operations)
In the alarm server, set multiple receiver on the server. This can ensure the alarm can
be handled in time.
l
Multi-Way Policy
If only one way is used to send alarm information, immediate troubleshooting is
unavailable when this way fails to work. Therefore, it is recommended to adopt
multiple ways at the same time to avoid this case.
3.11.2 Alarm Monitoring Methods
Alarm Monitoring Methods
You can use any of the following three methods to monitor alarms in a network.
l
l
l
Monitoring alarms via U31 R22
Monitoring alarms via short message
Monitoring alarms via E-mail
Comparison of Different Monitoring Methods
The tree methods can all monitor fault alarms. However, only monitoring via U31 R22
provides the function of checking system performance. The other two only provide alarm
information.
3.11.3 Alarm Monitoring via U31 R22
Objective
The fault management module monitors the whole U31 R22 system. When a part of the
system encounters a fault, the alarm service process sends an alarm message to the
server.
Function
Through U31 R22 alarm monitoring, the users can view performance statistics and alarm
information, so that they can analyze corresponding reasons.
Query Methods
To query alarm monitoring of the U31 R22, log in to the U31 R22 and query alarms on the
Fault Management window.
3.11.4 Alarm Monitoring via Short Message and E-mail
Description
Set the cell phone numbers and E-mail addresses of monitoring personnel in the
alarm forwarding template, and the alarm information will be sent to the monitoring

4.1 Performance Management Overview
The U31 R22 system provides a diversity of performance management functions for
monitoring the operation status of microwave transmission equipment to ensure the
efficiency, stability, and security of the managed network. It collects performance
data from the network, analyzes the collected data, and then provides the network
administrator with sufficient and complete information for the operation and maintenance
of the network. The network administrator can make appropriate operation policies based
on the network status to guarantee high-efficiency operation of the network.
The performance management functions of the U31 R22 can be grouped into the following
four types:
l
Customization of Data Collection Tasks
By customizing a data collection task, you can enable the system to collect specific
performance data.
l
Performance Data Collection
The system collects performance data and stores the collected data in its database in
accordance with predefined performance tasks.
l
Performance Data Query
The system supports the query of performance data that has been collected and
stored in the database. It displays the query result on the client interface.
l
Performance Threshold Management
The system supports the setting of upper and lower thresholds for key performance
indexes. Once the value of an index is higher than the upper threshold or lower than

the lower threshold, the fault management module of the system can raise a threshold
crossing alarm.
4.1.1 Term Overview
The following explains the basic concepts for your better understanding of performance
management operations described in this manual.
l
Measure Object
Measure object can be a physical entity, a logic entity, or the combination of physical
entities and logic entities that need to be measured.
l
Measurement Type
Measurement type is a basic element of measurement that supports the measurement
of different indexes of a measure object. Different measure objects involve different
measurement types. You can select a measurement type for a measurement
according to the indexes you want to measure.
l
Counter
Counter is a specific measurement index involved in a measurement type. Each
measurement type has a number of measurement indexes.
l
Collection Granularity
Collection granularity refers to the cycle of collecting data from boards in network
devices. The collection granularity can be set to 5 minutes, 15 minutes, or 1 hour.
Note:
The U31 R22 only supports the collection granularity of 15 minutes.
l
Calculation Index
Calculation index is used to evaluate equipment performance. It is the arithmetic result
of related measurement items. The system already presets some calculation indexes
for generic applications.
l
QoS
Quality of Service (QoS) is a network security mechanism and technology used
to solve network delay and congestion problems. It prevents important services
from being delayed or discarded when the network is overloaded or congested, and
therefore guarantees high-efficiency operation of the network.
l
Measurement Task
Measurement task refers to a user-defined performance measurement task. After you
schedule and activate a measurement task, the system will automatically collect the
values of required performance parameters in accordance with the preset cycle. You
4-2
SJ-20141211100735-007|2014-12-30 (R5.0)
ZTE Proprietary and Confidential
Chapter 4 Performance Management
can know the network status by observing the performance statistics provided by the
system.
l
Threshold Task
Threshold task, also called QoS task, reflects the service quality of network devices.
A threshold task is used to monitor the values of specific performance indexes. When
the calculated value of an index exceeds the upper threshold or lower than the preset
lower threshold preset in the task, a threshold crossing alarm is raised. When the
calculated value during a later measurement period is within the threshold range, the
threshold crossing alarm is cleared.

By setting performance thresholds, you can modify the digital performance thresholds of
the CTN NEs.
Context
Digital performance threshold is classified into 15-minute performance threshold and
24-hour performance threshold by the performance measurement period.
l
15-minute digital performance threshold has two performance threshold settings.
à
Uni-threshold: In a period of 15 minutes, when a performance value exceeds
the maximum threshold, the system will automatically raise the performance
threshold crossing alarm. When each 15-minute period arrives, the alarm is
displayed, and all the performance values will be cleared and will be counted
from zero again.
à
Bi-threshold: In a period of 15 minutes, when a performance value exceeds
the maximum threshold, the system will automatically raise the performance
threshold crossing alarm. When each 15-minute period arrives, the alarm is
displayed, and all the performance values will be cleared and will be counted

from zero again. When in another 15-minute period, the performance count is
lower than the minimum threshold from the start to the end, the system will raise
the performance threshold crossing alarm after 15 minutes.
l
Digital 24-hour performance threshold: The 24-hour threshold is a uni-threshold. In a
period of 24 hours, when a performance value exceeds the maximum threshold, the
system will automatically raise the performance threshold crossing alarm. When the
period ends, the alarm is displayed, and all the performance values will be cleared
and will be counted from zero again.

4.4.1 Introduction to Query Template and Template Task
This procedure describes how to open the Template Task window through the
performance and statistic menu item in the main men.
Query Template
A query template can be used for performance data query. By setting and saving query
conditions in a query template, you can conveniently query performance data based on
the preset query conditions.
Template Task
Either query template or common template can be used to schedule a performance data
query task, that is, a template task. The system can automatically start performance data
query in accordance with the settings in the template task and save the query result on the
server.

You can check the execution result of a template task to get the performance data you
want. By using the template task, it is unnecessary to set query conditions one by one
because the query template or common template in the template task already specifies
the query conditions, including the query granularity, NE location, and the MO location.
To open the Template Task tab in the client window, do one of the following:
l

4.4.3 Query Template Operations
A query template can be used for performance data query. By setting and saving query
conditions in a query template, you can easily query performance data based on the preset
query conditions.
The parameters set in a query template include query indexes, query objects, and query
time.
A query template can be exported or imported between different U31 R22 systems.
4.4.3.1 Customizing a Performance Query Template
To query different types of performance values more conveniently, you can set common
performance query templates according to the actual service in the network.
Context
Performance templates include common templates, current performance query templates,
and history performance data query templates.
l
l
The common template does not include query object/location selection information.
It applies to the following two scenarios: selecting the NE in the topology, and then
querying according to the template. Or, when querying according to the template,
selecting the target NE.
When the current performance query template and history performance data query
template are created, the query object/location selection information is included. They
apply to the query on the specified NE according to the template. The two templates
cannot be selected when the NE is selected in the topology view and then query is
performed according to the template.

4.5.3.1 Overview of Performance Data Integrity Report
The integrity of collected performance data is the base that ensures the accurate query,
statistics, analysis and report of performance data.
The U31 R22 system collects performance data according to the conditions set in
measurement tasks and stores the collected performance data in its database when the
managed NEs and the U31 R22 server are running properly and the communication
between them is normal. When the connection between an NE and the server is
interrupted, U31 R22 cannot collect the performance data of the NE, which impairs the
integrity of performance data.
U31 R22 provides the function of performance data integrity report. By using this function,
you can check the integrity of performance data of each measurement type stored in the
database and find the period(s) during the required performance data is absent.

4.7 Counter and Index Management
4.7.1 Introduction to Counter and Index Management
The management objects of a performance threshold task (also called threshold task) are
counters and/or indexes. You can define a threshold task for monitoring specific index(es).
To define an index, you need to specify its name, formula and type.
Performance indexes can be classified into the following four types in accordance with
their importance and usage.
l
Key Performance Index (KPI)
A KPI is an index that indicates a key performance of a network. The purpose of a
threshold task is to monitor one or more KPIs. When the system detects that the value
of a KPI exceeds the threshold range specified in the task, a threshold crossing alarm
is raised. Threshold crossing alarms are classified into four levels by severity: critical,
major, minor and warning. All KPI threshold crossing alarms have the same alarm
code.
l
Performance Index (PI)
A PI is a common index that indicates a network performance. A PI is for a single
object measured.
l
Statistical Performance Index (SPI)
An SPI is the count of a measure object based on a specific statistic rule. AN SPI is
for a type of measured objects. A statistic rule is a logic expression, for example, call
completion ratio ≥ 95%.
l
User-defined Performance Index

ZTE Proprietary and Confidential
Chapter 4 Performance Management
You can also define and manage performance index in accordance with the actual
requirements in the system. If a customized index is not used any longer, you can
modify or delete the formula of the index.
l
l
Note:
The default indexes provided by the system cannot be modified or deleted.
The value of each counter in a KPI formula comes from basic measured data.
KPIs can be used in the following scenarios:
l
Creation of Threshold Task
Only KPIs are used in threshold tasks. If a KPI is used in a threshold task, the
system determines whether to raise a threshold crossing alarm after comparing the
KPI value with the preset thresholds in accordance with the threshold task. The
threshold crossing alarms that are triggered by different KPIs have the same alarm
code but different details.
l
Query of KPI Value
On request of querying the value of a KPI, the system calculates the value in
accordance with the KPI formula and displays the calculation result on the client
interface. The system can also query corresponding counters from the database to
calculate the history value of a KPI. It displays the calculation result of the history KPI
value, which reflects the variation of the KPI during a period.
l
Generation of KPI Report
The system provides several report templates based on KPI formulas for generating
KPI reports. You can know the operation status of the network by checking the
value variation of KPIs in busy hours from the KPI reports generated based on these
templates, which reflect the operation status of the network.

Down
The smaller the value the more serious the alarm level
Up and Down
The "Up and Down" direction means that the index follows the alarm
threshold rules in both "Up" and "Down" directions. For example,
the environment temperature and the rotate speed of fans must be
within a proper range, which cannot be too high or too low.

Parameter
Description
Critical
Critical alarms are generated when the performance indices exceed
Major
the critical value. When the performance indices are lower than the
critical value, alarms are removed.
Minor
Warning
When the direction is "Up", set the thresholds based on the following
constraints:
l
Warning alarm threshold < Minor alarm threshold - Delta
l
Minor alarm threshold < Major alarm threshold - Delta
l
Major alarm threshold < Critical alarm threshold - Delta
When the direction is "Down", set the thresholds based on the
following constraints:
l
Warning alarm threshold > Minor alarm threshold + Delta
l
Minor alarm threshold > Major alarm threshold + Delta
l
Major alarm threshold > Critical alarm threshold + Delta
The unit of alarm thresholds is related to the unit of the measurement
items.
Delta
A performance threshold consists of a threshold value and a delta
(that is, a hysteresis value).
The purpose of a delta is to avoid frequent switching between alarm
generation and disappearance. A performance threshold with a
delta actually provides two thresholds: a higher threshold and a
lower threshold.
For example, suppose the threshold for critical alarm is 30% and
corresponding delta is 2%. Then the higher threshold for critical
alarm of the performance index is 32%; while the lower threshold is
28%. If the delta of a threshold is 0, we can consider that the higher
threshold and the lower threshold are equal.
8. Click OK to finish the configuration.
Note:
The system judges the validity of the index formula. If the index formula is invalid,
a message will pop up to prompt the error. If the index formula is valid, the system
prompts the successful creation of the index and allocates a unique ID to the index.
The new index is displayed in corresponding index list

6.1 Overview
6.1.1 Overview of Security Management
U31 R22 provides security management functions to ensure proper and reliable operation
of the U31 R22. By using the security management functions, the system administrator
can create security policies, maintain user accounts and manage roles, role sets and
departments. In addition, the administrator can assign different authorities to different
users so that these users are limited to access and manage certain network resources.
The security management functions of the U31 R22 can be classified into two parts:
l
l
Security policy customization: Security policies are applicable to all users of the
system, such as the user account management rule and the security event rule.
Integrated management of roles, role sets, operation sets, departments and users:
The integrated management functions support the system administrator to specify
operation and management policies for individual users.
Select Security from the main menu. The submenus are displayed, see Figure 6-1.

6.1.2 Basic Concepts in Security Management
To better understand the security management model, it is necessary to first introduce
some basic concepts, including role, role set, operation set, department, and user.
l
Role
A role specifies the management permission for a user group, including the operation
permission and manageable resources.
à
The operation permission defines what specific functional modules of the
U31 R22 that the user group can use. For example, if a role has the operation
permission of the log management module, the users with the role can perform
log management operations, such as querying and maintaining logs.
à
The manageable resources defines the subnetworks and/or network elements
that the role can manage.
6-3
SJ-20141211100735-007|2014-12-30 (R5.0)
ZTE Proprietary and Confidential
NetNumen™ U31 R22 Operation Guide (Common Operations)
Note:
Operation permission and manageable resources define two aspects of the role’s
authority. The definition of the two aspects is independent of each other. But role’s
authorities are defined by the two aspects together. For example, if a role has the
operation permission of log management, and its manageable resources are base
stations, the actual authority of the role is to manage the logs of base stations.
l
Role Set
A role set is a combination of roles. The management permission of a role set involves
the authorities of all roles in the role set.
After specifying a role set, you can easily assign authorities to a system administrator
or subnetwork administrator by giving the management permissions of all roles in the
role set to the administrator at a time.
l
Operation Set
An operation set is a combination of operations assigned to a role. An operation set is
assigned to a role, which has the permission of all operations specified in the operation
set.
l
Department
Departments are specified in the U31 R22 to simulate the actual administrative
departments. In this way, the system administrator can easily organize and manage
users in the U31 R22. A newly-created user must belong to a department.
Note:
By default, a newly-created user belongs to the root department of the system unless
specially required.
l
User
A user is an operator who is authorized to log in to the system and perform
operations in the system. While creating a user, the system administrator assigns
the management permission to the user by specifying a role or role set and allocates
the user to a department in accordance with the actual situation.
6.1.3 Relation Model
The relations among user, role, role set, department, operation permission, and
manageable resources are illustrated in Figure 6-3.
6-4
SJ-20141211100735-007|2014-12-30 (R5.0)
ZTE Proprietary and Confidential
Chapter 6 Security Management
Figure 6-3 Relation Model of Security Management
The following explains the relation model of security management.
l
l
l
l
A user is administered by a department.
The management permission of a user depends on the role set assigned to the user.
A role set includes one role or a series of roles. Accordingly, the management
permission of a role set is the collection of management permissions of all roles in
the role set.
The management authority of a role depends on the operation permission and
manageable resources specified for the role.
6.1.4 Security Management Solution
After fully understanding the relation model of security management, you can work out
a security management solution in accordance with the network scale, administrative
division, and permission allocation.
Suppose a telecommunication operator in a province plans to use the U31 R22 system
to manage all digital microwave transmission devices over the province. Several branch
offices are distributed in the province. Each office only manages the devices in the area

6.3 Role Management
By using the role management functions, you can perform the following operations:
l Specifying the operation permission and manageable resources of a role.
l Setting the IP address range that can be used by a role.
l Locking or unlocking a role.
If a role is locked, the user as the role cannot use the operation permission of the role.
After an authorized user logs in to the NMS, the user only can perform the operations
within the role authority range, view the authorized NEs and perform the corresponding
operations on these NEs. The unauthorized NEs are not visible.
The role management is the basis of role set management and user management. Roles
are members of a role set. A user must be assigned with a role or a role set before logging
in to the system. Therefore, proper definition and assignment of roles is the foundation for
security management.
The U31 R22 supports the following role management functions:

6.7 User Management
User management is the most important part of security management.
By using user management functions, the system administrator can create users, query
the information of users, modify users, assign rights to users, set the working period for
users, query the login logs of users, delete users, and lock users.
In actual operation, you can use the name and password of a created user to log in to
the U31 R22 system and perform network management operations that are consistent
with the operation authorities assigned to the user. You can only view the authorized NEs
and perform the corresponding operations on these NEs. The unauthorized NEs are not
visible.
6.7.1 Creating a User
When setting user name and password for a new user, the system administrator can also
set the validity period (days) of the account and password, the roles or role sets assigned
to the user, the department that the user belongs to and the maximum login number of a
same user account.

The restoration of the whole database structure and files needs the help of the offline tool.
The U31 EMS supports the following two backup modes:
l
Automatic backup
The EMS system performs the automatic backup every day by default and manages
the backup files in accordance with the directory monitoring conditions set by the
directory monitoring.
During the automatic backup, the backup files are saved to the EMS server by default
or the FTP server that is manually specified.
l
Manual backup
The backup can be executed at any time. Generally, the backup is executed before
or after the operations such as software upgrade, system patch loading, and system
parameter modification, and user network data modification.
During the manual backup, the backup files are saved to the NMS server by default
or downloaded to the client computer.
dbtool Tool Mode
For the backup and restoration items supported by the dbtool tool, refer to Table 9-3.

12.3 Common Troubleshooting Methods
A number of methods can be used to troubleshoot failures in the U31 R22 system. In actual
situation, the flexible combination of different methods is recommended when it is hard to
determine whether a failure is a software failure or a hardware failure. Being familiar with
all the troubleshooting methods is helpful for you to troubleshoot failures in the system
quickly.
12-3
SJ-20141211100735-007|2014-12-30 (R5.0)
ZTE Proprietary and Confidential
NetNumen™ U31 R22 Operation Guide (Common Operations)
The following introduces four common troubleshooting methods for your reference.
l
Comparison Method
The comparison method is a simple method that you can use to find the difference
between the faulty configuration data (or faulty device) and the correct configuration
data (or normal device) by comparing them and then locate the failure by analyzing
the difference.
l
Replacement Method
The replacement method is a simple and practical troubleshooting method that you
can use to determine whether a hardware is faulty. For example, use a board of the
same type to replace the possible faulty board. If the failure disappears after the
replacement, it can be concluded that the replaced board is faulty.
l
System Simplification Method
The system simplification method is a troubleshooting method that you can use to
locate a failure by observing the simplest system after removing all the other irrelevant
hardware. If the failure still exists in the simplest system, it can be concluded that the
failure locates in a hardware in the simplest system. If the failure does not exist in
the simplest system, add the previously-removed hardware to the system one by one.
Once the failure appears after a hardware is added, it can be concluded that the added
hardware is faulty. Then you can replace the faulty hardware to restore the system.
l
Failure Code Analysis Method
The failure code analysis method is a troubleshooting method that you can use to
diagnose software and service failures. The system provides failure codes and causes
for all operation failures. You can conveniently determine the cause of an operation
failure by checking corresponding failure code.
The following gives two examples of how to combine different methods for troubleshooting
failures.
l
l
Example 1: To troubleshoot a hardware failure, you need to observe the indicator
lights of the hardware, and then use the replacement method and comparison method
to judge whether the hardware is working properly.
Example 2: To troubleshoot a software or service failure, you need to use the
maintenance functions of the system to find possible causes by checking and
analyzing the failure code, related logs and data in the system.
12.4 Common Troubleshooting Tools
Some tools can be used to facilitate the troubleshooting of the U31 R22 system, including
log viewer, packet catcher, and Management Information Base (MIB) browser. The
following gives a brief introduction to these common tools.
l
Log Viewer
By using the log viewer, you can view the log of operations and the log of operation
errors that are automatically recorded by the operating system. In this way, you can .
12-4
SJ-20141211100735-007|2014-12-30 (R5.0)
ZTE Proprietary and Confidential
Chapter 12 Troubleshooting
When a failure occurs, you can view the operation log to find the operation when the
failure occurs and judge whether the failure is caused by this operation, and locate
the failure cause by analyzing the operation error log.
l
Packet Catcher
The packet catcher can be used to catch needed data from network ports, and
translate the data into a format that can be easily understood and analyzed by end
users.
l
MIB Browser
The MIB browser is used to obtain the attributes of Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP). It can extract data from an NE agent and compare the data with
that in corresponding NE and U31 R22.
12.5 Troubleshooting Precautions and Requirements
Be familiar with the following precautions and requirements before you begin a
troubleshooting procedure.
l
l
Prepare common tools that may be used during the troubleshooting, for example, flat
screwdriver, cross screwdriver, test pencil, and network cable crimper pliers.
Follow the safety regulations and precautions specified by the operator in the
equipment room during troubleshooting.
Note:
The operator is recommended to establish rules and regulations to control and
direct the troubleshooting operations in equipment rooms, and authorize qualified
maintenance personnel to perform troubleshooting operations, to prevent new
failures caused by improper operations during troubleshooting.
l
l
l
l
Before troubleshooting, back up service data and operation parameters.
During troubleshooting, collect all failure-related data for analyzing and finding the
failure cause, and record useful information in detail, for example, failure symptoms,
version information, and data changes.
After troubleshooting, fill in the troubleshooting log to record all details of the
troubleshooting procedure. Add shift records to the log for the troubleshooting
that cannot be completed in a day. Such troubleshooting may involve different
maintenance personnel.
Begin a troubleshooting procedure immediately when a failure occurs. If you fail to
remove a failure, contact your local ZTE office for support. Frequently update the
contact information of your local ZTE office and paste the latest contact information of
your local ZTE office on an eye-catching place so that you can contact the local office
