1 Introduction

LTEMME is a LTE EPC (Evolved Packet Core) implementation. It has a built-in MME (Mobility Management Entity), SGW (Serving Gateway), PGW (Packet Data Network Gateway), PCRF (Policy and Charging Rule Function), HSS (Home Subscriber Server), EIR (Equipment Identity Register) and ePDG (evolved Packet Data Gateway). It can easily be used with the Amarisoft LTE eNodeB to build a highly configurable LTE test network.
Depending on your software license, it also includes a NR 5GC (5G Core Network). It has build-in AMF (Access and Mobility Management Function), AUSF (Authentication Server Function), SMF (Session Management Function), UPF (User Plane Function), UDM (Unified Data Management) and 5G-EIR (5G Equipment Identity Register).

3 Requirements

3.1 Hardware requirements

3.2 Software requirements

4 Installation

[Quick installation instructions are also given in the Amarisoft eNodeB/gNodeB documentation in case LTEMME is installed on the same PC as the eNodeB/gNodeB].

The network access thru the Gigabit Ethernet port must be correctly configured.

LTEMME can be run directly from the directory when it was unpacked. No need for explicit installation.

4.1 Local network configuration

LTEMME will set up a new virtual network interface tun0 where each UE has a specific IP address. If you want them to connect to your local network (and Internet), you need to set up IP forwarding and masquerading.

An example is found in the lte_init.sh:
Syntax: 

sudo ./lte_init.sh [-6] <ifname>

sudo ./lte_init.sh default
sudo ./lte_init.sh -6 eth1

4.2 Linux setup

4.2.1 Packages

LTEMME uses the SCTP protocol for which the necessary packages are not usually installed. In order to install them, do as root user:

To verify that SCTP kernel module is running, do as root user: 

checksctp

If it reports that the protocol is not supported,

Then reboot the PC in case the Linux kernel was upgraded too.

4.2.2 OpenSSL

LTEMME has been compiled against openssl version 1.1.1w.
If your system does not have compatible version installed you may have this error message at startup: 

error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

To overcome this problem, you may:

In case of persisting issue, raise a ticket from our support site at https://support.amarisoft.com/ with the information provided by below commands executed in LTEMME directory: 

uname -a
ls -l

4.2.3 NGHTTP2

LTEMME has been compiled against nghttp2 version 1.41.0.
If your system does not have compatible version installed you may have this error message at startup: 

error while loading shared libraries: libnghttp2.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

To overcome this problem, you may:

In case of persisting issue, raise a ticket from our support site at https://support.amarisoft.com/ with the information provided by below commands executed in LTEMME directory: 

uname -a
ls -l
ldd ./ltemme

4.3 License key installation

LTEMME needs a license key file to run. It is associated to your PC, so if you replace it or change its hardware configuration you must contact Amarisoft to get a new license key.

The following steps are needed to get this license file:

Once the license key is installed, ltemme should start normally.

4.4 Initial testing

5 Configuration reference

5.1 Configuration file syntax

The main configuration file uses a syntax very similar to the Javascript Object Notation (JSON) with few extensions.

  1. Supported types:
    • - Numbers (64 bit floating point). Notation: 13.4
    • - Complex numbers. Notation: 1.2+3*I
    • - Strings. Notation: "string"
    • - Booleans. Notation: true or false.
    • - Objects. Notation: { field1: value1, field2: value2, .... }
    • - Arrays. Notation: [ value1, value2, .... ]
  2. The basic operations +, -, * and / are supported with numbers and complex numbers. + also concatenates strings. The operators !, ||, &&, ==, !=, <, <=, >=, > are supported too.
  3. The numbers 0 and 1 are accepted as synonyms for the boolean values false and true.
  4. {} at top level are optional.
  5. " for property names are optional, unless the name starts with a number.
  6. Properties can be duplicated.
    Merge will be done by recursively overriding values considering reading direction. 
    {
    value: "foo",
    value: "bar",
    sub: {
        value: "foo"
    },
    sub: {
        value: "bar"
    }
}

    Will be equivalent to: 

    {
    value: "bar",
    sub: {
        value: "bar"
    }
}
  7. Files can be included using include keyword (must not be quoted) followed by a string (without :) representing the file to include (path is relative to current file) and terminating by a comma.
    Arrays can’t be included.
    Merge will be done as for duplicate properties.
    If file1.cfg is: 
        value: "foo",
    include "file2.cfg",
    foo: "foo"

    And file2.cfg is: 

        value: "bar",
    foo: "bar"

    Final config will be: 

    {
    value: "bar",
    foo: "foo"
}
  8. A C like preprocessor is supported. The following preprocessor commands are available:
    #define var expr

    Define a new variable with value expr. expr must be a valid JSON expression. Note that unlike the standard C preprocessor, expr is evaluated by the preprocessor.

    #undef var

    Undefine the variable var.

    #include expr

    Include the file whose filename is the evaluation of the string expression expr.

    #if expr

    Consider the following text if expr is true.

    #else

    Alternative of #if block.

    #elif

    Composition of #else and #if.

    #endif

    End of #if block.

    #ifdef var

    Shortcut for #if defined(var)

    #ifndef var

    Shortcut for #if !defined(var)

    In the JSON source, every occurrence of a defined preprocessor variable is replaced by its value.

  9. Backquote strings: JSON expression can be inserted in backquote delimited strings with the ${expr} syntax. Example: `abc${1+2}d` is evaluated as the string "abc3d". Preprocessor variables can be used inside the expression. Backquote strings may span several lines.

6 Remote API

You can access LTEMME via a remote API.
Protocol used is WebSocket as defined in RFC 6455 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6455).

Note that Origin header is mandatory for the server to accept connections.
This behavior is determined by the use of nopoll library.
Any value will be accepted.

6.1 Messages

Messages exchanged between client and LTEMME server are in strict JSON format.

Each message is represented by an object. Multiple message can be sent to server using an array of message objects.

Time and delay values are floating number in seconds.

There are 3 types of messages:

6.2 Startup

When WebSocket connections is setup, LTEMME will send a first message with name set to com_name and type set to MME.

If authentication is not set, message will be ready: 

{
    "message": "ready",
    "type": "MME",
    "name": <com_name>
}

If authentication is set, message will be authenticate : 

{
    "message": "authenticate",
    "type": "MME",
    "name": <com_name>,
    "challenge": <random challenge>
}

To authenticate, the client must answer with a authenticate message and a res parameter where: 

res = HMAC-SHA256( "<type>:<password>:<name>", "<challenge>" )

res is a string and HMAC-SHA256 refers to the standard algorithm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAC)

If the authentication succeeds, the response will have a ready field set to true. 

{
    "message": "authenticate",
    "message_id": <message id>,
    "ready": true
}

If authentication fails, the response will have an error field and will provide a new challenge. 

{
    "message": "authenticate",
    "message_id": <message id>,
    "error": <error message>,
    "type": "MME",
    "name: <name>,
    "challenge": <new random challenge>
}

If any other message is sent before authentication succeeds, the error "Authentication not done" will be sent as a response.

6.3 Errors

If a message produces an error, response will have an error string field representing the error.

6.4 Sample nodejs program

You will find in this documentation a sample program: ws.js.
It is located in doc subdirectory.
This is a nodejs program that allow to send message to LTEMME.
It requires nodejs to be installed: 

dnf install nodejs npm
npm install nodejs-websocket

Use relevant package manager instead of NPM depending on your Linux distribution.

Then simply start it with server name and message you want to send: 

./ws.js 127.0.0.1:9000 '{"message": "config_get"}'

9 FAQ

9.1 Traffic control

I want to generate errors, limit bandwidth, introduce latency...

Easiest and most powerful way is to do this at IP level using the tc Linux command.
There are various tutorials on the internet but it is not a piece of cake so here are some common commands to handle simple case.

First, tc will operate at Linux interface level, which means that for LTE we will control the tun0 interface created by MME.
Note that this configuration will be dropped each time you restart the MME so if you want to set it automatically and keep it we recommand to place the commands inside config/mme-ifup (See tun_setup_script).

tc is very powerful and you may also chain filters (qdisc), apply them on specific traffic...
