1   Introduction

This document describes the basic information on how to configure a virtualized Ericsson Dynamic Activation (EDA) system. By using this document readers are able to get necessary information about the parameters used in the installation.

1.1   Target Groups

The target groups for this document are as follows:

Basic knowledge about Linux and general information about Dynamic Activation is needed for installation of the software.

1.2   Typographic Conventions

Typographic conventions are described in the document Library Overview, Reference [3].

For information about abbreviations used throughout this document refer to Glossary of Terms and Acronyms, Reference [1].

1.2.1   Parameters

The parameters in this document can be of the following types:

P - Predefined, not possible to change.

C - Customer configured after discussions with Ericsson.

D - Default, possible to change.

S - Site specific parameters. The site specific parameters can be identified in Customer Questionnaire for Virtual and Cloud Deployment, Reference [2].

2   Configuration

The following tables list parameters used when configuring Dynamic Activation in a virtualized deployment.

Table 1 contains cluster wide parameters, and Table 2 contains node specific parameters.

For more detailed information regarding network configuration, refer to Network Description and Configuration for Virtual and Cloud Deployment, Reference [4].

Note:  
If IPv6 is used for one of the applicable parameters in the table below, all IPv6 parameters throughout this document become mandatory.
