l This function can be used to quickly locate and resolve problems. Normally there is no way
to avoid that some user data such as International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) will
be used during the troubleshooting. However, this function provides an anonymous data
processing method.
l User messages can be traced by CRNC ID, Chain Time, IMSI ID, or CELL ID. When
user messages are traced by IMSI ID, check whether IMSI data to be entered must be
anonymous by running the LST USERIDANONSWITCH command and querying User
Identity Anonymity Switch.
If User Identity Anonymity Switch is ON, the anonymous policy is enabled, and
anonymous IMSI data must be entered in IMSI ID. The anonymous IMSI data is the
IMSI data encrypted by the HMACUtil using the cipher key.
If User Identity Anonymity Switch is OFF, the anonymous policy is disabled, and
user IMSI data is directly entered in IMSI ID.
l Change the anonymous policy and cipher key on the M2000 by choosing Monitor >
Signaling Trace > Anonymous Policy Management. For details, see M2000 Fault
Management User Guide.
l If you change the anonymous policy or cipher key of a started tracing task on the M2000,
you need to restart the tracing task. Otherwise, the tracing task becomes invalid.

boards should stay between 5% and 10%.
l When the NodeB carries services, the CPU usage of all boards increases to less than 75%.
If the CPU usage increases to more than 75%, the alarm is raised.
l It is normal for the CPU usage to stay at 100% for a few seconds.
l If 100% of CPU usage lasts longer, the CPU may be faulty. For example, the CPU is faulty
if usage lasts over one minute even though the NodeB does not carry service.
