| This section describes how to install and configure the Sercomm eNB |
| which is the default eNB device for Aether/Pronto project. |

| |
| Preliminaries |
| ============= |
| Prepare the following devices: |
| |
| * Sercomm eNB |
| * 10GbE SFP+ to 1/10GbE copper media converter |
| * Workstation to remotely access and configure the eNB |
| |
| Collect the following information: |
| |
| * eNB IP address |
| * MME IP address (10.168.0.6 by default) |
| * TAC |
| * Cell ID |
| |
| .. warning:: |
| |
| ``Cell ID`` and ``TAC`` are critical parameters and the values must |
| be assigned the by OPs team. |
| |
| Connect the eNB |
| =============== |
| |
| Connect the eNB to the fabric switch through the media converter and power on, |
| then it will automatically get pre-configured IP address using DHCP. |
| Verify that you can access the web-based configuration(`https://<eNB IP>`) from your workstation. |
| If the eNB address is not directly reachable, use the management server as a jump host. |
| |
| The default credentials for the Sercomm eNB are: |
| |
| * Username: ``sc_femto`` |
| * Password: ``scHt3pp`` (or ``sc_femto``) |
