• Optionally, Traffic Selector information (IP address and subnet mask)
A traffic selector defines a range of IP addresses that are sent through the
IPSec tunnel. This allows an extra degree of control over the traffic that is
passed down the IPSec tunnel. Normally, the IPsec Gateway controls this
range and no other configuration is needed.
• NTP server address
This is the address of an NTP server from which the LTE AP can obtain its clock
time on startup. The correct clock time is required for security certificate validation.
Hence, the LTE AP must be able to access this NTP server before establishing an
IPsec tunnel and/or connecting to its serving NOS. Although APs have an
ip.access NTP server configured by default, operators are recommended to
configure APs with the address of their own first-contact NTP server.
Note: IPsec configuration is required in all cases where an AP will traverse any public or insecure
network. This is assumed to be the case in most deployments. IPsec is not necessary only
when an LTE AP can establish an end-to-end connection to the NOS and its nanoLTE GW
and/or EPC via fully secure trusted networks.
3.1.2 Other Items for Commissioning
The items in this section can only be used if the commissioning terminal is running a web
server that provides a path to any ip.access AP software download packages. That is, the
required .sdp files must be present on the commissioning terminal.
Setting up a web server for this purpose on the commissioning terminal is outside the scope
of this manual.

If there is a requirement to update the LTE AP’s software during commissioning, the
relevant *_signed.sdp file must be present on the commissioning terminal.
In addition, the LTE AP must be able to update its clock time with NTP prior to downloading
the software. This is to ensure the LTE AP does not reject the software due to having a
clock time set that is in the past compared to the time/date stamp in the LTE AP software
load.
