1 Load Tester v11.2 Release Notes - Page 1 of 16 - Version Release Date: August 18, Dependent Tcl library version changed from 8.6 to 8.5 Resolved Issues Issue # Summary Load Tester should retry attach procedure if attach reject with certain causes received from MME IP Traffic Emulator does not allow to create more than 10 traffic sources Load Tester Console crashes after 152 hours TCP traffic generation does not work if NAT (Network Address Translation) is enabled between TCP server and client If UEs in one UE Group are served by multiple SGWs, uplink user plane traffic from all UEs always goes to a single SGW IP Traffic Emulator crashes if a test with multiple signaling procedures and user plane traffic executes several times Newly added Testbed Configuration and Test Scenario properties should be added automatically to the old test cases Tcl version to be downgraded from 8.6 to Packet Delay metric is not correct Load Tester enodeb sends ARP request with source IP address of primary interface to SGW, instead of actual (alias) enodeb IP address Service Request fails if sequence of Attach->UEContextRelease- >ServiceRequest->Detach procedures is repeated Linux system, where IP Traffic Emulator is installed, sometimes gets kernel panic in time of shutdown or reboot Attach fails if it is executed repeatedly in a loop without detach Diameter Load Tester should support more than one Event reporting over Rx interface for an UE. - Page 1 of 16 -

2 Load Tester v11.2 Release Notes - Page 2 of 16 - Issue # Summary Traffic generation does not start even a single UE in an UE Group fails to attach. Known Issues Issue # Summary FTP traffic generation is not supported. - Page 2 of 16 -

3 Load Tester v11.2 Release Notes - Page 3 of 16 - Version Release Date: June 21, IP Traffic Emulator: Support of fragmented IPv6 packet generation. Resolved Issues Issue # Summary IP Traffic Emulator limits maximum number of allowed traffic sources to ENodeB Emulator crashes if SCTP connection between MME and enodeb goes down IPTE generates traffic at higher than configured rate if packet size is more than MSS. Fragmentation of big packet happens in this case IPTE sometimes fails to start all Traffic Generators (TGs) if number of TGs is more than IPTE becomes unresponsive after 8 hours of regression test run Tracking Area Update (TAU) procedures fail in long duration test run HiPPE process crashes in time of Uplink (UL) IPv4 TCP traffic generation over IPv6 GTPu tunnel ENodeB Emulator sometimes sends malformed S1AP packet to MME. It leads to signaling procedure failures HiPPE process crashes in time of Uplink (UL) IPv6 TCP traffic generation over IPv6 GTPu tunnel ENodeB Emulator incorrectly sends CSG-ID for macro type enodeb in Service Request message Normal user (non-super user) can not install Load Tester Console/Emulators in CentOS bit (GNOME/KDE desktop environment) - Page 3 of 16 -

Resolved Issues Issue # Summary "Hipped Process" Memory utilization increases gradually during regression testing FeNB emulator crashes when UE group does an X2 HO from cell A to cell B followed by an S1-HO from cell B to cell A After S1-HO from enb1 to enb3; then X2-HO from enb3 to enb1, 'Pathswitch Request' is wrongly initiated by enb1, instead of enb Hipped Process crashed during execution of IPv4 test scenario having Signalling & User plane mix with Fragmented packets Hipped Process crashed when loop iterates more than once with Fragmented packets FastENB fails to respond to paging, if DL data is send over dedicated bearer to an idle UE after cellchange with relocation LoadTester Console crashed during execution of IPv6 test scenario having Signalling & User plane mix. Known Issues Issue # Summary FTP traffic generation is not supported Load Tester Console does not get installed on Linux KDE Desktop environment IP Traffic Emulator limits maximum number of allowed traffic sources to 10. UDP Traffic Generator is considered as 1 traffic source. TCP Server or TCP Client is considered as 2 traffic sources. - Page 5 of 16 -
