Cellular Pluggable Interface Module Configuration Guide

Cellular Pluggable Interface Module Configuration Guide

The Cisco 4G LTE-Advanced Configuration chapter has been replaced by a new standalone guide called Cellular Pluggable Interface Module Configuration Guide. This guide contains updated information on all aspects of using the Cisco Cellular PIM.


Important


The Pluggable Module is not hot swappable. The router must be reloaded after a new module is installed.

Galileo Support on the LTE Pluggable Modules

With Cisco IOS XE 17.11.1a and earlier, the only GNSS constellation supported was GPS. This release introduces support for Galileo.


Note


Only ONE constellation can be enabled at a time.

There are new CLI options available to support the new constellation:

Configuration Commands

config# controller cellular <slot/port>
(config-controller)# <no> lte gps constellation <gps | galileo | gnss >

Example:

(config-controller)#lte gps constellation ?
  galileo  select Galileo as active constellation
  gps      select GPS as active constellation
  gnss      select multiple GNSS as active constellation

Note


The default setting is gps mode.

The new galileo and gnss options in the above CLI are used to configure Galileo and Multiple/Simultaneous GNSS (GPS + Galileo etc) respectively.

If you disable the GPS configuration, ensure there is no constellation configured, consistent with GPS mode configuration. For example:

config# controller Cellular 0/1/0
(config-controller)# no lte gps constellation gps

Show Commands

The following example shows the current GNSS constellation as Galileo:

#show cellular 0/1/0 gps detail
GPS Feature =  enabled
GPS Mode Configured =  standalone
Current Constellation Configured =  galileo | gps | gnss
GPS Port Selected =  Dedicated GPS port
GPS Status =  GPS acquiring

Any changes made to the configuration will require the router to be rebooted.

More information is available in the Cellular Pluggable Interface Module Configuration Guide.
