show data cellular

This command displays Internet connections via a cellular 3G/4G modem connected to the USB port, the integrated LTE/4G cellular modem (QMI), or when the device is connected to the Mediant 5G-EA cellular module.

Syntax

show data cellular {config|network-scan|status}

Command

Description

config

Displays the running configuration.

network-scan {3g-4g|4g}

Scans for cellular networks (3G and 4G, or only 4G) in the surrounding area. This feature is useful, for example, for searching the best provider (i.e., strongest signal) to connect the device's SIM to.

Note:

■

Before running this command, make sure the device is installed with a SIM card.

■

In the command's output, ignore the "QCOPS" lines; this is raw data from the LTE module for display purposes only.

status

Displays the current status of the cellular interface (e.g., signal strength per antenna, International Mobile Equipment Identity / IMEI, and firmware version compatible with Mediant 5G-EA).

status history [1-60]

Displays a history (in intervals by minutes) of the cellular status. This includes interface technology (e.g., LTE), signal strength (RSRP - Reference Signal Received Power), and IP address assigned by cellular provider to the interface.

status servingcell

Displays the cellular network provider (and status) to which the device (SIM) is currently connected. The status can be one of the following:

■

"Registration status code: Searching "
"Registration description: UE is searching but could not yet find a suitable 2G/3G/4G cell."

■

"Registration status code: Limited service"
"Registration description: UE is camping on a cell but has not registered to the network."

■

"Registration status code: Data mode connected"
"Registration description: UE is camping on a cell and has registered to the network in data mode."

■

"Registration status code: Data mode connected while call in progress"
"Registration description: UE is camping on a cell and has registered to the network with a call in progress."

Note:

■

It's recommended to run the no shutdown command for the cellular interface (i.e., make sure cellular interface is up).

■

In the command's output, ignore the "QENG" lines; this is raw data for display purposes only.
