Hcu Client Lifetime Activation Guide

import paramiko import time ssh = paramiko.SSHClient() ssh.connect('192.168.1.100', username='admin', password='Huawei@123')

while True: stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command(':DSP VER:') # harmless status command time.sleep(300) # send every 5 minutes (less than default 15 min timeout) hcu client lifetime activation

:DSP USER TIMEOUT: Disabling timeout on a live network node may pose a security risk. Only do this during dedicated maintenance windows, and re-enable timeout afterward. 3.2. Use "Keep-Alive" Mechanism (Client-side) If you cannot modify HCU board settings (e.g., remote site, no permissions), simulate lifetime activation by sending periodic no-op commands from the client. import paramiko import time ssh = paramiko

This content is structured for network engineers, field technicians, and maintenance personnel who work with Huawei’s LMT (Local Maintenance Terminal). 1. What is HCU? HCU stands for Host Communication Unit (or sometimes Handling Communication Unit), but in Huawei’s BTS/NBTS (NodeB) environment, it is often part of the main control and clock processing board . What is HCU

# Log into HCU main control board (e.g., via serial) # Navigate to system settings :SET USER TIMEOUT: TIMEOUT=0 TIMEOUT=0 typically means (infinite lifetime). Otherwise, set a high value (e.g., TIMEOUT=14400 for 4 hours in minutes? Check unit – often in seconds).
