Is Attached

Function: IS_ATTACHED

The IS_ATTACHED function is used to check if the test device is attached to the specified Radio Access Network (RAN). This function is essential for verifying network attachment and connectivity.

IS_ATTACHED reads the current state once and does not wait. If the network needs time to settle, put a WAIT step before it. It only reads the state and never changes the radio. SET_RAN already checks attachment itself, so use IS_ATTACHED for later re-checks.

Supported on: Android, iOS and MCM.

Parameters

Parameter Name Description Example Values Required Default Value
RAN_TYPE The Radio Access Network type to verify. The step editor shows the labels in brackets; the API uses the values. _2G (2G only), _3G (3G only), _3G_2G_AUTO (3G/2G Auto), _LTE (LTE only), _LTE_3G_2G_AUTO (LTE Auto), _5G (5G), VOLTE (VoLTE), VOWIFI (VOWIFI) Yes _2G (2G only)
EXPECT Expected result of the attachment check. SUCCESS, FAIL Yes SUCCESS

The step editor pre-selects "2G only". In an API payload RAN_TYPE must be present: a step without it is rejected with 400 ("Missing required parameters"). The _LTE_3G_2G_AUTO (LTE Auto) that GET /api/v2/functionparams lists as its default is not filled in for you.
