The next item that appears notifies the user of the location where the BTS is retrieving its
Management Information Base (MIB). After initial installation and provisioning through the boot
line, “EMS” is selected as the Config Data Source. In this case, all remaining parameters are
downloaded from the EMS.
Once the BTS and EMS have synchronized and ownership of individual elements in the MIB
negotiated, subsequent reboots of the BTS will indicate the local “BTS” copy of the MIB is
being used. This reduces the burden and start-up time of a system-wide restart:
Selecting Config Data Source as BTS ......Done
Once the MIB information is identified, the SNMP agent is initialized. At this point, the EMS
can begin communicating with the BTS via this agent:
Initializing SNMP Agent ..................Done
The BTS tests that a path through the WAN exists to its EMS Server. That test is identified next
in the sequence. If the EMS is selected as the Config Data Source, the initialization cannot
continue. If the “BTS” is selected as the data source, the BTS can continue to initialize.
However, it will be unmanaged, as the EMS cannot communicate with the BTS.
Pinging EMS (172.16.0.10).................Done
A status message appears indicating that all DSP’s have been downloaded and are now
beginning the initialization process:
Bootload is a success.....................Done
Initialization can take a significant period of time, with progress through the DSP initialization
shown by a growing string of “.” on this line. Initialization is complete with “Done” on this line,
and the configuration data is passed to the application entities on each device:
Initializing DSP(s).......................Done
Configuring LLC Bandwidth Management......Done
Configuring MAC Carrier Data..............Done
Configuring MAC Bandwidth Management......Done
Configuring Layer 1.......................Done
Configuring CPE Descriptor Table .........Done
The final step in the BTS initialization is to start up the GPS subsystem. With the GPS, the BTS
will remain time synchronized with the other BTS’s in the network:
Configuring GPS...........................Done
