ME after performing the action. This changes the

operational state of the ME to enable.

• Unlock: In this state, you cannot perform any action on

the ME. However, there is an exception with the cell

table. You can modify the handover and power control

parameters in unlocked state.

2.2.2 Operational States

Operational state of a ME tells you the functional state of

that ME. The change in the operational state of a ME

depends on the internal working of BSC. In addition, the

operational state of ME changes only when you change its

administrative state. You can only view the operational state

of a ME in OMC. The states are as follows:

• Enabled: The ME is operable. Enabled state of a ME

refers that it is working and communicating with the BSC.

• Disabled: The ME is inoperable because it is not

installed, defective, or because of some other resource

upon which it depends is not available (locked by

operator or operational state is disabled due to internal

failure). In addition, connectivity failure between the ME

and BSS makes the ME disabled.

2.2.2.1 Administrative Operations

In addition to the administrative states, you can perform the

given below operations on a ME:

• Reset Active: Used to restart the selected ME.

• Reset Stand by: Used to restart the ME, which is in

standby mode.

• Connect: Used to connect a ME to a network.
