After installation of the microBTS is complete, it must be initialized with an IP Address to
allow it to communicate with the BSC over the OML/ Abis link.
Initializing the microBTS with an IP address is accomplished by performing the following
basic tasks:
1 Assemble all the tools, equipment and administrative information needed (request IP
addresses for the microBTS, and Abis link from the system administrator).
2 Connect the equipment.
3 Configure your PC to communicate with the microBTS.
4 Turn-up the equipment and assign a DHCP generated address to the microBTS.
5 Use the DHCP generated IP address to enable the microBTS web browser and set static IP
addresses for the microBTS and each of the TRX units.
6 Request the system administrator to provision the site using the BSC Configuration
Manager utility.
7 The system administrator will verify the microBTS is communicating with the BSC.
8 Verify that the microBTS is functioning correctly by making a phone call.
The following procedures will guide you through this process.

Note: Further information regarding set up of the TRX’s contained within the microBTS can be found
in the nanoBTS Installer User Guide (ADCP-75-310). Further information regarding setup and config-
uration of the BSC can be found in the BSC Configuration Manager User Guide (ADCP-75-317).
Note: Verify the BTS Installer utility and the BSC Configuration Manager utility is the latest version
or the version appropriate to your system.
