6.3.1 The BTS Database
BTS Installer will only operate on a nanoBTS that it knows about.
The collection of nanoBTSs that BTS Installer knows about is called the BTS
Database.
The BTS Status section at the bottom of the graphical user interface is a display of the
current status of each entry in the BTS Database – each row in this table represents
one nanoBTS that BTS Installer knows about.
There are several ways in which BTS Installer can get to know about a nanoBTS, ie
ways in which a nanoBTS can be added to the BTS Database:
• Information about the nanoBTS can be loaded from a configuration file (see
section 6.3.4).
• The Find co
mmand will create BTS Database entries for one or more
nanoBTSs that BTS Installer was able to locate on the local LAN (these
nanoBTSs must already have valid IP configurations for the Find command to
work).
• The New command will create a BTS Database entry full of default values; the
user must edit some values in this entry before it is useful, and in particular
must enter either a MAC address or an IP address or a Unit ID before BTS
Installer will be able to identify the nanoBTS to which the entry relates.
• The IP address and optionally the Unit ID of the nanoBTS can be specified on
the command line when BTS Installer is started.
BTS Database entries are deleted:
• When the Delete command is used.
• When a new configuration file is loaded.
• When BTS Installer is shut down.
A BTS Database entry can be edited:
• Using the Edit command.
• Indirectly using the Defaults command, which affects all BTS Database entries
that don’t have more specific values.
None of BTS Installer’s tools, including the DHCP server, will operate on a nanoBTS
for which there is no BTS Database entry.
