• If BTS Installer is being used to connect to this nanoBTS in a temporary
network configuration in order to perform some configuration of the nanoBTS
before it is deployed to its final location then a finite lease is acceptable, as the
nanoBTS does not need to continue to operate once BTS Installer has stopped
running.
• If some other DHCP server is available on the network that will take over the
job of BTS Installer’s built-in DHCP server once BTS Installer has stopped
running.
When the intention is to use BTS Installer’s built-in DHCP server to give a nanoBTS a
permanent IP address and IP configuration that it will remember across restarts, so
that the nanoBTS will continue to operate correctly in the absence of any DHCP server
on its network, it is necessary to:
• Set the lease time to infinite, by specifying a time of –1 seconds.
• Set flags F1, F2 and F3 to ON to ensure that the nanoBTS does not make
more DHCP requests if and when it is restarted; see section 6.7.9 for details of
these flags.
Note that if you want to change the nanoBTS’ IP configuration you can not do this
simply by changing the attributes on this tab. If you enter changed attributes here they
will be used to reconfigure the nanoBTS’ IP configuration but only if and when the
nanoBTS tries to renew its IP address lease with BTS Installer’s DHCP server. In most
circumstances the Change IP Configuration command (see section 6.5.5.9) is a
more appropriate way to try to change a nanoBTS’ IP confi
guration – this will also
change the attributes displayed in the BTS tab and the DHCP tab.
