Missmatch between SCTP Port Settings in RNC

and BTS

As Minimum SCTP port in BTS configuration

(51000) does not fit the setting in IPNB object
(50000) the BTS is in “BTS configured” state and
not in “BTS integrated to RAN” or “On Air”.
It is possible to modify this value in IPNB object
without reset of the BTS.
If the change should be done on BTS side the re-
commissioning is needed!
