Section 6

Creating a BSS Configuration

NORTEL NETWORKS CONFIDENTIAL

Objectives

Upon completion of this section, you will be able to configure a

BSS and to define the main parameters of the objects.

You will be able to describe:

The object hierarchy for creation (deletion) and initialization
process
Inter-object relationship and the consequences on the
creation (deletion) or initialization process
Objects dictionary describing all the BSS equipment
The Managed Logical Objects
