This is good news. Is that patch already in gerrit somewhere? > Anyway, at this point in time I don't see any particular issues that > indicates a BSC problem.

I think we never had support for this in OsmoBSC or even before in OpenBSC. In GSM/3GPP spec language, every sector is a BTS. The fact that many networks use sectorized cells is nothing that reflects anywhere in the specification or the terminology. It's an implementation detail. I think from the OsmoBSC point of view, a typical 3-sector site would still be three logical BTSs (in the data model / structures). It's "just" the respective manufacturer OML code would have to be adjusted to accomodate a situation where there are managed objects that only exist once per site, while others exist per BTS/TRX/... We have the same situation with Ericsson OM2000 support: Right now one can only have a single BTS per RBS, as our OM2000 code doesn't distinguish between MOs that exist once per site only (CF, TF, IS, ...) and MOs that exist for each BTS. -- - Harald Welte <[email protected]> https://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."
