+
+  After uploading the license,
+  - Create a discovery task: Server -> Discovery parameters -> Add
+(the form fields should match the BS configuration)
+  - Wait for the discovery to take place
+  - After a while, the BS should be visible under Configuration
+management -> Node -> Node
+  - Select it and click on Edit
+  - Configure everything according to the "golden config" (basically
+the default settings), except for the IP address and RF profile which
+are site-specific
+  - Make sure that the form field "Ready for service" says "Ready for service"
+  - Click OK
+  - Wait for the provisioning to complete (it takes a couple of minutes)
+  - If the provisioning fails, the BS is probably in "maintenance"
+mode (ours was) and must be switched to "out of service" with the
+following steps:
+      -- Select the BS and click on Manage
+      -- Go to the "State and control" page
+      -- Under "16e BS service state" select "Set out of service"
+      -- Click OK and wait, now the provisioning should take place
+  - Switch the "16e BS service state" to "in service", following the
+above procedure
+  - Now netspan should report all green and the BS should be fully up
+and running
+
+''' Note ''' that the BS cannot be moved from "maintenance" to "in service"
+directly (at least it didn't work when I tried yesterday), so it must
+be put first into "out of service" state, and then finally "in
+service".
