-===== Configuring Base station profile =====
-
-  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 and must be switched to "out of service" with the
-following steps, if needed:
-  - 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 , so it must be put first into "out of service" state, and then finally "in
-service".
