10) Click <OK> to log into the NodeB and start the Operation & Maintenance System.

3.4 Recording IP Address of Maintenance Channel in Data Configuration File

NodeB reset after data configuration file download brings the data in the file into effect. In that case, the NodeB replaces the original IP address with the maintenance channel IP address in the file. If the new IP address is different from the original one, LMT disconnects itself from NodeB. At that time, it is necessary to log into NodeB again with the new IP address. Therefore, it is necessary to retrieve and record the maintenance channel IP address in the data configuration file in the LMT configuration management system before downloading the file.

In the near end O&M mode, follow the procedure below to retrieve the maintenance channel IP address in the LMT configuration management system:
