💖 IPACCESS-CONFIG(1) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to ipaccess-config — the manual page, the moment, the whole vibe. this is the page for the ipaccess-config tool itself (yes, that's the manual name, we're being official about it ✨), so grab a snack 🍓 and let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

ipaccess-config — a tool to configure an ip.access nanoBTS. that's the whole job. that's the assignment. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

ipaccess-config [options] <IP_OF_BTS>

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so, ipaccess-config is a lil command line tool whose one (1) purpose in life is configuring an ip.access nanoBTS. lowkey iconic of it. 💅

what you can do with it: basic operations — think setting NVRAM parameters, or running tests. no cap, that's the whole menu.

and where does it live? it's part of the OpenBSC base station controller from Osmocom. so it's got family. 🫶

✨ OPTIONS ✨

🛠️ Commands for writing to the BTS

these ones actually change stuff on the BTS, so pay attention bestie 👑

  • -u, --unit-id UNIT_ID — sets the Unit ID of the BTS
  • -o, --oml-ip IP — sets the primary OML IP, which is the IP of your BSC
  • -i, --ip-address IP/MASK — sets the static IP address plus the netmask of the BTS (both, together, as one arg, slay)
  • -g, --ip-gateway IP — sets the static IP gateway of the BTS
  • -r, --restart — restarts the BTS, and it does this after the other operations you asked for
  • -n, --nvram-flags FLAGS/MASK — sets NVRAM attributes
  • -S, --nvattr-set FLAG — sets one additional NVRAM attribute
  • -U, --nvattr-unset FLAG — sets one additional NVRAM attribute (yes, same wording as the one above — the flag name is doing the heavy lifting here 🫠)
  • -l, --listen TESTNR — performs the specified test number
  • -L, --Listen TEST_NAME — performs the specified test, but by name. note the capital L, it's not a typo, it's a whole different option 💀
  • -s, --stream-id ID — sets the IPA Stream Identifier for OML
  • -d, --software FIRMWARE — downloads firmware into the BTS

🎀 Miscellaneous commands

the extras, the side quests, the little guys 🧚

  • -h, --help — this text. hi, you found it 🌸
  • -H, --HELP — prints parameter details. capital edition, more detail, more drama
  • -f, --firmware FIRMWARE — provides firmware information
  • -w, --write-firmware — dumps the firmware parts to the filesystem. use it with -f. 👀
  • -p, --loop — loops the tests that you ran with the --listen command. again. and again. forever, bestie 🔁
