********** TERMINOLOGY **********
INTERNAL FAULT MAP CLASS 1A: Affect MO functionality.
Faulty HW is part of the signaling MO.
INTERNAL FAULT MAP CLASS 1B: Affect MO functionality.
Origin of the fault is external to the signaling MO.
INTERNAL FAULT MAP CLASS 2A: Not affect MO functionality.
Faulty HW is part of the signaling MO.
EXTERNAL CONDITION MAP CLASS 1: Affect MO functionality.
The conditions are TG external.
EXTERNAL CONDITION MAP CLASS 2: Not affect MO functionality.
The conditions are TG external.
REPLACEMENT UNIT MAP (RU MAP): Suspected HW causing the faults
in internal fault maps.
MO: Mangaged Object, the class of all object in the BTS O&M
model which BSC can communicate with.
SO: Service Object, an abstract subclass of MO which handles
HW. A SO manages one or more RUs.
AO: Application Object, an abstract subclass of MO which only
handles functionality.
RU: Replaceable Unit, Smallest unit in a RBS2000 cabinet
which can be replaced.
LOGICAL RU: A unit which can be refered to but is not a single
pysical unit. There are tree different kinds of logical RUs:
