A computer implemented method for controlling a communications network. The method includes obtaining, from the network, cell identifiers, remote electrical tilt, RET, equipment identifiers, link data comprising information about links between cells and RET equipment, and network configuration data, and, from a data storage, network planning data; finding a first cell, if any, missing a link to a RET equipment; searching based on comparing the network configuration data and the network planning data to which RET equipment, if any, the first cell should be linked, and responsive to detecting that the first cell and a first RET equipment should be linked, forming a link between the first cell and the first RET equipment; updating the link data with information comprising the formed link, if any; and using the updated link data in network control operations.
