Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for first-level debugging for a radio equipment of a base station using a local wireless hotspot created by another radio equipment of the base station in local wireless proximity to the radio equipment. In one embodiment, a network management system is remotely connected to a Radio Equipment Controller (REC) of a base station in a cellular communications network. The network management system determines that there is a loss of communication between the REC and a first Remote Radio Equipment (RRE) of the base station. The network management system causes a second RRE of the base station to create a local wireless hotspot and then obtains debug information for the first RRE that is obtained by the second RRE via the local wireless hotspot. The network management system then utilizes the debug information for the first RRE.
