 Basic 5G Sector/Cell check on gNodeB
Description Command Notes
Check Sector and Cells st cell|sector Cells depend on SectorCarrier, which
are enabled depends on SectorEquipmentFunction (SEF),
which depends on AAS
All of the dependencies must be unlocked for
Cell to enable

Example of dependencies
Locking AAS will disable everything
Locking SEF will disable its dependencies
