Claim 8:
9. A network management system that manages a Radio Access Network (RAN) including a radio unit device, a first computing device, and a second computing device different from the first computing device, the network management system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more storage devices storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the network management system to:
configure the first computing device using first Distributed Unit (DU) configuration information;
detect an outage of the first computing device;
configure the second computing device using the first DU configuration information in response to the detecting the outage of the first computing device;
cause the second computing device to update a configuration parameter stored by the radio unit device using an address of the radio unit device included in the first DU configuration information;
configure the second computing device using second DU configuration information different from the first DU configuration information before the second computing device is configured using the first DU configuration information;
cause the second computing device to enter a power saving mode after the second computing device is configured using the second DU configuration information; and
cause the second computing device to exit the power saving mode before the second computing device is configured using the first DU configuration information.
