TABLE 5-19 POTS24 Card Details - General Tab
Field/Button Description
Device The device name and the slot number for the card.
Admin. State If UP, the POTS24 is capable of providing service. If DOWN, can Run Diags.
Oper. State The POTS24 is providing service. This state is not controllable but depends on the
Admin. State.
Status The current state of the card. States can be static or dynamic (transition of state such as
Initializing or Running Tests).
Profile The template for provisioning data.
Note: The profile is Manually Provisioned. Refer to the above Note.
POTS Protocol Whether the card is using MGCP or SIP.
Note: If the card is enabled, this pull-down is not available.
Preferred Load This is the software that will load when the card restarts. In normal operation this should
be the same as the running load, and includes the software that will download to the
POTS24 card. This load will be different during software upgrades.
Note: Loads that support SIP have the label POTS24S (versus POTS24).
Temporary Load This is software that will load the next time the card restarts, and is part of the software
upgrade process, so this is usually empty.
Running Load An alternate load file.
Modify Activated when the Profile is changed.
Disable Disables the card. Active only when the Admin State is UP.
Enable Enables the card. Active only when the Admin State is DOWN.
Restart Reboots the card. If there is a Temporary Load, this will be loaded onto the card.
Run Diags Runs diagnostics. Active only when the Admin state is DOWN, so must Disable first.
Download Brings up the Download Software window. Refer to 5.5.22.
