Performing system administration operations
This section describes the following system administration operations:
• Using DO commands to manually place and clear calls
• Restoring and saving a configuration
• Resetting the Pipeline
• Invoking the terminal server interface
Using DO commands
The DO menu is a context-sensitive list of commands that appears when you
press Ctrl-D from the VT100 interface. The commands in the DO menu vary
depending on the context in which you invoke it.
To initiate a DO command from the DO menu, press the number of the
command. For example, press 1 to invoke the Dial command.
This is a complete list of DO commands:
• 0=ESC — Abort and exit the DO menu.
• 1=Dial — Dial the selected or current profile.
• 2=Hang Up— Hang up from a call in progress.
• 3=Answer — Answer an incoming call.
• C=Close Telnet — Close the current Telnet session.
• D=Diagostics window
• E=Terminal Server
• P=Password — Log into or out of a Pipeline Security profile.
• S=Save — Save parameter values into the specified profile.
For details on each of these commands, see the Reference Guide.
To manually place a call, the Connection profile for that call must be open or
selected in the list of Profiles. To clear a call, you can either open the Connection
profile for the active connection, or tab over to the status window in which that
connection is listed (see “Using the Pipeline status windows” on page 8-9).
