Chapter 8 Provisioning with TL1
8.2 Set IP Address
An EIA/TIA-232 link to the ONS 15216 EDFA2 is established. The user can now provision the ONS
15216 EDFA2.
8.2 Set IP Address
Before connecting the ONS 15216 EDFA2 to a LAN, it is mandatory to set the ONS 15216 EDFA2 IP
address through a local serial communication interface using the RS-232 (EIA/TIA-232) port on the
front of the module.
Step 1 If you do not know the ONS 15216 EDFA2’s IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, or sid/tid name,
contact your network administrator.
Step 2 At the command prompt, enter the ED-NE-GEN command (see the “9.6.12 ED-NE-GEN” section on
page 9-21) according to the following syntax:
ED-NE-GEN:[<tid>]::<ctag>:::[NAME=<name>],[IPADDR=<ipaddr>],[IPMASK=<ipmask>],[DEFRTR=<def
rtr>];
The name is the sid/tid name in the command line prompt. See Example 8-3.
Example 8-3 Setting IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway Address, and sid/tid Name Using TL1
sidtidname :ONS15216 EDFA2> ED-NE-GEN:::101:::NAME=Amp01,IPADDR=192.167.3.4,IPMASK=255.255.
255.0,DEFRTR=192.167.3.20;
Step 3 The system must be rebooted to make the IP address active. Use the INIT-SYS command (see the
“9.6.17 INIT-SYS” section on page 9-28), as follows:
sidtidname :ONS15216 EDFA2> INIT-SYS::ALL:102::1;
8.3 Log In via LAN Port Using Telnet (Optional)
Provisioning of the ONS 15216 EDFA2 can be accomplished entirely through the RS-232
(EIA/TIA-232) port, so this step is optional. After an IP address is assigned, it may be easier to provision
the ONS 15216 EDFA2 using Telnet. A Telnet client is needed for TL1 commands over IP. After
connecting the ONS 15216 EDFA2 to the network through its RJ-45 LAN port (see the “3.4.5 LAN
Interface (Ethernet)” section on page 3-14), the user can configure the module to accept TL1 commands
via Telnet using the following procedure:
Step 1 Connect to the LAN port on the ONS 15216 EDFA2. See the “3.4.5.1 LAN Connection Procedure”
section on page 3-15.
Step 2 Click the Microsoft Windows Start menu and select Run.
Step 3 In the text field, type the following:
telnet < ONS 15216 EDFA2 IP address > 3083
Specifying port 3083 ensures login through the TL1 shell. If no port is specified, the ONS 15216 EDFA2
responds in the shell that the ONS 15216 EDFA2 is set to. (TL1 is the default shell.)
