Telnet to Open a TL1 Session
To communicate with the ONS NE using TL1 commands using a telnet session over a craft interface
or a LAN connection, you can choose from several ports.
• Port number 3083 is a telnet port that uses the telnet protocol and associated telnet escape
sequences.
• Port number 2361 is an alternative telnet port.
• Port number 3082 is a raw TCP/IP port; it will not echo and it will not prompt the user.
Step 1 At the DOS prompt, type cmd and press Enter. (The same steps can also be done from a Unix
prompt).
Step 2 At the DOS command prompt type:
TELNET <NODE IP ADDRESS OR NODE NAME> <PORT NUMBER> and press Enter.
The Node IP address or Node Name refers to the IP address or Node Name of the node you
want to communicate with. Port number is the port (2361, 3082, or 3083) where TL1
commands are understood. If the connection is successful, a screen opens with a prompt.
Step 3 You are ready to log into TL1. Follow the steps in the “Log Into TL1” section on page 8.
Use a Craft Interface to Open a TL1 Session
ONS 15454, ONS 15327, ONS 15310-CL, and ONS 15310-MA
The TCC2/TCC2P, XTC, 15310-CL-CTX, and CTX2500 cards have two built-in interface ports for
accessing the ONS 15454, ONS 15327, ONS 15310-CL, and ONS 15310-MA respectively. With one
RJ-45 LAN connection you can access the system using a standard browser interface. In the browser
interface, you can perform local and remote Operations, Administration, Maintenance, and
Provisioning (OAM&P) functions and open a VT100 emulation window to enter TL1 commands. If
a browser is not available, you can access the system using a nine-pin RS-232 port. The RS-232 port
supports VT100 emulation such that TL1 commands may be entered directly without a browser.
The
ONS 15310-MA has two EIA/TIA-232 ports.
Step 1 Connectthe serial cable to the RS-232 port on theactive TCC2/TCC2P, XTC, 15310-CL-CTX,
or CTX2500 card.
