3.5.37 ENT-EQPT: Enter Equipment
This command enters the card type and attributes for a given equipment slot in the NE. It also
automatically enters all facilities supported by the card, assigning default values to all facility and path
attributes.
The command supports optional parameters: RVTM (revertive time), RVRTV (revertive behavior),
PROTID (unique protection id) and PRTYPE (protection type) for configuring the card in an equipment
protection group. PRTYPE can be 1:1 and 1:N. These parameters can only be entered for a working AID.
The protect card must already be provisioned before creating the protection group.
1:1 protection involves the odd slot protecting the even slot. The work-protect pair is as follows (2-1,
4-3, 6-5, 16-17, 14-15, 12-13). DS1, DS3, DS3XM, DS3N, DS3E, EC1 and other electrical cards support
1:1 protection. The value of PROTID is the protecting slot and is of the form “slot-x”. This command
creates a 1:1 protection group. If the command has the optional parameters for creating a protection
group and the protection group cannot be created due to an error condition, provisioning of the
equipment fails.
The PROTID slot must be provisioned first.
To create 1:1 with the ENT-EQPT command, the working card should not be provisioned first, so the
AID type field should be presented in ENT-EQPT for the AID on this <AID>.
The following is an example for a 1:1 protection group:
ENT-EQPT:[<TID>]:SLOT-1:<CTAG>::DS1;
ENT-EQPT:[<TID>]:SLOT-2:<CTAG>::DS1:PROTID=SLOT-1,PRTYPE=1-1,RVTM=5.0,
RVRTV=Y;
1:N protection is always revertive. For 1:N protection, the protect slot can only be Slot 3 or Slot 15. For
protect card in Slot 3, the working cards can be in any of the slots on Bank A. Slot 15 is for protection
in Bank B. A DSXN (DS1N or DS3N) card must be provisioned in the protect slot. A 1:1 protection
cannot be upgraded to 1:N protection. This command creates a 1:N protection group or adds a new card
to an existing 1:N protection group. Multiple working AIDs can be entered in a protection group.
The following is an example of provisioning a 1:N protection group with the ENT-EQPT command:
ENT-EQPT:[<TID>]:SLOT-3:<CTAG>::DS1N;
ENT-EQPT:[<TID>]:SLOT-2&SLOT-1:<CTAG>::DS1:PROTID=SLOT-3,PRTYPE=1-N;
The following is an example of provisioning a 1:N protection group with the ED-EQPT command:
ENT-EQPT:[<TID>]:SLOT-1&SLOT-2:<CTAG>::DS1;
ENT-EQPT:[<TID>]:SLOT-3:<CTAG>::DS1N;
ED-EQPT:[<TID>]:SLOT-2&SLOT-1:<CTAG>:::PROTID=SLOT-1,PRTYPE=1-N;
If the provisioning fails for some AIDs, PRTL responses will be provided indicating failed AIDs. If the
provisioning fails for all the AIDs, a DENY response will be provided. For both CMPLD and PRTL
responses on creating protection group query, the protection group has been created for the successful
AID(s) query.
The following is an example for 1:N protection. RVRTV parameter is not valid for 1:N protection.
ENT-EQPT:[<TID]>:SLOT-2:<CTAG>:::PROTID=SLOT-3,PRTYPE=1-N,RVTM=5.0;
Both ENT-EQPT and ED-EQPT commands can provision all working AIDs (1-5) together for 1:N by
using listed AIDs.
The ENT-EQPT command provisions a new card and adds it to the protection group. The ED-EQPT
command adds the already provisioned cards to the protection group.
