Chapter 1 Getting Started
Setting up TL1 Communication
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 Type the Activate User command to open a TL1 session:
ACT-USER:[<TID>]:<UID>:<CTAG>::<PID>;
Note When the semicolon is typed, the command is executed immediately.
Step 4 Type the Cancel User command to close a TL1 session:
CANC-USER:[<TID>]:<USERID>:<CTAG>;
Procedure: Open a TL1 Session Via Craft Interface
The TCC+/XTC has two built-in interface ports for accessing the ONS 15454. 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.
Step 1 Connect the serial cable to the RS-232 port on the active TCC+/XTC card.
Step 2 Configure the terminal emulation software (Hyperterminal):
a. Terminal emulation = vt100
b. Bits per second = 9600
c. Parity = None
d. Stop BITS = 1
e. Flow control = None
Step 3 Press Enter. An angle bracket prompt (>) appears.
Step 4 At the > prompt, type the Activate User command to open a TL1 session:
ACT-USER:[<TID>]:<UID>:<CTAG>::<PID>;
Note When the semicolon is typed, the TL1 command is executed immediately.
Step 5 Type the Cancel User command to close a TL1 session:
CANC-USER:[<TID>]:<USERID>:<CTAG>;
