Cisco ONS 15454 and Cisco ONS 15327 TL1 Command Guide, R3.3

Chapter 3 TL1 Command Descriptions
TL1 Commands
3.5 TL1 Commands
The commands and autonomous messages used for ONS 15454 and ONS 15327 are described in detail
in this section and are listed alphabetically according to the first alpha character of the command string.
Each TL1 command must be less than or equal to 255 characters. Any command larger than 255
characters must be split into multiple commands. For example, if you use the ED-<STS_PATH>
command to edit the J1 EXPTRC/TRC message, UPSR attributes, and TACC attributes and the
command exceeds 255 characters the command will not be processed. You must use multiple
ED-<STS_PATH> commands instead.
Note The AID of any TL1 line mode command is a mandatory field in this TL1 release.
Note The AID definitions provided are supersets of the actual AID definitions.
Note TL1 commands that are entered incorrectly are not completed.
Note Starting with this release (R3.3), all TL1 commands will return the DENY error code without any
additional error messages prior to a successful TL1 login (i.e. prior to a successful ACT-USER
command). Releases earlier than R3.3 either return different error codes; for example, PLNA and IICT
and also additional error messages; for example, Login Not Active.
3.5.1 ACT-USER: Activate User
This command is used to set-up a session with the Network Element (NE).
Notes:
1. Passwords are visible on-screen when entered for the ENT-USER-SECU and ACT-USER
commands. Cisco recommends that you close any windows containing sensitive information after
exiting a TL1 session.
2. In this release, the ACT-USER command does not return the date and time of the last session
established by the UID or the number of unsuccessful session attempts since the last session.
3. This command is now backwards compatible with userids and passwords from ONS 15454 2.X
software versions according to the following rules:
a. The syntax of the userid (UID) and the password (PID) are not checked.
b. Invalid syntax for both the userid and password is permitted, but the user can only log in if the
userid/password match what is in the database.
c. The userid and password cannot exceed 10 characters.
