Appendix A MML User Interface and Command Reference
Starting an MML Session
The MML commands can be interpreted and monitored through a network Transaction Language 1
(TL1) interface. The TL1 symbols shown in Table A- 2 are used in MML
.
Case Sensitivity
Command names and parameter names are not case sensitive You can enter commands and parameters
in either upper- or lowercase. Filenames are case sensitive when they are used as arguments in MML
commands.
Starting an MML Session
To start an MML session, complete the following steps:
Step 1 Log in to Cisco HSI.
Step 2 Type one of the following commands at the prompt:
• mml
• mml -b batchfile (see the “Starting a Batch File” section on page A-4)
The following example shows the start of an MML session:
user@host> mml
Welcome to the Cisco H.323 Signaling Interface.
gw mml>
Batch Files
The Cisco HSI application supports the use of batch files. You can create an ASCII file of MML
provisioning commands for use as a batch file. You can also use a script file. When the commands are
read, the Cisco HSI executes them sequentially.
The following is an example of an MML provisioning batch file:
prov-sta::srcver="new",dstver="first"
prov-add:name="sys_config",nodeid="H323-GW1"
prov-add:name="h323_sys",messages=30000,channels=5000
