DLP-2 System Login and Menu Access

Introduction

After connecting to the ATLAS via either a VT100 terminal or a PC configured as a VT100 terminal, you

must login to the system to gain access to the management and provisioning functions (menus). This DLP

provides specific steps for system logon and menu access.

Prerequisite Procedures

Complete DLP-1, Connecting the Terminal or PC to the ADMIN or CRAFT Port, before logging in.

Tools and Materials Required

• Data cable to connect to a VT100 terminal or a PC configured as a VT100 terminal.

• VT100 terminal or PC configured as a VT100 terminal.

If the IP has been provisioned (see DLP-3, Setting IP Parameters for the ATLAS 800 Series System,

on page 322), you can also login to the unit using Telnet.

To prevent electrical shock, do not install equipment in a wet location or during a

lightning storm.

Electronic modules can be damaged by static electrical discharge. Before handling modules,

wear an antistatic discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to electronic components. Place

modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing. When working on

modules, always place them on an approved antistatic mat that is electrically grounded.
