Wide Bank 28 DS3 - Release 2.4 July 2004 9-11
TL1 Commands and Messages
TL1 Setup and Configuration
Setting the Initial TL1 Admin Password
A new Wide Bank has no TL1 users in the TL1 user database. So before you can log into the TL1
interface the first time, you must set an initial TL1 administrator Password ID (pid) through the CLI
interface.
Enter the initial password with the following CLI command:
TL1 password "password"
This password is valid only with the user name “admin,” which is automatically assigned to the first
user to log in after installation. Logging into the TL1 interface with the user name “admin” and the
initial TL1 password will start a TL1 session with administrator privileges to add other users.
Activating a TL1 User Session
The Wide Bank 28 DS3 can accommodate up to five TL1 user sessions simultaneously:
1. One session through the 25-pin RS-232 (TL1) port.
(9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no flow control)
This interface has no session timeout.
2. Three TCP/IP sessions through the Ethernet port using a port address.
(Example: telnet 192.168.2.247 9999)
The default session timeout for this interface port is 31 minutes, which is configurable using the
command SET-ATTR-SECUDFLT on page 9-77.
NOTE: Address 9999 is the default TL1 port address. The TL1 port address can be set
to any number between 1024 and 65535, inclusive. This value must be set using the CLI
tl1 portnumber command (see TL1 on page 8-81). When using the Windows Telnet
program, the TCP/IP port address must be entered through a separate dialog box.
NOTE: “Local Echo” must be turned on for TL1 sessions using the TL1 port number.
3. One CLI session issuing TL1 commands.
TL1 commands are entered using double-quotes following the TL1 field.
Example:
(A:Active)> tl1 "ACT-USER:tid:UserName:ctag::password;"
TL1 Commands and Response Messages
NOTE: For simplicity, examples and responses in this document use the lower-case
letters tid and ctag to represent the optional Target Identifier and Correlation Tag. The
target identifier is optional but if it is included in a command, must be correct or the
command will be denied. The correlation tag is optional and is an alphanumeric string,
which if entered in a command, will be echoed in the corresponding response message.
