TL1 Commands and Messages
TL1 Parameter Descriptions
Correlation Tag <ctag>
NOTE: For simplicity, examples and responses in this document will represent the
<ctag> by the lower-case letters ctag.
This field is represented by <ctag>. The correlation tag is used to match commands and responses.
It is sent out as part of the command, and the Wide Bank returns it as part of the response. The
correlation tag is assigned by the user issuing the command and can be arbitrarily chosen. Each
command issued should be assigned a different correlation tag to prevent confusing commands and
responses.
Correlation tags are optional in TL1 commands. The correlation tag can contain between zero and
six alphanumeric characters. If the correlation tag is not issued with the command, the responses to
that command will have a correlation tag with a value of zero.
An invalid ctag will produce the following error response.
