Telnet: To use a command line interface in a Telnet window:

1Click Start > Run to open the Run dialog box.

•If a direct connection, type telnet 192.11.13.6 and click OK.

•If a remote connection, type in the IP address of the active media server. (SAT commands are usable only on the active media server.)

2When prompted log in.

Terminal Emulation: To use a command line interface in a terminal emulation window open your terminal emulation application. The terminal emulation program port settings must be configured as follows:

•9600 baud

•No parity

•8 data bits

•1 stop bit

•No flow control

NOTE:

Avaya Native Configuration Manager, Avaya Terminal Emulation, and HyperTerminal are the only terminal emulation programs supported.

Establish a network connection to the active media server using either the IP address or the DNS host name. Use port 5023 for this connection. (SAT commands are usable only on the active media server.) When prompted, log in.

Logins

Initial configuration and upgrades by an Avaya field tech or business partner requires a services login, such as craft or dadmin, assigned to the customer’s system.

After installing the Avaya authentication file, Avaya Communication Manager has a password for the craft login that is unique to the customer’s system and available when connected directly to the media server. To bypass the ASG challenge and response, use this password the next time you log in as craft. Every other means of craft access still require an ASG challenge and response. The revised password is recorded by RFA and is obtained from ASG Conversant at 1-800-248-1234 or 1-720-444-5557.

Customer’s can set up their own logins for accessing Avaya’s media servers. See the Avaya Communication Manager Little Instruction Book for Basic Administration (555-233-756) for specific information. You must have superuser permission to create or change logins and passwords.

NOTE:

When assigning login IDs, do not start them with a number.
