CLI Command List

Read Remote Connections

Purpose: Displays crossconnections between interfaces inside the remote Access Bank II, including the T1 connection to the Access Navigator DS1. This command permits the operator to remotely read the actual Access Bank II crossconnect settings through the DS1’s CAC FDL management channel.

NOTE: All read remote commands require that the remote Access Bank II is operational and connected to an Access Navigator drop DS1 using Carrier Access FDL management protocol. If configuration downloading is enabled, the read remote and show remote settings should be the same.

NOTE: The read remote commands show the actual settings of the remote device, while the show remote commands display the settings stored in the Access Navigator’s data base. Both commands should display the same settings when remote configuration is enabled so the Access Navigator can provision the remote Access Bank II.

Security: Level 3 (monitor)

Syntax: read remote <n> connections

Field

n

Description

DS1 number, 1 to 32.

Example: read remote 9 connections

This command produces a message similar to the following. The message shows static connections between each span and channel as a table, where the span is the interface and the channel is the DS0.

NOTE: An Access Navigator DS1 may connect to either T1 port of the Access Bank II. The following message example shows that the Access Navigator DS1 is connected to T1#2 of the Access Bank II, so that T1#1 becomes the T1Drop port. No DS0 channels are currently connected to T1#1.

NOTE: In the Access Bank II/SDSL, the SDSL port replaces T1#2.

Each row and column represents one end of the connection (row is span, column is channel). Note that some spans have two rows of channels, with channels 1 to 12 in the first row and channels 13 to 24 in the second row.

The table entry at the row-column intersection represents the other end of the connection (span:channel). Each interface name in the first column has a span number shown in parentheses. For example, FX#2 (4) means the FX#2 is span number 4, so the entry “4:2” means span 4 channel 2. Table entries with the letters “n/c” have “no connection.”

In the message example below, row T1#2 (2) and column CH 13 represent span 2 channel 13. The corresponding table entry is “4:1”, which represents span 4 channel 1.
