Cisco HSI Configuration

Introduction to MML Command Operation for HSI

After the HSI software is installed, you can configure additional items. The following MML command examples show how to enable DTMF capability on the HSI. (For a description of the sys_config_static entry and the dtmf parameters, please see the section (System Configuration Data).

Initiating an MML Session to Enable DTMF on the HSI

The following MML command example shows how to start an MML session and enable DTMF support of the HSI:

Step 1 As root user, issue the following command:

/etc/init.d/CiscoGW start

Step 2 As mgcusr, begin an MML session by issuing the following command:

mml

Step 3 To enable DTMF support on the HSI, issue the following set of commands:

prov-sta:srcver=active, dstver=myconf

Note The preceding command creates a new configuration, based on the current configuration, called myconf.

prov-add:name=sys_config_static, dtmfsupportedtype=dtmf prov-add:name=sys_config_static, dtmfsupporteddirection=both prov-cpy

restart-softw

Note Certain configuration changes do not take effect until the HSI is restarted. After the restart-softwcommand is issued, the HSI restarts in approximately 20 seconds.

Caution Use MML commands to perform all HSI configuration. Never manually edit system configuration files because they do not undergo the same parse checks as MML commands. In addition, the HSI uses a machine-generated checksum to verify the system files. If you modify the system configuration files manually, the HSI cannot use them and reverts to the base configuration.

Verifying the Configuration

The following MML command examples show how to verify that configuration changes have been correctly processed:

Step 1 To retrieve information about the current provisioning session, issue the following command:

prov-rtrv:list

Note The HSI prints an asterisk next to the currently active configuration.
