| INSTALLATION |
Note that previous software loads and user configuration files are not destroyed when an upgrade or configuration change is installed. The BCU/CAL archives up to 3 of the last installations in the "1.2/backup" directory. These can be retrieved by the operator in the event of problems with a new software installation, or errors in the end user modified configuration files.
4.3. CAL TERMINAL SERVER CONFIGURATION
The CAL feature of the BCU/CAL supports up to 2 Emulex P2516 Terminal servers. Each terminal server provides 16 serial ports. Of these, 15 are readily accessible for System Manager site controller interfaces, with one port (port 1) being used for initial terminal server configuration.
Temporarily disconnect the Ethernet LAN connection from the terminal server. Connect a “dumb” VT100 compatible terminal to port 1 of the terminal server to be configured. This corresponds to port 1 on the BCU/CAL distribution panel for the first terminal server and port 17 for the second terminal server. The terminal should be configured for 9600 baud, 1 start bit, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
Log in to the first terminal server under the privileged account.
If you are greeted with a # prompt, first execute the following command:
#access
If the server requests a password enter
Server> su
Password> system
system is the default privileged account password. This can be changed later.
Set the terminal type used to configure the server.
Server>> change port 1 type VT100
Define the IP address and subnet mask of the terminal server. The IP address, terminal_server_ip, must reflect the associated address defined in the CAL.DAT file. The subnet mask, subnet_mask, should be the same as defined for the BCU/CAL in the IP.DAT configuration file. Note that subnet_mask should be in dotted decimal notation instead of the hex format shown in the IP.DAT file.
Server>> set server ip terminal_server_ip
Server>> set server subnet mask subnet_mask
Server>> set server subnet mask 255.255.240.0
For each site defined in the CAL.DAT file, configure the associated port on the terminal server as follows:
Server>> change port port_no access remote Server>> change port port_no type softcopy Server>> change port port_no autobaud disabled Server>> change port port_no speed 19200
Server>> change service PORT_<port_no> <TCP port_no> port port_no telnet disabled Server>> change port port_no queuing disabled
Server>> change port port_no flow control disabled
TCP port_no is the value defined in CAL.DAT for a particular site.
