Paradyne Hotwire M/SDSL and HDSL2 Termination Units Using the Asynchronous Terminal Interface

Using the Asynchronous Terminal

Interface

2

User Interface Access

You can communicate with the asynchronous terminal interface (ATI) using one of the following methods:

HDirect connection through the Management Serial port of the DSLAM (locally or via an external modem).

HTelnet session using a Network Management System (NMS) connected to a LAN/WAN port on the DSLAM.

HTelnet session through the Embedded Operations Channel (EOC).

NOTE:

Only one asynchronous terminal interface session can be active at a time, and another user’s session cannot be forced to end. To automatically log out a user due to inactivity, enable the Inactivity Timeout option (see Table A-11, Telnet Session Options, in Appendix A, Configuration Options).

Security can limit ATI access several ways. To set up security or a login ID, refer to Chapter 6, Security.

Management Serial Port Settings

Ensure that the device you connect communicates using these settings:

HData rate set to 9.6 kbps.

HCharacter length set to 8.

HParity set to None.

HStop Bits set to 1.

Refer to the installation document for your DSLAM.
