Display [Device] Poll List (Dspl) - Paradyne COMSPHERE 6800 Series Command Reference Manual

COMSPHERE 6800 Series Network Management System

Display [Device] Poll List (dspl)

Use the dspl command to display the poll list of a COMSPHERE 3400/4400 Series modem, a
COMSPHERE 3900 Series modem, or COMSPHERE 3600 Series DSU, a DATAPHONE II APL
modem, DSU or Shared Diagnostic Unit (SDU). Use the Acquire [Device] Poll List (acpl)
command to establish a poll list, and the Change [Device] Poll List (chpl) command to add or
delete devices to or from the poll list.
Polling is the process by which alarms from devices in the network are automatically reported to
the NMS. Once a poll list is established for a device, the device monitors everything on its poll list
for health and status.
For most commands, NMS enables you to specify the destination for the command's results and
schedule its execution. If the last page of the input form cannot accommodate the Destination for
results and Schedule execution fields, an additional page is provided. For a complete description
of these fields, refer to Chapter 1, Introduction.
