Identity (Id) - Paradyne COMSPHERE 6800 Series Command Reference Manual

Identity (id)

Use the id command to obtain information on a DATAPHONE II or COMSPHERE devices.
The command options enable you to update the model, serial number, and the product type
information in the device profile for a device you are upgrading, or you can choose to view the
device identification information without updating the device profile.
The results of this command originate from the device itself and not from the device profile
database.
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.

Identity Command Results Forms
Different results forms display depending on the device specified. The results forms list device
information for each device and the identity information returned from the device. Figure 2-55 is a
sample of Page 1 of the Identity (id) command results forms for a 3400/4400 Series modem.
Depending on the model of the modem and its configuration, some of the fields may not be
displayed. A results form similar to the 3400/4400 Series modem results form will display for a
3600 Series DSU (Figure 2-56). For 3600 Series DSUs with the LPDA-2 option installed, a
module information field also displays on the results form. Results forms are also displayed for
COMSPHERE 3800 Series and 3900 Series modems.
