Remote login

Commands cannot be sent to a network element or network processor until an
account is activated on that node. The network processor is considered to be a
remote login.
Because network elements are normally in different geographic locations,
remote maintenance and fault identification is not possible without remote
login.
When addressing a command to a local or remote network element or network
processor, the SID to which the command is addressed is called the target
identifier (TID).

Multiple login sessions

Several user accounts can be active at the same time. When several sessions
are active, commands can be sent to any network element on which the
sessions are active.
Alarms, events and performance monitoring reports are displayed for all
network elements or logged in network processors.
The network element and network processor allow multiple concurrent login
sessions through local or remote connections.
A local connection includes:
•
•
•
•
A remote connection is a login session from a local connection to any other
available network element or network processor.
