Introduction

Lucent TURN-UP

Lucent TURN-UP

The CellPipe IAD 4A and CellPipe IAD 8T units support the Lucent TURN-UP
automated provisioning system. TURN-Up is enabled when a user powers up his unit,
which is then automatically configured via the configuration server located at his
Internet Service Provider (ISP). TURN-UP eliminates the need for user configuration
of units and provides centralized management of configuration information.
! Caution: If you attempt to manually configure the unit, a Delete Management Port
message will appear. If you select this option, the Lucent TURN-UP feature will be
disabled to enable you to reconfigure the unit.

Serial connection

You need to establish a serial connection to upgrade software and manually configure
the CellPipe units. Connect a serial cable (a serial communication cable designed for
connecting an external device) from your computer to the CellPipe unit. The cable
must be a high-speed cable that supports the hardware handshaking technique used by
almost all recently manufactured modems. The cable must have the appropriate
connector for connection to a serial communication port on your computer and a
DB-9 connector for connection to the TERMINAL port on the CellPipe unit.

Configuring your communications software

Use a communications program (such as HyperTerm, PROCOMM PLUS, Zterm, or
any other program that supports VT100 terminal emulation) to open a session directly
with the port to which the IAD unit is connected.
Configure your communications software with the following settings. If you are not
already familiar with the settings listed, see the documentation that accompanies your
communications software. If you are using the software for the first time, going
through an online or printed tutorial is a good way to get started.
