Operator Interface Local Management The OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 can be locally configured, operated, and managed using an operator console connected to the Console port. A terminal (VT-100 or equivalent) or workstation with terminal emulation software can be used for the operator console.
Connect the male end of the DB-25 adapter to the female DB-25 port on the modem. Connect one end of a supplied RJ-45 cable to the RJ-45 port in the DB-25 adapter. Connect the other end of the RJ-45 cable to the Console port on the OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604.
Scroll through the available commands using the Tab key. Ethernet Configuration Tip To avoid Ethernet mismatch problems, the OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router and the network device to which it is attached should both be configured identically for speed and duplex. For example, if the router is configured for auto-negotiation...

CHAPTER 4 Configuration Logging In and the far end is configured manually, the router detects the speed, but defaults to half-duplex mode. To ensure correct operation, either manually configure each device for speed and duplex settings, or configure both devices to auto-negotiate. Installation Guide: 601, 602, and 604 Routers...
The System Administrator login consists of two components: the user name and the password. The initial login name is always alcatel, but you can change this to suit your needs after logging in for the first time. The default password for user alcatel, switch, should be changed as soon as possible to ensure only authorized access to the router.
Configuration Changing Login Parameters System Host Name Use the configure hostname command to assign a host name to the Alcatel router. Once assigned, the host name becomes the command line interface (CLI) prompt name. To configure the host name: Access the terminal configuration mode: Alcatel> configure term Type hostname, and then type a new host name.
To add a new user: Enter the terminal configuration mode: Alcatel> configure term Type user name, enter the name that you want to add, and then enter the access level to be assigned to that name (optional). The user name may be up to 30 characters. The password must be 3-10 characters.
If you change any of the factory default settings, issue the save local command to retain the changed configuration before rebooting. The following tables show the factory default configuration for the Alcatel OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router.

Configuration Configuring Drop and Insert Multiplexing Configuring Drop and Insert Multiplexing Use the Drop and Insert feature to terminate IP traffic on the Alcatel OmniAccess 602 and OmniAccess 604 routers while passing through the DS0s that carry voice traffic. NOTE: The pass through Channel Associated Signaling (CAS) on the E1 interfaces is not supported in this release.
This data bundle is pointed toward the network, and the corresponding DS0s on E1 number 2 are not configured. Alcatel NOTE: starts counting DS0s from 1 for both T1 and E1. Be careful when connecting to other equipment as some vendors start counting from 0.
Page 48
CHAPTER 4 Configuration Configuring Drop and Insert Multiplexing Note that there is no signaling DS0 on a T1. The signaling on the T1 will be a Robbed Bit from within each individual voice DS0, or will be carried within the Facility Data Link (FDL) of an Extended Super Frame (ESF) mode T1.

Boot Process When power is applied to the Alcatel system, the Flash is checked for a downloadable boot image. If a boot image file is found in the Flash, the file is executed. Otherwise, the boot image is executed from the factory image stored in the boot ROM. Next, the Alcatel operating system is loaded from the T1000.Z file residing in the Flash.
OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router with new software. Every system is furnished with a software image file (T1000.Z) and a boot image file (T1000.bin). Using the TFTP protocol, the latest versions of these files can be loaded onto a Alcatel router from any accessible TFTP server.
TFTP daemon. Ensure that network connectivity exists between the Alcatel system being upgraded and the TFTP server holding the new file. Pinging the server from the Alcatel system is a good method to use to prove connectivity.
Upon a download failure (and corruption or deletion of the T1000.Z file in Flash), the OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router may not be able to boot. Make note of which Ethernet interface (0 or 1) connects the system to the tftp server host.
