Remote View Bootup Diagnostics; Setting Up The Modem; Dialing Into The Spm - Northern Telecom DMS-100 Series Manual

Remote view bootup diagnostics

The following procedure is used by maintenance personnel for logging in to
the service peripheral module (SPM) remotely and viewing the bootup
diagnostics for both the signal processing node (SPN) and the multiserver
processor (MSP) node. The procedures outlined in this section describe how
to reconfigure the modem from a leased-line mode to a mode that will
accept auto-answer and other parameters necessary for remote access to the
SPN. In the first section, the port is set up and the SPN is booted so that the
hardware database is updated to reflect the changes. In the second section
you are shown what to do to log in to the SPN and view the diagnostics.

Note: The Telephony Interface Node (TIFN) cannot be viewed using
this procedure because a reset on the TIFN 68K card causes the internal
modem on the transition modules to also be reset which causes any
modem setup for auto-answer to be lost on subsequent boots.
Change the hardware database on the SPN nodes internal modem port (Port 2)
to a terminal type. This allows User Admin applications to run on that port.
Log in to the TOOLS administration level and configure a User Admin on the
second port of the SPN.
Reboot the SPN by disabling the SPN from the MMI. This reboot allows the
hardware database to pick up the changes made to the port type. For more
information, refer to the procedures for disabling a node in the Card
Replacement Procedures manual, NTP 297-7001-502. When the SPN reboots,
the internal modem is enabled and set up for auto-answer.
Re-enable the SPN if it is disabled.
Dial into the SPN by using the modem command ATDT nnnn (where nnnn is
the phone umber).
Once connected, the bootrom maintains the connection during the bootup
sequence.
