    Section 8 Controller Configuration Options 8.0 Section Overview • The ATC300/200 controller is equipped with an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agent that allows remote access using an SNMP manager. • CommScope provides the MIB (Management Information Base), which is supported by the ATC300/200 controller SNMP agent, upon request. • SNMP is a well-defined protocol used in the industry to manage devices remotely. • The ATC300/200 controller allows configuration of the unit site name. • The ATC300 allows password protection on the web page interface.
  • Page 76 BSA trap mode will configure the controller to send traps that contain only the index of the alarm causing the trap. BSA trap mode is the default configuration, since this is usually sufficient. The WIG trap mode will send a trap that contains much more information about the trap. The System Location, Contact, and Name fields are purely informational fields stored on the controller and retrievable using standard SNMP queries. 3. Select Set SNMP Agent Config to send the modified configuration to the controller. (To set the SNMP configuration back to default values, select Factory Defaults.)

    8.2 Security and Site Sharing (ATC300-1000/2000 only) ATC300 software releases 2.32 through 2.35 offer simple web interface security. As of release 2.36, this feature is enhanced to offer a second level of security to support site sharing. The controller’s web interface password protection can be accessed through the menu option Con- figuration → Controller Config (as shown in Figure 7-2). • Once enabled, the password will be required to access the controller’s web interface. • The password is case-sensitive and must consist of alphanumeric characters only. • After 3 minutes of inactivity, the operator will be logged out. Any control action will require re-entry of the password. • A logged in administrator may disable site sharing from the “Controller Config” web page. • When an operator is logged in, the option to Logout is available from the controller web page main menu. • If the password is forgotten, contact technical support with the controller serial number for a recovery password. • The web interface password is separate from and does not affect the system-level root password of the controller required for a serial or telnet connection. • The web interface password does not affect access to the controller through the SNMP interface. • The web interface password does not interfere with downloads to the controller using CommScope’s IP Config Tool. • For security purposes, the browser back button has been disabled. To enable site sharing, select “Enable Site Sharing” as shown in Figure 8-3. www.commscope.com © 2016 CommScope, Inc. All rights reserved.

  • Page 79: Site Sharing Configuration

    8.2.1 Site Sharing Configuration ATC300 software release 2.36 provides the capability for site sharing. A logged in administrator must enable and configure the operator usernames and passwords, scan the AISG bus for devices, and assign operators to each device. Operators are limited in their privileges, and are permitted to only view and manage the AISG devices to which they have been assigned. When the administrator is logged in, two new buttons are available, Manage Operators and Assign Operators to Devices (see Figure 8-5 Controller Configuration Options for Site Sharing Administra- tor). These two features are covered in the next sections. In addition, the menu displays an option to Logout. This menu item is available to all logged-in operators as well. Figure 8-5 Controller Configuration Options for Site Sharing Administrator 8.2.1.1 Operator Name and Password Management The administrator may create up to four operator names and passwords (see Figure 8-6 Operator Management Web Page). These can later be assigned to AISG devices that have been found on the bus. Note that when an operator name is modified, any AISG devices assigned with that operator name will be unassigned. That is, the administrator must revisit the Assign Operators to Devices web page and reassign those devices with operator names. The controller maintains alarm history logs specifically for each operator, containing alarm logs for www.commscope.com © 2016 CommScope, Inc. All rights reserved.

Figure 8-6 Operator Management Web Page 8.2.1.2 Assigning Operators to Devices Before entering this web page, the administrator should perform an AISG bus device scan (Home | Find Devices). This web page provides an administrator the capability to assign operators to AISG devices that were previously found in device scan. The page displays a list of the AISG devices, along with a drop-down option list of the defined operators for each device. The administrator may select one operator for each device. The same operator may be assigned to multiple devices. Devices do not have to be assigned an operator. To unassign an operator, the blank operator name option can be selected. (See Figure 8-7 Assigning Operators to AISG Devices). Logged-in operators will be able to view and manage only those devices to which they have been assigned. If an operator name is deleted or modified from the Manage Operators web page, any devices assigned with that operator name will become unassigned. www.commscope.com © 2016 CommScope, Inc.

  • Page 82: Site Configuration

    639544 8.3 Site Configuration The controller allows configuration of other options that can be accessed through the menu option Configuration → Controller Config (as shown in Figure 7-2). 8.3.1 Site Name The controller site name defaults to “RET1 ASCU” but can be modified at any time. This identifier is not usually important unless the controller is one of many nodes managed by network management software such as CommScope’s Site Manager. 8.3.2 External Bus Power (ATC300-1000/2000 only) By default, the ATC300-1000/2000 limits the number of ALD devices in its database to 32 due to power requirements. However, if the devices are externally powered, this option may be selected to expand that limit to 64 ALD devices. 8.3.3 Alarm Relay Configuration (ATC300-1000/2000 only) The alarm relays on the ATC300-1000/2000 are “normally open” by default. This option changes that logic and treats the relays as “normally closed”. Note that after changing this configuration, the controller may need to be rebooted for the relays to reflect the current alarm states correctly. www.commscope.com © 2016 CommScope, Inc.

  • Page 195: Section Overview

    • ATC200 controllers and ATC300 with software version 2.32 and earlier require an FTP server to upload the firmware files (including the latest antenna definition file) to the controller and AISG devices. • The IP Config Tool can be used as the FTP server. (If the PC and controller are already connected, it is not necessary to use the New IP Info tab. Directly choose the FTP Server tab in the IP Config Tool window). See Section 9.3. Another FTP application may be used as long as it provides the same functionality. CommScope cannot guarantee the functionality of an FTP server application. • The Windows XP Service Pack 2 firewall has been found to sometimes interfere with the FTP ® Server application (see Appendix A for instructions on disabling/enabling this firewall). • Periodically, updates are made to the antenna definition file to add data for new antenna models and to maintain the latest data available for existing antennas compatible for the controller system.

    639544 C.3 Uploading the Firmware Bundle to the Controller 1. Download the controller firmware bundle from the CommScope web site (www.commscope.com/ resources / software) Store the files in the root directory for the FTP Server. Note that if the files are zipped, double-click on the zip files to extract the files into the FTP Server root directory. The file that may be uploaded to an ATC300-1000/2000 controller is: • System Firmware Build (atc300_*.tar) The file that may be uploaded to an ATC200-1000 controller is: • System Firmware Build (RET-AN-RT_*.ascu) An asterisk (*) shown in sample firmware filenames represents the firmware version number. Text preceding the version number in the file name will always be consistent and is used to identify the file type. See paragraph C.4 to verify the version numbers for the currently installed control- ler firmware. It may be necessary to type the filenames in with exact upper and lower case lettering, as some FTP servers are sensitive to capitalization for file recognition.

Note that this IP address is specific for the PC running the FTP server and should not be confused with the controller’s network configured IP address. Also, note that only the version numbers at the end of the filename will vary from release to release. The other characters in the filename, as well as the file extension, are used to identify the file type and will consistently stay the same. To upload the file, click on Install System Firmware (Figure C-4). Feedback from a successful install should look similar to that shown in Figure C-5. 5. Click the link labeled Back to return to the Software Configuration screen (Figure C-5). 6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to upload additional controller software/antenna definition files, or click on Reboot to activate a software package that was uploaded.

  • Page 201: Uploading Firmware To Aisg Devices Using The Atc300/200 Controller

    639544 C.4 Uploading Firmware to AISG Devices using the ATC300/200 Controller The controller offers the capability to field upgrade AISG-compliant devices, including both CommScope and non-CommScope devices. Prior to uploading the firmware to an AISG device, the controller must be connected to the RET cable running to the device on the tower and recognize the RET device through an earlier device scan. RET devices recognized by the controller will show in the Device Information window of the controller’s main interface screen (Figure C-6). If a device search has not yet been performed, see Section 10 to do so before proceeding. In addition, the correct firmware file must be obtained from the supplier and available for the device targeted for upgrading. It is the operator’s responsibility to ensure the firmware is appropriate for the device type and model. Uploading incorrect firmware to a device could result in incapacitating the device permanently. 1. (For ATC200 and ATC300 version 2.32 and earlier) The FTP Server must be configured and run- ning, and the device firmware files must be present in the FTP Server root directory. 2. From the controller’s main interface screen, click on Show Statistics (Figure C-6). 3. Note the Product Type of the AISG devices in the database. Generally, a device firmware file will be appropriate for only one Product Type. Click on Manual Upgrade (Figure C-7). Click on Show Statistics. Figure C-6. Selecting Show Statistics.
  • Page 202 639544 Click on Manual Upgrade Figure C-7. Manually Upgrading AISG-Compliant Devices. 4. Click on the check box(es) at the far right to select one or more devices for a sof tware upload. As noted in Step 2, the Product Type should be the same for all selected devices, and should be the targeted Product Type for the device firmware file. Note that uploads are performed in succession to each selected device. If several devices are selected, the entire upload process can be time- consuming. (Figure C-8a). 5. (For ATC200 and ATC300 version 2.32 and earlier) In the Firmware URL:ftp// field, type in the IP address of the PC that is running the FTP server (and holds the device firmware files), followed by a forward slash and the name of the file that is to be uploaded to the selected devices. If needed, enter a User Name and Password for the FTP server. Finally, click on Install Remote Firmware (Figure C-8a). www.commscope.com © 2016 CommScope, Inc. All rights reserved.
