Total Access 1248 Expansion DSLAM Installation and Maintenance Practice
5-2 61179641L5-5C
Most personal computers or laptops can run communications software that emulates a VT100
terminal. Windows programs such as Terminal or HyperTerminal are two such examples in
the Windows format, but there are many other adequate, commercially available software
packages, virtually all of which allow the PC or laptop to emulate a VT100 terminal. Certain
configuration items must be set on a PC or laptop to act as a VT100 terminal for the Total
Access 1248.
1. Set the parameters of the communications software to the following settings:
• 9600 baud rate
• 8 data bits
• No parity
•1 stop bit
• No flow control
2. Set the PC for direct connect on the appropriate communications port (as opposed to dial
up connection).
3. Plug the male end of the data cable into the Total Access 1248. Make connection to the PC
or laptop as appropriate for the equipment.
Inband Management Interface
To access the Total Access 1248 through the inband management method, use an appropriate
Telnet client to access the management interface of the Total Access 1248 host at the
configured IP address. For detailed information, refer to the Total Access 1248 host unit
Installation and Maintenance Practice.
NOTE
A craft port session takes priority over a Telnet session. An active
craft port session must be terminated before a Telnet session can
be successfully started. When a craft port session is initiated, any
active Telnet session is automatically disconnected.
