Chapter4 Operation, Administration, and Maintenance
Maintenance Manager
The CLI interface resides on the NCB module and operates on the database server for the ONS 15200
system. The CLI interface has two modes of access for users—read-and-write access and read-only
access. Users are separated into three categories: administrator, operator, and guest. Each category has
different privileges:
• Administrator—read-and-write access to security management data
• Operator—read-and-write access to network management data
• Guest—read-only access to network management data
To access the CLI interface, use the Ethernet port on the NCB module or the MA interface on the CIM
module. MA interface access requires a EIA/TIA-232 cable.
4.5 Maintenance Manager
The Maintenance Manager (MM) interactive software tool, installed on a laptop or PC, provides a local
craft interface for the ONS 15200 system. The MM software provides access to the internal data bus at
ONS 15252 MCUs or ONS 15201 SCUs. It also facilitates access to data from isolated ONS 15201 SCUs
in the ONS 15200 network.
In addition to the required cabling, a laptop must have a controller area network (CAN) Personal
Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) board to use the MM software package
as a local craft interface.
Connect your MM-equipped computer to the ONS 15200 system through the MA port as shown in the
following figures. Figure 4-2 on page 4-5 shows the management access connection to an ONS 15252
MCU. Figure 4-3 shows the management access connection to an ONS 15201 SCU.
