Using the Asynchronous Terminal
Interface
2
User Interface Access
You can communicate with the Hotwire 7984 Standalone Termination Unit with an
asynchronous terminal interface (ATI) using one of the following methods:
H Direct connection through the COM port of the standalone unit or through the
serial port of the DSLAM MCC.
H Telnet session through the Embedded Operations Channel (EOC).
NOTE:
Only one terminal interface session can be active at a time, and another
user’s session cannot be forced to end. To automatically log out a user due to
inactivity, enable the Inactivity Timeout option (see Table A-5, Telnet Session
Options, in Appendix A,
Configuration Option Tables
).
Security can limit ATI access several ways. To limit user access or set up login
IDs, refer to Chapter 7,
Security
.
Communication Port Settings
Ensure that the device you connect communicates using these settings:
H Data rate set to 9.6 kbps.
H Character length set to 8.
H Parity set to None.
H Stop Bits set to 1.
