Node IP
This set of configuration options includes a Troubleshooting (TS) Management
Link feature to help service providers isolate device problems within their
networks. This feature allows Telnet or FTP access to the unit on this link.
Troubleshooting over this link is essentially transparent to customer operations.
No alarms or SNMP traps are generated to create nuisance alarms for the
customer.
TS_Access_Management_Link is initially disabled in most models, but the link
can be enabled at any time. Any valid network Management PVC created on a
standard DLCI can be used. When enabled, a troubleshooting link can be
accessed any time the service provider requests access. An assigned security
level can also control access.
When a DLCI has been defined as the troubleshooting management link, the
link is identified in the status field at the bottom of the Management PVC Entry
screen with the Note: This PVC has been designated as the TS
Access Management Link message.
NOTE:
The unit may come from the factory with a TS Management PVC already
set up (e.g., 980).
