Introduction

Many third-party applications require serial port interfaces to provide a

connection to a PBX. As well, support staff traditionally use serial ports to

connect maintenance terminals and modems to a system for maintenance. As

the CS 1000E Call Server provides only two local serial ports for these

purposes, an IP-based Terminal Server is required to provide the necessary

standard serial ports for applications.

The CS 1000E system currently supports 2 terminal servers, the

IR-8020M-101 (non-ROHS) and the MRV LX8020S-102AC-R (ROHS).

This chapter contains information on connecting the IR-8020M-101. For

Communication Server 1000E Installation and Commissioning

Page 252 of 466

Connecting an IR-8020M-101 Terminal Server

information on connecting the MRV LX8020S-102AC-R, see “Connecting

an MRV LX8020S-102AC-R Terminal Server” on page 265.

As the Terminal Server is configured to automatically log in to the active Call

Server upon start-up, only one Terminal Server is required for the system. It

can be located anywhere on the LAN. One connection from each Call Server

COM1 port is connected to the Terminal Server.

Up to 16 TTY ports can be configured with the CS 1000E Call Server. The

Terminal Server can be used as a central point to manage several devices

through their serial ports.

The MRV IR-8020M-101 Terminal Server is used with the CS 1000E system

to provide serial connections for accessing the CS 1000E COM ports. The

user can access each COM port from a local PC through telnet sessions or

from a remote PC by dialing the on-board modem.

The Terminal Server provides IP connections to each Pseudo TTY (PTY)

ports 0-15 for monitoring CDR and traffic reports.

The MRV IR-8020M-101 Terminal Server is supported by the CS 1000E

system. The IR-8020M-101 - In-Reach Standalone has 20 Console Ports and

a V.90 internal modem. A 19-inch rack-mount kit is provided with the unit.

On the MRV IR-8020M-101 Terminal Server, port 20 is the default

management port. It will be used for primary configuration of the IP address,

mask address and gateway address. Port 20 is reserved for configuring the

Terminal Server in a CS 1000E system. Port 1 to 19 can be configured for

Serial Data Interface for the CSE1000E system components.

IMPORTANT!

Before connecting the Terminal Server to another component of the

CS 1000E system, read and understand the documentation provided by

the Terminal Server’s manufacturer.

Introduction

Many third-party applications require serial port interfaces to provide a

connection to a PBX. As well, support staff traditionally use serial ports to

connect maintenance terminals and modems to a system for maintenance. As

the CS 1000E Call Server provides only two local serial ports for these

purposes, an IP-based Terminal Server is required to provide the necessary

standard serial ports for applications.

The CS 1000E system currently supports two Terminal Servers, the

MRV LX8020S-102AC-R (ROHS) and the IR-8020M-101 (non-ROHS).

This chapter contains information on connecting the LX8020S-102AC-R.

Communication Server 1000E Installation and Commissioning

Page 266 of 466

Connecting an MRV LX8020S-102AC-R Terminal Server

For information on connecting the IR-8020M-101, see “Connecting an

IR-8020M-101 Terminal Server” on page 251.

Differences between the two Terminal Servers include:

•

The IR-8020M-101 Management port is port 20. The

LX8020S-102AC-R contains a Diag Port at the front.

•

The IR-8020M-101 contains an external PC card slot; the

LX8020S-102AC-R does not.

•

Commands, command modes and command line interfaces are different

•

Default passwords are different for both

The Terminal Servers can be located anywhere on the LAN. One connection

from each Call Server COM1 port is connected to the Terminal Server.

Up to 16 TTY ports can be configured with the CS 1000E Call Server. The

Terminal Servers can be used as a central point to manage several devices

through their serial ports.

Both Terminal Servers are used with the CS 1000E system to provide serial

connections for accessing the CS 1000E COM ports. The user can access each

COM port from a local PC through telnet sessions or from a remote PC by

dialing the on-board modem.

The Terminal Servers provide IP connections to each Pseudo TTY (PTY)

ports 0-15 for monitoring CDR and traffic reports.

The LX8020S-102AC-R - LX Series Standalone has 20 Console Ports and a

V.90 internal modem. A 19-inch rack-mount kit is provided with the unit.

The DIAG port at the front end of the MRV LX8020S-102AC-R is the default

management port. It will be used for primary configuration of the IP address,

for Serial Data Interface for CS 1000E system components.

IMPORTANT!

Before connecting the Terminal Server to another component of the

CS 1000E system, read and understand the documentation provided by

the Terminal Server’s manufacturer including the Quick Start Guide for

Standard 01.11

October 2008

Connecting an MRV LX8020S-102AC-R Terminal Server Page 273 of 466

xxx.xx.x.xx = Terminal Server IP Address

xxxx = telnet port (for port 1 to 20)

Note: The value of the target telnet port, xxxx, is determined using the

following formula:

TELNET PORT = 2 000 + (port number xx × 100)

For example, if the telnet port is 1, then:

TELNET PORT = 2 000 + (1 x 100)

= 2 000 + (100)

= = 2100

If the Terminal Server IP Address is 47.11.244.101 and the telnet port is

1, then TELNET command line is:

telnet 47.11.244.101 2100

Example:

telnet 47.11.244.101 (telnet to virtual management port)

End of Procedure

Configuring an rlogin port for various applications

The CS 1000E system uses Pseudo TTY (PTY) ports as TTY ports. All serial

applications, such as CDR and Traffic, can be implemented through PTY

ports. PTY ports are configured in LD 17. An external device, such as a

printer, can access a Call Server PTY port through the Terminal Server by

using a remote login (rlogin) session. Using HyperTerminal, follow

Procedure 63 to configure a transparent rlogin port.

Procedure 63

Configuring an rlogin port for various applications

Enable TCP keep alive timer.

TCP Keepalive feature allows to change polling intervals, number

retries, etc.The TCP keep alive timer is mainly required to check if the

link is up.

This procedure explains how to modify the sysctl.conf file, which

contains the TCP Keepalive settings.

To modify the sysctl.conf file:

Communication Server 1000E Installation and Commissioning

Page 274 of 466

Connecting an MRV LX8020S-102AC-R Terminal Server

a. Connect to the management port or virtual management port

b. At the InReach: 0>> prompt, type shell. The shell window opens.

InReach: 0 >>shell

BusyBox v1.1.3 (2006.10.20-12:27+0000) Built-in shell

(ash)

c. It will then go to the LX prompt as shown below. Type the below

command to start editing.

LX:/config# vi sysctl.conf.

d. Once the VI editor starts, start by pressing the letter “i” to enter the

insert mode. Using the arrow keys, the cursor can be moved to the

place where the settings of the keep alive timer are there so that they

can be changed if required.

e. Hit the “Esc” to exit insert mode followed by a “ZZ” to QUIT and

WRITE only if changes where made, to exit and not saving changes

type: q! After the “Esc”.

The following command fixes a problem with zmodem. It limits

the size of the TCP window:

sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_rmem="128 256 512"

Note: The above command is typed in the sysctl.conf.

Similarly many other parameters of the keep alive timer can be

modified.

Use the command: sysctl -a

Examples are (the 3 numbers are the minimum, average and

maximum values):

net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_intvl = 75 ; in seconds

net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_probes = 9

net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_time

= 180; in Seconds

Here the TCP keep alive timer has been changed to 3 min.

After saving the changes using vi editor, exit to Inreach prompt and

reboot the LX server.

InReach:0 >>reboot.

Enable the RLOGIN daemon on the LX.

Connecting an MRV LX8020S-102AC-R Terminal Server

Note 1: It is not advisable to use putty software while trying to do rlogin

Note 2: MRV definition of autoconnect: In Procedure 62 on page 272

and Procedure 63 on page 273 this feature of autoconnect is required.

This command is used to specify whether or not the port will automatically

connect to either a dedicated service or a preferred service when the user logs

onto a port. Autoconnect is automatically enabled for a port when a dedicated

or preferred service is defined for that port. However, it is not disabled when

service is disabled.Autoconnect also specifies whether or not the port should

attempt to re-connect a session when a connection failure occurs.

Re-connection attempts occur at intervals specified by the SERVER

KEEPALIVE TIMER command (between 10 and 180 seconds), and a status

message displays whenever ports that are not configured with a dedicated

service attempt to connect (no messages are given for ports that are

configured with a dedicated service). Re-connection attempts continue until a

connection is made or the user terminates further attempts by entering the

local command mode.

Finally, Autoconnect helps control In-Reach Element Manager activity when

the port uses modem control signals (for example, a port connected to a

dial-up line). Before you can enable Autoconnect, you must define the port for

LOCAL access, enable MODEM CONTROL, and define a dedicated service.

start displaying output when call server application is started (Sysload

Phase1).

1000E SDI connection

SDI connection to the MG 1000E is made at the back. See Figure 122 on

page 284 for location of the 9-pin DTE (male) connector. It is modified to

isolate pins 6, 7, and 8. Use PORT0 of NTBK48AA 3-port SDI cable for

terminal connection.

Note: Connection must be made initially to each MG 1000E to set the

IP address.

MGC serial ports

Each MGC installed in a CS 1000E provides 3 remote SDIs. The maximum

number of TTYs does not change. Therefore, once the maximum TTYs are

configured, no additional TTYs are supported.

The MGC has three serial ports: SDI0, SDI1 and SDI2.

The serial ports can be used for local debug purposes or can be configured in

the CS 1000E Call Server as system terminals in Overlay 17 (see 4.3.1 MGC

TTY Configuration).

During initial configuration either SDI0 or SDI1 must be connected to access

the installation menu.

Note: Only SDI0 has full modem support, as SDI1 and SDI2 do not have

hardware flow control.

Configuring a terminal and SDI ports

Page 283 of 466

SDI2 is not available during the MGC bootup, it cannot be used to access the

installation menus.

All of the SDI ports on the MGC are configured via software. There are no

DIP switches on the MGC for configuring the baud rate of SDI0.

Controlling the baud rate

You can use a switch setting on the SSC’s faceplate to control the baud rate

for port 0. Use LD 17 to configure port 1 and port 2. Make sure the baud rate

and device option settings are set correctly.

•

Use Port 0 for software installation and upgrades. Port 0 is the only

system terminal (SDI) port that you can use for software installation and

upgrades.

•

You can use all three ports on the SSC to connect terminals or modems.

•

Use an NTBK48 3-port SDI cable with the SSC.

Table 23 shows the SDI port numbering.

Connect the system terminal to the cable marked “port 0” on the NTBK48

3-port cable. You require a Modem Eliminator adapter to connect the

system to a TTY terminal. This adapter is included in the CS 1000E and

the Media Gateway cable kits.

If the system is accessed remotely, connect the system modem to the

cable marked “port 1” on the NTBK48 cable.

When instructed, connect the modem to an outside line.

When instructed, test the modem for correct operation when the system

is operating.

Note: You can use the remaining ports for other equipment, such as

CDR devices or TTYs.
