Telnet to access TTY for MTC SCH BUG, etc. 1

[jeanvaljean]

I need to be able to 'telnet' to our CS1000M. I have much experience starting with SL1, Meridian One, Succession and now CS1000; and can connect via modem w/procomm or Hyper Term,direct connect with a DEC VT, PC w/procomm, or similar. But I don't get how to use Procomm to access the switch via LAN.

FYI, I am basically LAN literate, and I do know how to set up an ELAN for Symposium/Call Pilot/OTM etc. but I am trying to find out how to connect to the maintenance/admin side of the PBX: I think it involves setting up a PTY in ADAN specifying users MTC BUG SCH etc.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

You cannot telnet to a call server. You can rlogin, or, starting with R5.0, SSH. You have to rlogin / SSH to the ELAN IP of the call server; the IP address defined to the default host of PRIMARY_ELAN. I'd suggest PuTTY, which you mentioned in your other post. PuTTY supports telnet, rlogin, and SSH. Use whatever the latest available version is.

Alternatively, you can SSH or TELNET to either the ELAN or TLAN of the signaling server, log in, and at the command prompt type "cslogin" and it'll take you to the PBX overlay shell. Use ~. when finished at the overlay supervisor to close that connection.

Obviously your ELAN and/or TLAN subnets need to be routable from wherever your client PC is.

To allow these connections, build PTY's, yes. LD 17, REQ CHG, TYPE ADAN, ADAN NEW TTY x, TYPE PTY. Build 2-3 PTY's. For USER give them SCH MTC BUG typically. I'd be surprised if you don't already have some if you have Element Manager anywhere; PTY are required for EM. LD 37 STAT TTY will tell you, or LD 22 PRT ADAN TTY.

You could just add a serial to telnet adapter on the RS232 TTY port and connect it the network.
