Accessing the Control Terminal Port

Introduction

Once you power up a Vanguard 7300, you can access the Control Terminal Port
(CTP) from the PC or terminal attached to the CTP port. To view the power-up
diagnostics, connect to the CTP port before you power up the Vanguard 7300.

Note

For detailed information on accessing and using the CTP, refer to the Vanguard
Basic Configuration Manual
(Part Number T0113) on the Vanguide CD-ROM.

Procedure

Use the procedure in this table to access the Vanguard 7300 CTP main menu:

Note

This procedure assumes you have a PC or terminal connected to your Vanguard
7300 using the CTP-access cable.

CTP Access Via
Remote Telnet

After the node is configured and operational, there is another way to connect to the
CTP. That is by remote access over your established IP network.

You can telnet into the node from an IP network-based PC or workstation. Connect
to the CTP by entering atds0 <CR> after the Vanguard 7300’s OK prompt.

Vanguard
Embedded Web

The Vanguard Embedded Web Navigator allows web management through a
browser. Using any web browser, you can access the web navigator through a TCP/
IP network. For more information on the Embedded Web reference the Software
Release Notice (Part Number T0001-41)

CTP Access Via
Remote X.25 or
Frame Relay
Network

If the Vanguard 7300 is operating in an X.25 network, or if Frame Relay Annex-G is
used to connect with other Vanguard Managed Solutions Network Access Product
nodes, access the Vanguard 7300 CTP remotely by making a Switched Virtual
Circuit (SVC) call to the node and specifying sub address 98.
