Figure 3-5.Typical port Status Display
From the System Main Screen, you can also access other screens, as shown in Figure 3-5.
These screens are described in the following paragraphs.
3.4.3 Service Type Main Screens
Each port type in the system has a port Main Screen associated with it. You can go from the
System Main Screen to any port Main Screen and configure that device. From a port Main
Screen, you can access a Test Screen to perform tests on the port, or (in some cases) a
Performance Monitor Screen to view transmission performance data.
Figure 3-5 shows the main screen of the IMACS-200 and reflects the port status. On the FXS
line, the user will note the four different ports, and that each port is in a different state. Port
one is on the left, and port four is on the right. The figure displays ‘aslt’ as the status of ports
one through four, which are: port 1 is in active state. Port two is in standby state, which is to
say it is out of service.Port three is in the loopback active state, in other words it is currently
involved in a user-initiated maintenance mode. And finally port four is in a test state, which
is a user-initiated testing mode. These states are used commonly on all the different service
types, and are a quick reference for the status of each port.
Figure 3-6 shows a typical port Main Screen. The highlighted line at the top of every screen
is the header. It lists the node name of the system, the current port type and abbreviated
description, the port design revision and serial number, and the current system date and time.
