fault occurs and when a fault clears. Which style of traps the DT-4500-A sends are configured

using the DT-4500-ASNMPTrapVersion OID.

The DT-4500-A supports MIB2 SNMPv1traps and SNMPv2notifications.

6.3 45xxA Telnet Interface

The DT-4500-A provides a Telnet interface for the purpose of Equipment M&C via the standard

equipment Remote Control protocol. The Telnet interface requires user login at the

Administrator level and Read/Write level. An example of the login process is shown here:

Once logged into the Telnet interface as Administrator, you can access the standard remote

control interface defined in Appendix A. REMOTE CONTROL.

6.3.1 Telnet Operation via HyperTerminal

There is a disadvantage when using Windows Command-line as a Telnet client. Since Command-

line cannot translate a ‘\r’ (i.e., carriage return or “CR”) to a ‘\r\n’ (i.e., CR+line feed “LF”) for the

messages coming from Telnet Server, any multi-line Target-to-Controller response (e.g., the

response to the FRW? query) will be displayed as one line, with the latter lines overwriting the

previous lines. In order to view the full response messages, Comtech EF Data recommends use

of the HyperTerminal terminal emulation program, configured as a Telnet client.

Configure HyperTerminal as follows:


1.

Ensure that the connection is made

using TCP/IP (Winsock) instead of

COM1 or COM2, as shown at the near

right.

2.

ASCII Setup (File  Properties 

Settings  ASCII Setup): Check the

"Send line ends with line feeds" option

in the ASCII Sending section, and the

"Append line feeds to incoming line

ends" option in the ASCII Receiving

section, as shown at the far right.
