2Modem/DSU Commands

2-1476800-A2-GB31-20 January 1997

NOTE

If the inventory state of the specified remote modem is limited

access, the Remote dial number field is a required field. If the

inventory state of the specified remote modem is active, the

Remote dial number field is not displayed. If the inventory state of

the specified remote modem is other than limited access or active

(i.e., stock, on order, repair, removed), an error message is

displayed.

Local master device (Required field)

Enter the local 3800/3900 Series modem to be the clone master. The firmware residing in

the specified master modem will be downloaded to the remote device.

NOTE

If the inventory state of the specified remote modem is active, the

Local master device field is displayed as a protected field. The

field is populated with a link level address derived from the link level

address contained in the remote modem’s device profile. (The

address is derived by stripping the last-level network address from

the remote modem’s link level address.) If no device profile exists or

if your network permission is denied to this modem, the derived

address will not be displayed, and you will receive an error

message.

The input form that appears when a 3900 mp single download is specified only contains the

Remote device and Local master device fields, as described previously.

This input form appears when a 3900 mp link download is specified; it contains the following

field:

Link Participation

Enter the type of multipoint link clone to remote download to be performed. Valid entries

are all and partial. Selecting all allows the download to be performed when all of the Poll

List Active link-attached remote modems are participating in the download process.

Selecting partial allows the download even if there are nonparticipating modems in the

Active Poll List. Selecting partial runs the risk of having modems with different

firmware versions in different tributaries being on the same line. A confirm message will

display asking you to continue or cancel.

Since multipoint link firmware download depends on the active poll list, the accuracy of

the active poll list is critical to the success of the download. Another confirm message

will display, asking you to verify the correctness of the active poll list before executing

the download.
