Procedure
Follow these steps to access the Vanguard 320 CTP Main menu:
Note
This procedure assumes that a PC or terminal is connected to the Vanguard 320
using the CTP access cable.
CTP Access Via
Remote Telnet
Another way to connect to the CTP, after the node is configured and operational, is to
access remotely via your established IP network by telneting into the node from an
IP network-based personal computer or workstation. You can connect to the CTP by
entering
atds0 <CR>
after the Vanguard 320 outputs the OK prompt.
CTP Access Via
Remote X.25 or
Frame Relay
Network
If the Vanguard 320 is operating in an X.25 network, or if Frame Relay Annex-G is
used to connect with other Vanguard Managed Solutions nodes, you can access the
Vanguard CTP remotely by making a Switched Virtual Circuit (SVC) call to the
node and specifying subaddress 98.
