Performing the Initial SEAS Configuration

This procedure is used to configure the connections to the CCS MR using the chg-seas-config command. This procedure is performed only when configuring the connections to the CCS MR for the first time.

The chg-seas-config command can be used to change the SEAS configuration after the connections have been configured for the first time. Perform the Changing the Existing SEAS Configuration procedure to make this type of change.

The chg-seas-config command uses these parameters.

:conn – The name of the SEAS connection, either IPMR1 or IPMR2

:seasclli – The CLLI part of node name of the EAGLE consisting of one alphabetic character and up to 15 alphanumeric characters. The seasclli value is different from the EAGLE clli value that is entered with the chg-sid command. The seasclli value must also be configured on the Telcordia Message Router (CCS MR). Refer to Telcordia Configuration Specification "Telcordia Technologies System Documentation", BD-SNAM-ADMIN-4 Issue 14, November 2006.

:ipaddr – The IP address of the CCS MR.

:port – The port number of the CCS MR that the EAGLE connects to, from 1024 to 5000.

:hname – The name of the remote host of the CCS MR, 1 to 15 alphanumeric characters.

:login – The login name of the CCS MR, 1 to 15 alphanumeric characters.

:authmode – The method of authentication used for the connection. Currently, only password authentication is used for SEAS connections, so this parameter has only one value, password. This parameter is optional and does not need to be specified.

The hname, login, and authmode parameters are used only when the Eagle OA&M IP Security feature is enabled and turned on. The values for these parameters are displayed in the rtrv-seas-config output only when the Eagle OA&M IP Security feature is enabled and turned on. The status of the Eagle OA&M IP Security feature is shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output.

Caution:

The IP address and port value combination for each SEAS connection must be unique or the chg-seas-config command will be rejected.

The IP address for the SEAS over IP configuration cannot be shown as the IPADDR value in the rtrv-ip-lnk or rtrv-ftp-serv outputs, or the BPIPADDR value in the rtrv-ip-card output.

1. Verify whether or not the SEAS over IP feature is enabled by entering this command.

   rtrv-ctrl-feat:partnum=893018801

   This is an example of the possible output.

   rlghncxa03w 07-05-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 37.0.0
   The following features have been permanently enabled:
   
   Feature Name              Partnum    Status  Quantity
   SEAS over IP              893018801  off      ----
   
   The following features have been temporarily enabled:
   
   Feature Name              Partnum    Status  Quantity     Trial Period Left
   Zero entries found.
   
   The following features have expired temporary keys:
   
   Feature Name              Partnum
   Zero entries found.
   

   If the SEAS over IP feature is enabled, continue the procedure with 2.

   If the SEAS over IP feature is not enabled, perform the Activating the SEAS over IP Feature procedure in this chapter to enable SEAS over IP feature. After the SEAS over IP feature has been enabled, continue the procedure with 2.

2. Display the current SEAS configuration using the rtrv-seas-config command.

   The following is an example of the possible output if the Eagle OA&M IP Security Enhancement feature is not enabled and turned on.

   rlghncxa03w 07-01-23 18:46:01 EST  EAGLE 37.5.0
   SEASCLLI     CONNECTION  IPADDRESS        PORT   TERMINAL
   --------     ----------  ---------        ----   --------
   ------------ IPMR1       -------------    ----   --
                IPMR2       -------------    ----   -- 

   The following is an example of the possible output if the Eagle OA&M IP Security Enhancement feature is enabled and turned on.

   tekelecstp 07-01-23 18:46:01 EST EAGLE 37.5.0

3. Enter the SEASCLLI value by entering the chg-seas-config command with the seasclli parameter. For this example, enter this command.

   chg-seas-config:seasclli=TEAGLESTP001

   Note:

   The SEASCLLI value is different from the CLLI value specified with the chg-sid command.
4. Verify whether or not the Eagle OA&M IP Security Enhancement feature is enabled and turned on by entering this command.

   rtrv-ctrl-feat:partnum=893400001

   This is an example of the possible output.
