Configuring the Measurements Platform Feature

This procedure is used to configure IP communications links between the EAGLE and the customer’s network and enable the Measurements Platform on the EAGLE using these commands:

  • ent-ip-host – Configuring the IP host of the MCPM
  • chg-ip-card – Configuring the IP address of the MCPM
  • chg-ip-lnk – Configuring the IP link assigned to the MCPM
  • chg-measopts – Enabling the Measurements Platform option

These commands contain parameters that are not used in this procedure. Commands User's Guide contains a full description of these commands.

The Measurements Platform requires measurements FTP servers. A maximum of three measurements FTP servers can be configured with one of these procedures.

MCPMs must be configured in the database before this procedure can be performed. This can be verified with the rtrv-card command.

If a Class B IP address is specified for the ipaddr parameter of the chg-ip-lnk command, the subnet address that results from the ipaddr and submask parameter values cannot be the same as the subnet address that results from the pvn and pvnmask, fcna and fcnamask, or fcnb and fcnbmask parameter values of the chg-netopts command. The pvn and pvnmask, fcna and fcnamask, or fcnb and fcnbmask parameter values can be verified by entering the rtrv-netopts command. Choose ipaddr and submask parameter values for the IP link to the MCPM whose resulting subnet address is not be the same as the subnet address that resulting from the pvn and pvnmask, fcna and fcnamask, or fcnb and fcnbmask parameter values of the chg-netopts command.

  1. Display the cards in the database using the rtrv-card command.

    This is an example of the possible output.

    If no MCPMs are configured in the database, identified by the entries MCPM in the TYPE field and MCP in the APPL field, go to the Adding a Measurement Collection and Polling Module (MCPM) procedure and configure the required MCPMs.

  2. Display the status of the MCPMs in the database with the rept-stat-meas command.

    This is an example of the possible output.

        CARD 1106 ALARM STATUS = No Alarms
    
    If the status of the MCPM that the IP Link is being assigned to is OOS-MT DSBLD, continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If a Class A or C IP address will be specified for the ipaddr parameter in 6, continue the procedure with 5.
    • If a Class B IP address will be specified for the ipaddr parameter in 6, continue the procedure with 4.

    If the status of the MCPM that the IP Link is being assigned to is not OOS-MT DSBLD, continue the procedure with 3.

  3. Inhibit the MCPM using the rmv-card command, specifying the card location of the MCPM.

    If the MCPM to be inhibited is the last MCPM that is in service, the force=yes parameter must also be specified. For this example, enter this command.

    rmv-card:loc=2107

    When this command has successfully completed, this message should appear.

    rlghncxa03w 06-10-01 09:12:36 GMT  EAGLE5 36.0.0
    Card has been inhibited.
    
    Continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If a Class A or C IP address will be specified for the ipaddr parameter in 6, continue the procedure with 5.
    • If a Class B IP address will be specified for the ipaddr parameter in 6, continue the procedure with 4.
  4. The subnet address that results from the ipaddr and submask parameter values of the chg-ip-lnk command cannot be the same as the subnet address that results from the pvn and pvnmask, fcna and fcnamask, or fcnb and fcnbmask parameter values of the chg-netopts command.

    Display the pvn, pvnmask, fcna, fcnamask, fcnb, and fcnbmask parameter values of the chg-netopts command by entering the rtrv-netoptscommand.

    If error message E3967 Cmd Rej: E5IS must be on is displayed after the rtrv-netopts command is executed, the pvn, pvnmask, fcna, fcnamask, fcnb, and fcnbmask parameters are not configured. Continue the procedure with 5.

    This is an example of the possible output if the E5IS feature is on.

    Choose ipaddr and submask parameter values for the IP link to the MCPM whose resulting subnet address is not be the same as the subnet address that resulting from the pvn and pvnmask, fcna and fcnamask, or fcnb and fcnbmask parameter values of the chg-netopts command. Continue the procedure with 5.

  5. Display the IP link assignments using the rtrv-ip-lnk command.

    The following is an example of the possible output.

  6. Assign an IP link to the MCPM using the chg-ip-lnk command with these parameters: loc, port=a, ipaddr, submask, speed=100, mcast=yes, duplex=full.

    For this example, enter this command.

    chg-ip-lnk:loc=2107:port=a:ipaddr=150.1.1.1:submask=255.255.255.0 :speed=100:mcast=yes:duplex=full

    CHG-IP-LNK:   MASP A - COMPLTD
    
  7. Assign a default router to the MCPM using the chg-ip-card command with these parameters: loc, srchordr, domain, and defrouter.

    For this example, enter this command.

    chg-ip-card:loc=2107:srchordr=local:domain=nc.tekelec.com :defrouter=150.1.1.50

    When this command has successfully completed, this message should appear.

    CHG-IP-CARD:   MASP A - COMPLTD
    
  8. Display the current IP host information in the database by entering the rtrv-ip-host:display=all command.

    The following is an example of the possible output.

    rlghncxa03w 07-13-13 09:12:36 GMT EAGLE5 45.0.0

    IP Host table is  (3 of 4096) <1% full
    
  9. Assign an IP host to the MCPM using the ent-ip-host command.

    For this example, enter this command.

    ent-ip-host:host=gw100.nc.tekelec.com:ipaddr=150.1.1.1

    When this command has successfully completed, the following message should appear.

    rlghncxa03w 06-10-01 21:18:37 GMT EAGLE5 36.0.0
    ENT-IP-HOST: MASP A - COMPLTD
    
  10. Place the MCPM back into service using the rst-card specifying the location of the MCPM.

    For this example, enter this command.

    rst-card:loc=2107

    When this command has successfully completed, this message should appear.

    rlghncxa03w 06-10-01 21:20:37 GMT EAGLE5 36.0.0
    Card has been allowed.
    
  11. Display the FTP Server configuration using the rtrv-ftp-serv command.
    rlghncxa03w 06-10-01 09:12:36 GMT EAGLE5 36.0.0
    FTP Client Security: OFF

    The EAGLE allows three FTP servers for the Measurements Platform. If no FTP servers or one FTP server is in the database, go to the Adding an FTP Server procedure, and backup the FTP server. To change any of these configured FTP servers, go to the Changing an FTP Server procedure.

  12. Verify whether or nor the Measurements Platform option is enabled (PLATFORMENABLE = on) using the rtrv-measopts command.
     e1061001 11-12-05 18:50:10 EST  EAGLE5 44.0.0-64.16.0
        PLATFORMENABLE   = off
        COLLECT15MIN     = off
        CLLIBASEDNAME    = off
        OAMHCMEAS        = off
        ----------------------
        SYSTOTSTP        = on
        SYSTOTTT         = off
    

    Note:

    The rtrv-measopts command output contains other fields that are not used by this procedure. If you wish to see all the fields displayed by the rtrv-measopts command, see the rtrv-measopts command description in Commands User's Guide.
    Continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If the Measurements Platform option is enabled, continue the procedure with 15.
    • If the Measurements Platform option is not enabled, continue the procedure with 13.
  13. Enable the Measurements Platform option using the chg-measopts command with the platformenable parameter.

    For this example, enter this command.

    chg-measopts:platformenable=on

    When the chg-measopts command has successfully completed, this message should appear.

    rlghncxa03w 06-10-01 00:22:57 GMT  EAGLE5 36.0.0
    CHG-MEASOPTS: MASP A - COMPLTD
    
  14. Verify the status of the MCPM using the rept-stat-meas command.

    For this example, enter this command.
