Automatic Download Actions
1. System Reboot/Restart
A global download action is initiated when periodic maintenance tests
begin after a system reboot/restart, regardless of whether the parameters
have been downloaded previously.
2. Periodic Tests
If the download flag is still set when periodic tests are run on a terminal, a
download action will occur. This action is required in case a terminal could
not be downloaded previously, because:
■ It was off-hook at the time the system first booted, or
■ The terminal was off-hook at the time the translation associated with
downloadable parameters was changed.
NOTE:
It may take more than an hour for periodic tests to reach the terminal
that needs to be downloaded.
3. Terminal Administration
A downloadable terminal is automatically downloaded when translation
changes associated with downloadable parameters are made as part of
system administration. As shown in the previous table, these changes can
be for a specified terminal or may be system-wide. If the change is for a
system-level parameter, a background global update request must be
submitted to download all programmable terminals.
NOTE:
This global update may take more than an hour for a system with
several thousand programmable terminals.
4. Port Insertion
Whenever maintenance software initiates a request to place a port into
service, a terminal download action is begun on that terminal, if that
terminal is programmable. This port insertion action occurs under the
following circumstances:
■ A digital line circuit pack that is physically inserted into the system
and has ports currently administered for programmable terminals.
■ A station port is added to the system by an add station or change
station command.
■ A TTI port is activated.
