Chapter 1 Overview
SSU-2000 Control Languages
20 SSU-2000 Technical Reference 12713020-003-2 Revision F.01 – January 2007
SSU-2000 Control Languages
Software embedded in the SSU-2000 hardware allows operators to query and
manage an SSU-2000 from a local or remote management terminal using one of
three control interfaces. These management agents allow operators to change
factory default settings, set or restore stored configuration settings, configure and
provision the SSU-2000 to meet the requirements of a unique environment, and
perform maintenance and troubleshooting.
The SSU-2000 supports three control interfaces. Each grants access to command
functions according to the security levels assigned to users. The control interfaces
are:
TL1 – The Transaction Language One (TL1) control language, perhaps the
dominant telecommunications industry ASCII command line interface, provides a
standard man-machine language. The TL1 language is defined in Bellcore
document TR-NWT-000831, Issue 3, Revision 1, December 1993.
ICS – The Interactive Command Set (ICS) control language also called the ASCII
command set, can be used to control the SSU-2000 from a terminal connected to
one of the SSU-2000 EIA-232 serial ports.
SNMP – The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) protocol is based
on a client server query-response mode and is supported by Ethernet only.
There are six main executables (software versions) available for the SSU-2000 as
shown in Table 1-2. This section provides information about the TL1 and ICS control
languages for all versions of software.
Chapter 2, TL1 Reference, contains the TL1 commands and responses
Chapter 3, ICS Command Reference, contains the ICS commands and
responses
Chapter 4, NTP and SNMP, describes NTP support functionality and identifies
SNMP command functions, as well as features supported in this software
version.
Recommendation: To ensure optimal system performance using the
Communications module main executable software shown in Table 1-2,
Symmetricom recommends that the module hardware and software
used be at the minimum revision levels as shown in Table 1-1.
