Note: When listing parameter values that
can be used in a command, a range of numbers
is shown as a–b, where any number a, b, or
any number between a and b can be entered.
(Example: 1–12 indicates any number from 1
through 12 inclusive.)
B. Commands
2.03
A command to an NE (Network Element) con-
sists of a command code of up to three fields separat-
ed by hyphens followed by parameter blocks
separated by colons. Figure 1 shows the command
format. Parameter blocks consist of one or more pa-
rameters separated by commas. The semicolon ter-
minator causes execution.
Example:
command-code:parameter:parame-
ter ::parameter,parameter;
2.04
Parameter blocks may be null (contain no pa-
rameters), or contain one or more parameters. Two co-
lons occur next to each other if a parameter block is
null. (Some parameters in the complete TL1 language
set are not used. These unused parameters are left
null in this command set.)
2.05
Multiple parameters in a parameter block are
separated by commas. Two commas occur next to
each other if a parameter is null.
2.06
Entering a semicolon at the end of the com-
mand causes the command to execute.
