ADC Network Unit Manuel D’Utilisation

3-1

This section lists the commands used to operate the ENIU. After the initial installation of an ENIU, most testing and 
local operations are conducted with the Command Line Interface through a VT-100 compatible terminal. This 
terminal is connected to the front panel of the ENIU, and provides a standard EIA-232C interface.

The CLI provides a prompt with a character indicating the user’s privilege level.

The ENIU requires minimal set-up to provide OAM PDU reception, reporting, and remote loop-back functionality.

The ENIU is shipped with a power supply connector, and a serial communications cable. The user must provide 
network cables (Cat5e or better Ethernet cables for electrical interfaces or optical cables appropriate to the SFP for 
optical connections). A PC with HyperTerminal or equivalent is required with an available COM port for status 
monitoring. Follow these steps to connect the unit:

1

Connect Ethernet and/or optical cables to the desired equipment.

2

Connect the serial communications cable to the Command port of the ENIU and to any COM port on the 
local PC.

3

Launch HyperTerminal and configure it for 115200 bits per second, 8 data bits, 0 parity bits, 1 stop bit, 
and no flow control.

4

Connect the power supply to the appropriate connector on the ENIU.

5

Verify that the terminal displays a configuration screen.
