Installationbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb Group 300 Cable Connection The DEFINITY LAN Gateway does not use this connection. LAN Connection Make the following connections: A 10BaseT twisted pair cable with a male RJ-45 connector must be present at the wall field, no further than 25 feet from the back of the switch where DEFINITY LAN Gateway resides. The customer is responsible for this LAN connection. A 104A connecting block will be mounted on the wall within reach of this connector. This is supplied by AT&T. Eight wires must be hard-connected across the two mounting blocks inside the 104A prior to mounting it to the wall, as shown in Figure 2-7, 104A Mounting Block. The ends of each wire are stripped of insulation. A punch-down tool is used to press the ends of these eight wires into the mounting blocks. Four protector caps snap over the top of the mounting blocks. NOTE: AT&T service technicians dispatched for DEFINITY LAN Gateway system installation and maintenance may not troubleshoot the customer LAN. The demarcation point for the DEFINITY LAN Gateway LAN is the point of connection into the connecting block where the cord plugs in. The customer is responsible for the following: the LAN cable, the connector at the end of the cable for connection into the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system, and LAN administration not performed by AT&T on the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system. After cutover, the customer is also responsible for maintaining the TCP/IP addresses and administration on the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system unless otherwise specified by contract.

Installationbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb TN2170 RS-232 Connection This connection is used for customer access to the DEFINITY LAN Gateway application. See Task 7 for wiring information. Task 7: Install the Terminal (Optional)bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb This task is optional, but the temporary installation described below is recommended to facilitate initial administration of the DEFINITY LAN Gateway application. You can install a terminal or a terminal emulator device, such as a PC or laptop, to perform administration and maintenance operations. The terminal may be permanently installed, or may be temporarily installed when direct administration or maintenance is desired. The connection for a directly attached terminal is always available for AT&T services personnel. This terminal is usually connected via a direct cable to Admin/Port B, but can be connected remotely if desired. NOTE: Once initial administration is completed, the directly connected terminal may be disconnected and further administration and maintenance may be accomplished over the LAN with a terminal emulator that supports Telnet access. The terminal can be connected to Admin/Port B in one of four ways: Via a direct connection Via modems Via Asynchronous Data Units (ADUs) Via 7400A data sets The connectivity for all supported terminals is similar. Therefore, the subtasks for this task are the same for all supported terminals. See Appendix B for a list of supported terminals and modems. If you are connecting a PC using G3-MA software (formerly SAT-PC) as an DEFINITY LAN Gateway administration/maintenance terminal, see DEFINITY Communications System Generic 3 Management Applications Station Provisioning, 555-229-202, for installation instructions. If you are connecting a generic PC with a terminal emulation package, you must ensure that the terminal emulation package is set to support a terminal type listed in Appendix B. Issue 1 January 1996 2-17
Installationbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb Keep in mind that the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system is data terminal equipment (DTE), and the switch is data communications equipment (DCE). Therefore, you may need to install a null modem to complete the DTE/DCE pair when connecting the PC. MFB Port Usage The MFB Y-cable has two RS-232C connectors labeled Main/Port A and Admin/Port B. The administration and maintenance terminal should be connected to Admin/Port B. Some system diagnostic messages, created only when the system is initializing, are sent to Main/Port A. These additional messages are not useful during normal operation of the system. Perform one of the four Subtasks (7A, 7B, 7C, or 7D, depending on the connection type) to connect a system-access terminal to Admin/Port B. Use Worksheet B-1, Terminals/Modems, to determine which tasks to complete. The descriptions of Tasks 7B, 7C, and 7D assume that you are connecting a remote terminal to Admin/Port B. You can also use these tasks for a remote connection to Main/Port A by substituting A for B in the descriptions. Task 7A: Install a Terminal via a Direct Connection Refer to Figures 2-8, Installing a Terminal via Direct Connection, and 2-9, Installing a Terminal via Direct Connection (DC Switch Only), while performing this task. 2-18 Issue 1 January 1996

Installationbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb 1. If you are installing a new terminal, unpack it according to the instructions supplied with the terminal. 2. Place the terminal on a suitable table within 15 feet of the switch cabinet if you have a 20-foot ED-1E434 Group 311 cable, or within 45 feet if you have a 50-foot ED-1E434 Group 311 cable, and connect the keyboard. 3. Connect an ED-1E434 Group 311 cable between the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system MFB and the terminal: a. Attach one end of an ED-1E434 Group 311 cable (supplied with the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system PEC) to the RS-232 connector labeled PORT B on the MFB Y-cable. b. If you connected a 116A to the PORT A and PORT B connectors on the Y-cable (in Task 4), attach the ED-1E434 Group 311 cable to the 116A (for a DTE connection). For a DCE connection, attach another null modem to the 116A, and attach the ED-1E434 Group 311 cable to the other end of the null modem. c. For a 715 BCT, attach the other end of the ED-1E434 Group 311 cable to the DCE connector on the back of the terminal. Then skip to Step 4. For a 513 or equivalent BCT, attach the other end to the female connector on an H600-258 Group 1 null modem. d. Connect the male connector on the null modem to an RS-232 serial port connector on the back of the terminal. 4. Plug the terminal power cord into a wall outlet and power on the terminal. 5. Set the terminal options. See Appendix B, ``Supported Terminals and Modems/Option Settings, for a complete list of option settings for supported terminals. NOTE: When installing a serial printer on all but a 610 or 615 BCT, set the options on the printer as described in the manual supplied with the printer, then set the corresponding options on the terminal to match. On the 610/615, set the terminal options first, then set the printer options. If the terminal is installed correctly (and the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system is in either OAM or OS state), the screen displays the login prompt. If the terminal does not display the login prompt when the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system is in one of the above states, try pressing the Return key a few times. If the login prompt still does not appear, write down the state displayed on the LCD and then see the troubleshooting procedure for terminal connections in Appendix D. 2-20 Issue 1 January 1996
