All configurable items in the BROADway chassis are managed through the software interface. The  
backplane of the BROADway chassis is keyed to prevent you from inserting a card in the incorrect slot.  
All BROADway control and line cards are hot-swappable, you can insert cards into systems that are  
either not powered, or systems that are powered.  
Mounting the Chassis in a Rack  
Typically, the BROADway chassis will be mounted within a rack or bay. The BROADway chassis can  
be installed in either a standard 19- or 23-inch rack. A mounting kit included with the chassis provides  
the means to support installation in both types of rack.  
WARNING! WHEN INSTALLING THE CHASSIS IN A RACK, BE CAREFUL TO TRY TO MINIMIZE  
THE AMOUNT OF BLOCKAGE OVER THE AIR INTAKE AND EXTRACTION PANELS TO THE LEFT AND  
RIGHT OF THE CHASSIS.  
As when installing any additional equipment within an existing or planned rack environment, consider  
how powering the BROADway chassis will impact the overall loading of the branch circuit used at the  
rack. A fully loaded BROADway chassis requires approximately 160W to power the system. When  
installing in a rack, make sure that a reliable ground (earth) path is maintained; the BROADway chassis  
is intended to be connected to a good earth ground.

Installation  
Mounting the Chassis in a Rack  
The BROADway chassis can be installed within a rack in two different ways:  
! Front-mounted (flush with the front of the rack)—This is the most commonly used  
mounting option when the rack is sturdily mounted to a wall.  
! Center of gravity mounted (mid-mounted)—This mounting option is used when the rack is  
not sturdily constructed or only attached at the floor. This mounting option centers the chassis  
over the rails so there is less chance for the rack to tip. This is the most commonly used  
mounting option.  
When determining which way you want to mount the chassis, use the option that will keep the rack  
stable and unlikely to tip over.  
To prevent potential damage to interface and control cards, wait until the chassis is properly mounted  
before installing any control or line card options.  
NOTE: It is recommended that you leave 1 rack unit (RU) of space above and below the  
BROADway chassis within the rack for ease of accessibility.  
To mount the chassis:  
1. Determine whether your rack is a 19- or 23-inch rack.  
2. Determine how you want to mount the chassis: front-mounted or center of gravity mounted. If  
you want to mount using the center of gravity position, you must move the mounting ear on  
each side of the chassis as shown in the following figure:  
a. Unscrew the four screws holding the mounting ear on one side of the chassis, rotate the  
mounting ear 180º, move the mounting ear to the next set of holes, and re-insert the four  
screws.  
b. Repeat on the other side of the chassis.

Cabling Power and Ground  
The BROADway chassis accepts a DC power feed directly into the chassis.  
NOTE: To power the BROADway system from an AC supply (110–230 VAC), you must  
use an external AC-to-DC converter.  
As when installing any additional equipment within an existing or planned rack environment, consider  
how powering the BROADway chassis will impact the overall loading of the branch circuit used at the  
rack. A fully loaded BROADway chassis requires approximately 160W to power the system. When  
installing in a rack, make sure that a reliable ground (earth) path is maintained; the BROADway chassis  
is intended to be connected to a good Earth ground such as that provided by building steel, a cold water  
pipe or, preferably, a properly constructed ground plate or bonding network.  
To connect power and ground to the BROADway chassis:  
1. Verify that the ON/OFF (O/I) switch on the back of the chassis is set to OFF (O).  
2. Connect the Earth ground stud on the back of the chassis to a suitable Earth ground as  
previously described.

Cabling the Network Synchronization Port  
Cabling the Network Synchronization Port  
There are two chassis types, BITS and ITU; the difference is in the number and type of network  
synchronization ports. The network synchronization ports (CKIN-1 and CKIN-2) can be connected to  
an external synchronization source that is typically traceable to a Stratum 1 level primary reference  
source. In the U.S. and Canada the BITS chassis expects to see a D4 or ESF framed T1 signal at this  
input. In countries that utilize an E1 network hierarchy, the ITU chassis expects to see a ITU-T G.703  
2.048 MHz square wave signal. These connections are optional and should only be used when external  
timing is required. If a single external input only is available, it should always be connected to CKIN-1  
rather than CKIN-2. For more information about network synchronization, refer to Timing and  
Synchronization in the online help.  
Cabling the Clock Ports on the BITS Chassis  
On the front panel of the chassis are two synchronization clock ports: CKIN-1 and CKIN-2 (one is  
redundant for the other). CKIN-1 connects to NSP-1, and CKIN-2 connects to NSP-2.

Using the ALARMS port, you can do either or both:  
! Connect none, one, or two external sources to alarm sense #1 and #2 to indicate when an alarm  
is coming from the external source.  
! Connect none, one, or two external units to the alarm generation #1 and #2 to tell the external  
units when an alarm has occurred on the BROADway system.  
Alarm Input Sensing  
The ALARMS port provides two separate circuits to detect when an alarm is generated from an external  
source. The circuit will sense an alarm condition when an external +5V potential is placed across pins  
11 and 12 (ALMSNS1) or pins 9 and 10 (ALMSNS2). These pins are isolated from the BROADway  
chassis. If an external voltage is not readily available, a 5V reference and ground are supplied on pins  
13 and 15 and can be looped back onto pins 9 and 10 or 11 and 12, respectively, using the relay contacts.

Alarm Output Reporting  
During a Critical or Major alarm condition on BROADway, the normally open contact (pin 1) is closed,  
and the normally closed contact (pin 3) is opened.  
During a Minor alarm condition on BROADway, the normally open contact (pin 4) is closed, and the  
normally closed contact (pin 6) is opened.  
Alarm Cut Off (ACO)  
The Alarm Cut Off button on the front I/O panel is used to silence the current alarm output. A new alarm  
will re-activate the alarm closures.  
Installing the NSP101 Control Card  
The NSP101 control card is the heart of the BROADway system and contains the narrowband switch  
matrix, the integrated IP router, the network timing synchronization subsystem and the management  
interface into the BROADway node.  
BROADway always requires at least one NSP101 card to operate. Two NSP101 cards can be installed  
to provide redundant operation of the system. If a single NSP101 is used it should be installed in the  
NSP-1 card slot. The second, redundant NSP101 should be installed in the NSP-2 card slot.

Installing the NHP160 Line Interface Card  
BROADway supports up to two NHP160 sixteen port T1/E1 line interface cards installed in slots UIP-  
1 and UIP-2. If you plan to support NHP160 redundant operation, you must install an NHP160 card in  
slot UIP-2, even if there is no NHP160 card installed in slot UIP-1 (the last four ports on the NHP160  
in UIP-2 are designated the protection ports for both slots).

Configuration  
Overview  
Overview  
At this point, the BROADway hardware should have been planned, mounted and cabled as described in  
Now, you must begin to configure the BROADway system software for your application. There are two  
basic methods that can be used to configure the BROADway system software. These are:  
! Using the web browser graphical user interface (GUI)  
! Using the command line interfaces (CLI) locally or from a Telnet session using TL1 and/or  
Packet Services (PS) commands  
Most of your configuration work can be performed using either method of configuration (GUI or CLI)  
with the following exceptions:  
! The initial IP address of the BROADway system Ethernet interface must be configured through  
the CLI.  
! Stacking of multiple systems can only be configured through the GUI.  
You might find it easier to perform configuration work using the GUI. However, there are cases when  
you might prefer to use CLI:  
! When you do not have access to a web browser  
! When you need to write CLI scripts to interface the BROADway management system to  
another machine  
! When you want to perform network management using a CLI because your overall network  
management system operates under a CLI-based system.  
To successfully configure your BROADway system you must, at a minimum, follow these steps:  
! Assign an IP address to the system  
! Log into the system  
! Assign line interface cards within the system  
! Configure line interface parameters  
! Make cross-connects through the system  
! Configure packet services support  
This chapter describes how to perform the initial configuration of the BROADway system. For  
complete details about configuration, packet services, and diagnostics, refer to the online help.

Configuration  
Assigning an IP Address to the BROADway System  
Assigning an IP Address to the BROADway System  
Should you decide to access the BROADway system remotely through a Telnet or web browser  
interface, you must either use the default BROADway IP address, or use the TL1 and PS CLI to  
configure a new IP address for the node.  
Default BROADway IP Address  
All BROADway systems are configured from the factory with a default IP address of 169.254.0.1 and  
a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. This default scheme makes it easy for technicians with a standard DHCP  
client configured to attach to the unit for configuration purposes, however it also means that two  
BROADway systems should not be connected to the same network unless at least one of their IP  
addresses is first changed to avoid conflict.  
NOTE: Users with PCs configured with static IP addresses will have to either change the  
IP address of their PC or of the BROADway system to enable IP communications. For  
To manage the BROADway system using its default IP address, ensure that the PC that will be running  
the web browser GUI interface is directly attached to the BROADway Ethernet port using either a  
straight-through Ethernet patch cable (in which case it should be plugged into the port marked with an  
‘X’) or a cross-over Ethernet cable (in which case it should be plugged into the other Ethernet port).  
Start the BROADway system and then restart the PC.  
Microsoft Windows will default the IP address of a PC to an address in the range 169.254.0.1 to  
169.254.255.255 should no DHCP server be available for certifying a DHCP client. This is known as  
Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) and is intended to make it easy for home network users to  
construct small LAN’s. For our purposes, the connection between the BROADway and the PC is a small  
LAN.  
The following procedures are to be used for different Windows Operating System versions - note that  
these procedures will not upset the IT configuration of the PC; when you reboot the PC on the corporate  
network it will automatically re-acquire a proper IP address from the corporate DHCP server.  
Windows 98 and Windows NT: Click the Start button, then Run, then type winipcfgand click OK.  
From the drop-down list select your network interface card and then click Release, then Renew. The  
NIC will be assigned a new address in the 169.254.X.X range.  
Windows 2000, XP: Reboot the PC and wait approximately 60 seconds for the DHCP client to timeout  
- the DHCP client will then default the IP address to the correct range.  
To verify that the PC has an IP address in the correct range click the Start button, then Run, then type  
commandand click OK. At the prompt, type IPCONFIGand press ENTER. The IP address of your  
LAN interface should begin with 169.254.X.X and the subnet mask should be 255.255.0.0. Type exit  
to exit the command shell. You can verify connectivity with the BROADway system by using the PING  
169.254.0.1command from the Windows command shell prompt.  
You are now ready to configure the BROADway system through the GUI as described in Logging In  
With the Web Browser Interface (GUI) on page 3-9, or by using a Telnet program as described on

Configuration  
Assigning an IP Address to the BROADway System  
Assigning a Different IP Address  
If you plan to use network interface bridging support in your BROADway system, you must create a  
bridge virtual interface (BVI) to create the IP address for management access, as described in Creating  
a Bridge Virtual Interface (BVI) on page 3-5. Otherwise, perform the following procedure.  
To assign a different IP address to the BROADway system:  
1. Connect your PC to the serial port SCP-1 on the BROADway chassis using a null modem cable  
provided with the chassis (note SCP-2 is for future use).  
2. On your PC open a terminal emulation window, for example, HyperTerminal. The terminal  
emulation software should be set to VT100 emulation, 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity and 1  
stop bit. Both hardware and software flow control options are disabled.  
NOTE: If your terminal emulation software has the ability to configure a delay before  
sending information, make sure this is set for 10 ms.  
3. In your terminal emulation window, press ENTER, and you should see the prompt NSP1> or  
NSP2>, depending upon which NSP101 card is currently active.  
4. Log in to the BROADway system using the following TL1 command:  
ACT-USER::NSP:1234::CUSTOMER,BROADWAY;  
NOTE: The initial BROADway system has one default user account that is an  
administrative account. The case-sensitive user name of this default account is  
CUSTOMER, and the case-sensitive password of this default account is BROADWAY.  
You can use this default account to assign an IP address to the BROADway system.  
5. Switch to the Packet Services command line interface by typing psand pressing ENTER. You  
will see the PS#prompt.  
6. Type configureand press ENTER. This enables a configuration mode; your prompt will  
change to PS(config)#.  
7. Type interface ethernet 0and press ENTER.  
8. Type ip address <address> <mask>and press ENTER, where <address>is the IP  
address of the system, and <mask>is the appropriate subnet mask (typically 255.255.255.0 for  
a standard class C subnet).  
9. Type exitand press ENTER (to the PS(config)#prompt).  
10. Type exitand press ENTER (to the PS#prompt).  
11. Type save running-configand press ENTER to save the changes you made.  
12. Type exitand press ENTER to leave the PS prompt and return to the NSP prompt.  
13. Close your terminal emulation window.  
After assigning an IP address to your system, you can use either Ethernet port (ETH-1 and/or ETH-2)  
for network connectivity (as described in Cabling the Ethernet Port on page 2-9).  
If at any point you need to change the initial IP address assigned to the BROADway system, you can do  
so as described in the online help.

Assigning an IP Address to the BROADway System  
Creating a Bridge Virtual Interface (BVI)  
Before you can add an interface to a bridge group, you should first create the bridge virtual interface  
(BVI) which attaches the bridge-group to the IP router. There is a one-to-one mapping between a  
BVI and a bridge-group; each BVI supports a single bridge-group. The BVI has an IP address which  
it utilizes to route its bridged traffic into the IP router and which can also be used to manage the  
BROADway system by performing the manage-intf enablecommand on the BVI.  
You can enable and configure both Network Address Translation (NAT) and the DHCP relay agent  
on a BVI interface.  
To create a BVI, use the following PS commands:  
PS#configure  
PS(NSP-config)#interface bvi <bvi number>  
PS(NSP-config-bvi)#ip address <address> <mask>  
<bvi number>—The number of the bridge virtual interface. You should use the same number  
that was configured for the bridge group.  
<address>—The IP address of the interface.  
<mask>—The network mask for the interface.  
NOTE: You must create a bridge group before creating the BVI.  
For example, to create a bridge group, map the Ethernet interface to the bridge group, associate the  
bridge group with a BVI, assign an IP address to the BVI and enable the BVI IP address as a  
management interface for the system:  
NSP1>ps  
PS#configure  
PS(NSP-config)#bridge addgroup 1  
PS(NSP-config)#interface ethernet 0  
PS(NSP-config-if)#bridge-group 1  
PS(NSP-config-if)#exit  
PS(NSP-config)#interface bvi 1  
PS(NSP-config-bvi)#ip address 192.9.200.1 255.255.255.0  
PS(NSP-config-bvi)#manage-intf enable  
To delete a BVI use the following PS commands:  
PS#configure  
PS(NSP-config)#no interface bvi 1  
To change the state of the BVI to “down”, use the following PS commands:  
PS#configure  
PS(NSP-config)#interface bvi 1  
PS(NSP-config-bvi)#shutdown

Logging In With the Web Browser Interface (GUI)  
You can access the BROADway GUI using these minimum versions of the Microsoft or Netscape web  
browsers:  
! Netscape Communicator 4.6 and above with Java 1.3.0_01 or later  
! Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 and above with Java 1.3.0_01 or later  
When you initially connect to the BROADway system using the web browser interface, the system  
determines which version of Java you are running. If your Java software needs to be upgraded and your  
PC is connected to the Internet, the applet will download an updated version of Java software. If you  
are not connected to the Internet and you are notified that you need to upgrade your Java software, you  
can access and install it from the BROADway software CD. The U.S. English only version of the Java  
software is located on the CD in the /java/english directory, and the international version is located in  
the /java/international directory. Double-click the appropriate installer file (.exe) and follow the  
instructions the installer provides.  
NOTE: The GUI interface is designed to operate as a Java applet that is self-contained  
within the BROADway system and downloaded to the PC-based browser interface when  
accessed. If the management PC is connected remotely to the BROADway system  
through a low-speed WAN connection (for example 64Kbps), then the applet might take  
several minutes to install.  
To connect to the BROADway system  
using the GUI:  
1. On your PC, open a web browser  
window.  
2. Type the IP address or domain  
name of the BROADway system  
(for example, http://  
192.168.5.10, or http://  
169.254.0.1) and press  
ENTER.  
3. To save time in the future, store  
the URL as an entry in the  
Favorites section of your browser.  
NOTE: If you are using Internet Explorer, the Site shown in the login window comes from  
the domain name of the system, and the Realm is always Carrier Access.  
4. Type your user name in the User Name field, initially CUSTOMER.  
5. Type your password in the Password field, initially BROADWAY.  
NOTE: User names and passwords are case sensitive.

6. If the following message appears when the PC is loading the applet, then click the Grant  
Always button. This will enable the PC to download the applet certificate from the BROADway  
system and the message should not appear next time the applet is started.  
7. If the BROADway system to which you logged in is  
part of a stacked configuration, you will have the  
option of viewing just the one BROADway system  
you logged into, or the complete BROADway stack.  
- Select Stack View and click OK to see all the  
BROADway systems connected in a stack to  
this one BROADway system you logged into.  
- Select Shelf View and click OK to see only  
the BROADway system you logged into. The  
system will still remain part of the stack; but  
you will only be able to configure the one system.  
If there are any stacking  
problems, you will see  
messages that alert you to  
any stacking configuration  
problems when the GUI  
starts. You can correct these  
errors by removing the  
stacked systems in error, and  
then adding them back in.

The BROADway applet window will show the name BROADway and then the system node name will  
be shown in parentheses. If you have not yet assigned a system node name or you kept the default  
system node name BROADway, the system IP address will be displayed.  
You must leave the main browser window running in the background while the applet is operational.  
You can, however, minimize the window. Closing the main browser window will log you out and  
disconnect you from the BROADway system. You will have to log back in and restart the applet to  
continue managing the system.  
NOTE: Up to three GUI sessions can be running on any single BROADway system. If a  
fourth client session attempts to connect to the system, the login will not complete and you  
will be presented with an error message.  
To log out, click the Close button on the main browser window. If you accidentally close the applet  
window and the browser window is still open or minimized, you should close this window and restart  
the browser to log back into the BROADway system. Even though use of the Refresh button will appear  
to open up a new GUI window, problems can occur later on during the same session.

Logging In With the Command Line Interface (CLI)  
Logging In With the Command Line Interface (CLI)  
Once you have command line management access to the BROADway system (you are at the NSP1>or  
NSP2>prompt), you can log in.  
To log in to the BROADway system using the command line interface use the following TL1 command:  
ACT-USER::NSP:1234::<username>,<password>;  
<username>—The name of the user account (default is CUSTOMER).  
<password>—The account’s password (default is BROADWAY).  
NOTE: User names and passwords are case sensitive.  
For example:  
ACT-USER::NSP:1234::CUSTOMER,BROADWAY;  
Alternatively, the following form of the ACT-USER command can be used:  
ACT-USER::NSP:1234;  
This version presents the user with a LOGIN:and PASSWORD:prompt, much like a Telnet login  
prompt. At the PASSWORD:prompt, the typed information is not echoed back to the screen for security  
purposes.  
When you first log in to the BROADway system, you will default to the TL1 command line interface.  
When you create and edit user accounts using TL1 commands you can specify the default command line  
Some configuration steps might only be performed with TL1 and some might only be performed with  
the packet services (PS) command line interface. Therefore, when performing configuration work using  
a CLI you might need to switch back and forth between TL1 and PS command shells.  
You can tell which CLI you are currently using by looking at the terminal prompt. TL1 uses the NSP1>  
or NSP2>prompt. Packet services uses the PS#or PS>prompt (depending on your user permission  
level).  
To switch to the PS> prompt from the NSP>prompt, type psand press ENTER. To switch from the  
PS>prompt back to the TL1 NSP>prompt, type exitrepeatedly until the NSP>prompt is displayed.  
To log out from the BROADway system using TL1, use the CANC-USERcommand:  
CANC-USER::NSP:1234;  
If you are accessing the BROADway system from a Telnet client and your Telnet session times out, you  
will need to re-login using the ACT-USERcommand. Your Telnet session times out after approximately  
10 minutes of no activity. If you log out using the CANC-USERcommand, you will need to use the  
ACT-USERcommand to log back in.

Setting Up User Accounts  
Some of the procedures described in this manual require a minimum permission level. All permission  
levels can view information associated with the BROADway unit, but your permission level determines  
whether or not you can edit or change the configuration database for the system. The following table  
lists the permission levels that user accounts can be configured for and which commands that  
permission level can execute (in addition to just viewing current settings).

Managing the BROADway Configuration Database  
Managing the BROADway Configuration Database  
BROADway stores all configuration information in a database located in the non-volatile (flash)  
memory-based file system in both the primary and backup (if installed) NSP101 cards. Changes made  
to the database on the primary (in-service) NSP101 card are automatically copied and synchronized  
with the database on the backup (out-of-service) NSP101 card.  
BROADway’s flash file system has approximately 30 MB available for system and user data, including  
databases and code images. You can have as many database configurations stored as allowed up to the  
limit of the BROADway file system storage space. If you use up all the available flash file system  
memory, then when you attempt to save or copy a database the operation will fail.  
NOTE: If your flash file system begins to run out of space, the ALARM SUM LED on the  
NSP101 will light. To recover from the alarm condition, delete any unneeded files. If you  
ignore the alarm, the BROADway system will degrade in management access  
performance.  
Each of the configuration databases stored in the BROADway system will fall into one of the following  
three categories:  
RUNNING—The “running” database is the one that the BROADway system is currently executing  
and running. Only one database can be “running” at any one time in the BROADway system.  
SAVED—The “saved” database is the one that will come into effect when you reboot the  
BROADway system. Only one database can be a “saved” database.  
OFFLINE—All other databases that were ever named and stored but are not either RUNNING or  
SAVED are off-line databases. You can have as many off-line databases as your BROADway  
system’s memory allows. If you use up all memory then when you attempt to store or copy a new  
database, the operation will fail.  
NOTE: It is important to note that configuration changes made in the course of normal  
operation to the RUNNING database will not be automatically saved unless a command is  
performed to save the current configuration to the SAVED or other offline database. If you  
reboot the BROADway system without saving any configuration changes made to the  
RUNNING configuration then BROADway will revert to the previously SAVED database.  
The BROADway management interface will enable you to:  
! Load and execute a different database than the one currently running  
! Make a backup copy of a database  
! Delete a database  
! Rename a database

NOTE: To change the currently running configuration, you must reboot the BROADway  
system. You cannot move a database directly to RUNNING. You can only move a  
database to SAVED. When you reboot the BROADway system, the database in SAVED  
becomes the RUNNING database.

Managing the BROADway Configuration Database  
To delete an OFFLINE database, use the DLT-DBTL1 command:  
DLT-DB::NSP:1234::<name>;  
<name>—User defined OFFLINE database name.  
Examples:  
Delete the database called offlinename from the active NSP:  
DLT-DB::NSP:1234::offlinename;  
Delete the database called offlinename from NSP-1:  
DLT-DB::NSP-1:1234::offlinename;  
Deletes the database called offlinename from NSP-2:  
DLT-DB::NSP-2:1234::offlinename;  
You cannot delete the database that is either currently stored as RUNNING or SAVED.  
To initialize the database system to its factory default, use the INIT-DBTL1 command:  
INIT-DB::NSP:1234;  
After you initialize the database, reboot the BROADway system using the INIT-SYSTL1 command  
CAUTION! USE THE INIT-DBCOMMAND WITH EXTREME CARE AS IT WILL RESET THE  
SAVED CONFIGURATION DATABASE TO A FACTORY DEFAULT STATE. ENSURE YOU HAVE A  
BACKUP OF ANY PREVIOUS SAVED CONFIGURATION BEFORE YOU EXECUTE THIS COMMAND.  
Exporting the BROADway Database to a TL1 Script  
The BROADway embedded database is designed to offer fast access to each configuration element of  
the BROADway switch. However, it is not stored in a simple human-readable format. To dump the  
contents of the database to a TL1 script format, the following TL1 commands can be used:  
EXEC-SYS::NSP:1234::cfgDumpTL1;  
EXEC-SYS::NSP:1234::cfgDumpTL1verbose;  
The EXEC-SYScommand accesses each element configuration table within the database in turn and  
converts the contents to a series of TL1 commands. The first variant of the command will only print  
information that is changed from the default switch settings. The second variant of the command will  
print the entire database as a series of TL1 commands.  
In this release of the system software, the output is sent to the console from which the command was  
executed, i.e. the serial craft port or a Telnet session. An operator using a terminal emulation program  
such as Hyperstream can capture the output from the switch to a file on the local PC, and replay it back  
to the switch to configure the product.  
It is also possible to capture the output, modify certain script parameters and then play it back to  
replicate a single configuration easily on multiple BROADway switches.

Copying Files Between NSP101 Controllers  
On some occasions, it might be useful to copy files from the working NSP101 controller to the  
protection, or backup, controller (for example, to copy scripts for Node Level APS support). Copying  
files between NSP101 modules is accomplished using the file-syncTL1 command:

Re-Starting the BROADway System Using TL1  
You can restart one or both of the NSP101 control cards in a BROADway system using the INIT-SYS  
TL1 command:  
INIT-SYS::<aid>:1234::{FORCE|ALL};  
<aid>—One of the following:  
NSP-1—Resets the NSP101 in slot NSP-1, regardless of whether or not it is the active NSP101.  
NSP-2—Resets the NSP101 in slot NSP-2, regardless of whether or not it is the active NSP101.  
NSP—Resets the active NSP101.  
NSP-P—Resets the non-active (protection) NSP101.  
FORCE—Forces a reboot of the specified NSP card.  
ALL—Resets both NSP101s.  
CAUTION! USE THE INIT-SYSCOMMANDS WITH EXTREME CARE AS THESE COMMANDS  
WILL POTENTIALLY PERFORM A SERVICE-AFFECTING RESTART OF THE BROADWAY SYSTEM.  
Examples:  
Restart the working NSP (switches BROADway to redundant NSP only if installed):  
INIT-SYS::NSP:1234::FORCE;

Using FTP with the BROADway System  
The BROADway system operates an FTP server for the purpose of quickly uploading and downloading  
files to and from the node. Information such as system software updates, system and alarm logs and the  
node database can be transferred using the FTP protocol.  
BROADway has two disks mounted that can be accessed with FTP, these are /FLASH and /VDISK.  
The former is a silicon disk mounted in non-volatile memory, while the latter is a silicon disk mounted  
temporarily in working RAM. Information stored in /FLASH will be saved over a reboot of the system  
while that in /VDISK will be lost once the BROADway unit is restarted. /FLASH is the default folder  
for an FTP session.  
The following log is an example of an FTP session that logs into a BROADway system, changes folder  
to the System Logs folder on the /FLASH disk and copies the SYSLOG binary file to the local PC.

Upgrading System Software  
FTP can be used to retrieve information that can be useful to Carrier Access in debugging problems that  
have been experienced on the system, or for uploading new system software releases to the BROADway  
system. Remember that all filenames are case sensitive in the FTP protocol.  
Upgrading System Software  
Periodically, Carrier Access releases new versions of the software that operates the BROADway  
system. When you receive the software, you must FTP the system files to the BROADway NSP101  
which implies that you must have an IP address configured for the Ethernet interface of the system (see  
system, you are required to enter a username and password with either Configuration or Administrator  
privileges.  
For specific details on how to upgrade the system software using FTP, refer to the official Release Notes  
for that software release. The following procedure might be superseded by the system Release Notes.  
Upgrading system software tasks can only be performed through the TL1 command line interface.  
To upgrade the system software to release 3.08 from an earlier software release, follow these  
instructions:  
1. Verify the release of software currently running on your BROADway system by executing the  
following TL1 command:  
rtrv-sw-ver::nsp:1234::all;  
Both NSP101 modules should be running the same version of BROADway system code:  
NSP1> rtrv-sw-ver::nsp:1234::all;

2. Copy the new software release to the PC from which you will be running the FTP upload  
session. For this example, we assume the file, bw308.zip, has been copied to the C:\TEMP  
folder.

Windows FTP client. The upload time might be more than several minutes if the IP connection  
to the BROADway node is over a low-speed WAN link:

Upgrading the Boot ROM  
Occasionally, system software releases will be accompanied by a firmware update to the Boot ROM on  
the NSP101 module. The minimum boot ROM revision required for system release 3.08 is version 1.6.  
The current revision number is available on the startup screen during the BROADway boot cycle or  
through the use of the exec-sysTL1 command:  
NSP1> exec-sys::nsp:1234::vers;  
BROADway version: 3.04  
PS  
DATABASE version: 2.1  
BSP Version : 1.60

Upgrading System Software  
1. Once the new system software has been loaded and the BROADway units have rebooted and  
synchronized (see Upgrading System Software on page 3-29), use the exec-sysTL1  
command to update the Boot ROM on the working NSP:  
NSP1> exec-sys::nsp:1234::bootUpdate;  
Starting to program bootrom...done  
value = 0 = 0x0  
2003-04-08 11:06:21  
M 1 COMPLD  
NSP-1,  
2. Next, reboot the working NSP101 using the init-syscommand. If only a single NSP101 is  
present this will reboot the BROADway system, if two are present then the BROADway will  
switch to the protection NSP101 module:  
NSP1> init-sys::nsp:1234::FORCE;  
/* LOCAL SYSTEM REBOOTING */  
2003-04-08 11:08:16  
M 1234 COMPLD  
NSP-1,  
3. Verify that, in a protected system, the backup NSP101 is in-service and synchronized, then  
perform a similar Boot ROM upgrade and reboot on the backup card:  
NSP1> exec-sys::nsp:1234::bootUpdate;  
Starting to program bootrom...done  
value = 0 = 0x0  
2003-04-08 11:06:21

Pin 50 on connectors #1, #2, #3, and #4 is a drain wire connected to chassis ground.  
As the pinouts show, if you are not installing NIP400 cards in NIP-5 through NIP-8, you do not need to  
connect the ports NIP TX2 and NIP RX2. Likewise, if you are not installing NIP400 cards in NIP-1  
through NIP-4, you do not need to connect the ports NIP TX1 and NIP RX1.
