Displaying and Configuring Nodes

Selecting a Device

Select the device (on both the rear or front view) to display the Device Configuration dialog by doing one of the following:

To display the configuration parameters for a particular device category, select the name of the category from the Category pop-up menu at the top of the dialog. The categories of device configuration are:

These dialogs are describes in the sections that follow.

Node Dialog

Use the Node dialog to configure node properties. (See Figure 2-1.)


Figure 2-1: Node Dialog


The Node dialog parameters are described in Table 2-1.


Table 2-1: Node Dialog Parameters
Parameter Description

Node Name

Specifies the name of the node and is unique among all the nodes in the network. Whenever the name of the node is changed, AutoRoute has to propagate the information to the other nodes in the network. It also specifies the name of a PAR Feeder node.

  • Node names must be unique within the network.

  • Node names must be 1-8 characters in length.

  • Node names must start with a letter.

  • Node names can include "_" or "."

  • Node names are case sensitive.

Shelf Date

Sets the date for the shelf. The syntax is mm/dd/yyyy.

Shelf Time

Sets the date for the shelf. The syntax is mm/dd/yyyy.

Shelf Time Zone

Defines standard time for the shelf. Can be

  • gmt (Greenwich mean time)

  • est (Eastern standard time)

  • cst (Central standard time)

  • mst (Mountain standard time)

  • pst (Pacific standard time)

To define a standard time not defined in here, use gmt and set the offset from the gmt in the Shelf Time Zone Offset parameter.

Shelf Time Zone Offset (Hours):

Contains the offset from greenwich mean time in hours. If configuring for standard time in the Shelf Time Zone parameter, set this object to 0. If configuring for nonstandard times, use this object as an offset from the GMT.

Shelf Back Plane Type

Type of back plane, generally 336 Mbps.

Shelf Back Plane SerialNo

Unique value for each shelf, entered in nvram by manufacturing. The serial number is on the nonvolatile RAM on the backplane.

Shelf Integrated Alarm

Status of the shelf's integrated alarm. Can be

  • clear

  • major

  • minor

To modify an entry in the Node dialog:

Step 1 Select the table column entry that you want to modify.

Step 2 Click in the entry to display possible values.

Step 3 Select the appropriate value.

Step 4 Click Modify.

To make sure the information has been changed, reselect the Node dialog.

Note Commands related to this dialog are cnfname, cnfdate, cnftime, cnftmzn, dspshelfalm.
