User Interface Access

You can communicate with the Hotwire 7984 Standalone Termination Unit with an
asynchronous terminal interface (ATI) using one of the following methods:

H

Direct connection through the COM port of the standalone unit or through the
serial port of the DSLAM MCC.

H

Telnet session through the Embedded Operations Channel (EOC).

NOTE:

Only one terminal interface session can be active at a time, and another
user’s session cannot be forced to end. To automatically log out a user due to
inactivity, enable the Inactivity Timeout option (see Table A-5,
