Local NetView Access
The SmartSwitch 1800 supports a local NetView access function that allows the node
operator to send commands from the node to lines and PUs. This function is only
between the node and lines/PUs—the commands and responses are not transmitted to
NetView.
To display the NetView Access Options Menu, press [H] at the On-Line Node Opera-
tions Menu (or [B], [A], [H] from the Main Menu).

made up of commands you send. The supported commands are described later in this

the desired command(s). If you want to create a batch file of the commands you
send, specify the desired
Input File Name , then specify ON for Write To File . If you
do not want to create a batch file, make sure Write To File is OFF .
●
To repeat the last command you entered, press [F] .
●
To send commands from an existing batch file, specify the desired Output File
Name , then select Read From File . The commands will be executed one at a time,
and each command after the first one will be executed only after you press [F2] .
