How to Turn Interfaces or Channels On and Off
How to Turn Interfaces or Channels On and Off
ECM allows you to turn on or off the interfaces on a device. The procedures in
this section, show you how to create a configuration that turns on interface 1
and turns off interfaces 2 and 3 on an EMME.
1. In SpectroGRAPH, select an EMME icon and invoke ECM from it.
2. Manually create a configuration called Interface1_ON. The completed
configuration should contain the following attributes and values:
Attribute Value
If_Admin_Status.1 1
If_Admin_Status.2 2
If_Admin_Status.3 2
For this particular attribute, a value of 1 means ON, a value of 2 means
OFF. (If you want to turn other interfaces on or off, just change the value
of the interface and name the configuration appropriately.)
3. In the ECM Main window, select the configuration and click on Load.
ECM loads the configuration to the EMME. If you keep the Device View open,
you can see the appropriate interfaces turn green (on) or blue (off) when you
download the configuration.
How to Turn Cisco Router Protocols On and Off
Instead of telneting to a Cisco router and manually entering host
configuration commands, you can use ECM to configure the router. If you want
to schedule a Cisco router to run different protocols at different times of the
day, enter actual Cisco commands, such as no appletalk routing and novell
routing, in the Cisco host configuration and then use the Scheduler to load
this configuration to the router at the desired times.
To turn off the Appletalk protocol and turn on Novell routing in a Cisco router:
1. Select a Cisco router icon in SpectroGRAPH and invoke ECM from it.
2. Create a configuration called appleOFFnovON. This configuration
doesn’t need to include any attributes, only the Cisco host configuration.
3. In the Edit Host Configuration window, edit the host configuration by
inserting the command no appletalk routing and novell routing.
4. In the ECM Main window, select the configuration appleOFFnovON,
click on the Scheduler button, and then schedule the load for a specific
time.
ECM loads the configuration to the Cisco router at the scheduled time(s)
