Bring the System Online
Administration Screens and Commands
The system is administered using screens displayed on the PC. The screens are used to add, change, display, list data, and to remove system and telephone features. To access a screen, enter a valid system command in response to the command: prompt.
System commands are standard words and phrases instructing the system to perform a specific function. The commands are arranged in a hierarchy of keywords; that is, enter one command to go to a different level. The commands contain three parts: ACTION, OBJECT, and QUALIFIER.
- ACTION is the first part of the command. When command: appears on the screen. The ACTION specifies the operation desired. Examples include add, duplicate, change, remove, display, list, and save.
- OBJECT is the second part of the command and specifies the particular object to be administered. Typical entries are hunt-group, coverage path, and station.
- QUALIFIER is the last part of the command. It is one or more words or digits used to further identify or complete the OBJECT. For example, hunt group 15 or station 3600, where 15 and 3600 are qualifiers.
An example of the command line required to add a station with extension number 1234 is add station 1234. In this example, add is the ACTION, station is the OBJECT, and 1234 is the QUALIFIER. In the command line, spaces are required between the ACTION, OBJECT, and QUALIFIER.
To save time, enter enough letters for each part of the command to make it unique. For example, if you want to enter the command change system-parameters country-options, typing cha sys coun is sufficient.
