Transaction Language 1 (TL1)
INTRODUCTION
Transaction Language 1 (TL1) is a BELLCORE standard used in the
input and output messages that pass between Operations Systems
(OS) and Network Elements (NE) in telecommunication networks.
It was developed to standardize equipment surveillance and
memory administration, and to test with a common format.
This release of TL1 primarily supports the interactive and
autonomous retrieval of system events as part of a valid TL1
session.
OVERVIEW
TL1 is an ASCII based language that supports both command-
response and autonomous (NE) message generation. Commonly,
TL1 is used over a X.25 packet network but is completely
independent of any physical layer protocols. For the MX2800, TL1
is implemented as a TELNET session or “Raw TCP” session
running over either Ethernet or PPP.
In order to initiate a TL1 session successfully, the unit must be
properly configured for an Ethernet (LAN) or PPP connection. A
valid IP address, gateway address, and a valid subnet mask are
required (see Chapter 3. Configuration - System Management on
page 3-13.) User authentication is also required. An account must
be setup before initiating a TL1 session.
