Accessing the ATI
You can communicate with the Asynchronous Terminal Interface (ATI) using one
of the following methods:
 Direct connection through the Terminal port.
 Dialing in through an external modem to the Terminal port.
 Telnet session through the Management port (locally or via an external
modem).
 Telnet session through the In-band Management Channel (IMC).
NOTE:
Only one asynchronous user 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 Terminal Port
Options, Table A-4).
The user interface is blank until activated. Press Return to activate the user
interface. Security can limit ATI access several ways. To setup security or a login
ID, refer to
Security , Chapter 4.
Connecting to the Terminal Port
Verify that the settings of the device that you connect to the Terminal port match
these factory-loaded option default settings:
 Data rate set to 9.6 kbps.
 Character length set to 8.
 Parity set to None.
 Stop Bits set to 1.
To change the Terminal Port settings, refer to Terminal Port Options, Table A-4.
