TL1(二)-GR833

 INPUT FORMAT
All parameters in this command are either positional or name-defined.

verb-modifier[-modifier]:[<tid>]:<aid>:<ctag>[:[general block][:first parameter block]...[:last parameter block]];

EXPLANATION OF COMMAND PARAMETERS

<tid> is the Target Identifier (TID) that identifies the target NE to which a command
is directed. The value of <tid> is comprised of a maximum of 20 ASCII characters
limited to letters, digits, and hyphens. The value of <tid> may be null when the OS
directly interfaces with the target NE. The recommended value for the <tid>, when
it is used, is the target’s CLLI code.

<aid> represents the AID that identifies an entity (or group thereof) in the NE to
which the command pertains. Addressing rules are discussed in Section 2.2. The
value of <aid> may be null where explicitly specified.

<ctag> is the Correlation Tag (CTAG) used to correlate input and response
messages. The value of <ctag> must either be a TL1 identifier or a non-zero decimal
number, consisting of no more than 6 ASCII characters. It is assigned by the OS and
must be included in NE input and response messages where specified.

 

RESPONSE FORMAT
ACKNOWLEDGMENT
If a normal response or an error response cannot be sent within 2 seconds of receipt
of an input command, an appropriate acknowledgment from the following list
should be sent:
IP[^<ctag>] <cr> <lf> <
NA[^<ctag>] <cr> <lf> <
PF[^<ctag>] <cr> <lf> <
RL[^<ctag>] <cr> <lf> <

 

However, if either NA or RL is sent, no normal response or error response is
expected. For a more complete discussion of acknowledgment outputs, see GR-831-
CORE.
NORMAL RESPONSE
<cr> <lf> <lf>
^^^<rsphdr> <cr> <lf>
M^^<ctag>^COMPLD <cr> <lf>
<rspblk> * ;
The <rspblk> is OPTIONAL and will be present only if the response has parameters
to send back. Responses that can have <rspblk> either present or not will be
explained in the corresponding response section for the message.
Also, <rsphdr> corresponds to the message header (source identifier, date, time),
which is discussed in Section 4.3.7, and the response line:
M^^<ctag>^COMPLD <cr> <lf>
corresponds to the response identification (see GR-831-CORE) where the
character "M" signifies that the message is a response to an input command
message. A different response identification is used for Automatic messages and is
discussed in Section 5.
ERROR RESPONSE
<cr> <lf> <lf>
^^^<rsphdr> <cr> <lf>
M^^<ctag>^DENY <cr> <lf>
^^^<errcde> <cr> <lf>
(^^^"<error description>" <cr> <lf>) *
(^^^/*error text*/ <cr> <lf>) * ;
EXPLANATION OF RESPONSE PARAMETERS
The character M as the first character in the second line of the response signifies
that this is the response to an input message.
<rsphdr> is defined in Section 4.3.7.
<ctag> is defined previously.
<errcde> is the error code. A set of applicable error codes with their interpretations
are listed in Appendix B.
