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 MX2810, TL1
is implemented as a TELNET session running over Ethernet or over
an X.25 packet network.
The MX2810 supports an RS-232 compatible serial interface to be
used in conjunction with the X.25 network. The unit includes PAD
functions onboard so an external PAD is not required for operation
with the X.25 network (an external PAD may be necessary when the
unit is being used with a test network with a PC.) Physical access
uses a 25-pin female DB-25 connector (Network Management) on
the rear of the MX2810. The X.25 connector pin assignments are
detailed in Table 1. This port operates as a DTE and is configured
for the following settings:
