SUBJECT: Remote Provisioning Procedures for SLC Series 5 AUTHOR: David C. Vanness (414-678-4844 DATE: October 11, 1990 REVISED DATE: COVER WITH: All personnel COVER BY: Immediately FILE: 7.36 REVISION #: REPLACE: General ~~~~~~~ AT&T has developed a software product called Centralized Operations and Provisioning (COP) that provides remote, dial-up access, to SLC Series 5 feature package C Digital Loop Carrier systems. Currently, provisioning of a SLC-5 system requires Craft dispatch. With COP, Special Services can remotely provision Special Service circuits without craft dispatch. An additional feature of COP is to provide the ability to remotely inventory equipped SLC-5 systems. COP Description ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ COP is a AT&T software program that runs on a IBM compatible PC system. The PC that will be used in WBI is the AT&T 6386 Shared PC computer. The AT&T 6386 PC will access SLC-5 channel banks by means of a dial-up data circuit to a dedicated port on the Extended Test Controller (XTC) at the SLC-5 central office (Figure1). COP requires the following equipment: 1. COP software 2. Dial-up data set to each SLC-5 site 3. RS232 to RS232 converter 4. XTC Digital Line Unit PIE 5. XCU Plug-in PIE Shared PC equipment is available at the Milwaukee, Madison, Appleton Special Services Center (SSC).

Must be feature package "C" or later. (see Equipped Offices) - Provides centralized Status Summary Report which provides a current audit of the provisioning of each channel, channel type, presence or absence of channel units in each slot, and the Redline (Special Services Protection) status of each channel for both the RT and the COT ends. - Matches CIU (Craft Interface Unit). It should be noted that COP itself is not a replacement for the CIU. If SARTS test access is available and SLC-5 system has COP then the need for a CIU is greatly reduced. Comparison of COP and the CIU: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A. The CIU interfaces directly to a dual bank in the host CO. COP can be used in a dial-up mode from a work center not co-located with the CO and interfaces via an XDLU port of the XTC B. The CIU test access capabilities include digital and metallic access. COP capabilities do not support test access and system turn up. COP only supports activities associated with the provisioning of channel units and channel bank memory. SARTS test access may be availible to the COT and RT. C. COP can produce the Status Summary Report, which the CIU cannot. D. SARTS, CIU and COP utilize the SLC-5 XTC. Users can only have one access to the XTC at one time.
