BCM450 Troubleshooting Guide
For either method, your user account must be assigned the System-CLI privilege before you can
access the CLI.
Accessing the CLI through a serial connection
1 Connect a serial cable with a 9-pin female connector from the serial port on a PC to the serial
port on the BCM450.
2 Ensure that you use the following settings:
• bits per second: 115200
• data bits: 8
•parity: N
• stop bits: 1
• no flow control
3 Use a terminal emulation program, such as Hyperterminal or Nortel CLI Manager, to establish
a connection to the BCM450.
4 Log into the BCM450 by entering your username and password. Your user account must be
assigned the System-CLI privilege in order to access the CLI.
Accessing the CLI through the OAM port
1 Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on a PC to the OAM Ethernet port on the
BCM450.
2 Set the IP address of the PC to 10.10.11.2.
3 Use putty to establish an SSH connection to the default IP address of the OAM port:
10.10.11.1.
4 Log into the BCM450 by entering your username and password. Your user account must be
assigned the System-CLI privilege in order to access the CLI.
Using the Configuration CLI
The Configuration CLI dislays when the system is in Main OS mode. The options available on the
Configuration CLI are:
• 0—Exit. The system exits the CLI to the login prompt.
• 1—Reboot. The system reboots to the Main OS.
Caution: The CLI is intended for use by experienced technicians, or as directed
by Nortel Technical Support. Improper use of the CLI may result in data loss.
