User interface types

There are several different user interfaces which are used depending on the situation:

Man Machine Interface (MMI) Service terminal Element Manager Web Manager

In this module, these user interfaces will be explained in more detailRemember, for most daily activities, NetAct is used to perform the required actions. NetAct can perform all of the actions available through the NEMU/OMS Application Launcher.

Interface provided by the OMU

Uses Man Machine Language(MML)

Command history can beoutput with ZIGO

Before you can enter MML commands, you have to open an MML session. You canopen an MML session only if you have a user identity.Note that when opening an MML session via the EM MMI Window, the system asks foryour username and password when opening the Element Manager but does not ask youto enter them in the beginning of the MML

Open an MML sessiona) Enter your user ID when the system asks you to (ENTER USERNAME

Command

Command part of MML commandsThe command part usually consists of three letters. For example, the command part of a command that displays one or several MML command logs, consists of the lettersIGO.

The first letter of a command identifies the command class to which the command belongs. For example, the IGO command belongs to the command class I, which comprisesall the command groups related to the I/O system administration.

IThe command class of IGO

The first two letters of a command identify the command group to which the commandbelongs. For example, the IGO command belongs to the IG command group, whichcomprises all the commands for handling an MML command log.

IGThe command group of IGO

Repeat an MML command

a) Press the 'up' arrow to search for a commandSearch the command you wish to repeat by pressing the 'up' arrow.

b) Execute the commandExecute the command by pressing ENTER when the command is displayed after the prompt.

Cancel an MML commandSelect one of the following alternatives:

Interrupt MML command executionWhen the semicolon has not been given, but all the command parameters havebeen typed, type the letter 'N'. Thus the command will not be executed, and thecommand entering procedure returns to the beginning of the command group inquestion.

Terminate command executionTo terminate command execution, press CTRL-Y.

The line editor lets you search and edit the commands you have entered during thecurrent MML session, and edit the command you are typing. If you have entered theexact same command more than once, you can only handle the last instance of thatcommand.

The editor is operated from the keyboard of the MML terminal. You can use a variety ofkeys and key combinations to search and edit MML commands and characters. You donot have to start the editor: it is available when you are typing MML commands

SPACE The space has no syntactic significance. It is often used in the examples to clarify the structure, but it can be omitted when giving a command.

COMMA The comma is used to separate parameters from one another when typing them in to give the default value to position-defined parameters. Writing commas one after another corresponds to giving the default value to the parameter between the commas. If the number of commas given exceeds the number of parameters, the syntax analyzer gives an error message. to give the default value to name-defined parameters. Typing a comma after an 'equals' sign (=) gives the named parameter its default value.

COLON The colon is used after a command code, before typing the parameters. as a delimiter of parameter blocks.

SEMI-COLON The semi-colon is used to end a command. The semi-colon can be given if all the command parameters not yet given have the default value. the command has no parameters.

Usage of the ampersand to group combination parameter argumentsWhen more than one argument of a combination parameter needs to be given, characters &, &- and &&- are used. Below are explanations of these characters:

& Groups two combination parameter arguments within the same parametervalue.

&-Groups combination parameter arguments when a group of parameters differs only in their last information unit. The first argument is completely specified, whereas the others are represented only by their last information units.

&&-Groups arguments when a group of arguments differs only in their last information unit and constitutes a consecutive sequence. The arguments are indicated by writing the lower and upper information units. The last information unit is incremented by one.


Special Character : Ampersand (&)

Groups arguments when a group of arguments differs only in theirlast information unit and constitutes a consecutive sequence

&&, &&-

Groups combination parameter arguments when a group of parameters differs only in their last information unit

&-

Groups two combination parameter arguments&
