GEC PSE Enhancements results

Pos Votes      Question

 1   87  P1   Easy method of changing configuration details (eg. DTE/DCE,
              redistribution of LCN's between logical groups) without having
              to ask GEC where to patch the system.
     
 2   79  N23  Monitor comand, switchable per link, to list calls as set up and
              cleared (called, calling addresses, direction).
     
 3   78  N12  STATUS - 'LINK DOWN' type messages to appear on same line as
              status report and replaced by a more specific cause of link
              failure (eg. timeout, carrier lost).
     
 3   78  N14  Monitor calls through switch - two types:
                                  
                static   -  a snapshot
               
                dynamic  -  listing calls as set up and cleared until
                            monitor is turned off
     
 5   75  P3   Better Console messages.
     
 5   75  E15  Ability to use Name Registration Scheme Names.
     
 7   74  N1   Ability to repair individual PCCs on-line, ie. without IPL.
     
 8   73  P6   Provide more information when an error causes a status change,
              eg. PCC ERROR does not seem to be a lot of use.
     
 9   72  N17  Improved error messages eg. 'Disc Unavailable' rather than
              'error @39', 'Board Unavailable' rather than 'ACn exit at...'
     
10   71  N4   Remote access to CPSE management facility via X29 calls.
     
11   69  N19  TOTALS - no automatic clearing of totals, so that totals can be
              accumulated but still examined.  Option of clearing still provided
              by 'TOTALS C'.
     
12   67  N18  HISTORY - switchable monitoring of specific lines for full Level
              2 and/or Level 3 information, with option of sending to a file
              with a time/date stamp.
     
13   65  E11  Provision of HELP facility, eg. directory.
     
14   63  P12  Call redirection (ref DD1617/2 1-8)
     
              The current facility causes the redirection of the current call to
              a previously nominated alternative destination in the event of the
              original destination DTE being out of order.
     
              Call redirection should be done on an internal address list
              using all 14 digits.
     
14   63  N25  STATUS - use of 'C' to indicate link CLOSEd rather than just 'N'
              for link down, where appropriate.
