Verify TCP/IP Port for SSU2000


With Release 6.0 and later the SSU-2000 supports port number 3083 for TCP/IP connections. Port 2000 (default) is still supported for backwards compatibility, but Symmetricom recommends using port 3083 to avoid any possible conflicts.

The TCP/IP port number for the SSU-2000 must be specified when making a new connection with TimeCraft or when editing an existing connection. If the running port number on the SSU-2000 is unknown, it can be queried via Telnet with ICS commands.

Note: For SSU 2000 Linux Communication Module devices, use port 22 for SSH connections.

 

To Query Port Via Telnet with ICS Command

  1. Click on the Start button.

  2. Click on Run.... The Run window will appear.

  3. Type in cmd and press Enter. The cmd.exe window will appear.

  4. Type in telnet <IP address of SSU-2000> and press Enter. A prompt with the SSU-2000 name will appear with a successful connection.

Example: for an address of 192.168.6.118,

>telnet 192.168.6.118  <Enter>

SSU_2000>

  1. Type in the command tl1P and press Enter. The window will display the port setting and the current running port, as shown below.

See the procedure To Change Port via Telnet With ICS Commands below.

Note: If the port setting is different than the current running port, the port setting will not be implemented until the COMM module in the SSU-2000 has been restarted.

 

 

To Change Port With ICS Commands

  1. To change the port setting to 3083, type in the command "tl1p <port>". The communication module must be restarted to make the new port setting the running port.

  2. To restart the COMM module and implement the new port setting, type in "restart <AID>" using the AID of the COMM module.

Example: for a port number of "3083" and COMM module with an AID of "S1A4",

SSU_2000>tl1p 3083  <Enter>

SSU_2000>restart s1a4
