Before running the verification procedures described in this section, make sure that the boards are installed, configured, and verified. For more information, see the board-specific installation and developer's manual.
To verify the Natural Access installation, follow these steps:
|
Step |
To... |
Run this program... |
|---|---|---|
|
1 |
Display the version information for all services and service managers that are registered during Natural Access initialization. |
|
|
2 |
Start the Natural Access Server (ctdaemon), or verify that it is running. |
|
|
3 |
Verify Natural Access, NCC service, and ADI service functionality. |
ctavers retrieves and displays the version information for all services and service managers so that you can confirm that the correct service versions are available for ctdaemon operation.
To run ctavers, enter the following command on the command line:
ctavers
ctavers lists the versions and build dates of all Natural Access core components.
For more information on ctavers, see Service version confirmation: ctavers.
Start the Natural Access Server (ctdaemon) as a Windows service, a UNIX daemon, or a console application. The Natural Access Server (ctdaemon) must always be running to provide Natural Access functionality.
Following the Natural Access installation, reboot your system. When you reboot the system, the Natural Access Server (ctdaemon) starts automatically as a Windows service. If the service is not running, start it in one of the following ways:
Access a command prompt and enter:
net start ctdaemon
In the Windows Control Panel, double-click on Services and start the NMS CT daemon service.
Access a command prompt and enter:
ctdaemon
This method allows full console interaction with ctdaemon.
Access a command prompt and enter:
ctdaemon -i
For more information on ctdaemon options, refer to Natural Access Server: ctdaemon.
ctatest executes many of the NCC and ADI service functions from a simple command menu. ctatest also enables you to create and manipulate contexts. Connect a telephone to the NMS board being tested to play, record, and hear tones.
ctatest displays information similar to the following:

ok.
Enter one- and two-letter commands to execute Natural Access, ADI service, Voice Message service, and NCC service functions. Some commands prompt for additional information, such as frequencies and amplitudes for tone generators.
