Logging In To and Logging Out Of the Admin Portal

990-1040-001
Overview

The Taqua 7000 (T7000TM) is a packet voice switch based on a switch-on-a-card
design. Each card provides dedicated resources for call processing, service logic,
switch fabric, media processing, and signaling. By eliminating common equipment,
the switch greatly improves service margins and gives carriers pinpoint control over
network costs.
You can deploy a fully functional switch with a single card and add expansion cards
with market growth. The switch can be configured with POTS, DS1, DS3, and IP
interface cards.
A T7000 can be managed either with the Admin Portal (AP) or the Command Line
Interface (CLI). Both the AP and the CLI allow you to perform Operations,
Administration, Maintenance, and Provisioning (OAM&P) tasks on the switch.
The CLI is a traditional, console-based craft interface, and is documented in the
T7000 Command Line Interface Manual.
The AP is a Web-based management system that resides on an AP Server. It
functions as the middleware between workstations and switches, and as the
middleware between workstations and the Billing Mediation Server, TaquaMail, and
the IseHouse server. The AP can interface with devices that support the Simple
Object Access Protocol (SOAP) or the Representational State Transfer (REST)
interface.
This guide explains the AP Client interface. Consult the T7000 Provisioning Guide
for detailed provisioning procedures, and the T7000 Maintenance and
Troubleshooting Guide for operations procedures.

Logging In

This section describes how to start and end an Admin Portal session.
Logging In
Tip
See your system
administrator if you
need to change
your User ID or
Password.
Your system administrator will assign your User ID and a Password, and provide
you with the Admin Portal (AP) clients IP address.
You access the AP using an internet or company intranet connection, and a web
browser. For the best experience, Taqua recommends using a recent version of
either Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome. However, the Admin Portal works with
recent versions of any modern browser, such as Apple Safari, Opera, or Microsoft
Internet Explorer.
Tip
If you run into any
problems using the
AP Client, before
contacting Taqua
TAC, make sure that
you have enabled
Javascript, cleared
the browser's
cache, and
disabled all browser
extensions and
plug-ins. See the
help for your
browser for details.
The AP Client looks best when run in full-screen mode, with a screen resolution of
12801024 pixels.

990-1040-001
Overview
The AP Client is written using industry standard protocols, including HTML and
Javascript. The interface looks and operates consistently regardless of the browser
used.
Type the AP Clients IP address in your browsers address bar to navigate to the
Login page. Type your User ID and Password in the appropriate fields, and then
click Login.
The following screenshot shows the Admin Portal Client running on a popular web
browser:
Admin Portal Login Page

If you make a mistake typing either your User ID or your Password, when you click
the Login button, the AP Client clears both fields, but otherwise takes no action.

The Center Pane
Adding and Removing Fields

Tip
Adding or removing
a field affects a view
for all users. Conversely, other users
can also add or
remove fields, which
will affect your view.
For a way to save
this view so that it is
tied to your log in
ID, see Adding a
Preset on page 63.
The second line of the Center pane contains the names of the fields in the
database. The default view of any database is always the database key, which is
also the name of the database.
However, you can select other fields to display besides the key.
In the next screenshot, the user has selected AP Configuration Menu Category, the
UserManager Menu Folder, and the Users Menu Link.
To display any or all of the other database fields, right-click anywhere on the blue
bar that contains the database name:
A menu appears.
42
The Home View

990-1040-001
From the menu, click Add/Remove Columns:
The Choose Columns dialog box appears. This dialog box lists the additional
database fields that can be displayed in the Center pane:
The check boxes indicate the current display status. In the previous screenshot,
none of the other fields of the Users database have been selected.

990-1040-001
The Home View
43
The Center Pane
In the next screenshot, the user has selected the enabled field from the Choose
Columns dialog box. Once the OK button is clicked, that field will also be displayed
in the Center pane, along with the database key:
The AP Client displays the Users database with the fields selected in the Choose
Columns dialog box. In addition, the AP Client remembers these settings and
applies them each time the Users Menu Folder is selected.
44
The Home View

990-1040-001
In the next screenshot, all of the database fields of the Users database have been
selected:
However, something is wrong with this window. Although all of the database fields
have been selected, not all of the fields are displayed.
Use any of the following methods to reveal the hidden fields in the Center pane:
resize the AP Client window to make it wider
use the Center panes horizontal scroll bar (see the previous screenshot)
expand the Center pane (see Expanding the Center Pane on page 59)

990-1040-001

The Center Pane
Distinguishing Duplicate Field Names

If you add fields from similar objects, you will sometimes find that the AP displays
duplicate field names.
For example, in the screenshot below the user has navigated to the Provisioning
Menu Category, the GR303 Menu Folder, the Interface Group Menu Link, and

Expanding the Center Pane

Tip
Expanding or hiding the Center pane
affects a view for all
users. Conversely,
other users can also
expand or hide the
Center pane, which
will affect your view.
The splitter control expands and shrinks the Center pane. The Center pane
expands and shrinks at the expense of the Right pane, so when the Center pane
is fully expanded, the Right pane is hidden. The splitter displays as three black
blocks near the Center pane scroll bar. Hover the mouse on the splitter to display
a bi-directional white arrow that indicates you can size by moving left or right. Click
the splitter and a blue guide line guides positioning as you size the panes. You can
double-click the splitter to return to the default sizing of the screen.
For a way to save

this view so that it is
tied to your log in
ID, see Adding a
Preset on page 63.
The splitter and guide line display on the following screen:
Tip
Not every view has
a Right pane. However, the AP Client
always displays the
splitter. When a
view does not have
a Right pane, the
splitter does not
respond to mouse
clicks.
With the Center pane scaled down and the Right pane displayed, you can click the
splitter to open the Center pane to the full default size. If you drag the splitter right
to show as many database fields in the Center pane as possible, you can hide the
Right pane. With the Right pane hidden, can click the splitter to return the Center
pane to its default size and redisplay the Right pane.

The following screen shows the AP Client with the Center pane expanded, and the
Right pane closed. Note that the splitter is still visible at the extreme right of the
window:
Even with the Center pane open to the maximum, the AP Client window may still
be a bit too narrow to display all of the database fields that were selected
If the Center pane is not wide enough to display all of the database fields, the
easiest way to fix this problem is to simply make the AP Client Window wider. As
the AP Client becomes wider or narrower, the width of the Menu pane and Right
pane remain constant, but the width of the Center pane shrinks and expands.
There are times, however, when this will be either inconvenient or impossible. See
the next section for another way to display more data in the Center pane.

Resizing Columns
Resizing Columns
You can change the size of any column.
Column size is stored with your login profile. When you resize a column, you are
the only user who is affected by the change.
Tip
The AP Client can
automatically resize
a column: when the
pointer is a
,
double-click, and
the column width
will shrink (or
expand) to the width
of the narrowest (or
widest) value in the
database field.
When the pointer is between two database field names, it becomes a white bidirectional arrow. Left-click and drag the pointer to the left or to the right to resize
the column.
In other words, if the

column is wider
than the width of the
widest entry, the AP
client shrinks the
column.
If the column is narrower than then
width of the widest
entry, the AP Client
expands the
column.
However, if the column is just the right
size, nothing happens when you
double-click,
because nothing
needs to be done.

Using the Filter Controls

Tip
Use Custom Filters
for more complex filtering. See Using
Custom Filters on
page 84.
The AP includes controls to help you filter the information displayed.You can use
the Filter controls to reduce the number of records the Admin Portal displays. Use
the Filter box to perform simple to moderate filtering operations on one or more
fields. The Auto Filter button lets you enable or disable automatic filtering. The
Custom Filter button lets you create and edit filters that help you find details of
interest to you. When you use a custom filter, the filter name displays in the Filter
Selector.
See:
Selecting Records Using the Filter Box on page 71

Selecting Records Using the Filter Box

Red squares indicates the Filter box, the Auto Filter button, the Custom Filter
button and the Filter Selector.
When the Filter box is blank, the AP Client displays all of the records in the
database.
When you type in the Filter box, the AP Client displays only the records in the
database that contain that text. If you enable Automatic Filtering by pressing the
Auto Filter button, the Admin Portal queries the T7000 database as you type each
character. If Auto Filter is disabled, you must press Enter to start the database
query for text you typed.

Finding Records with a Simple Filter (Manual Filtering)
Tip
If the AP Client

your filter text, press
RETURN.
If necessary, click the Auto Filter button to disable Automatic filtering (enable
Manual filtering). With Manual filtering, the AP performs a simple query to display
all records with keys that are an exact match to the typed filter text after you press
Enter.
Filter boxes are not case-sensitive, so typing s and typing S will produce the
same result. The characters you type in a Filter box are treated as an exact match;
to search for the characters of a string in any position (at the beginning, middle or
end of the key), you must use the % wildcard (percent sign).
On the following screen, a filter of %a% has been typed in the Filter box to find
a in a key name wit h any number of characters before and after the a. The
Admin Portal displays every record in the database that contains an a somewhere
in the database key.

Selecting Records With a Negative Filter

A filter that starts with an exclamation point (!) is a negative filter.
When the Filter box contains a negative filter, the Admin Portal displays only the
records in the database that do not contain the filter text.
The next screenshot shows the results after the user turns the filter in the previous
example into a negative filter.
This filter displays only the keys in the database that do not contain the string an.

Selecting Records With Comparison Filters

A filter that starts with a greater than (>) or a less than (<) character is a
comparison filter:
When the Filter box contains a greater than comparison filter, the Admin Portal
returns all records greater than or equal to the filter
When the Filter box contains a less than comparison filter, the Admin Portal returns
all records less than the filter
The following examples use a very small Subscriber database:
The following screenshot shows the result of filtering the Subscriber key with a
comparison filter of <456. This filter returns all of the records in the database
whose key is less than 456:

Finding Records Using Regular Expressions
Tip
This section is for
advanced users.
Although quite powerful, learning the
syntax for Regular
Expressions (regex)
can be a daunting
task. To learn more,
search the Internet
for regex primers.
For advanced users: if a filter does not start with a !, <, or >, the Admin Portal
treats it as a POSIX Regular Expression.
In the following screenshot, the simple filter of 123 finds all Subscribers in the
database with the string 123 anywhere in the key:
NOTE: A Subscriber database could contain thousands of records, but the examples in
this document use test databases.

990-1040-001
The Home View
77
The Center Pane
The next example assumes you want to search for records that contain the string
123 at the start of the key.
The regex syntax for this type of search is ^123.+$ which means:
^ look at the beginning of the string, followed by
123 123, followed by

.+ any single character one or more times, followed by
$ the end of the string
In the following screenshot, the regex filter finds all Subscribers in the database
with the string 123 at the beginning of the key:
78
The Home View

990-1040-001
The next example assumes you want to search for records that contain the string
123 in the middle of the key. The regex syntax for this type of search is ^.123.+$
which means:

123 123, followed by
with the string 123 in the middle of the key:

The Center Pane
The final example assumes you want to limit the search to only records that contain
the string 123 at the end of the key. The regex syntax for this type of search is
^.+123$ which means:

with the string 123 at the end of the key:

Detail Record database, disable
Automatic Filtering.
When Auto Filtering is disabled, the Admin Portal does not query the database until
you press the ENTER key.

new condition, or both conditions
repeat the steps to select an Attribute, Test, and Value(s)

be sure to click Add Condition, or the Admin Portal will not save your
new condition
If your custom filter is now complete, click Save. Otherwise, repeat the previous set
of steps to add an additional condition. You can add as many conditions to a
custom filter as you wish.
NOTE: If your custom filter contains both AND and OR conditions, the filter may not return
the result you expected. See Applying Multiple Conditions on page 89 and
Grouping Multiple Conditions on page 91.
88
The Home View

990-1040-001
Applying Multiple Conditions Confusion can arise when your custom filter has
have three or more conditions linked with a mix of AND and OR operators.
To illustrate, first consider the following set of records:
key
FirstName
PIN
9724800000
Alice
0000
9724800001
Bob
0623
9724800002
Charles
1234
6928311000
Diane
0000
6938311001
Edward
2003
6928311002
Fran
1234
Next, assume that the user has set up the following custom filter with the intent of
finding all of the records in the database whose key contains 972480 and whose
PIN is either 0000 or 1234:
Operator
Attribute
Test
Value 1
key
contains
972480
AND
PIN
equals
0000
OR
PIN
equals
1234
The user set up the filter expecting it to select Alice and Charles. But when the
custom filter is applied, the filter selects Alice, Charles, and Fran.
What went wrong?

The AND operator has a higher precedence than the OR operator. Higher
precedence means that Admin Portal processes the conditions connected by an
AND before it processes the conditions connected by an OR.
So when the custom filter contains a set of conditions like this:
key contains 972480 AND pin equals 0000 OR pin equals 1234

990-1040-001
The Home View
89
The Center Pane
the Admin Portal processes the conditions like this:

(key contains 972480 AND pin equals 0000) OR (pin equals 1234)
not this:
(key contains 972480) AND (pin equals 0000 OR pin equals 1234)
In the example, the condition key contains 972480 selects Alice, Bob, and
Charles, and the condition PIN equals 0000 selects Alice and Diane.
The AND operator returns the record(s) satisfying both conditions. In this case, the
only record satisfying both conditions is Alice.
The condition PIN equals 1234 selects Charles and Fran.
The OR operator returns all of the records satisfying either condition. In this case
it added Charles and Fran to result of the previous condition (Alice).
You can override the default operator precedence to alter the order in which the
Admin Portal applies the conditions in the custom filter. SeeGrouping Multiple
Conditions on page 91.
90
The Home View

990-1040-001
Grouping Multiple Conditions Applying Multiple Conditions on page 89

illustrates the confusion that can arise when a set of conditions are linked with AND
and OR operators.
The following screenshot shows the Custom Filters dialog after configuring the
custom filter for that example:
Since the AND operator has a higher precedence than the OR operator, the Admin
Portal applies these conditions as follows:
(key contains 972480 AND pin equals 0000) OR (pin equals 1234)
However, the intent of the custom filter was to apply the conditions in this order:
(key contains 972480) AND (pin equals 0000 OR pin equals 1234)
You can alter the order in which the Admin Portal applies the conditions by editing
the text in the Expression box.
As shown in the previous screenshot, the Expression box contains:
A AND B OR C
The labels in the Condition column correspond to the conditions applied in the
Custom Filter. In this case:
Condition A corresponds to the condition key contains 972480
Condition B corresponds to the condition pin equals 0000

Condition C corresponds to the condition pin equals 1234

Database Synchronization
Normally, the switch pushes database updates to the AP. Occasionally, however,
the version of a database on the switch and the version of the same database on
the AP Server do not match. This can happen for any number of reasons, such as
network congestion, or perhaps because a large provisioning script ran on the
switch.
When the AP detects that its version of a database does not match, it displays a
Database Synchronization information message to inform you that it is
synchronizing databases.
In the following screenshot, the AP has detected that its version of the Subscribers
database no longer matches the version on the switch, and has initiated the
synchronization process:

Database Synchronization
In the next screenshot, the AP has started reading the new Subscriber records from
the switchs Subscriber database:
These could be entirely new Subscribers, deleted Subscribers, or simply changes

to existing Subscribers. In every case, the AP Subscriber database no longer
matches the switchs version.
Tip
Each dot represents
100 records. The
AP Client always
displays at least one
dot, even if less
than 100 records
require
synchronization.
The update process can take some time, so the AP Client displays a series of dots
(circled in red) to indicate progress, as the next screenshot shows:

Displaying and Modifying a Collection

A database record may contain one or more Collections.
A Collection is a group of one or more items. The items in a Collection may be
simple data types or they may be objects.
For example:
a T7000 OfficeParms objects countryCodes Collection is a set of
numbers. Each number represents a country code.
a T7000 NANPRoutingList objects routes Collection is a set of route list

objects. Each route list object in turn may be a Trunk Group route list, a
Digit route list, a Facility route list, or a Service route list.
When you view a database record that contains one or more Collections, the Admin
Portal displays a plus
in front of the name of the database record.
For example, the following screenshot shows the officeParms database. The
Admin Portal displays a plus
in front of the name of the TaquaTx database

attribute definition is UNIQUE. For example,
code is read-write, but its attribute definition is marked UNIQUE, so

the field is not copied to the cloned record

A User contains the account information needed to gain access to the Admin
Portal. See Users on page 219.
A User belongs to a Group. A Group defines the permission level of every User
in the Group. A permission level is one of: Read/Write; Read-Only; or No-Access.
The Admin Portal automatically creates a set of permission for each group. The set
consists of one permission for each Element Type, Element ID, and Screen that
the Admin Portal manages
Element Types are the top level category of data managed by the Admin Portal and
correspond to one of the following:
the Equipment Type icons displayed on the Home Page, such as T7000,
T7100, Billing, or IseHouse
the Admin Portal menu folders in the Left Pane displayed in the Home
Page, such as AP Configuration> User Manager > Groups, or
Maintenance > Cleanup > SQL Cleanup
Element IDs are the mid-level category of data managed by the Admin Portal.
Each Element ID is an instance of the Element Type, for example,
localhost for the Billing Element Type

a specific shelf name for T7000 Element Type.
a cluster name for the T7100 Element Type
Screens are the bottom level category of data managed by the Admin Portal. A
screen corresponds to a Menu Link, for example,

elementType and elementID with an access level of Read-Only. See Adding a
Group on page 226 and access on page 232.
Only members of the Administrator group are allowed to create, modify, or delete
any of the items in the UserManager folder. This is true even if you assign readwrite access to these items to non-members of the Administrator group.
