Unable to prompt for device name at this time

Indicates that the call command would prompt you for a device name, but the necessary resources are not available. The recommended actions are as follows:

1.If possible, enter the device name on the command line.

2.If the device name cannot be entered from the command line (for example, the device name contains command line delimiters of a space, a comma, a colon, or a tab), the user can wait for a few minutes and see if any resources become available.

3.If actions 1 and 2 are ineffective, this may indicate an internal problem in the System, please inform your service representative of the occurrence.

call peer <phone number> [data rate] [device] [bearer]

Initiates a call to a peer at the given number. Entering the data rate, device, and bearer is optional. We describe each of the optional fields below.

data rate

The default data rate value for HDLC calls is 56Kbps. The default data rate for digital modem calls is Auto.

device

The valid values are:

•HDLC: used for normal HDLC-ISDN calls

•DM: used for Digital Modem calls.

bearer

This field applies only to Digital Modem calls. The valid values are:

•SPEECH (the default if no bearer type is specified)

The call peer command allows you to make a connection with another device. For example, to call a site with the configured phone number of 13135552222 and a data rate of 64Kbps, you would enter call peer 13135552222 64.

To use this command for troubleshooting, you must enable the Call Trace feature to capture any connect and disconnect messages that are generated by issuing the call peer command. To do this:

1.Erase the current report log by entering er at the system prompt.

2.Enable the Call Trace feature by entering trace on at the system prompt.

3.Issue the call peer <phone number> [data rate] command.
