Line Service Commands

signals dtr

You can specify how the DTR signal pin acts during your modem application connection, as itself (DTR), as DCD, or as RI.

signals rts

You can specify how the RTS signal pin acts during your modem application connection, as itself (RTS), as DCD, or as RI.

style

One of the following:

zVerbose—Return codes (strings) are sent to the connected device.

zNumeric—The following characters can be sent to the connected device: 0 OK

1 CONNECTED

2 RING

3 NO CARRIER

4 ERROR

6 ITERFACE DOWN

7 CONNECTION REFUSED

8 NO LISTNER

success-string

String that is sent to the serial device when a connection succeeds. If no string is entered, then the string CONNECT will be sent with the connecting speed, for example CONNECT 9600.

suppress

If set to No, connection success/failure indication strings are sent to the connected device, otherwise these indications are suppressed.

Set Vmodem-Phone

Description

This command associates a phone number with an IP address and TCP port. This

 

enables the existing modem application to issue a dial command with a phone number.

 

The phone number will be searched in this table and if an exact match is found, the

 

associated IP address and TCP port will be used to establish the connection. This is a

 

universal command, meaning that all VModem lines will have access to the entries

 

defined here. 1-port models support up to 4 entries, all other desktop models support up

User Level

to 8 entries, and rack-mount models support up to 48 entries.

Admin

Syntax

set vmodem-phone entry <number> phone-number <string>
