Configuring Remote Dial-In Access
Chapter 11 87
After the system has booted, the interval has elapsed, and the modem is
not in use, the specified dial number is called. The modem trains and

the modem test is considered successful.
Two ports can call each other using this modem test procedure.
Please be aware that the tests will fail if the other modem is in use.

• syslog in the Digi CM itself:
07-16-2004 12:45:01 > Port #16 - Modem Test started. Calling to 1234444567.
07-16-2004 12:45:22 > Modem connected through Port #15
07-16-2004 12:45:22 > Port #16 - Modem Test succeeded
In this example a modem connected to port 16 is calling another
modem connected to port 15.
Any errors occurring are captured in the syslog file as well.
• e-mail based notification

When using SNMP traps the global settings for IP address, Community
