Change Telephone Number(s) (chtn)
(Disruptive)
Use the chtn command to change one or more of the telephone numbers used by a COMSPHERE
3400/4400 Series modem equipped with the Auto-Call Auto-Answer (ACAA) unit; or use this
command to change the local telephone number associated with a COMSPHERE 3600 Series
DBM.
There are two telephone directories in the 3600 Series DSU’s DBM. The first directory is accessed
with the Change Call Directory (chcd) command. This directory stores the telephone numbers of
the remote DBMs that are called when the DDS link fails. The second directory is accessed with
the Change Telephone Number(s) (chtn) command and contains the telephone number of the DBM
itself. This is the telephone number used by the other DBMs to call it.
For most commands, NMS enables you to specify the destination for the command’s results and
schedule its execution. If the last page of the input form cannot accommodate the Destination for
results and Schedule execution fields, an additional page is provided. For a complete description
of these fields, refer to Chapter 1, Introduction.
