Rackable Systems management card Configure for dial-in modem access
Digi CM User Guide 117
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 receives a login prompt from the other side
(normally another Digi CM unit).
If the login-in prompt (login:) is detected the line is disconnected again 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.
There are multiple ways to review the information about the mode test:
• syslog in the Digi CM unit:
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
The Alert configuration dialog of the port configuration, contains multiple settings:
The title of the e-mail and the address can be configured.
To be able to configure e-mail notifications, a primary SMTP server has to be configured under
Network > SMTP configuration.
▪ SNMP configuration
It is also possible to receive notifications using SNMP traps.
When using SNMP traps the global settings for IP address, Community and Version can be used,
or specified separately.
The Trap MIB can be downloaded from support.digi.com (select your product and go to
Diagnostics, Utilities and MIBs).
