enabled at this modem. If cmManageable is “true”
(1), status polling will occur for the modem; if
“false” (2) no status polling will occur.
Busy Out Request
This object is used to put the modem out of
service, i.e. modem cannot make calls or answer
calls. If the modem to be busyout is handling a
call, the busyout action will be taken after the
current call is disconnected. After the modem is
in the busyout state, the following commands can
be applied to those modems: reset, bad modem,
download modem firmware, etc. This is called
“nice” or “graceful” busyout. The value of “true”
(1) indicates the busyout request has been issued
to the modem, but the busyout could be pending.
The management entity needs to query the
cmState to see if the modem is successfully
busied out. The value of “false” (2) indicates the
modem has not been given the busyout
command.
Shutdown
This object is used to put the modem out of
service — i.e., modem cannot make calls or
answer calls. This is a “hard” busyout command
to bring the modem out of service immediately
without waiting for the call to be ended normally.
After the modem is shut down, the following
commands can be applied to those modems:
reset, bad modem, download modem firmware,
etc. The value of “true” (1) indicates the hard
busyout has been issued to the modem. The value
of “false” (2) indicates the modem has not been
given a hard busyout command.
Hold Reset
A command hold-reset will put the state of
modem into reset mode until an inverse command
is given to bring the modem out of RESET mode.
During the period of reset mode, the modem
cannot be used. This object is only valid when
cmState is onHook, busiedOut, or disabled. The
value of “true” (1) attempts to put the modem in
reset mode, and the value of “false” (2) takes the
modem out of reset.
Bad Modem
This object can hold the modem out of service and
marks the modem as suspected or proven to be
bad. During the router start-up initialization
sequence, modem back-to-back tests will test
modems and mark those modems failing tests as
bad modems. The management entity also can
use this command to lock out the suspect modem
or unlock the modem to further debug or test.
This object is only valid when cmState is onHook
or busiedOut. The value of “true” (1) indicates the
modem is suspected to be bad and its state is set
to bad. The value of “false” (2) indicates the
modem has not been suspected to be bad or has
been remarked as good.
