Functions
Port Duplication
During a manual connection (dial-in or dial-out), the modem and Command Line
Interface (CLI) ports appear as one at the character level. Any character typed
by either party is echoed on both terminals and entered into the ensuing
command. For example, if the CLI port user types "GET" and the modem port
user types "<blank>CONFIG" and presses RETURN, both users will see "GET
CONFIG" and the GET CONFIG screen.
