Hello,
We are using Cisco Routers with a PRI E1 Controller and 30 Mica Modems to call devices in the PSTN.
Our devices are also able to dial in by themself.
With modems directly connected to a PC it is no problem to accept the calls and receive their data.
The idea was to use the Cisco Modems in the Router for this purpose.
For dialing out we use telnet to connect to the modem lines make the call and retrieve the data.
If the line is configured:
no flush-at-activation
modem InOut
no exec
transport input telnet
transport output lat pad v120 lapb-ta mop telnet rlogin udptn nasi ssh
escape-character NONE
the modems take an incoming call but no telnet connection to the port is possible.
If a telnet connection to the port is present and an incoming call occurs, the call is not taken and BUSY is signaled to the caller.
It seems to be impossible to handle incoming calls with the internal Cisco Mica Modems this way.
My questions are:
- Is it actually possible to use the Cisco Modems for dial in calls from devices that do not speak a Cisco supported protocol ?
- Is there an other way to solve this problem? ( maybe an automatic socket connection to another server in the net, who handles the incoming calls data? )
Thank you very much for your answers!
