Change Directory (Chd) - Paradyne COMSPHERE 6800 Series Command Reference Manual

COMSPHERE 6800 Series Network Management System

Change Directory (chd)

Use the chd command to overwrite the telephone number and comments in a DATAPHONE DDD
modem's AUTOCALL dialer. If the directory update option in the modem is disabled, the NMS
receives an error message indicating the change cannot be made.
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.

the command to avoid deleting these characters.
