Enables or disables modem dial-in to a control processor (CP).

setmodem [-e] | [-d]

Use this command to enable or disable modem dial-in to a CP on those systems that support

modem dial-in. When modem dial-in is enabled, you can log in to a CP through a modem, and a

to the CP does not accept the call. When entered with no operands, the command displays the

current state of the modem dial-in.

and CP1. These modems connect to the telephone outlet through an RJ-11 Y-adapter and standard
