<device name> is not callable
Each PPP device in the device database can have one or two phone numbers at which they
can be called. This message is displayed if the device has no phone number specified.
Re-enter the name, or <RET> to cancel
The device name must be re-entered.
Unable to prompt for device name at this time
Indicates that the
call
command would prompt you for a device name, but the necessary
resources are not available. The recommended actions are as follows:
1.
If possible, enter the device name on the command line.
2.
If the device name cannot be entered from the command line (for example, the device
name contains command line delimiters of a space, a comma, a colon, or a tab), the user
can wait for a few minutes and see if any resources become available.
3.
If actions 1 and 2 are ineffective, this may indicate an internal problem in the System,
please inform your service representative of the occurrence.

The
call peer
command allows you to make a connection with another device. For example,
to call a site with the configured phone number of 13135552222 and a data rate of 64Kbps, you
would enter
call peer 13135552222 64.
To use this command for troubleshooting, you must enable the Call Trace feature to capture
any connect and disconnect messages that are generated by issuing the
call peer
command.
To do this:
1.
Erase the current report log by entering
er
at the system prompt.
2.
Enable the Call Trace feature by entering
trace on
at the system prompt.

Issue the
call peer <phone number> [data rate]
