To perform the Dial Out verification for a remote device, you need to know the configured device
name associated with the device’s device table entry. Note that the device name is case sensitive. If
you already know the device name, skip to step 4. Otherwise, begin the verification process with
step 1.
1. Enter the Manage Mode by typing the following command at the system prompt:
> manage
2. Enter the following command at the Manage Mode prompt to display the current on-node
device table:
MANAGE> device
Make note of the device name for verification of the Dial Out feature.
3. Exit the Manage Mode by entering the following command:
MANAGE>
exit
4. The following administrative command is used to verify that the Dial Out feature is operational
to a specific remote device:
call device <device name>
For example, to verify that the Dial Out feature is operational for remote device with fred as the
configured device name, you would enter
call device fred at the system prompt.
5. A message will be displayed indicating whether or not the call was made successfully. Refer to
Dial Out in the Problem Diagnosis chapter if the call was not made successfully.

The cdr verify console command is used to verify that the Call Detail Recording (CDR) feature
is operational. This command will send a sample message to all servers that have been configured
for CDR. Check the log file of each server to verify that the message was logged. The message will
be similar to the example below; additional data items may be added in future releases.
<System Name> CDR VERIFY 1 of 1
In order for the cdr verify console command to be useful, an Ethernet LAN must be operational
and an IP route to all off-node servers must be defined and operational. The command can be
performed before all the WAN equipment is in place and configured.
Additional verification can be performed by forcing the logged events to occur and checking that
they are indeed logged. This would require that all WAN equipment and configuration is in
operational order.
The Connect and Disconnect events require a successful connection; a Reject event can be forced by
supplying a bad PAP password, for example.
If the cdr verify console command fails for an off-node server, refer to Call Detail Recording in
the Problem Diagnosis chapter.
