Very Computer

Greetings all,

        I have a 2511 - I have multiple modems - I want these modems to reset
with a particular initialization string when the call is dropped or hung
up.

        I look at the Cisco doco. It says that the command chat-script reset
will sent the script to the modem when the call is dropped.

        However this is not true. The script is only sent to the modem when
the actual line is reset (ie not the asynch portion). Now when the call is
dropped, the asynch portion resets, but the physical line does not, and
thus the string is never sent.

        If I issue a clear line 1 say, then the line resets and the string is
sent.

Am I missing a command here, or is there some way to have the line reset
automatically when the call is hung up or dropped.

Regards

Bruce.

Hi Bruce,  I have found using the "script activation" along with the
"script reset" works quite well.  However, the script is ran when the
next call comes in on that line.  I believe the way this works is that
when the router sees the "RING" indicator on that line it knows that a
call is coming in and will send the script to the modem.  I mentioned
using both commands above because I didn't seem to have much success with
just "script activation".

Hope this helps.

Will/Has this be fixed by Cisco so that the reset script works
appropriately?

Thanks

Chris

I had the same problem until I realised today (just before reading this
post) that the reset chat-script did not work (never...).

I did the easiest, I just set up the modem to reset after the DTR goes
down  (register s13=1 in USR modems).

It seem that Cisco 2511 with 11.1 (7) has some bugs that make it miss
the sync. with the "physical" async line, so you have to manually send
AT command to the modem (via a reverse telnet) to sync them again.
A reset script could be a good medicine, if it works, but this not the
case.

How can a expensive equipment, designed for remote accesses, have this
problems?. I received some answers from Cisco people (thanks) telling me
to do autoconfig and to delete every  script..., apart of the fact that
the problem stays there, what are the scripts for?

It's a little disappointing trying to get a reliable configuration in
the Ciscos2511, before was a bug in the version OS 10, now is the reset
script and synchronization problems, what more?

I spent one year configurating Ciscos, and they are still very
unreliable (I mean every day we have troubles with at least one modem)
with the async. lines.. SNIFFF :-(

HELP!
