Command
Query
(Instruction Code
and Qualifier)
Response to
Query
IP Address
IPA=
18 bytes,
numerical
Command or Query.
Sets or returns the IP address and network prefix for the ‘10/100 M&C’ 10/100
BaseT Ethernet management port, in the form xx.xxx.xxx.xxx.yy, where:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address
yy is the network prefix (from 8 to 30)
Example: <0/IPA=010.006.030.001.24
IPA=
IPA?
IPA*
IPA#
IPA?
IPA=
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.yy
(see Description of
Arguments)
IP Gateway
IPG=
15 bytes
numerical
Command or Query.
Sets or returns the IP Gateway Address for the Ethernet management port, in the
form aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd, where permitted ranges (all zeroes are not permitted) are:
aaa = 0–223
bbb = 0–255
ccc = 0–255
ddd = 0–255
Example: <0/IPG=010.006.030.001

(see Description of
Arguments)
MAC Address
N/A
12 bytes,
Alphanumerical
Query only.
Returns the unique MAC Address for the modem.
Example: <0/MAC?
>0/MAC=0006B00001C2
N/A
MAC?
MAC=aabbccddeeff
(see Description of
Arguments)
Request to Send RTS=
1 byte,
value of 0 thru 3
Command or Query.
Sets or returns how RTS/CTS operates at the main data interface in the form x,
where:
0 = RTS/CTS Loop, No Action
RTS and CTS are looped, so that CTS echoes the state of RTS, but RTS
does not control the ON/OFF state of the carrier
1 = Loop, RTS Controls Tx O/P
RTS and CTS are looped, so that CTS echoes the state of RTS, and RTS
controls the ON/OFF state of the carrier (in other words, the modem will not
bring up its TX carrier until RTS is asserted.)
2 = Ignore RTS, Assert CTS
3 = 1:N system in use.
RTS/CTS ignored (Query only) RTS is ignored, and CTS is asserted
unconditionally.
Example: <0/RTS=0 (RTS/CTS Loop, No Action).
