Diag Callback
Description: Displays messages related to the callback functionality of the MAX unit. Use
the command to display, for example, sessions queued for callback. The command is a toggle
that alternately enables and disables the debug display.
With the callback feature enabled, the MAX unit hangs up after receiving an incoming call that
matches the specifications in the Connection profile. The unit then uses the Dial # value
specified in the Connection profile to call back the device at the remote end of the link.
Use the Diag Callback command to tighten security by ensuring that the MAX connection to
known destinations only. The command can also help you troubleshoot detailed areas of the
callback process.
Usage: Enter
diag callback
at the command prompt.
Example: Following are several examples of output displayed by the Diag Callback
command.

The following message appears as the MAX unit prepares to call back the remote end:
CALLBACK: processing entry topeka
The MAX unit then dials the remote end:
CALLBACK: initiate call to topeka
When the call has been made and is being negotiated:
CALLBACK: new state WAITING
If callback failed and will be retried:
CALLBACK: new state FAILED
If callback is never successful, the call is marked for removal from the callback list and the
following message appears:
CALLBACK-FAILED: topeka marked as failed
After the remote end is called back, its entry is removed from the Callback list so that the
MAX can reallocate and use the resources. The following message appears:
CALLBACK: deleting entry topeka
