NAME

       ModemManager - modem management daemon

SYNOPSIS

       ModemManager [--version] | [--help]

       ModemManager [--debug] [--log-level=<level>] [--log-file=<filename>] [--timestamps] [--relative-timestamps]

DESCRIPTION

       The  ModemManager  daemon  provides a unified high level API for communicating with (mobile broadband) modems. While the basic commands are
       standardized, the more advanced operations (like signal quality monitoring while connected) varies a lot.

       ModemManager is a system daemon and is not meant to be used directly from the
	      command line.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       --version
	      Print the ModemManager software version and exit.

       --help Print ModemManager's available options and exit.

       --debug
	      Runs ModemManager with "DEBUG" log level and without daemonizing. This is useful for debugging, as it directs log output to the con-
	      trolling terminal in addition to syslog.

       --log-level=<level>
	      Sets  how much information ModemManager sends to the log destination (usually syslog's "daemon" facility). By default, only informa-
	      tional, warning, and error messages are logged. Given level must be one of "ERR", "WARN", "INFO" or "DEBUG".

       --log-file=<filename>
	      Specify location of the file where ModemManager will dump its log messages, instead of syslog.

       --timestamps
	      Include absolute timestamps in the log output.

       --relative-timestamps
	      Include timestamps, relative to the start time of the daemon, in the log output.

	      NetworkManager(8).
