MODEMMANAGER(8) System Manager's Manual MODEMMANAGER(8)
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.
