11.2. ADSL-X device activation

Use the following command to add the device. More ADSL modems can be used at the same time, so an hardware device identifier is used: a dev:adslusb-x (x: HW DEVICE IDENTIFIER IN THE RANGE [1..250] IS REQUIRED).

[Caution]Caution

After adding or setting the device active, you must restart the Abilis to make the device running (use the command warm start to reboot the Abilis).

The resource adsl-1 is automatically set active.
