Cellular package
-
Hello,
I have a Huawei LTE USB modem connected to the router and it creates the serial interface /dev/cuaU0.0 and /dev/cuaU0.1. The cellular package has this statement
Check this to also reset the modem. Please make sure to use the cuaZ99.0 port in PPP or the modem will change its port after the restart.
How is the /dev/cuaZ99.0 interface created?

I have E3372h modem which shows up like this,
$usbconfig -d ugen1.2 dump_device_desc ugen1.2: <HUAWEIMOBILE HUAWEIMOBILE> at usbus1, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON (2mA) bLength = 0x0012 bDescriptorType = 0x0001 bcdUSB = 0x0210 bDeviceClass = 0x0000 <Probed by interface class> bDeviceSubClass = 0x0000 bDeviceProtocol = 0x0000 bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0040 idVendor = 0x12d1 idProduct = 0x1506 bcdDevice = 0x0102 iManufacturer = 0x0001 <HUAWEI_MOBILE> iProduct = 0x0002 <HUAWEI_MOBILE> iSerialNumber = 0x0000 <no string> bNumConfigurations = 0x0001
I copied the cellular package install devd script and changed the idProduct,
$cp /etc/devd/cellular.conf /usr/local/etc/devd/cellular1.conf $cat /usr/local/etc/devd/cellular1.conf ### # /etc/devd/cellular.conf ### # radios attach 1000 { match "vendor" "0x12d1"; match "product" "0x1506"; action "/usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/bin/cellular_dev.py -a -d $device-name"; }; notify 1000 { match "vendor" "0x12d1"; match "product" "0x1506"; match "type" "DETACH"; match "port" "[0-9]"; action "/usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/bin/cellular_dev.py -r"; };
Even after a reboot i dont see the cuaZ99.0 device being created,
$ls -la /dev/cua* crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 0x47 Jul 25 12:47 /dev/cuaU0.0 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 0x48 Jul 25 12:47 /dev/cuaU0.0.init crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 0x49 Jul 25 12:47 /dev/cuaU0.0.lock crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 0x4d Jul 25 12:47 /dev/cuaU0.1 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 0x4e Jul 25 12:47 /dev/cuaU0.1.init crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 0x4f Jul 25 12:47 /dev/cuaU0.1.lock
This is on pfSense 2.4.4 snapshot. Is the package broken?
