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

NAME
ModemManager - mobile broadband modem management daemon

SYNOPSIS
ModemManager [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION
ModemManager provides a unified high level API for communicating with mobile broadband
modems, regardless of the protocol used to communicate with the actual device (Generic AT,
vendor-specific AT, QCDM, QMI, MBIM...).

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

APPLICATION OPTIONS
--filter-policy=<policy>
Specify which ports are probed and how:

'ALLOWLIST-ONLY'
Only devices or ports explicitly allowlisted with the 'ID_MM_DE-
VICE_PROCESS' udev tag are probed.

'STRICT'
Only the TTY ports that are heuristically determined to be very likely to
be modem ports are probed. Nay end up ignoring some devices.

--no-auto-scan
Fully disable udev-based auto-scan looking for devices.

--initial-kernel-events=<filename>
Specify location of the file where the list of initial kernel events is available.
The ModemManager daemon will process this file on startup.

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

-V, --version
Print the ModemManager software version and exit.

-h, --help
Show application options.

LOGGING OPTIONS
--log-level=<level>
Sets how much information ModemManager sends to the log destination (usually sys-
log's "daemon" facility). By default, only informational, warning, and error mes-
sages 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.

--log-journal
Output log message to the systemd journal.

--log-timestamps
Include absolute timestamps in the log output.

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

TEST OPTIONS
--test-session
Run the ModemManager daemon in the Session bus instead of the System bus.

--test-enable
Enable the Test DBus interface in the daemon.

--test-plugin-dir=[PATH]
Specify an alternate directory where the daemon should look for vendor plugins.
