Abstract
Apparatus and method for managing transmission of digital data between a digital telephone line and a computer network. First and second modems, a telephone control circuit and a network control circuit respond to management instruction signals to execute predetermined management objectives and generate management response signals representing one or more conditions of the first and second modems, telephone control circuit and network control circuit. In response to a single packet of management signals from the network, a management circuit generates the management instruction signals and independently addresses them to one or more of the first and second modems, telephone control circuit and network control circuit.
