Oh, it's some different AT protocol (some distributed mambojambo) than Hayes AT protocol.

Someone also posted a link to the Hayes command set and I was glad.

Yeah I was super confused for a minute, wondering what cool and fun use someone found for this old protocol.

It's been extended to include connecting SSH sessions.

It's been a few years, but it's something like

  ATDS"username:password@host:port"

+++ATH0+++ ... good times

ATZ

AT&F

ATDT5551234

My first job in IT was at AOL tech support and we could rattle off AT modem strings from memory :)
