It should work ok with something like
set cbcp 12345,67890
If you want to embed spaces, you must put the whole argument in
quotes. Enable cbcp logging to ensure that ppp is sending what you
expect it to be.

This is a good idea. The problem is getting that number up to the
ppp level. I can imagine this is fairly easy if isdnd is in use (we
just need a ``call information'' ioctl for the i4brbch device), but
making this available through a TA would be horrible :-(
I've put it on my list of things to do. I really need to do some
work on the i4b side of things anyway....

What does that look like on the ppp(8) side when you ``set log +cbcp'' ?
You can already do this if you add ``none'' to the ``set callback''
line, but this isn't always useful as it's not specified per user....
