modemulator

modemulator is small golang server that emulates a small subset of the Hayes AT command set. The server can be configured to connect to other backend services via the telnet protocol when a user dials specific numbers.

The server is intended to be used with a serial terminal or via a virtual serial port in a virtual machine to emulate a modem connection to a remote server.

...
... socat[xxx] N PTY is /dev/pts/2
...
$ minicom -D /dev/pts/2

Within minicom type ATDT54311 to dial the shell server.
