As a consequence, some German manufactured routers have an 'S0' admin
port in addition to a console port. Much like Cisco's have an AUX port
to plug an external modem into, the German S0 port is for an ISDN BRI ..
much more civilised for remote management than modems :)

Sadly the ISDN ports seem to be crippled when exported to other parts of
the world.
