On PRI channels can be configured for use both incoming and outgoing.

Yes, you can set a pool of ports for incoming only and a pool for outgoing
only (And also a shared pool). You can do say S0-S9 as inbound, S10-S19 as
inbound and outbound, and S20-29 as outbound only.

Yes, You can set them modems to outbound network devices. You can access
them a number of different ways depending on the application and host OS.

3.9 which is in public beta supports both NAT and server side nat (Providing
NAT to dial in nodes that do not support it).

CHAP yes, MSCHAP no.

Yes. Also new modem code is coming today for it.

Yes, You can use SNMP to build charts of it or for real time monitoring you
can use PMVision.

Yes, In RADIUS both Service-Type=Administrative-User and NAS-Prompt-User.
Admin is the equivilent of !root and NAS-Prompt has limited access to
setting and resetting items.

> 9)Does PM3 support redundancy in terms of powersupply

Yes, You can order it with redundant -48V power supplies if using a -48V
power source.
