Yes, or some other custom process that keeps an MBIM session open and
is able to receive unsolicited messages. ModemManager works very well
in this case, so I'd just suggest that.

I built ModemManager, libqmi and libmbim packages for openwrt a while ago, see:

Is the dbus-daemon running?

This is implicit in ModemManager. ModemManager registers for the
indications automatically. Which indications are you wanting to
monitor?
