ttyadm(1M)
NAME
ttyadm - format and output port monitor-specific information
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/ttyadm [-b] [-c] [-h] [-I] [-r count] [-i msg] [-
m modules] [-p prompt] [-t timeout] [-S y | n] [-
T termtype] -d device -l ttylabel -s service
/usr/sbin/ttyadm -V
DESCRIPTION
The ttyadm command is an administrative command that formats
ttymon(1M)-specific information and writes it to standard
output. The Service Access Facility (SAF) requires each port
monitor to provide such a command. Note that the port moni-
tor administrative file is updated by the Service Access
Controller's administrative commands, sacadm(1M) and
pmadm(1M). ttyadm provides a means of presenting formatted
port monitor-specific (ttymon-specific) data to these com-
mands.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-b Set the ``bi-directional port'' flag. When this flag
is set, the line can be used in both directions.
ttymon will allow users to connect to the service
associated with the port, but if the port is free,
uucico(1M), cu(1C), or ct(1C) can use it for dialing
out.
-c Set the connect-on-carrier flag for the port. If the
-c flag is set, ttymon will invoke the port's associ-
ated service immediately when a connect indication is
received (that is, no prompt is printed and no baud-
rate searching is done).
-d device
device is the full pathname of the device file for the
TTY port.
-h Set the hangup flag for the port. If the -h flag is
not set, ttymon will force a hangup on the line by
setting the speed to 0 before setting the speed to the
default or specified value.
-i message
Specify the inactive (disabled) response message. This
message will be sent to the TTY port if the port is
disabled or the ttymon monitoring the port is dis-
abled.
-I Initialize only. If the -I option is used, ttymon
will invoke the service only once. This can be used
to configure a particular device without actually mon-
itoring it, as with software carrier.
-l ttylabel
Specify which ttylabel in the /etc/ttydefs file to use
as the starting point when searching for the proper
baud rate.
-m modules
Specify a list of pushable STREAMS modules. The
modules will be pushed in the order in which they are
specified before the service is invoked. modules must
be a comma-separated list of modules, with no white
space included. Any modules currently on the stream
will be popped before these modules are pushed.
-p prompt
Specify the prompt message, for example, ``login:''.
-r count
When the -r option is invoked, ttymon will wait until
it receives data from the port before it displays a
prompt. If count is 0, ttymon will wait until it
receives any character. If count is greater than 0,
ttymon will wait until count newlines have been
received.
-s service
service is the full pathname of the service to be
invoked when a connection request is received. If
arguments are required, the command and its arguments
must be enclosed in double quotes (" ").
-S y|n
Set the software carrier value. y will turn software
carrier on. n will turn software carrier off.
-t timeout
Specify that ttymon should close a port if the open on
the port succeeds, and no input data is received in
timeout seconds.
-T termtype
Set the terminal type. The TERM environment variable
will be set to termtype.
-V Display the version number of the current
/usr/lib/saf/ttymon command.
OUTPUT
If successful, ttyadm will generate the requested informa-
tion, write it to standard output, and exit with a status
of 0. If ttyadm is invoked with an invalid number of argu-
ments or invalid arguments, or if an incomplete option is
specified, an error message will be written to standard
error and ttymon will exit with a non-zero status.
