System Administration Commands                         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 associated 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.

System Administration Commands                         ttyadm(1M)



     -i message     Specify the inactive (disabled) response mes-
                    sage.  This  message  will be sent to the TTY
                    port if the port is disabled  or  the  ttymon
                    monitoring the port is disabled.


     -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  monitoring  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 char-
                    acter. 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 com-
                    mand  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.

System Administration Commands                         ttyadm(1M)



     -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.
