Configuring a Modem in Solaris Configuring a Modem in Solaris Procedure
- Connect a proper cable between the port and modem.
- Connect to the modem with tip.
tip -38400 /dev/dty/a001s
The speed (38400) and device (/dev/dty/a001s) are used as
examples in the previous tip command.
- Enter one of the following commands depending on your
modem:

Command

Comment

|
AT&H1&B0&W

|
|
AT&H1&W
|

|
- Terminate the connection to the modem with a tilde-period
command:
~.
- Access admintool by entering this command at a root prompt:
admintool
- Select Browse > Serial Ports.
- Select a device.
- Select Edit > Modify.
- Configure the device parameters. Typically a terminal device is
set to Terminal-Hardwired and Service Enabled.
- Set the Baud Rate.
Note that the default admintool baud rates cycle, meaning the
speed at the end of the corresponding /etc/ttytype entry is
different than the speed at the beginning of the entry. It is often
preferable to set them to a fixed rate.
As an example, this line can be added to /etc/ttytype to
configure the device for a 38400 fixed rate.
38400N:38400 hupcl:38400 hupcl::38400N
If a custom /etc/ttytype entry is used, set Baud Rate to Other
and enter the /etc/ttytype identifier (e.g. 38400N).
- Edit the file /etc/rc2.d/S99digi (create it if necessary) and
add the following command to it:
ditty rtspace ctspace /dev/dty/a001m
The device a001m is used as an example in the previous ditty
command.
