How to Add Terminals Through the Command Line

The following procedure is required to set up a terminal on ttya port through the command line.

1. Determine the port monitor version number by typing the following command:

   # ttyadm -V

   The port monitor version number displays.

2. Type the following commands, substituting the port monitor version number for ver.

   # pmadm -r -p zsmon -s ttya # sacadm -a -p zsmon -t ttymon -c /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -v ver

   For more information, see the pmadm(1M) and sacadm(1M) man pages.

3. To add a login service, use the pmadm command that matches your terminal type.

   • For EUC terminals, use the following command.

     #pmadm -a -p zsmon -s ttya -i root -fu -v ver -m “ `ttyadm -S y \ -T terminal_type -d /dev/ttya -l 9600 -m ldterm,ttcompat -s \ /usr/bin/login`”

   • For BIG5 code terminals, use the STREAMS module big5euc in the ttyadm command.

     # pmadm -a -p zsmon -s ttya -i root -fu -v ver -m “`ttyadm -S y \ -T terminal_type -d /dev/ttya -l 9600 -m big5euc,ldterm,ttcompat -s \ /usr/bin/login`”

4. Turn on the terminal.

   Familiarize yourself with the documentation that accompanies the terminal.

5. Log in to the terminal.

6. Check to see that the installation is correct.

   # setenv LANG locale # /bin/stty cs8 -istrip defeucw

   Note –

   These values show that the operating system is set to communicate with the terminal in 8-bit no-parity mode. Make sure the terminal is set up in 8-bit no-parity mode. Refer to the terminal's setup manual for the proper way to set terminal options.
