The procedures in this section show how to configure communications over the serial line of the dial-out machine. Before you can use these procedures, you must have configured the modem and serial port, as described in How to Configure the Modem and Serial Port (Dial-out Machine).
The next tasks show how to enable the dial-out machine to successfully initiate communications with the dial-in server, based on options that are defined in the PPP configuration files. You need to create the following files:
/etc/ppp/options
/etc/ppp/options.ttyname
Chat script
/etc/ppp/peers/peer-name
Solaris PPP 4.0 provides templates for the PPP configuration files, which you can change to suit your needs. Refer to Dial-up PPP Template Files for detailed information about these files.
