NAME
ttyadm - format and output port monitor-specific information
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/ttyadm [ -b ] [ -c ] [ -r count ] [ -h ] [ -i msg ] [-m modules
]
-p prompt ] [ -t timeout ] -d device -l ttylabel -s
service
/usr/sbin/ttyadm -V
DESCRIPTION
The ttyadm command is an administrative command that formats ttymon-
specific information and writes it to the standard output. The Service
Access Facility (SAF) requires each port monitor to provide such a
command. Note that the port monitor administrative file is updated by
the Service Access Controller's administrative commands, sacadm and
pmadm. ttyadm provides a means of presenting formatted port monitor-
specific (i.e., ttymon-specific) data to these commands.
-b Sets the ``bidirectional 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, cu, or ct can use it
for dialing out.
-c Sets 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
(i.e., 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 Sets 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 zero before setting the speed to the default or
specified value.
-i message Specifies 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 disabled.
-l ttylabel Specifies which ttylabel in the /etc/ttydefs file to use as
the starting point when searching for the proper baud rate.
-m modules Specifies 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.

-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 equal to zero, ttymon will wait until it
receives any character. If count is greater than zero,
ttymon will wait until count newlines have been received.
-p prompt Specifies the prompt message, e.g., ``login:.''
-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.
-t timeout Specifies that ttymon should close a port if the open on
the port succeeds and no input data is received in timeout
seconds.
-V Displays the version number of the current
/usr/lib/saf/ttymon command.
OUTPUT
If successful, ttyadm will generate the requested information, write it
on the standard output, and exit with a status of 0. If ttyadm is
invoked with an invalid number of arguments or invalid arguments, or if
an incomplete option is specified, an error message will be written to
the standard error and ttymon will exit with a non-zero status.
