NAME

dbconfig − initializes the dial box

SYOPNSIS

/usr/etc/dbconfig serial-device

DESCRIPTION

dbconfig opens the designated serial port and sets its baud, parity and transmission rates.  It also removes all STREAMS modules already pushed upon it (such as ttcompat(4M) and ldterm(4M)) and pushes the dial box STREAMS module “db” onto the device.  db then holds the stream open to maintain this configuration. 

If the device /dev/dialbox has not been created and linked to the serial port, dbconfig will fail.
