This chapter contains the procedures for configuring terminals and modems to serial (RS-232-C) ports.

For HP-UX to communicate with a terminal or modem, the following conditions must be met:

  • The serial device driver required to communicate with the device must be part of the kernel.

  • The terminal or modem must be physically attached and configured to the port.

  • A device special file must be created to communicate through the port.

  • A getty process must be run against the (terminal) port to solicit logins.

For procedures on configuring terminals and modems attached to HP terminal controllers (DTCs) on the network, refer to the following resources:

  • Using the HP DTC Manager/UX (part number J2120-62000), for managing terminals and modems from a host HP-UX system.

  • Using HP OpenView DTC Manager (part number D2355-90001), for managing terminals and modems from a personal computer.

  • documentation accompanying your third-party terminal server.
