2. The device database can be modified in two ways:

• To create terminal accounts with default settings, type /tcb/bin/

ttys_update.

• To customize terminal entries, you must create them individually

by entering the system administrator’s shell (you must be logged

in as the root user). To enter the administrator’s shell, type

sysadmsh and press ENTER.

3. Create device entries for each port of the ISI card by selecting the

following from the database menu: Accounts, Terminal, Create.

4. Type the complete name of the first device you want to create,

substituting the base name, board number, and port letter for the

parameters: ttylb. Use a lower case x value for local DTE

(terminal) support and an upper case X value for modem control

for each port you want to enable. The port status can be altered

later, but one setting must be selected at this time.

5. Repeat this process for each port on each board you have installed.

Record the setting you select for each port.

6. Using device names created in the previous section, type the

following command for each port you want to activate: enable

ttylbx

7. Repeat this command for each port you want to activate, using the

lower case letter for local terminal use or upper case for modem

control.

Note: Only one of the options (e.g., modem control or local

terminal access) should be enabled for any port at one time. For

example, you cannot enable ttyl1a and then enable ttyl1A. To

change the status of a port, disable the current status (disable

ttyl1a) and then enable it for the desired status (enable ttyl1A).
