17.4 Port Monitors
17.4.1 ttymon
The ttymon monitor manages the TTY ports. It monitors, sets terminal modes, baud rates, and starts the specified service, e.g. login, for the port. The ttymon process sets the line disciplines according to the values specified in /etc/ttydefs (which replaces gettytab). ttymon replaces the getty process. A single ttymon command can monitor multiple ports. This command is configured using the sacadm program and it's services are specified using the pmadm and ttyadm commands.
