The Solaris OS software shipped with an appropriate entry for hardwire in

the /etc/remote file. If you have reason to suspect that this file was altered
and the hardwire entry modified or deleted, check the entry against the
following example, and edit it as needed.
hardwire:\
:dv=/dev/term/b:br#9600:el=^C^S^Q^U^D:ie=%$:oe=^D:
Note – If you intend to use the system's serial port A rather than serial port B, edit
this entry by replacing /dev/term/b with /dev/term/a.
If the number displayed by the uname -r command is less than 5.0:
■
Check the /etc/remote file and add the following entry, if it does not already
■
exist.
hardwire:\
:dv=/dev/ttyb:br#9600:el=^C^S^Q^U^D:ie=%$:oe=^D:
Note – If you intend to use the system's serial port A rather than serial port B, edit
this entry by replacing /dev/ttyb with /dev/ttya.
The /etc/remote file is now properly configured. Continue establishing a Tip
connection to the Sun Netra T5440 server system console. See
System Console Through a Tip Connection" on page
If you have redirected the system console to ttyb and want to change the system
console settings back to use the serial management and network management
ports, see "System Console OpenBoot Configuration Variable Settings" on
page 26.
