strings; if this is not possible on your terminal you will need to send strings
manually. See Appendix D for a list of character strings you can use to emulate
special keys on the server keyboard.
Connecting to Integrated RA from an HP-UX Workstation
If an HP-UX workstation running HP Visual User Environment (HP VUE) will
serve as your remote management client, you can connect to Integrated RA and
start a communications session using the xterm terminal emulator.
To open an xterm window with the appropriate settings for Integrated RA, type the
following:
xterm -T "Integrated RA" -bg black -fg white -sb
-cr white -geometry 80x25
The above example specifies a session window with a black background, a white
foreground, a white cursor, a scrollbar, and an 80 by 25 character display. (See the
xterm
man
page for more parameter options.)
To initiate communications with a modem or other serial device, use the
cu
(Call
UNIX) command. For example, at the xterm command prompt, type:
cu -1 hayes 9,4085551234
The "-1 hayes" specifies the device name to use as the communications line.
Device names are contained in the file
/usr/lib/uucp/Devices
. See the cu
man
page
for more information.
In the example above, "hayes" refers to an auto-dialing modem, so the cu
command will direct the modem to dial the number 9,408-555-1234.
