NAME¶
ucom
—
USB tty support
SYNOPSIS¶
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:device ucom
ucom_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION¶
Theucom
driver attaches to USB modems,
serial ports, and other devices that need to look like a tty. The
ucom
driver shows a behavior like a
tty(4). This means that normal programs such as
tip(1) or ppp(8) can
be used to access the device.
The portno locater can be used to decide which
port to use for devices that have multiple external ports.
FILES¶
- /dev/cuaU?
- /dev/ttyU?
