    Hi, the tty would be configure on a rs232 port, after the tty is configured, it can
    be use to connect to any serial connection compatible device that require rs232 connect. For the console devices, it can be vty(for example on lpar), tty (for example, pc hyperterm) or lft (graphic console).
