My question is about how to setup and connect a Intel 9600ex v.32 modem
to a Sun workstation (SunOS 4.1.1).

The Sun has a modem connected to it for some time already (at 1200 Baud).
I looked in files such as "/etc/remote" and "/etc/ttytab" and it seems
that the rate specified there reflects the modem transmission speed.

For the new modem, I am specifically concerned about the line speed from
the Sun to the modem. In order to get better throughput from data compression,
I assume that the line speed should be fairly high ( >> 9600).

Where can I set it, if I want to use the modem both to originate and
receive calls with data compression.

Any help is appreciated.
