I'm using Solaris 11.2 on a T5-2 SPARC server, and when I log in on the console (via ILOM, using PuTTY), the terminal type gets set to "sun", which is really annoying.

Oracle's docs (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1451/modsafapp-81679.html) show a slightly different svccfg invocation:

# svccfg -s svc:/system/console-login:default "setprop ttymon/terminal_type = xterm"

As best I can tell, the svccfg line you used is valid for Solaris 10, not 11, but I'm not at all certain of that conclusion.
