I dont know the correct way - but I have found that once you have the
/dev/cuaa? device open - either as a file in  C or as a redrect to a shell
script (ie /dir/myscript </dev/cuaa0) that you can then issue and stty on
it that will stick.

so if I have a script called /dir/myscript that I call by saying:

/dir/myscript </dev/cuaa0

Then on my first line of myscript I can say:

stty -f /dev/cuaa0 2400
