to implement the use of virtual COM ports. This allows you
to map a COM port on a PC to the serial port on your ES1AWB. Using
RealPort software
(included with the ES1AWB) you create a virtual COM
port on the PC. When your application sends data to this port, RealPort
redirects the data across the network to the ES1AWB. The ES1AWB passes
the data to the serial device connected to its serial port. The network is
transparent to the user application and the serial device connected to the
ES1AWB.
For information on how to use RealPort to create virtual COM ports on your PC
see Chapter 8
Console
Management
In
Console Management
the ES1AWB can be configured for connection to
the management port typically found on network devices such as routers,
switches and servers. This allows remote management of the network device.
Communication can be accomplished using telnet to a specific port in the
serial server.
