Virtual ports

In the Terminal server application, the Virtual Ports Properties window allows the user
to enable or disable connection to a particular device. It appears the virtual port number
for each configured device, and the corresponding serial or network settings.
In the Virtual Port Properties window, a tree appears the devices that can be connected
through a virtual port. For serial ports, the window retrieves the available serial ports
from the Registry. For network connections, the window retrieves the site and system
information from the TM 3.0 database. The virtual port for a system uses the same IP
address assigned to System Terminal. The tree mirrors the tree in the TM 3.0 Navigator.
It uses the communication profile in System Properties, determined as follows:
•

To configure virtual port connection for a device, click Systems in the Terminal server
window, or double-click a Configured System in the list (this selects the corresponding
device in the Virtual Port Properties window allowing the user to quickly change the
settings for a particular device).
To enable virtual port connection for a device, do one of the following:
•
553-3001-230 Standard 10.01
For a Generic system, it uses the profile (serial or network) selected in the
Application page in System Properties.
For a non-Generic system, it uses the communication settings from the profile
(serial or network) assigned to Virtual System Terminal in the Applications page in
System Properties.
For any system, if a network (Ethernet) profile is selected, Terminal server uses a
Telnet connection.
Double-click the disabled port in the tree.
