Serial data communication over TCP and UDP

Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family products support serial data communication over TCP and
UDP. The key features include:
n
Serial data communication over TCP can automatically perform the following functions:
Establish bi-directional TCP connections, known as autoconnections, between the serial
l
device and a server or other network device. Autoconnections are based on data and/or
serial hardware signals.
Control forwarding characteristics based on size, time, and pattern.
l
Allow incoming raw, telnet, and SSL/TLS (secure-socket) connections.
l
Support RFC2217, an extension of the telnet protocol.
l
n
Serial data communication over UDP can automatically perform the following functions:
Digi Connect products can automatically send serial data to one or more devices or
l
systems on the network using UDP sockets. Options for sending data include whether
specific data is on the serial line, a specific time period has elapsed, or after the specified
number of bytes has been received on the serial port.
Control forwarding characteristics based on size, time, and patterns.
l
Support incoming datagrams from multiple destinations.
l
Support outgoing datagrams sent to multiple destinations.
l
n
TCP/UDP forwarding characteristics.
