Conguring the Network Settings The IP Extender Manager software displays information in a format similar t o Window s Explorer . Any NETRS232 devices on your network are displayed in the “IP Extenders Near Me” branch of the “My IP Extender Network ” tree. Each NETRS232 device on your network will need a unique IP address. These can be se[...]

Icon with green square: Under “My Computer , ” this icon means the port is available. Under “My IP Extender Neighborhood, ” this icon means the port is ac tiva ted lo[...]

Adv anced Settings Ports that have been activated on y our PC can generally be used without any fur ther conguration. There are , however , additional conguration options available through the IP Extender Manager . P or t Modes The interface converter converts serial port data to and from TCP/IP packets over Ethernet. Each port exchanges TCP/[...]

Virtual por t (driv er) settings The virtual por t allow s a serial por t on an NETRS232 device to be used in same manner as a local serial port when the por t is congured in Windows Mode (described above). In this state, the driver for the virtual port converts local serial por t acc esses into T CP/ IP packets to be exchanged with NETRS232 por[...]

T o prevent this diculty, NETRS232 Links have a “ discovery ” mode that allows the correct NETRS232 Link por t to be f ound even when the IP address of the associated box has changed. T o use this discovery mode, a “port binding” must be created for that virtual por t. A port binding is a network identication of the target NETRS232 Li[...]

Binding to IP Address The IP address of a network device is assigned by either the sy stem administrator or through a DHCP server . Binding a vir tual port to an IP address will for ce that virtual por t to attempt a c onnec tion to an y device with that particular IP address only . Binding to an IP address provides dynamic connections. Device IP a[...]

W AN Activation Activating and accessing the virtual serial port on a NE TRS232 device across a WAN can be done in two dierent wa ys, depending on how the NETRS232 device is accessible. • NETRS232 device is accessible externally – is directly accessible on the Internet. • NETRS232 device accessible internally – is located behind a gatewa[...]

Instruction Manual 14 4. Ensure that the port(s) to use W AN ac tiva tion on are congured for “Driver Mode” . 5. Record the TCP port number of the por t(s) to be accessible . 6.
