Serial/IP Virtual COM’s Control Panel later.
7.2.2 TCP Server Application: Enable RFC 2217
The underlying protocol of Virtual COM is based on RFC 2217, the Telnet COM Control Option.
Therefore, it is possible to use RFC 2217 with SE5416A Series in the TCP Server mode. To do
so, refer to Sec 7.2.1 to enable Virtual COM, so that SE5416A Series becomes aware of the
commands. Note that there is no need to configure Virtual COM on the Operating System
because Virtual COM ports would not be used.
7.2.3 TCP Client Application: Enable Virtual COM
It is also possible to run VCOM in TCP Client mode. It is usually easier to use Virtual COM in
the Client mode if SE5416A Series uses dynamic IP (DHCP) because setting a static IP
address in Virtual COM’s Control Panel in the Operating System is not possible.
Figure 7.8
Follow Sec. 7.1.2 to configure SE5416A Series in TCP Client mode properly.
Click on the dropdown box of the Mode option and switch to “Virtual COM” to enabled
