Real COM Port Management – Linux

Mapping/Unmapping Virtual Ports

To map or unmap virtual ports, do the following:

1.As root, go to the /usr/lib/AtenVPort directory.

2.Issue the following command:

/AtenVPMapping

The process can run in either Interactive mode or Fast mode. With Interactive mode, users don’t specify any parameters on the command line. They make mapping/unmapping choices based on questions generated as the program runs.

With Fast mode, users specify parameters on the command line to indicate their mapping/unmapping choices – as shown in the following examples:

1.Mapping (input should all be on one line):

./AtenVPMapping map(1) PCPort(0-255) TargetIP(a.b.c.d) TargetPort(1-48) NumberofMapping(1-48)

2.Unmapping (input should all be on one line):

./AtenVPMapping unmap(0) PCPort(0-255) NumberofUnMapping(1-48)

Virtual Port Naming Rules

All of the ATEN SN virtual ports under Linux have the prefix ttya.

Mapped virtual ports can be found in the /dev dir. They all have a prefix of ttya (ttya000, ttya001, etc.). The range is from ttya000 – ttya255.
