Devices

This command is supported in all Digi Connect products. However, some

supported

port profiles are not supported in particular devices, as noted in the “profile”

 

option’s description.

Purpose

Associates a particular port with one of several port configuration profiles,

 

or displays the current port-profile settings.

 

Port profiles are a defined set of port configuration settings for a particular

 

use. A port profile reconfigures serial-port settings to the necessary default

 

values in order for the profile to operate correctly.

 

Port-profile configuration is most often performed through the Web user

 

interface for a device. It is not often specified from the command line, but is

 

available if needed.

 

Digi Connect devices support several port profiles. Following is the

 

complete set of port profiles. The profiles supported on your Digi Connect

 

product may vary.

 

• Console Management profile: Allows you to access a device’s console

 

port over a network connection.

 

• Local Configuration profile allows you to connect standard terminals or

 

terminal emulation programs to the serial port in order to use the serial

 

port as a console to access the command line interface.”

 

• Modem Emulation profile: Allows you to configure the serial port to act

 

as a modem. (Not supported in Digi Connect WAN.)

 

• RealPort profile: Allows you to map a COM or TTY port to the serial

 

port. (Not supported in Digi Connect WAN)

 

• TCP Sockets profile: Allows a serial device to communicate over a TCP

 

network.

 

• Tunneling profile, also known as the Serial Bridge profile: Configures

 

one side of a serial bridge. A bridge connects two serial devices over

 

the network, as if they were connected with a serial cable.

 

• UDP Sockets profile: Allows a serial device to communicate using UDP.

 

(Not supported in Digi Connect WAN)

 

• Custom profile: An advanced option to allow full configuration of the

 

serial port. This profile allows you to view all settings associated with

 

the serial port.

 

• IA profile: Configures the serial port for use in Industrial Automation (ia).
