n Console Management: Manage a serial device's console port over a network connection. The
Console Management profile allows you to access a Digi device's console port over a network
connection. Most network devices such as routers, switches, and servers offer one or more
serial ports for management. Instead of connecting a terminal to the console port, cable the
console port to the serial port of the Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family product. Then
using TCP/IP utilities like reverse telnet, network administrators can access these consoled
serial ports from the LAN.
See Assign a profile to a serial port for more information.
n Custom: The Custom profile is an advanced option to allow full configuration of the serial port.
Use the Custom profile only if the serial port does not fit into any of the predefined port
profiles. For example, when network connections involve a mix of TCP and UDP sockets. See
Assign a profile to a serial port for more information.
n DialServ: The DialServ profile allows connecting a Digi DialServ™ device to the serial port. Digi
DialServ is an RJ-11 phone line simulator that allows legacy devices with built-in modems to
communicate across LANs/WANs. This profile configures the Digi device to connect/tunnel
serial data to an external host when the DialServ receives an incoming call, causes the DialServ
to make outgoing calls, and tunnels TCP data from the incoming connection over the Dialserv
when TCP traffic is received on the configured ports on the Digi device.
Important DialServ interoperation requires this profile.
n Local Configuration: The Local Configuration profile allows you to sign in and access the
command line interface when connecting directly to a serial port on a Digi device. This profile
provides a login from the Digi device. See Assign a profile to a serial port for more information.
n Modem Emulation: The Modem Emulation profile allows you to configure the serial port to act
as a modem. The Digi device server emulates modem responses to a serial device and
seamlessly sends and receives data over an Ethernet network instead of a PSTN (Public
Switched Telephone Network). This allows you to retain legacy software applications without
modification and use a less expensive Ethernet network in place of public telephone lines. See
Assign a profile to a serial port for more information.
