l Control forwarding characteristics based on size, time, and pattern.
l Allow incoming raw, telnet, and SSL/TLS (secure-socket) connections.
n Serial data communication over UDP can automatically perform the following functions:
l Digi Connect products can automatically send serial data to one or more devices or
systems on the network using UDP sockets. Options for sending data include whether
specific data is on the serial line, a specific time period has elapsed, or after the specified
number of bytes has been received on the serial port.
l Control forwarding characteristics based on size, time, and patterns.
l Support incoming datagrams from multiple destinations.
l Support outgoing datagrams sent to multiple destinations.
n TCP/UDP forwarding characteristics.
n Extended communication control on TCP/UDP data paths.
l Timeout
l Hangup
l User-configurable Socket ID string (text string identifier on autoconnect only)
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
You can use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to automatically assign IP addresses, deliver
IP stack configuration parameters such as the subnet mask and default router, and provide other
configuration information. For more details, see Assign an IP address using DHCP.
Auto IP
The Auto-IP protocol automatically assigns an IP address from a reserved pool of standard Auto-IP
addresses to the computer on which it is installed. Digi devices automatically obtain their IP
addresses from a DHCP server. If the DHCP server is unavailable or nonexistent, Auto-IP assigns the
device an IP address. For more details, see Assign an IP address using Auto-IP.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol for managing and monitoring network
devices. SNMP architecture enables a network administrator to manage nodes—servers,
workstations, routers, switches, hubs, and so on—on an IP network; manage network performance,
find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth. For more information on SNMP as a
device-management interface, see Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS)
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) provides authentication and encryption for
ConnectPort LTS products. For more information, see Security features in Digi devices.
Telnet
ConnectPort LTS devices support the following types of telnet connections:
