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.
