Other important variables to consider are:
 IP Filter, enables the Source IP option below to block an IP address from accessing the
COM port.
 Source IP , specifies the device’s Source IP which will be transmitting data to our Server.
In other words, our Server will only allow data from this IP to flow (hence its own name
implies Source IP); only one source is allowed.
 Maximum Connection, the number of devices/clients (max. of 4 clients), to be served is
set in this section.
 Response Behavior, in which we will have as options:
 Request & Response Mode, it determines how the device will proceed when it
receives requests from connected hosts. Under this mode, the port will hold requests
from all other connected hosts until the serial device replies or the Response Interval
timeout takes into effect to discard it; however, unrequested data sent from the serial
device would be forwarded to all connected hosts.
 Reply to requester only, the port will reply to the connected host who
requested the data only.
 Reply to all, a reply is sent to all connected hosts.
 Transparent mode, the port will forward requests from all connected hosts to the
serial device immediately and reply to all connected hosts once it receives data from
the serial device.
Note: LINK1 is associated with COM1; LINK2 is associated with COM2, and so on.
