raw
enables the port and transfers
all data as-is between the port and the long.
rawlp
enables the port and transfers all input data
to device, device is open without any termios setting. It allow to use /dev/lpX devices and
printers connected to them.
telnet
enables the port and runs the telnet protocol on the port to
set up telnet parameters. This is most useful for using telnet.
timeout
The time (in seconds) before the port will be disconnected if there is no activity on it. A zero
value disables this funciton.
device

displays the given banner when a user connects to the port.
banner

banner
text
The text to display as the banner. This may contain normal “C" escape strings, and it may also
contain, \d for the device name, \p for the TCP port number, and \s for the serial port
parameters (eg 9600N81) of the given connection.
Blank lines and lines starting with „#‟ are ignored.
Security
ser2net uses the tcp wrappers interface to implement host-based security.
See
hosts_access(5)
for a description of the file setup. Two daemons are used by ser2net,
“ser2net” is for the data ports and “ser2net-control” is for the control ports.
Signals
SIGHUP
If ser2net receives a SIGHUP, it will reread it configuration file and make the appropriate
changes. If an inuse port is changed or deleted, the actual change will not occur until the port
