Com Port Redirector
The Com Port Redirector application allows Microsoft Windows-based PCs to access
modems or other serial devices connected to a Secure Console Server as if those serial
devices were local Comm ports. The Redirector creates virtual comm ports and
intercepts communications from existing device software, then redirects those
communications over the IP network to the serial ports on your SCS. The Com Port
Redirector works in the background.
