20 Expanded services of the Com-Server

In the preceding sections we explained all the standard processes that are

implemented in the Com-Server. These client/server processes cover the

majority of the application possibilities for the Com-Server. Implementati-

on of more complex scenarios often requires however that the software be

individually adapted.

For users who make use of socket programming, the Com-Server offers

additional functions beyond pure data transfer.

The control port and its data structure

Status requests and configuration of the serial port

Resetting the Com-Server

Uploading/downloading of the configuration data

Inventory taking per UDP

SNMP management
