Real COM Port Management — Linux Commands

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 are not required to specify any parameters on the command line.

They make mapping/unmapping choices based on questions generated as the

program runs.

With Fast mode, users must specify parameters on the command line to

indicate their mapping/unmapping choices — as shown in the following

examples:

1. Mapping (input should be all within one line):

./AtenVPMapping map(1) PCPort(0-255) TargetIP(a.b.c.d)

TargetPort(1-48) NumberofMapping(1-48)

2. Unmapping (input should be all within one line):

./AtenVPMapping unmap(0) PCPort(0-255) NumberofUnMapping(1-48)

Up to 256 ports can be mapped on a Linux system.

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.
