  • SNMP MIB-II for network management

 

Overview

Standard TCP/IP Protocols and Choice of Operation Modes

NPort® 5230 device servers can operate in TCP Server, TCP Client, or UDP operation mode, ensuring compatibility with software based on a standard network API (Winsock, BSD Sockets).

Real COM/TTY Drivers for Existing Software

With the Real COM/TTY drivers that are provided with each NPort®, software designed for communication with COM/TTY ports can be instantly and seamlessly integrated into a TCP/IP network. This is a excellent "no fuss" way to preserve your software investment and enjoy the benefits of networking your serial devices.

Control Remote Serial Devices with TCP/IP or Traditional COM/TTY Port

By specifying the NPort® 5230's IP address and port number, a network sockets API can obtain access to the attached serial device over the network, from any host computer that supports TCP/IP. For legacy Windows or Linux software that is COM or TTY-based, Moxa's COM/TTY drivers provide a seamless way of operating over the network.
