When the Viewer PC is directly connected to the console server (i.e. locally or remotely via VPN or dial-in connection) and the

VNC Host computer is serially connected to the console server, enter the IP address of the console server unit with the TCP

port that the SDT tunnel will use. The TCP port will be 7900 plus the physical serial port number. For example, with TCP ports

7901 to 7948, all trafﬁc directed to port 79xx on the console server is tunneled through to port 5900 on the PPP connection

on serial Port xx (e.g., for a Windows Viewer PC using UltraVNC connecting to a VNC Server, which is attached to Port 1 on a

console server located 192.168.0.1).

• You can then establish the VNC connection by simply activating the VNC Viewer software on the Viewer PC and entering the

password.

6.10 Using SDT to IP Connect to Hosts that are Serially Attached to

the Gateway

Network (IP) protocols like RDP, VNC and HTTP can also be used for connecting to the host’s serially connected devices

through their COM port to the console server. To do this:

• Establish a PPP connection between the host and the gateway.

• Set up Secure Tunneling - Ports on the console server.

• Conﬁgure SDT Connector to use the appropriate network protocol to access IP consoles on the host devices that are

attached to the Console server serial ports.
