Virtual Comport Via AES

[barry@zantix.co.uk]

Would it be possible to look into adding the ability to use a Virtual Com port with an air console VIA the AES server? the use case would be as follows.

Laptop with virtual com port configured and connected to AES, remote engineer connects Air Console at remote site which tunnels back to AES. In AES you can then connect a virtual comport to a physical device.

Hi Barry,

Thanks for the feature suggestion - this features has been in the pipeline for some time and we already have parts of this in place in the current AES (however the UI component is not quite finished to expose it to end users)

Users would need to nominate a number of TCP ports on the AES (one for each simultaneous connection required). The UI would then allow a mapping between each of these ports and an active Airconsole serial port on the AES.

Regards,

Daniel
