SocketServer Overview
SocketServer is the name of the TCP/IP socket web page that is integrated in the
firmware that comes pre-installed on your DeviceMaster.
If you want to use any of the ports as COM or tty ports, you should first install and
configure the NS-Link device driver for your operating system, and then configure the
ports that you want to use as TCP/IP sockets. When you install an NS-Link device driver,
an NS-Link version of SocketServer loads on the DeviceMaster. See Device Driver
Installation on Page 39 for device driver installation procedures.
The main SocketServer web page provides access to configure:
• Socket port characteristics for:
-Serial
- TCP connection
- UDP connection
See SocketServer Architecture
on Page 50 for more information about socket port
support.
• Network settings (after initial configuration)
• Email notification services
• RFC1006 (ISO over TCP)
Note: For socket service configuration procedures, see the web page Help system or the
PortVision Plus Help system.
