Configuration Management
Once an AnywhereUSB is configured and running, configuration-management tasks may need to
be periodically performed, such as:
• Upgrading the AnywhereUSB firmware
• Upgrading the AnywhereUSB driver
• Backing up the AnywhereUSB configuration
• Factory resetting the AnywhereUSB
• Rebooting the AnywhereUSB
RealPort Software
The AnywhereUSB TS44 and AnywhereUSB/14 use the patented RealPort COM/TTY port
redirection for Microsoft Windows environments. RealPort software provides a virtual connection
to serial devices, no matter where they reside on the network. The software is installed directly on
the host PC and allows applications to talk to devices across a network as though the devices
were directly attached to the host. Actually, the devices are connected to a Digi device somewhere
on the network.
RealPort is unique among COM port re-directors because it is the only implementation that
allows multiple connections to multiple ports over a single TCP/IP connection. Other
implementations require a separate TCP/IP connection for each serial port. Unique features also
include full hardware and software flow control, as well as tunable latency and throughput.
Encrypted RealPort
AnywhereUSB/14 and AnywhereUSB TS 44 supports the patent-pending RealPort software with
encryption. Encrypted RealPort offers a secure Ethernet connection between the COM or TTY
port and a device server or terminal server. Encryption prevents internal and external snooping
of data across the network by encapsulating the TCP/IP packets in a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
connection and encrypting the data using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), one of the latest,
most efficient security algorithms.
Digi's RealPort with encryption driver has earned Microsoft's Windows Hardware Quality Lab
(WHQL) certification.
Drivers are available for a wide range of operating systems. It is ideal for financial, retail/point-of-
sale, government or any application requiring enhanced security to protect sensitive information.
Access to Encrypted RealPort services can be enabled or disabled.
