RFC2217 also enables the serial port to be tunneled to a remote 
ECS0016 client gateway, so two serial port devices can be transparently 
interconnect over a network.
 
Accumulation Period
By default, once a connection has been established for a particular serial 
port (such as a RFC2217 redirection or Telnet connection to a remote 
computer) then any incoming characters on that port are forwarded over 
the network on a character by character basis. The accumulation period 
changes this by specifying a period of time that incoming characters will 
be collected before then being sent as a packet over the network.
Escape Character (esc)
This enables you to change the character used for sending escape char-
acters. The default is

SDT Mode
This Secure Tunneling setting allows port forwarding of RDP, VNC, HTPP, 
HTTPS, SSH, Telnet and other LAN protocols through to computers which 
are locally connected to the ECS0016 by their serial COM port. However 
such port forwarding requires a PPP link to be set up over this serial port.
Power Strip Mode
This mode configures the selected serial port to communicate with an 
intelligent serial controlled power strip.
Terminal Server Mode
Select 
Terminal Server Mode and the Terminal Type (vt220, vt102, 
vt100, Linux or ANSI) to enable a tty login on the selected serial port.
 
The getty will then configure the port and wait for a connection to be 
made. An active connection on a serial device is usually indicated by the
