have a lot of detailed data. All the different connections required to use 
the NetCom Server is carried via this single OpenVPN connection in 
TCP mode. When OpenVPN™ is used this way, probably there is no 
need for an extra protection by encryption. An encryption of 
None
 
obviously saves computation resources (i.e. performance) on the 
NetCom and on the Client computer.

It may often happen the NetCom is already installed and tested. In this 
process typically the drivers for Virtual Com Ports are also installed, 
configured and tested. Now the situation may occur where encryption is 
a demand. The change of installation is a rather simple process. 
First install and test the encrypted connection via OpenVPN™, as 
described above. Now the Virtual Com Ports are no longer accessible, 
because this function is blocked on the IP Address used on the 
Ethernet/WLAN connection. It is only available on the IP Address 
provided by OpenVPN™ protocol. 
To the driver installation this is the same situation as if the normal 
IP Address has changed. The configuration requires a change as 
documented in section 6.1.1 above about changed IP Address. Proceed 
as described there, and use the Virtual Com Ports via the encrypted link.
