5.10.2 Set up SDT Serial Ports on console server
Enabling SDT on a port overrides all other Configuration protocols on that port.
To set up RDP (and VNC) forwarding on the console server Serial Port that is connected to the Windows
computer COM port:
1. Select the Serial & Network > Serial Port menu option and click Edit (for the particular Serial
Port that is connected to the Windows computer COM port)
2. On the SDT Settings menu select SDT Mode (which enables port forwarding and SSH
tunneling) and enter a Username and User Password. If you leave the Username and User
Password fields blank, they default to portXX and portXX where XX is the serial port number.
For example, the default username and password for Secure RDP over Port 2 is port02
3. Ensure the console server Common Settings (Baud Rate, Flow Control) are the same as were
set up on the Windows computer COM port and click Apply
4. RDP and VNC forwarding over serial ports are enabled on a Port basis. You can add users
who can have access to these ports or reconfigure user profiles by selecting Serial & Network
> User & Groups menu tag - as described in Chapter 3, Configuring Serial Ports.
5.10.3 Set up SDT Connector to SSH port forward over the console server Serial Port
In the SDT Connector software running on your remote computer specify the gateway IP address of your
console server and a username/password for a user you have setup on the console server that has
access to the desired port.
Next you need to add a New SDT Host. In the Host address, put portxx where xx = the port you are
connecting to. For example, port 3 would have a Host Address of: port03. Click the RDP Service check
box.
