W&T The W&T USB Port Redirector
5.1 Overview
The W&T USB Port Redirector, which is implemented as a
Windows core driver, provides a virtual USB host controller
which behaves with respect to the Windows system like a local
standard controller.
Configuration of the core driver is registry-based using the
configuration tool which is started using the link Configure USB
Port Redirector. In addition, the configuration tool automatically
searches the local subnet for W&T USB-Servers and enters them
in a list with any connected USB devices.

Additional and possibly more recent information about
the individual configuration options can be found in the
online help for the W&T USB Port Redirector.
5.1.1 Port numbers
To communicate with the USB devices the W&T USB Port
Redirector uses the UsbServerPort configured in the USB-Ser-
ver. The factory set name is TCP/32032.
Any installed security components (software or hardware
firewall, security suites etc.) must allow communication over this
port number without delay. This is now however absolutely
necessary for the UDP port 8513 used for automatic
inventorying. Inserting the USB-Servers can be done in this case
