Virtual Com port on Xen server - Windows 2008 R2
Hello, I have a Jtech pager system I need to connect to a Virtual (Oracle) Micros System.
When I bought the pager system from Jtech, they stated that we would need a program called Alert Manager, and that we could connect the " jTech iStation" via ip. Once I got everything in, it turns out Alert Manager will only communicate over serial.
The istation has both lan and serial connections.
There are no physical serial ports on the servers.
We are running Micros on Xen Server v. 7.2.0.5022 64 bit - vm is Windows 2008R2
Micros version is 5.2 (Build 5.2.0005.1327)
There may be a simple solution I am not seeing, my first thought was a virtual serial port, but I am kind of noobin on how to implement.
None of the companies that I purchased the stuff from seem to be able to help.

I may have to do that, but the iStation does have a lan port already, is there no way to create tcp-serial without a device server?
