I need to control some lab equipment with several usb based controllers (mostly serial) and was wondering if it can be done over IP, there is such a thing called usbip, but couldn't find what 'server' is needed. all the boxes I found are not cheep, but worse, only provide binaries for windows, or linux.
I'm not entirely sure about your setup - you write usb based controllers - and then mostly serial...
I know it is not strictly speaking usb over ip - but did you look at RFC 2217 ?
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2217 There are several projects supporting RFC 2217: http://ser2net.sourceforge.net/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/sercd/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/cyclades-serial/ "ser2net" and "sredird" are in FreeBSD ports: http://www.freshports.org/comms/ser2net/ http://www.freshports.org/comms/sredird/ /Uffe _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
