Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Options
It is possible to configure a Blue Heat/Net port to behave as a PPP connection. This enables you
to run network protocols over a serial link. This link can be a direct serial connection using a
null modem cable, or a modem link via telephone, cell or satellite line. PPP connections are
often used in applications that require remote monitoring. You can set the Blue Heat/Net to
behave as either the dial out or “client” side (PPP Call) or the answering or “server” side (PPP
Answer). The Blue Heat/Net can act as both PPP server and client simultaneously if more than
one serial port is used.
