Chapter 2: Overview 2.3.3 Paired Mode Paired Mode is also called serial tunneling. In this mode, any two serial devices that can communicate with a serial link will be able to communicate using two Serial Servers and the LAN. Two Serial Servers are connected to a network, one configured as a TCP or UDP client and the other as a TCP/UDP server. When setting up the server the remote IP address section must contain the address of the client. This will allow the client’s IP address to pass the IP
