Yeah that's basically it. You can often assign
aliases so that e.g.
`CONNECT RAID` executes a Telnet to a specific IP/DNS name, and many
support setting up a default or automatic connection so that as soon as
the terminal autobauds it just connects to whatever the default is.
Devices like the Lantronix UDS series also allow you
to add a virtual
COM port to your OS, so that you see /dev/ttyXX in *NIX (COMx in
Windows) and when you connect to it, you're really going out over
Ethernet to the serial device.
Jonathan,
When I looked at the manual for the Lantronix UDS1100 I did not see any mention of it
being able to be used as Telnet client. However, if it can function as you say that would
be perfect.
