Hi everyone...
We are looking for an Ethernet-to-RS232 device that we can use in a
manner similar to the Agilent GPIB gateway, meaning using ASYN to send
messages out over our network and then out to RS232 devices.
Is anyone else doing this? Have a product that they've had good results
with or any to avoid?

Question: are you asking about terminal servers?
We have a bunch of Emulex terminal servers in use, for years already,
and with hardly any problems (occasional port hangups + ports losing
a setting or so, mostly after power failures).
