You may need to place your GSM modem on a location away from your SysManSMS Server PC Hardware if:

- Security prevent you from having a GSM device inside your computer room

How does it work? Remote RS-232 Serial Ports, or often called RS-232 over IP, has two parts involved. The physical part is a box with the electronics and connectors to be placed on the location where you like to locate your GSM modem device. It comes with a power supply, which you may connect to a UPS or a standard 220V outlet. |
| |
The other part is a software utility to setup the box, and the driver to create the Windows COM port. After the installation you will have a COM port number to bring into your SysManSMS Server Setup Configuration. |
| |
You may use the Remote RS-232 Serial Port from multiple machines like VMware, but only one SysManSMS Server can use it at one specific time. Device sharing is not supported by SysManSMS Server. |
| |
What if LAN breaks? Even if it is not a common situation, your LAN may go down. If this happen with a GSM modem device with the SysManSMS Watchdog connected, you will receive an alert SMS message. If you uses a GSM modem device without a Watchdog, you will still be notified in the Windows Event log of the SysManSMS Server, and optional even receive e-mail alerts. You may also use the SysManSMS dual Server option, where the operative server will alert if the second server has a problem. |
