Description

Bridges serial ports to TCP or telnet connections so hardware devices can be accessed over a network. Administrators use it for remote consoles, embedded boards, lab equipment, and serial device management.

This can expose physical devices or administrative consoles if configured broadly. Restrict listening addresses, firewall access, authentication, and serial permissions before enabling it on a network.

How to run

ser2net.service
