If I enable Character Response on a CoBos device server by

• setting bit 4 in Connect Mode (e.g. setting Connect Mode to 10) in Setup Mode
• or by choosing Char Response as the Connect Response under Common Options on the Connection Settings page of the web manager

I see this behavior:

• If I make outgoing connections from the serial port (e.g. by using Manual Connection), I get single character responses as documented in Table 7-5 in the UDS1100 User Guide, http://www.lantronix.com/pdf/UDS1100_UG.pdf.
• However, if I open an incoming connection to port 10001, I get a Character Response like CI172.20.192.178, where 172.20.192.178 is the IP address of the host that opened the connection.

Why is this?

This is normal behavior.

For incoming connections, Character Response sends

C when a connection is succesfully established
D when a connection is terminated
N when a connection cannot be established

For incoming connections the Character Responses are:

CI<ip address> when a connecton is established from a host at <ip address>
D when the connection is terminated.
