Hyperterminal Configuration (TCP/IP)In this example, I am going to use Hyperterminal to access a telnet daemon that is running on a Linux virtual machine on my network. For Cisco devices this is typically 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control. HyperTerminal automatically detects the COM port and allows the connection settings (speed/data bits/stop bits/parity/flow control) to be set and the connected device to be accessed. To access devices (such as Cisco routers and switches) and other devices that use a serial connection, I use a USB-to-Serial converter and use device manager to determine which COM port is emulated by the USB converter. Hyperterminal Configuration (USB/RS-232)HyperTerminal automatically detects COM ports, attempts to communicate over modems, and allows TCP/IP connections to be initiated using the telnet protocol.


Two files are required for Hyperterminal to function in later Windows releases from the Windows XP installation:Ĭopy these files to the same directory on the target Windows 7/2008 R2 system and Hyperterminal can easily be launched by running the Hypertrm.exe executable. Getting HyperTerminal in Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 requires access to an installation of Windows XP (I used a recent ISO of Windows XP SP3). Hyperterminal SetupHyperTerminal was not released in any Windows version after Windows XP/Windows Server 2003. For TCP/IP connections and modem connections, the most common target is a telnet daemon set up on a Windows or Linux system in order to give access to a text based application or console. Hyperterminal communicates over serial connections (such as RS-232), via a dial up modem, or via the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Internet Protocol (IP). What is Hyperterminal?Hyperterminal is an application that allows terminal emulation in Windows for some types of devices.
