Serial gateway

The serial gateway feature enables data from the serial port attached device to be
routed to Ethernet/mobile network (serial over IP) and vice versa. Serial gateway
processes the transmitted data transparently and does not alter it any way except for
buffering it for transmission. Because of the transparent communication, any
protocols can be used in actual communication between nodes.Serial gateway
configuration depends on used protocols.
