Yup. The driver mounts the remote ports as local com ports through a utility called NI Ports. The com numbers will show up as regular com ports (COM5-8 for example). Then, when LabVIEW opens the com port, our driver opens the remote port. The only real difference is that there will be some additional latency between reads and writes (due to network conditions, etc.). So you may need to add some time to your read timeouts.
