I see everywhere saying that you cannot use an Ethernet cable for console connections. This makes sense. However, I recently started looking into auto MDI-X and how that applies to patch cables.
Is there a program somewhere that acts as an "emulator" to allow a regular Ethernet to receive from a console port? Even potentially a driver that I could install that acts like a console connection emulator for an Ethernet nic?
Finally, why hasn't a standard like auto MDI-X not already been implemented as a standard for making console ports easier to use?
Probably a dumb question, but if it never gets asked, then I will never know.
