Create COM port forwarding over the network
I am trying to create a Windows driver that allows a standard TCP / IP socket to be used as a COM port. I am aware of a number of existing products that do exactly this, but cannot find any reference material on how to actually do it! I understand some Windows driver concepts (bus / function / filter drivers, driver stacks, etc.), and I tried to read a book about WDF, but I'm still not 100% sure where I start if there is no actual auxiliary hardware ... If anyone has any links / pointers to help it would be greatly appreciated.

Take a look at the com0com project . They also offer the com2tcp driver. Since this is open source, you can check out the sources and get an idea of how to do this.
This is not really a driver, but an application, so it may be less useful in your task to learn something about driver development, but in any case it can be a good start for some technical insight.
