I need to expose a sensitive serial port to a remote site through IP.
The protocol used on the serial line is text based with some control
bytes and totally unauthenticated. Are there any applicances recommended
that can perform the following:

- Encrypting the IP connection (Preferably SSL)
- Provide for authentication (Preferably outside the protocol sphere,
like SSL client certificates).
- Convert the data received on the IP end and send it out on the serial
line, and vice versa.
