How is ENET-232/4 Supported Now that NI-Serial 14.0 has Removed Support for ENET?

Dear smarter people than me, I have been pulling my hair out trying to get my brand new ENET-232/4 units running under the lastest and greatest LabVIEW envirenment (2014). 
After finding that none of the instruction matched what I was seeing in MAX etc, I discovered the following line in the NI-Serial 14.0 driver release notes;
Release Notes
Removed ENET support
NI-Serial 14.0 removes support for all NI Serial ENET Interfaces (ENET-232/2, ENET-232/4, ENET-485/2, and ENET-485/4).
So my question is if NI-Serial no longer supports or configures the ENET-232/4, then what does?  At the moment I just have 5 rather exspensive boxes sitting on the shelf unable to be configured.   
Smart brains please help
Dave

Hi Dave,
As per the NI-Serial 14.0 Readme, as you have already discovered, support for all NI Serial ENET devices has been removed. This is a result of the NI Serial ENET devices being discontinued. As mentioned by Michel_Gauvin, the NI Serial ENET devices can be used without the presence of the NI-Serial driver on the system. Instructions for using NI Serial ENET devices via the NI-VISA driver can be found in this KnowledgeBase. As a note, the ENET device will still need to be configured on a system that has NI-Serial with ENET support. My recommendation would be to stick with NI-Serial 4.1 for ease of use and configuration if you plan on continuing to use the ENET devices.
Michel,
Changes to your LabVIEW code could be required when moving to a 64-bit Windows operating system. One change that may be required is the "VISA resource name" input because MAX will not discover/show the NI Serial ENET device on the 64-bit OS, so if an alias was being used during development it would not be recognized when moved over.
Best,
Jake B.
