Ad9914 Eval Board Device Control via TCP/IP

Question

Hello, 
 I am looking to see if there is a recommended route for sending commands to the microcontroller of the AD9914 Eval board via TCP/IP from the host PC which is then converted to USB/serial via an ethernet to USB converter. In the past, we have controlled this device with direct USB connection and utilizing python/WinDLL to load in the adiddseval.dll to send commands. I was wondering if there is a recommended approach for the above communication setup? 
 We have also considered bypassing the microcontroller and directly communicating with the board via serial, which is the approach we may take if there is no route recommended for the ethernet to usb communication setup. 
 Thanks in advance!

Hi cfol , 
 Correct me if I'm wrong but is this your path? 
 AD9914 Eval Microcontroller -> Send Commands -> TCP/IP HOST PC -> USB Serial -> Ethernet -> USB converter? I believe this is a complex one and I have no recommendations for this specific route as of the moment. 
 I suppose the best way would be communications via serial. 
 All the best, 
 Jules)
