I wonder how to add and configure a new serial COM port in device
manager to be able to map it to a virtual serial port implemented by
myself. I could not find anything neither in DDK nor in MSDN.

Write an INF for your virtual serial port driver in the Ports class,
and then create a root-enumerated devnode for it with devcon.  The
port will appear in Device Manager after that.

Ok thanks.

Can you be more precise? What is root-enumarated devode in devcon?

Thanks
