Communicate with arduino via rs232

Hello, I want to use rs232 to communicate with my arduino. Until now, I used the Arduino built-in usb interface without a problem by rosserial_python pkg. I have a TTL converter to RS232 that is connectet to my arduino on TX,RX pins. I don't know how to move on from here?Is rosserial_python should works also in that case? I need to use another pkg for that case? Tnx Aviad

Isn't the "Arduino built-in usb interface" essentially just serial-over-usb? A proper serial port will work just the same.

Yes? Will it be the same with the TTL converter like I used with the usb port of the Arduino? Just typing rosrun rosserial_python serial_node dev/tty***?
