Setting | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|
Host | The IP address or hostname to which the TCP collector connects. If the host is connected the port must also be connected. If left empty, the TCP collector connects to all IP-addresses available in the system.
| ||
Port | The port number from which the data is received. Make sure the port is not used by other applications.
| ||
Allow Multiple Connections | Select this checkbox to allow several TCP/IP connections simultaneously. If cleared, only one connection is allowed. | ||
Number of Connections Allowed | If Allow Multiple Connections is selected, enter a number between 2 and 65000 to specify the number of allowed connections. | ||
Send Response | Select this checkbox to have the collector send a response back to the source. If Allow Multiple Connections is selected, the collector expects a UDR extended with the default TCPIPUDR as a reply. If the checkbox is cleared, it expects a bytearray.
 For a description of the differences between single or multiple connections, see A TCP/IP Example. | ||
Send TCPIPStateUDR | Select this checkbox to track the connection state of the client and have the collection agent send a UDR indicating the status of the client connection each time it changes state. See TCPIPStateUDR in TCP/IP Related UDR Types.
