|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Host | The IP address or hostname to which the TCP collector will bindconnects. If the host is bound connected the port must also be boundconnected. If left empty, the TCP collector binds connects to all IP-addresses available on 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 | If enabled, Select this checkbox to allow several TCP/IP connections are allowed simultaneously. If disabledcleared, only one at a time connection is allowed. | |||||
Number of Connections Allowed | If Allow Multiple Connections is enabled, the maximum number of simultaneous connections is specified as selected, enter a number between 2 and 65000 to specify the number of allowed connections. | |||||
Send Response | If enabled, Select this checkbox to have the collector will be able to send a response back to the source. If If Allow Multiple Connections is enabled is selected, the collector expects a UDR extended with the default TCPIPUDR as a reply. If disabledthe checkbox is cleared, it expects a bytearray.

| Send TCPIPStateUDR | If enabled, you can Select this checkbox to track the connection state of the client . When this option is selected and have the collection agent sends send a udr UDR indicating the status of the client connection each time it changes state. See TCPIPStateUDR in TCP/IP Related UDR Types.

Decoder
...
List holding available decoders introduced via the Ultra Format Editor. The decoders are named according to the following syntax:
<decoder> (<module>)
The option MZ Format Tagged UDRs indicate that the expected UDRs are stored in one of the built-in formats. If the compressed format is used, the decoder will automatically detect this. Select this option to make the Tagged UDR Type list accessible for configuration. If this option is selected, the Tagged UDR Type list will be enabled.

Tagged UDR Type
...
List of available internal UDR formats stored in the Ultra and Code servers. The formats are named according to the following syntax:
<internal> (<module>)
If the decoder is to reprocess UDRs of an internal format, the Decoder MZ format tagged UDRs has to be selected to enable this list. Once enabled, the internal format may be selected.
...
Full Decode
If enabled, the UDR will be fully decoded before inserted into the workflow. This may have a negative impact on performance since all fields may not be accessed in the workflow, making decoding of all fields unnecessary.
