The Network Transport Editor window allows you to view, edit, or create the transport addresses at which a server accepts client connections. This window displays the name of the server entry for the address and allows you to configure the following items:
Transport type – specifies the protocol and interface for the address.
Address information – depending on the transport type, different address components are required. The following sections discuss address formats in detail.
The address information for a TCP/IP entry consists of a host name (or IP address) and a port number (entered as a decimal number). For tli tcp-formatted interfaces entries, the host’s IP address and the port number are converted to the 16-byte hexadecimal representation required for tli tcp-formatted interfaces entries.
Adaptive Server does not support the TLI interface in
threaded mode.
In interfaces entries, use tli tcp for:
All pre-10.0 clients on platforms that use tli-formatted interfaces entries
Adaptive Server or Replication Server version 11.0.x or earlier on platforms that use tli- formatted interfaces entries
Use tcp for other clients and servers.
To indicate a TCP/IP address, choose tcp or tli tcp from the Transport Type menu.
