TYPE clause
This clause specifies the network protocol to use for synchronization. The default protocol is tcpip.
ADDRESS clause
This clause specifies protocol-options in the form keyword=value, separated by semicolons. Which settings you supply depends on the communication protocol you are using (TCP/IP, TLS, HTTP,
or HTTPS).
OPTION clause
The OPTION clause allows you to set extended options using option=value in a comma-separated list.
The values for each option cannot contain equal signs or semicolons. The database server accepts any option that you enter
without checking for its validity. Therefore, if you misspell an option or enter an invalid value, no error message appears
until you run the dbmlsync command to perform synchronization.
Options set for a synchronization user can be overridden in individual subscriptions or on the dbmlsync command line.
The network-protocol, protocol-options, and options can be set in several places.
This statement causes options and other information to be stored in the SQL Anywhere ISYSSYNC system table. Anyone with DBA
authority for the database can view the information, which could include passwords and encryption certificates. To avoid this
potential security issue, you can specify the information on the dbmlsync command line.
The following example creates a MobiLink user named SSinger, who synchronizes over TCP/IP with a server computer named mlserver.mycompany.com
using the password Sam. The use of a password in the user definition is not secure.
CREATE SYNCHRONIZATION USER SSinger
TYPE http
ADDRESS 'host=mlserver.mycompany.com'
OPTION MobiLinkPwd='Sam';
