Listen

Specifies the port on which the server is to listen for connections from clients.

For example, tcp://localhost:7222.

If you are enabling SSL, for example:

ssl://localhost:7222

You can use multiple listen entries if you have computers with multiple interfaces.

If localhost is specified, or if the server name is not present, then the server uses every available interface. For example:

  • tcp://7222
  • ssl://7243

You can use an IP address instead of a host name. For example:

tcp://192.168.10.107:7222

When specifying an IPv6 address, use square brackets around the address specification. For example:

tcp://[2001:cafe::107]:7222

Classic Configuration

The listen address is set using the listen property in the tibemsd.conf file. For example:

listen=tcp://localhost:7222

If you have computers with multiple interfaces, specify multiple listen entries. For example:

listen=tcp://localhost:7222
listen=tcp://localhost:7224

Administration Tool

This property cannot be set using the administration tool.
