FTL Server Interactions

• FTL Server Connect Call
  Every application program must connect as a client to an FTL server. The realm connect call identifies the client to the FTL server, and receives the realm definition from the realm service.
• Operation of the Realm Connect Call
  When a client program contacts an FTL server, the realm connect call uses these algorithms:
• Trust Properties of the Realm Connect Method
  In an enterprise with TLS security, client applications must trust the FTL server. Properties of the realm connect method specify the behavior of this interaction.
• Reconnect Properties of the Realm Connect Method
  If the connect call cannot initially connect to the FTL server, it waits a period and tries again. The following properties characterize this reconnect behavior.
• Update and Disable
  After the initial connect call, the client and server remain in contact.
