| Name
|
Type a TCP interface name.
|
| Description
|
Type a short description for the TCP interface.
|
| Interface ID
|
Type a TCP interface identifier, which is the internal interface name for Substation ES.
|
| Host (URL)
|
Type the URL of TCP and the syntax of it is:
host : port
where
- host is the URL or IP address of the machine on which the Substation ES TCP interface runs.
- port is the TCP port number.
|
| Use TLS Connection
|
If you want to perform client authentication, select this check box.
|
| Host Stack Name
|
Type the IBM stack name to be used with this TCP connection, and a blank value signifies the system default stack.
|
| Trace Level
|
Enter the TCP interface trace level when tracing payloads that pass through the interface; does not duplicate what is set on the system TRCLVL setting but only shows entries in TCP interface.
The valid values are listed as follows:
- Levels 1 to level 3: show information mostly useful to users and TIBCO field staff.
- Levels 4 and 5: show information only useful to engineering staff. The information is detailed and usually specific to internal stacks and control blocks.

Valid values for this field are in the range
1 -
40.
The default value is 2.
|
| WebUI Buffer Size (bytes)
|
Enter the maximum buffer size for messages returned by TCP Interface to WebUI.
Valid values for this field are in the range
8192 -
128000
The default value is 8192.
|
| Expand the TCP Directives panel, the following items are available:
|
| Connections
|
Enter the maximum number of open client connections.
Valid values for this field are in the range
1 -
500.
The default value is 5.
|
| Keep Alive
|
Set whether the keep-alive technique be used to maintain idle connection.
By-default, the check box is selected.
|
| Lazy Retry (sec)
|
Enter the number of seconds between attempts to reconnect to a disconnected member of a multi-host connection.
Valid values for this field are in the range
1 -
600.
The default value is 60.
|
| Timeout (Sec)
|
Enter the timeout value in seconds for the main TCP interface-related event loop.
Valid values for this field are in the range 0 - 600.
The default value is 120.
|
| Chunk Buffers
|
Enter the number of buffers each “chunk of buffers" comprised by the TCP interface’s buffer pool.
Valid values for this field are in the range 1 - 100.
The default value is 32.
|
| Chunk Max Size (bytes)
|
Enter the maximum number of bytes in each “chunk of buffers" comprised by the TCP interface’s buffer pool.
Valid values for this field are in the range 1024 - 4096000.
The default value is 64000.
|
| Host Log File DDN
|
Specify the DD name of the data set to which formatted TCP interface log information is written.
The maximum length is 8 characters.
The default value S7RPRINT will be used if no value is specified.
|
| Expand the SSL Directives panel, the following items are available:
|
| TLS Ring File
|
Specify the Resource Access Control Facility (RACF) key ring name.
It is mandatory if you are using TLS.
|
| TLS Ring Label
|
(Optional) Specify the RACF identity name.
The default certificate is used to make connections if no value is specified.
|
| TLS Cipher
|
(Optional) Specify the IBM cipher codes for encryption (for example: 35363738392F303132).
If specified, it overrides the default cipher specification list.
|
| Client Authentication
|
If you want to perform client authentication, select this check box.
By default, the check box is cleared.
|
| GSK File Name
|
Specify the name of the USS file to which GSK should write its trace; when GSK File Name and TLS Trace Level are specified, the GSK library’s trace functions are enabled.
|
| TLS Trace Level
|
Enter the trace level of the messages produced by TLS APIs.
Valid values for this field are in the range 0 - 63.
The default value is 0.
