Specify the network address used by the listener to accept incoming client requests. The format is:

protocol:ip-address:port

where:

If this network address is not unique in the repository, this may cause listener startup problems.

Legacy Micro Focus Application Format

Check this if you want the listener to handle non-standard TCP/IP flows, for example, for Fileshare clients.

Top

Initial Status

Choose a status from the list. The possible statuses are:

Blocked The listener is started when the server starts, but it does not accept client requests. One use for this status is where you want to allow requests from only one client, perhaps for debugging purposes. You could amend the client code to ignore a status of "Blocked"and allow requests through.
Disabled The listener is not started when the server starts and is therefore not available to any client
Stopped The listener is available but stopped. This is the default. To start a listener use the Edit Listener page. When you add a stopped listener to a server that has a status of "Started", the server will attempt to start the listener immediately. If you add a stopped listener to a server that has a status of "Stopped", when the server is started it will attempt to start the listener.
