Target Server Environment Communication Styles

The Comm. Bridge supports 3 distinct styles of communications to target servers using the TCP/IP Sockets protocol. The three styles are configurable through check boxes on the Sockets Server Configuration – Details dialog. The state of the check boxes depends on the target server environment requirements.

All three use the same features of the underlying TCP/IP protocol. Two of the styles differ in the length of the life span of the connection, the third in how the Common Format Buffer (CFB) data is packaged.
