Configuring the Application Server

Configure the application server by specifying the following values for the AppServer parameter in the [JadeAppServer] section of the JADE initialization file, as follows.

AppServer = [transport-type,]interface

The values for the transport-type variable relevant to this feature can be TcpIP, TcpIPv4, TcpIPv6, or TcpIPAny. The transport-type literal value is case-insensitive.

If you do not specify a transport-type, the default value is TcpIP, which is a synonym for TcpIPV4. TcpIPv4 provides IP version 4 connections only. TcpIPv6 provides IP version 6 connections only. TcpIPAny supports IP version 6 or IP version 4 connections. Depending on your requirements, you can configure a single application server to use TcpIPAny, or you can set up two application servers so that one supports TcpIPV4 and the other TcpIPV6.

You can specify the interface value as a host name or an IP address. If you use an IP address, the address must be in an appropriate format for the selected transport-type value.

Because of the way that JADE parses the command line, enclose the parameter values in quote marks if you specify ApplicationServer="transport-type,interface" on the command line.
