Connection settings

 

This dialog depends on the selected transport type.

 

TCP / UDP

When sending TCP / UDP telegrams, it is possible to provide these with a fixed sender IP address and port numbers, which are specified in the field "Source IP / Port". If the checkbox for activating a fixed IP / Port combination "Use fixed source IP / port" is deactivated, a random port number, which is assigned by the operating system, is selected as the sender port for each transmitted telegram.

 

Under "Destination IP / Port", enter the IP address and the port number to which the telegrams are to be sent.

 

Only when using UDP:

If the "Use fixed source IP / port" checkbox is activated, a multicast address can be registered to this network adapter. To do this, activate the "Use multicast" field and enter a multicast-compliant IP address including the port. (E.g. 224.0.20.12: 1234

Url: here the server address of the web server is entered starting with http: //.

When using HTTP, a Web proxy server can act as a man-in-the-middle. The URL of this server can be specified here in the preface of http: //. If no proxy server is to be used, the check box "Proxy active" should be deactivated. If your proxy requires authentication, you can enable the "Use Authentication" check box and enter your user data (username and password) in the appropriate text boxes.
