Tunnel Receiver configuration settings
A Tunnel Receiver can take the following configuration settings.
Enter the following settings to configure your Tunnel Receiver:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
Tunnel Receiver Information | |
Tunnel Name | Enter a name for the tunnel receiver. The name must not include any spaces or special characters (such as *, /, or ?). The only characters allowed in the name are numbers, letters, dashes (-), and underscores (_). |
Logging Level | Select how much debugging and auditing information you want the Validation server logs to display:
|
Log Rotation Interval | Select the frequency at which you want to create a new log file. |
Number of files to keep | From the drop-down list, select the number of old log files that must be stored in the Validation server. |
Local IP | Enter the IP address (in IPV4 format) that the tunnel receiver uses to listen for incoming calls from the tunnel forwarder. For example, 192.168.142.100. |
TCP Port | The connection protocol used to connect the tunnel forwarder and tunnel receiver is TCP. Enter the port number that you want the tunnel receiver to use to listen for incoming calls from the tunnel forwarder. Symantec recommends that you use the default port number, 8080. If you change the port number, choose any unused port number between 1 and 65535. For a non-Windows environment, the TCP port number must be 1025 or higher. |
Enable SSL | Select whether or not to enable a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) connection between this tunnel forwarder and the tunnel receiver to which it will be sending data. If you select Yes , you must select an SSL certificate from the selected choices. If you have not added an SSL certificate, you must add one. |
Validation Server Connection | |
Validation Server IP | Enter the IP address of the Validation server (in IPV4 format) that the tunnel receiver uses. For example, 192.168.142.150. |
Server Port | Enter the port number for the Validation server that the tunnel receiver uses. Symantec recommends that you use the default port number 1812. If you change the port number, choose any unused port number between 1 and 65535. |
UDP Port Range | Enter the range of port numbers (between 1024-65,535) that can be used for UDP connections. Choose the default range (40,000-49,999) to minimize the chance of port conflicts. |
Max # of Open UDP Ports | Enter a number (between 20 and 1000) to set the maximum number of ports that can be open at one time. |
UDP Port Idle Time | A tunnel receiver caches validation requests (for up to a specified amount of time) if there are no ports available to send requests to a Validation server. A tunnel receiver initially searches for ports until it finds one that has been unavailable for longer than the UDP Port Idle Time . Enter the amount of time (in seconds) that the tunnel receiver initially uses as a benchmark for opening an unavailable port. |
UDP Port Minimum Idle | If a tunnel receiver cannot find an available port after checking every port against the UDP Port Idle Time , it begins a second search with a lower benchmark. A tunnel receiver continues searching for ports until it finds one that has been unavailable for longer than the UDP Port Minimum Idle Tim e. Enter the amount of time (in seconds) that the tunnel receiver uses as a second benchmark to check for port availability. |
Tunnel Timeout | Set the maximum allowed length of time (in seconds) for TCP connection inactivity. |
