Network Configuration Settings

Receivers leverage network configuration to set connection and transport information.

  • endpoint: Configures the address for this network connection. For TCP and UDP networks, the address has the form "host:port". The host must be a literal IP address, or a host name that can be resolved to IP addresses. The port must be a literal port number or a service name. If the host is a literal IPv6 address it must be enclosed in square brackets, as in "[2001:db8::1]:80" or "[fe80::1%zone]:80". The zone specifies the scope of the literal IPv6 address as defined in RFC 4007.
  • transport: Known protocols are "tcp", "tcp4" (IPv4-only), "tcp6" (IPv6-only), "udp", "udp4" (IPv4-only), "udp6" (IPv6-only), "ip", "ip4" (IPv4-only), "ip6" (IPv6-only), "unix", "unixgram", "unixpacket" and "npipe" (Windows named pipes, Windows-only).
  • dialer: Dialer configuration
    • timeout: Dialer timeout is the maximum amount of time a dial will wait for a connect to complete. The default is no timeout.
  • npipe: Windows named pipe configuration (ignored for all other transport types)
    • security_descriptor: A Security Descriptor Definition Language (SDDL) string applied to the named pipe when a listener is created. When empty, Windows applies its default named pipe DACL, which is roughly equivalent to D:P(A;;GA;;;SY)(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;0x12019b;;;WD)(A;;0x12019b;;;AN) — full control for LocalSystem (SY) and Administrators (BA), and read plus limited write for Everyone (WD) and Anonymous Logon (AN).

Note that for TCP receivers only the endpoint configuration setting is required.
