Table 16-20:HTTP Remote Hosts Table Parameter Descriptions
Parameter Description
General
'Index'
rest-servers
[HTTPRemoteHosts_
RemoteHostindex]
Defines an index number for the new table row.
Note:
■ Each row must be configured with a unique index.
■ The parameter is mandatory.
'Name'
[HTTPRemoteHosts_
Name]
Defines a descriptive name, which is used when associating the row
in other tables.
The valid value is a string of up to 40 characters. By default, no value
is defined.
Note:
■ Each row must be configured with a unique name.
■ The parameter is mandatory.
Transport
'Address'
rest-address
[HTTPRemoteHosts_
Address]
Defines the address (IP address or FQDN) of the remote host.
The valid value is a string of up to 80 characters.
Note:
■ An IPv6 address can only be configured if the interface is a
CONTROL type.
■ If the address is an FQDN and the DNS resolution results in
multiple IP addresses, the device device attempts to establish
multiple connections (sessions) for each IP address. Only the first
10 resolved IP addresses are used regardless of the number of
hosts.
■ FQDN resolution is also performed (immediately) when
connection is subsequently "closed" (by timeout or by the remote
host) and connections are updated accordingly. In addition, the
device periodically (every 15 minutes) performs DNS name
resolution to ensure that the list of resolved IP addresses has not
changed. If a change is detected, the device updates its' list of IP
addresses and re-establishes connections accordingly.
■ In addition to multiple HTTP sessions, the device establishes
multiple (TCP) connections per session, thereby enhancing data
exchange capabilities with the host.
'Port'
rest-port
[HTTPRemoteHosts_
Port]
Defines the port of the host.
The valid value is 0 to 65535. The default is 80.
'Interface'

[HTTPRemoteHosts_
