Connection Type |
Select Local Area Network. |
Source server |
The name of the connecting server. |
Source domain |
The name of the connecting server's domain. This
field is required only for mail routing. |
Use the port(s) |
The name of the network ports (or protocols) that
the connecting or source server uses to connect to the destination
server. |
Usage priority |
Select one:
- Normal (default) - Select this option if this document defines
the primary path to a server.
- Low - Select this option to define a backup path to a server.
Note: You can force Domino to
use a specific port by specifying it in the connection document and
setting the Usage priority field to Normal. |
Destination server |
The name of the answering server. |
Destination domain |
The name of the answering server's domain. This
field is required only for mail routing. |
Optional network address |
Provide an optional network address to facilitate
attempts to locate the destination server over a TCP/IP connection.
If the field contains no entry, Domino attempts
to determine the address of the destination server from the following
sources: the server's memory cache, an External Domain Network Address
document, or system services that search the local hosts file or DNS
to resolve the name. Enter a fully-qualified host name or IP address
-- for example, HR-E.Renovations.com or 192.22.256.36.
Because IP addresses are subject to change, for ease of management,
it is best to use host names in connection documents. When a host
name is used, if the IP address changes, the connecting server obtains
the updated IP address from the DNS. |
