Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.14 Configuration File Reference

Attributes

The following table describes attributes for the LS element.

Table 2–13 LS attributes

Attribute  

Default  

Description  

id

None 

(optional) The socket family type. A socket family type cannot begin with a number. 

When you create a secure listen socket in the server.xml file, security must be turned on in magnus.conf. When you create a secure listen socket in the Server Manager, security is automatically turned on globally in magnus.conf.

ip

Any 

Specifies the IP address of the listen socket. The value can be in dotted-pair or IPv6 notation. The value can also be any for INADDR_ANY.

port

None 

Port number on which to create the listen socket. Legal values are 1 - 65535. On UNIX, creating sockets that listen on ports 1 - 1024 requires superuser privileges. Configuring an SSL listen socket to listen on port 443 is recommended. Two different IP addresses can’t use the same port.

security

false

(optional) Determines whether the listen socket runs SSL. Valid values are on, off, yes, no, 1, 0, true, false. You can turn SSL2 or SSL3 on or off and set ciphers using an SSLPARAMS subelement for this listen socket.

The Security setting in the magnus.conf file globally enables or disables SSL by making certificates available to the server instance. Therefore, Security in magnus.conf must be turned on or security in server.xml does not work. For more information, see Chapter 3, Syntax and Use of the magnus.conf File.

acceptorthreads

1

(optional) Number of acceptor threads for the listener. The recommended value is the number of processors in the machine. Valid values are 1 - 1024.

family

None 

(optional) The socket family type. Valid values are inet, inet6, and nca. Use the value inet6 for IPv6 listen sockets. When using the value of inet6, IPv4 addresses will be prefixed with ::ffff: in the log file. Specify nca to make use of the Solaris Network Cache and Accelerator.

blocking

false

(optional) Determines whether the listen socket and the accepted socket are put into blocking mode. Use of blocking mode may improve benchmark scores. Valid values are on, off, yes, no, 1, 0, true, false.

servername

None 

Tells the server what to put in the host name section of any URLs it sends to the client. This affects URL values that the server automatically generates. This value does not affect the URLs for directories and files stored in the server. This name should be the alias name if your server uses an alias. 

If you append a colon and port number, that port will be used in URLs the server sends to the client.
