Providing an identifiable name for the listener helps identify it in the Configuration Outline list.

Listeners monitor specific port numbers. Set the port number that the listener will monitor.

Sets the protocol to handle incoming traffic. The default value is HTTP/1.1.

This is the IP address of the server hosting the port to which you are listening. If available, you can also select it from the drop-down list.

When lookups are enabled, the server will search for and report servers by their DNS name. If lookups are not used only the IP address is returned.

Lengthy uploads may decrease server performance or be the result of an error. Select whether uploads are subject to timeouts.

File compression may increase transfer rates, but lower processing speeds. By default, compression is set to On and will compress only text data. If set to Off, no compression is used on files and if compression is set to Force, compression is used for all files.

This option allows a user with the System Administrator role, in certain instances, to specify the header data of a browser for which files will never be compressed.

The number of seconds this connection will remain open before closing if no requests are sent. The default is 60 seconds.

The maximum number of threads created by the connection for request processing on this Listener. This determines the maximum number of simultaneous requests that can be handled. The default is 200 threads.

This is the number of threads that will be created when this listener is first started. The default is four (4) threads.Note: Changing the Thread values can alter performance. Too few Maximum Threads and transfers may lag, but too many threads may limit performance of other applications. Modify these values to obtain the optimal performance for your configuration requirements.

When a User makes a connection to Managed File Transfer via HTTP or HTTPS, the server replies back to the client with the name and version of the server in one of the headers. The Server Header field can be used to customize the server information that is returned. This setting should only be specified when attempting to hide the true identity of the server for security purposes.

The Proxy Name attribute can be used when Managed File Transfer is run behind a proxy server. This attribute modifies the value returned to web applications that call the request.getServerName() method, which is often used to construct absolute URLs for redirects. Without configuring this attribute, the value returned would reflect the server name on which the connection from the proxy server was received, rather than the server name to whom the client directed the original request.

The Proxy Port attribute can be used when Managed File Transfer is run behind a proxy server. This attribute modifies the value returned to web applications that call the request.getServerPort() method, which is often used to construct absolute URLs for redirects. Without configuring this attribute, the value returned would reflect the server port on which the connection from the proxy server was received, rather than the server port to whom the client directed the original request.
