Socket Listener

This Generic Socket Adapter (Listener) allows the user to specify a Generic Socket based protocol over which data will be received into the eiConsole environment. As with all the components of the eiConsole, the user is presented with a graphical interface with easy to configure screens.

The user is presented with three different tabs: Basic, Advanced and Scenario.

1. Basic – The Port specifies the inbound port to which the external system will connect. The Char Set configuration option specifies the character set that the source system will use to write data through into the eiConsole.

2. Advanced – This tab has the option to initialize the Listener on trigger only.

3. Scenario – This tab allows you to configure the protocol that the Listener uses to accept data.
