Port Settings
 
Changing a port from 
0
 (which allows the use of any available port) to another port 
allows SecureSuite to function over a firewall or similar security component. 
The 
Server TCP Port Setting
 allows an administrator to specify which TCP 
port the server will use to receive messages from client machines during the ping 
process. 
The 
RPC Port Settings
 allow an administrator to specify which ports will be 
used in order to ensure proper RPC communication.  
Port 1
 specifies which port 
the client machine will use to call CSS functions from the server.  
Port 2
 
specifies which port the client machine will use to call LAS functions from the 
server. 
Timeouts
 
The 
Ping Timeout
 value specifies the amount of time (in seconds) that a client 
machine will wait for a response from the server during the ping process.  For 
example, if this is set at 
10
 seconds, then when the client is attempting to ping the 
server, the client machine will wait for 10 seconds before returning a message 
stating that the server could not be found.  Increasing this setting will allow the 
client machine more time to wait for a response from the server. 
The 
Discovery Timeout
 value specifies how long a client will search for the 
server during the discovery process.  If a domain is a LAN (as opposed to a WAN), 
this value can be as little as 
5
 to 
10
 seconds.  For more geographically abundant 
networks, the default value should be left as is, or increased if you are having 
problems with clients detecting available SecureSuite servers. 
Virtual IP 
When the server is protected by a firewall and one or more client machines are 
outside of the firewall, it may be necessary to specify the server’s IP address in 
order to ensure successful communication.  The 
Virtual IP
 setting allows an 
administrator to specify the IP address.
