4.5.1 HTTPget using Port 1000
You can setup and read the information from the iServer by using the HTTPget program.
The following program can be used to read data from the iServer firmware by using TCP
port
1000
. The command string is sent to this TCP port, then the response can be read
back from the same socket.
The HTTPget.exe file is used to setup and read information from the iServer. This file will
be automatically installed when you install the MailNotifier software available on our
website and CD.
In order to use port
1000
, in the Configuration page of the iServer you must set
“Number of Connections” to 0. In this case the port number will change to 1000
regardless of what the port number already is.
Notes on using
HTTPget
:
The HTTPget.exe program is installed to the windows directory (usually c:\winnt or
c:\windows) when installing the Mail Notifier software.
