Legal Values
Node_Name
Provide name for Node.
Up to 32 alphanumeric
characters.
IP_Address
Destination IP Address.
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Host_Name*
Specify the host name of the remote device. If
the Host_Name is used in place of an
IP_Address, the FieldServer will attempt to
resolve the IP_Address before polling remote
device. If both IP_Address and Host_Name are
used, the FieldServer will attempt to resolve the
host name to get the latest IP_Address to use.
Otherwise the configured IP_Address will be
used. The FieldServer will try to resolve the host
name again before starting the node recovery
process to get latest IP_Address. If the host
name can't be resolved, the last known
IP_address is used.
Any valid host name.
Response_End_Time*
Specify time duration in seconds that must
elapse before a response is complete. This
parameter is useful while communicating to a
server that sends responses in chunks and there
is a large delay ( > 2s) between chunks.
