NHPS Ports
The following tables show the fields and values to specify when you configure an NHPS port (interface) in Command Central.
Connection Basics
Field
Description
Enabled
Whether to enable or disable the port.
Adapter alias
An alias for the port. Each Universal Messaging server instance can have an associated alias in the form of host:port. The alias is used to tell other servers how to contact this server, if this server is behind a NAT or a Proxy Server. This alias is not the same as the Universal Messaging assigned interface alias.
Number
Required. A unique port number.
Backlog
The size of the Internet Protocol (IP) socket queue.
Bind address
The IP address to which to bind this port, if your machine has multiple IP addresses and you want the port to use this specific address.
You cannot change this attribute after you create the port.
Autostart interface
Whether to automatically start this port when you start the Universal Messaging server instance.
Advertise interface
Allow the Universal Messaging server instance to send information about this port to the client.
Allow for inter-realm
Allow port communication between two or more Universal Messaging server instances. For example, allow communication between clusters, or joins.
Allow client connections
Allow clients to connect to the port.
Enable NIO
Enable NIO (Network Input/Output) on the port.
Enable HTTP 1.1
Enable the usage of HTTP 1.1 protocol on the port.
Auth time
The time in milliseconds (ms) that the Universal Messaging server instance waits for the client to complete the authentication process. The default value is 10000.
Accept threads
The number of threads processing the accepted sockets.
Select threads
The number of threads allocated for selection.
Send buffer size
The size of the socket send buffer.
Receive buffer size
The size of the socket receive buffer.
JavaScript Interface Properties
Set these properties to configure communication with web clients using JavaScript.
Field
Description
Enable JavaScript
Enale JavaScript client connections using this port.
Enable WebSockets
Toggle the ability for clients to communicate with the server using the HTML WebSocket Protocol on this interface.
Enable GZIP for long poll
Enable GZIP compression on HTTP long poll connections.
CORS allow credentials
Allow Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) credentials.
CORS allowed origins
A comma-separated list of the host names (and IP addresses if they appear in URLs) of the servers that host your JavaScript application's HTML files.
Important:
If this property is not set correctly, many communication drivers available to JavaScript clients may fail.
Long poll active delay
The time between clients sending long poll requests to the server in milliseconds. Reducing this may reduce latency but will increase both client and server memory, CPU, and network usage.
GZIP minimum threshold
The minimum message size is bytes required for the server to begin compressing data sent to long poll clients.
Long poll idle delay
The time between clients sending long poll when the client is in idle mode.
Custom Headers
Custom headers are paired with Header Key/Value pairs that are sent in the HTTP packets to the client.
Security Configuration
Field
Description
Client authentication
Whether or not Universal Messaging requires client certificates for all requests. Select:
*None if Universal Messaging does not require client certificates for all requests.
*REQUIRE_CERTIFICATE if you want Universal Messaging to require client certificates for all requests.

Keystore server location
Location of the keystore file.
Keystore password
Password required to access the SSL certificate in the keystore file.
Keystore key password
Password required to access a specific private key in the keystore file.
Truststore type
File type of the truststore file. Universal Messaging supports the JKS and PKCS12 file types. The default file type is PKCS12.
Truststore server location
Location of the truststore file.
Truststore password
Password required to access the SSL certificate in the truststore file.
