RealPort Settings

Use the RealPort Configuration page to configuring the RealPort application. The available settings are as follows:

• RealPort Settings:

  • Enable Keep-Alives: Enables the sending of RealPort keep-alives. RealPort protocol sends keep-alive messages approximately every 10 seconds to connected devices indicating the connection is still alive. RealPort keep-alives are different from TCP keep-alives, which are done at the TCP layer.

    Note that RealPort keep-alives generate additional traffic which may be undesirable in situations where traffic is measured for billing purposes.

  • Enable Exclusive Mode: Exclusive mode allows a single connection from any one RealPort client ID. If you enable this setting and a subsequent connection occurs that has the same source IP as an existing connection, the existing connection is forcibly reset under the assumption that it is stale.
• Device Initiated RealPort Settings:
  • Index: An empty list means there are no configured device-initiated RealPort connections.
  • Host or IP Address: The IP address or DNS name of the client to connect to.
  • Port: The network port to connect to on the client. The default port for VNC servers is 8771.
  • Retry Time: The amount of time in seconds to wait before reattempting a failed connection to the client.
