Screen Descriptions
Type
Indicates the server type. After you define a server, you cannot change its
type; instead, you must delete the server and define a new one.
Description
(Optional) Provides a description of this server. This description is for your use
only. It is not used elsewhere in BT Studio.
Server Properties: Hostnames, Ports
The Hostnames, Ports tab of the Server Properties window specifies one or
more hostnames and related ports for the server. For Web servers, you can
either specify hostnames and ports or URL substrings to monitor. For all other
server types, specify one or more hostnames and ports.

To access this tab, select View, Servers, double- click the server in the list,
and click the Hostnames, Ports tab.

To add a hostname to the list, click <Click here to add a new hostname>.
Enter the hostname and press Enter.

BT Studio displays the default port number for this type of server. If your
site uses a different port number for that hostname, click the port number
to change it. If the application uses multiple ports for client-server
communications, you can specify 0 (zero) to indicate that Application
Response should monitor application activity to this host on any port.
NOTE: If you specify multiple hostnames for a server, the hostnames
must reside on the same system (for example, because it has two or more
network interface cards). You cannot specify multiple systems for one
server.

To modify a hostname in the list, click the hostname, modify it, and click
Apply.

To delete a hostname from the list, click the hostname and click Delete.
Server Properties: URL Substrings
For a Web server, you can specify either a hostname and port to monitor for
application activity or URL substrings. (A URL substring is part of a universal
resource locator.) For Web traffic, the initial Web server may redirect the
traffic to another Web server. For this reason, it may be more useful (and
easier) to use URL substrings than hostnames/ports for Web servers. The URL
Substrings tab of the Server Properties window specifies one or more URL
substrings for servers of type Web. Application Response then monitors all
Web traffic whose URL contains a match to the URL substrings specified here.
