HP-UX Host Intrusion Detection System Version 4.2 Administration Guide

IDS_CONNECT_TIMEOUT
The timeout value in seconds for the agent to complete a network
connection with the administration system.
IDS_READ_TIMEOUT
The timeout value in seconds for the agent to complete a network
read operation from the administration system.
IDS_WRITE_TIMEOUT
The timeout value in seconds for the agent to complete a network
write operation to the administration system.
IDS_SSL_TIMEOUT
The timeout value in seconds for the agent to complete a Secure
Sockets Layer handshake with the administration system.
REMOTEHOST
The IP address or host name associated with the administration
system's network interface card. This entry is set to the host name
passed to the IDS_importAgentKeys script when the script is
run. See “Configuring a Multihomed Administration System”
(page 37) and “Setting Up HP-UX HIDS Secure Communications”
(page 29).
On a multihomed administration system (one with two or more
IP addresses), this is the address through which idsagent should
communicate with idsgui on the administration system. If a host
name is specified, it must resolve to a unique IP address for the
administration system. When specifying IP address, IPv4 addresses
are specified in dotted decimal notation, and IPv6 addresses are
specified in colon notation. If the INTERFACE variable is set in
idsgui, REMOTEHOST should have the same value.
