net.slp.traceDrop
A boolean controlling printing of details when a SLP message is dropped for any reason. Default is
false.
net.slp.traceReg
A boolean controlling dumps of all registered services upon registration and deregistration. If true,
the contents of the DA or SA server are dumped after a registration or deregistration occurs. Default
is false.
Network Configuration Properties
The properties in this section allow various network configuration properties to be set.
net.slp.isBroadcastOnly
A boolean indicating if broadcast should be used instead of multicast. This setting is seldom necessary
since SLP will automatically use broadcast if multicast is unavailable. Default is false.
net.slp.passiveDADetection
A boolean indicating whether passive DA detection should be used. Default is true.
net.slp.multicastTTL
A positive integer less than or equal to 255, giving the multicast TTL. Default is 255.
net.slp.DAActiveDiscoveryInterval
A 16 bit positive integer giving the number of seconds between DA active discovery queries. Default is
900 seconds (15 minutes). If the property is set to zero, active discovery is turned off. This is useful
when the DAs available are explicitly restricted to those obtained from DHCP or the
net.slp.DAAddresses
property.
net.slp.multicastMaximumWait
A 32 bit integer giving the maximum amount of time to perform multicast, in milliseconds. Default is
15000 ms (15 sec).
net.slp.multicastTimeouts
Currently this parameter value is not being used. Currently multicast timeouts are generated inter-
nally based on the net.slp.multicastMaximumWait parameter.
net.slp.DADiscoveryTimeouts
Currently this parameter value is not being used. Currently multicast timeouts are generated inter-
nally based on the net.slp.multicastMaximumWait parameter.
net.slp.datagramTimeouts
Currently this parameter value is not being used. Currently multicast timeouts are generated inter-
nally based on the net.slp.unicastMaximumWait parameter.
net.slp.randomWaitBound
A 32 bit integer giving the maximum value for all random wait parameters, in milliseconds. Default
is 1000 ms (1 second).
net.slp.MTU
A 16 bit integer giving the network packet MTU, in bytes. This is the maximum size of any datagram
to send, but the implementation might receive a larger datagram. The maximum size includes IP,
and UDP or TCP headers. Default is 1400 bytes.
net.slp.interfaces
Value-list of strings giving the IP addresses of network interfaces on which the DA or SA should listen
on port 427 for multicast, unicast UDP, and TCP messages. The default is to use all the network
interfaces.
An example is:
195.42.42.42,195.42.142.1,195.42.120.1
The example machine has three interfaces on which the DA should listen.
Note that since this property only takes IP addresses, it will need to be changed if the network is
renumbered.
SA Configuration
This section describes the configuration properties for the SA. These properties are typically set program-
matically by the SA, since they are specific to each SA.
