connection. You should only modify this property if you are an expert system administrator seeking
to fine-tune the server's performance.
Default: 50
A-2-9 server.http.socket.maxThreads
When a request has been issued and is being processed on the Device Manager server, a client
has an active connection on the server. This property specifies the number of active requests that
can be processed at one time on the Device Manager server, not the maximum number of clients.
Once this limit is reached, the next request will be dropped. You should only modify this property if
you are an expert system administrator seeking to fine-tune the server's performance.
Default: 50
A-2-10 server.http.socket.linger
This property determines whether the SO_LINGER socket attribute is enabled for client connections
with the Device Manager server. Setting this flag to its default value means a linger-on-close timeout
of 60 seconds is applied to socket connections. You should only modify this property if you are an
expert system administrator seeking to fine-tune the server's performance.
Default: true
A-2-11 server.http.socket.noDelay
This property determines whether the TCP_NODELAY socket attribute is enabled for connections to
the Device Manager server. Setting this flag at its default value disables the Nagle algorithm for
TCP/IP packets. If the Nagle algorithm is disabled, packets will be sent without delay. You should
only modify this property if you are an expert system administrator seeking to fine-tune the server's
performance.
Default: true
A-2-12 server.http.headers.maxNumber
This property sets the maximum number of HTTP headers permitted for any request submitted to
the Device Manager web server, and helps prevent certain types of denial of service and attempted
buffer overflow attacks by restricting the effect of malicious requests containing a large number of
headers. Under normal conditions, you do not need to change the default value of this property. The
Device Manager server silently ignores any HTTP headers in excess of this number. Runtime errors
are not automatically generated under such circumstances.
Default: 20
A-2-13 server.http.headers.maxLength
This property sets the maximum length permitted for any HTTP header in bytes. Under normal
conditions, you do not need to change the default value of this property. It helps prevent certain
types of denial of service and attempted buffer-overflow attacks by restricting the effect of malicious
requests that contain unusually large header fields. Headers longer than the specified length will be
truncated by the Device Manager server without automatically generating runtime errors.
Default: 1024
A-2-14 server.http.entity.maxLength
This property sets the maximum length of an HTTP request entity in bytes. Under normal conditions,
you do not need to change the default value of this property. It helps prevent certain types of denial
