The View and manage TotalAccess connection types page enables you to view, edit, and remove existing connection types configured for the TotalAccess server and Axeda® IDM Agents. To bind connection types to assets that are running the Axeda IDM Agents, use the Model wizard of the Axeda Configuration application. The Connection Bindings step allows you to select the connection type, Initiate property, and State property for the model.
Note: If you cannot see the page, consult your Platform administrator. This page does NOT apply to assets running Axeda® Gateway and Axeda® Connector Agents.
For each connection type, the table displays the following information:
o Type Name -- The name of the connection type. The name is a link that you can select to view and/or edit the details for this connection type.
o Description -- Additional information about the connection type.
o Attributes -- The settings for the On Demand and Multi-Connect attributes. The attribute is enabled if the typeface is black; it is disabled if the typeface is dimmed.
§ On Demand -- When this attribute is enabled, an automatic request to publish the connection will be made for this connection type,
§ Multi-Connect -- When this attribute is enabled, it indicates that the connection type requires a series of short-lived, potentially concurrent network connections rather than a single long-lived network connection. An example of a multi-connect protocol is HTTP (web browsing).
You can view and edit existing connection types by clicking the name
of the connection type in the table. In addition, you can delete existing
connection types. Click the title of a procedure to display it; click
the title again to hide the procedure:
