Configuring the TCP-IP socket settings

If you want a DataMiner Agent to forward information to third-party applications via TCP/IP sockets, you have to configure the socket settings in the DataMiner.xml file, which is located in the DMA's C:\Skyline DataMiner\ directory.

Note

From DataMiner 10.0.11 onwards, if an AlarmSocket or PollSocket is used, the forwarded data will be encoded as UTF-8, while previously it was encoded using the ANSI code page of the DMA. The data sent to the PollSocket must also be encoded using UTF-8.
