Back to Top Server Preference Fields

Session Timeout (minutes) Allows Server Administrator to time out if there is no user input for a specified number of minutes. Users whose sessions time out must log in again to continue. Selecting Disable does not set a limit on the amount of time Server Administrator can remain open without terminating.
HTTPS Port The number of the secure port that you want Server Administrator to use. The default port for Server Administrator is 1311.
IP Address to Bind to By default the Web server listens to incoming browser requests on all IP addresses. However, for increased security you can specify a single IP address or, all IP addresses. An administrator can specify a loopback adapter address--an IP address to ensure that data sent out is delivered back to the source (without going across the network). For example, specifying 127.0.0.1 for IPv4 and ::1 or 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 or 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001 for IPv6 disables remote login for Server Administrator and ensures that it is accessed from the local workstation only.
Mail To Allows you to configure the default E-mail address.
SMTP Server Name (or IP Address) Name of your Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server. For example, smtp1.us.companyname.com. You can provide SMTP server name in the following forms: IPv4 or IPv6 or server name.
DNS Suffix for SMTP Server The domain name system (DNS) suffix of your mail server, where smtp1.us.companyname.com is the mail server, and the DNS suffix is us.companyname.com.
Command Log Size Specifies the maximum command log file size in MB. You can find the command log in its default directory under the filename omcmdlog.xml.
Support Link The URL for the business entity that supports your server.
Custom Delimiter Specifies the character used to separate the data fields in the files created using the Export button. The ; character is the default delimiter. Other options are !, ,, @, #, $, ^, *, ~, ? , and |.
SSL Encryption Allows the Administrator or the Power User to set the encryption levels for sessions between a web browser and the Server Administrator web server. Select Auto Negotiate for auto selection of encryption level based on web browser settings. Select 128-bit or higher for 128 bit or higher encryption levels.
