Network Address

Use the Network Address page to provide the TCP/IP address, IPX/SPX^TM address, protocol, and port information used by the GroupWise^® Internet Agent.

TCP/IP Address
Click Edit (the pencil button), then provide either the IP address or the DNS hostname of the server where the Internet Agent runs. For an IPV6 server, you must specify the hostname.

IPX/SPX Address
Click Edit (the pencil button), then provide the IPX/SPX network and node information of the server where the Internet Agent runs. This is required only if you want to enable network management and monitoring programs to use IPX/SPX to send SNMP requests to the Internet Agent.

Bind Exclusively to TCP/IP Address
This option binds this Internet Agent to the specified IP address when the server where it runs uses multiple IP addresses. It is enabled by default. The specified IP address is associated with all ports used by the Internet Agent (message transfer, HTTP, SMTP, and so on). Without an exclusive bind, the Internet Agent binds to all IP addresses available on the server.

Message Transfer
In the Port field, specify the port number on which the Internet Agent will listen for messages from the MTA for the domain. The default is 7102. The port number must not be in use by another program on the server.

In the SSL field, select Required if you want the Internet Agent to use a secure connection to the MTA. The MTA must also be enabled to use SSL.

HTTP
In the Port field, specify the port number the Internet Agent will use to communicate status information to your Web browser, providing an Internet Agent Web console for use with GroupWise Monitor. The port number must not be in use by another program on the server.

In the SSL field, select Required if you want the Internet Agent to use a secure connection for the Internet Agent Web console. The Web browser must also be enabled to use SSL.

SMTP
In the Port field, specify the port number on which the Internet Agent will listen for inbound messages from other SMTP hosts. The default is 25. The port number must not be in use by another program on the server.

In the SSL field, select from the following options to configure the Internet Agent's use of a secure connection to other SMTP hosts. The SMTP host must also be enabled to use SSL or TLS (Transport Layer Security).

• Disabled: The Internet Agent does not support SSL connections.
• Enabled: The other SMPT host determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used with an SSL-enabled Internet Agent.
• Required: The Internet Agent forces SSL connections. Non-SSL connections are denied.

POP
In the Port field, specify the port number on which the Internet Agent will listen for requests from Post Office Protocol (POP) clients that are not using secure SSL connections. The default is 110. For clients that are using SSL connections, specify the port number in the SSL Port field. The default for SSL is 995. The port number must not be in use by another program on the server.

In the SSL field, select from the following options to configure the Internet Agent's use of secure connections to POP clients.

• Disabled: The Internet Agent does not support SSL connections. It only listens for non-SSL connections on port 110.
• Enabled: The POP client determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used with an SSL-enabled Internet Agent. An SSL-enabled Internet Agent allows SSL connections on port 995 and non-SSL connections on port 110.
• Required: The Internet Agent forces SSL connections on port 995 and port 110. Non-SSL connections are denied.

IMAP
In the Port field, specify the port number on which the Internet Agent will listen for requests from Internet Message Application Protocol (IMAP) clients that are not using secure SSL connections. The default is 143. For clients that are using SSL connections, specify the port number in the SSL Port field. The default for SSL is 993. The port number must not be in use by another program on the server.

In the SSL field, select from the following options to configure the Internet Agent's use of secure connections to IMAP clients.

• Disabled: The Internet Agent does not support SSL connections. It only listens for non-SSL connections on port 143.
• Enabled: The IMAP client determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used with an SSL-enabled Internet Agent. An SSL-enabled Internet Agent allows SSL connections on port 993 and non-SSL connections on port 143.
• Required: The Internet Agent forces SSL connections on port 993 and port 143. Non-SSL connections are denied.

LDAP
In the Port field, specify the port number on which the Internet Agent will listen for requests for directory information from LDAP clients using Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). The default is 389 for a non-SSL connection and 636 for an SSL connection. The port number must not be in use by another program on the server.

In the SSL field, select from the following options to configure the Internet Agent's use of secure connections to LDAP clients.

• Disabled: The Internet Agent does not support SSL connections. It only listens for non-SSL connections on the specified port.
• Enabled: The LDAP client determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used with an SSL-enabled Internet Agent. An SSL-enabled Internet Agent allows SSL connections on port 636 and non-SSL connections on port 389.
• Required: The Internet Agent forces SSL connections on port 389 and 636. Non-SSL connections are denied.
