pserver set command
The pserver set command associates a perimeter server configuration with an operational member on a local machine. The operational member must be enabled.
Usage notes
To change the configuration of a perimeter server, run the command with the new configuration information.
When you run this command, the configuration of the system is recorded before and after you run the command. This information is saved in the install_dir\Members\logs directory.
Attention: The configuration information includes
user information, but this information is intended mainly for troubleshooting
and not security auditing.

Syntax
execute pserver set [ne_host=<near_end_host>] [ne_port=<near_end_port>] [ps_host=<perimeter_server_host>] [ps_port=<perimeter_server_port>]Option descriptions
- near_end_host
- The near end host name or IP address. Optional. Must be specified if ps_host and ps_port are not specified. This is the interface used for the cluster side of the connection to the perimeter server. Specify it only if your machine has multiple interfaces and not all are able to connect to the DMZ where the remote perimeter server is installed. It defaults to "*" indicating that any interface defined on the node may be used for the node end of the connection.
- near_end_port
- The near end port number for this connection. Optional. The value must be between 0 and 65535. Defaults to 0 if not specified and the cluster selects any available port for the connection. This is the port that the node listens on for a connection from the perimeter server. Must be specified if ps_host and ps_port are not specified.
- perimeter_server_host
- The DNS name or IP address of a perimeter server in the DMZ that the perimeter server is installed on. Optional. Must be specified if near_end_port is not greater than 0. Indicates that the operational member connects to the remote perimeter server on this host.
- perimeter_server_port
- The perimeter server port number for the connection. Optional. The value must be between 1 and 65535. This is the port that the external perimeter server monitors for connections. This is the listening port you provided when the perimeter server was installed in the DMZ.
Examples
- Example:
- Because perimeter_server_host and perimeter_server_port are
not specified, this command indicates the operational member listens
on the interface megva02.your.domain.com and port 45000 for a connection
initiated by the remote perimeter server.
execute pserver set ne_host=megva02.your.domain.com ne_port=45000 - Example:
- This command indicates the operational member initiates the connection
to the remote perimeter server on remoteps1.greenco.com on port 34500.
Because the near_end_host and near_end_port are not specified, the
member uses any interface configured on the node and any available
port to make this connection.
execute pserver set ps_host=remoteps1.greenco.com ps_port=34500 - Example:
- This command indicates the operational member initiates the connection
to the remote perimeter server on remoteps1.greenco.com on port 34500.
The operational member uses the interface megva04.your.domain.com
and port 64000 on the node to make this connection.
execute pserver set ne_host=megva04.your.domain.com ne_port=64000 ps_host=remoteps1.greenco.com ps_port=34500
