SQL Connection
Connect to | If you are using Windows Authentication Mode, type in the Windows user |
database | name (FQDN if required) as defined within your Windows Server |
| environment. If you selected SQL Authentication mode you will need to |
| provide the user name you configured for this user in the SQL server |
| configuration. If the SQL server does not have a login account set for this |
| user, authentication will fail and the user will receive an error message. |
Authentication | By default, PerleVIEW will install “Use Windows Authentication Mode”. |
| Use the SQL Authentication method if on installation of your SQL server |
| software, you selected mixed mode or SQL server authentication. |
| Values: Windows Authentication |
| SQL Authentication |
| Default: Windows Authentication |

Username | If you are using Windows Authentication Mode, type in the Windows user |
| name (FQDN if required) as defined within your Windows Server |

Network
Protocol
TCP Port
Network Packet
Connect Timeout
SQL Server Resolution Protocol will be used to determine how to connect to the selected SQL instance. If the SQL instance is local then the connection will use “Shared Memory”. If the SQL instance selected is remote then TCP/IP will be used and SQL Server Resolution Protocol (UDP port 1434) to obtain the connection information (i.e the port number) from the remote instance. If the connection fails and the SQL instance is remote, this may be due to the inability to communicate with the SQL server. This could be caused by a firewall or the SQL Server Resolution Protocol service may not be running on the SQL server. If this is the case, you will need to use the TCP option and configure the TCP port which the SQL is listening on.
Default: Auto
If your SQL server is remote to PerleVIEW, this will be the TCP port to send and receive messages between PerleVIEW and the SQL Server.
Values: 1-65535
Default: 1433
This is the size of the TCP packet that PerleVIEW will use to communicate to the SQL server.
Values:
Default: 4096 bytes
The time that PerleVIEW will wait for a connection to the SQL server before PerleVIEW times out.
Values: 0 - never times out
Max: 30000 seconds
Default: 15 second
